Looks wise they have no presence what so ever IMO. I ended up following a 197 today and never appreciate how well they look on the road, awesome looking machines the mk3 RSI clips IMO.
Still love to try a fezzie though.
Nay bad, my sister has a new ZS on order, they come with a 1L eco boost, 120 bhp apparently?? I'm insured on it through her work (NHS), so no doubt will get a drive.
Still cant get over the nose, its nearly as bad as a 200 in the facelift department, (ok not that bad) The phase 1 Fiesta is so...
With 197's its less is more imo, there's too much bolt on tat for it............ visible exhaust tips, cup spoilers and that tacky 'areo kit' thing. Looks too fussy imo
Awesome, a man after my own heart with all that cabling. I have the same ocd traits i feel!
I currently work in the electronic security industry, and do plenty of high end properties that with home automation. I feel its the way it will all go eventually (with regards to alarms/cctv/access etc...
Imo they are either beaten to death, or the trip is never reset.
Empty the tank to fumes, then brim it, reset the trip. Most will AVERAGE a good 27 + imo
The are shite with stop start short trips.
My x2 197's (first was an early 06 plate, current is a 08 plate cup) average around 28/30 mpg. Thats living in the sticks on average 20 mile round trip on a/b roads.
The MPG is no worse than a EP3. Similar performance/size.
Nice base mate
ITG panel filter. Give a wee bit more induction noise, drop in and forget it. Look at some H&R springs, give a nice drop for a reasonable price. I'd also look at a remap, even on a stock set up, cold start behaviour is much improved. I've got a fastchip one on mine. Rate it tbh...
Good man!
Exactly. Think 172 /182. The cupped 200's have a quicker rack which is nice, harder suspension 1st/2nd/3rd are a wee bit shorter to help it launch. Other than that, meh imo. The 200 fan bois will tell you different, but there are good and bad ones like all RS Clios
Nope, still in the shed, debating what to do. I need to get a quote first really. You cant get hold of them at the mo, ktec wont have any for 6 weeks iirc. Shame that ;)
Gay, 200 diffusers are pony. 197 ones look wider, thus better ;)
Yeah they ill straight swap into a MK3 no probs, however they will might bring up the airbag light as the 197 units have an extra one over your standard seats. Nothing Clip cant sort though
My GW 197 has been a bit negated lately so going to give it a a bit of love in the next few weeks. Looking around I see this tough coat is rated on light colour finishes.
Im not as massively anal as some on here. To decontaminate, I would usually wash, rinse, tardis, rinse, iron x, rinse...
Gaytek do an open ik. At the moment it's the best thing since sliced bread. In a few months it'll be worthless as they will probably crumble to bits like most of their own brand tat?
