But why does it have to be quicker?
You could argue that a 172 isnt that much quicker than a Williams which is nearly 20 years old. Its kept the same pace on purpose. The Clio and maybe the MINI have had the same sort of figures since the early 2000's... if you want quicker, you go up the...
But they're not slow? They are on par....
Few years ago in my albi I had a wee tussel with a 172 cup and had the legs on it. Wasnt trying?? He came on here and said fair play the 197 had the legs on it. (ill dig out the link after if i remember) Granted, they are more thirsty, I average 30mpg...
down, not a fan of spacers (fitted them to the Abli in the pic above) hero spoiler mmmmmmmmm, depends what colour, not been brave enough on any of mine yet :/
The 197 just works imo, it was how the Mk3 was supposed to look, not some half arsed nose slapped on it to 'freshen' it up....
Its a good looking car with a few tweeks imo :)
Join being the bumper/headligt, still looks an arse three years later
Pinched in
Its like an optical illusion of where the bumper sides/bottom of the headlights meet the black insert..... it seems to make the car have less presence?
Good buy, wanted this for my mrs, but she was scared of running a 2L! (she's only had 1.6L cars)
I loved it, just something about a MK2 imo
Check out my handy work on the headlights btw ;)

Nah, you'll see in the flesh it looks right, trust me
Reasonably aggressive front,
Gay froggy thing,
;)
f**k me its dated it over night!

overnight parts from Japan
I think it'll look ace on the road, i think it looks more aggressive at front than the cut and shut 200....
Shame there's no manual, i could cope with a 5 door. Must try one :)
Flol!!
Op were you driving down the A41 towards Chester today around quarter to ten this morning?
I had a Cup following me up to Broxton roundabout, OMP exhaust??
Looked well :)
Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news
it won't be far off, bumper, diffuser and exhuast arrangements are as you see. There will be different wheels, colours etc maybe even brembos if we are lucky, but imo what you're seeing is pretty close tbh
It doesn't have cornering headlamps, they have the round projectors in them. It could be the RS monitor its hard to tell from the pics. If it says 'Renaultsport' on start up it has it. (Its little pointless on a clio tbh so no biggie)
Make sure tyres aren't ditchfinder 2000's, make a big...
I've had a fuel pump on my 197 go, not unheard of.... it just cut out after some hero driving, had to tow it home!
Over on 197net there seems to be a few different faults relating to fuel pump issues. Luckily mine just died so the fault was pretty easy to trace.
