    Thoughts on this 197? (R27)

    Sorry Steven I thought it might have been you! It was my motor and Cro left with it tonight. He made an offer I couldn't refuse and cash in hand I couldn't afford to turn him down! Sorry mate I hope you find one in the future :)

    Been offered a 197 as part ex/swap.

    I still have my R27 and drive my 350z daily.. You'll be disappointed with the interior and the power delivery.. the seating position is also awful compared to the 350z.. test drive the Clio and make your own mind up but as soon as the Clio sells I don't think I'll miss it if I'm honest :(

    200's in the snow....

    my 197 was great in the snow. Left TC on if you get stuck just nail it and tc will slowly pull you out of the snow. Couldn't fault it tbh. Going to leave the 350z in the drive if it snows this year.

    VMware - where to start?

    DK I disagree ESXi is a full product but these advanced features are licence enabled features depending on what you pay for. You have a full basic hypervisor with ESXi however the add-ons like vMotion/ha/vcenter etc are licensed with the pay for version So it is not rubbish as you are...

    VMware - where to start?

    Oh also I work for a Citrix platinum partner (Ms gold partner, VMware partner and EMC partner as well) and I'm just pointing out we sell VMware. I'm not saying Ctx Xenserver is bad - it lacks features but it is a good platform. Its much better than Hyper-V IMO but falls short of VMware. The next...

    VMware - where to start?

    You can download ESXi free from VMware (full edition) you just get no support. All VMware is moving to ESXi in 5.0 (which is out now). Its very easy but if building a whitebox or using old hardware make the components are on the hcl or the actual server is listed. ESXi is 700MB because it only...

    clio 182, buy or walk away?

    Ya have a look around buddy. Not saying its a scrapper at all btw just being careful :). I had blinkers on when I got my R27 and ignored the holes in the rear spoiler lip where the cup spoiler had been etc.. not saying it was a bad decision to buy it but I wish I'd noticed :(

    Bit of advice from fellow non-sport owners please.

    I owned a 1.2 TCe and only got around 28-32 MPG unless driving like a granny which I got 35-38MPG least in the R27 when I get 22-25MPG its easy to justify..

    197 buyer's guide?

    R27 comes with recaros. Last on registered in early 08. Recaros are very hard and wear on the bolsters but when flying down a twisty road they are worth it. You have mentioned the gearbox already. The cup chassis can be very hard if you are not uesd to hard suspension/stiff chassic. Its not...
