Only people in the know notice these things.
I reckon see an EDC on the road and it'll look fine. IMO the front end is a massive improvement over the non cohesive mess the 200 was.
Hmmmm dunno, I think the facelifts will be every 3years or so now with the way the industry is. Think the meggy only had one real revision in its life so far??
197 springs have blue/green dots
197 cup springs are marked with blue/orange dots
200 springs marked with blue/yellow dots
200 cup springs marked with blue/violet markings
thats the only real way to tell as lots of cars have the calipers painted aftermarket
Itll cream it, fancy being over taken by a 5 door seat!?
In fact, can CS have a whip round to punt a new Clio up against Dare? I'd love to see his face!
Clio 4 is a tweaked Clio 3 underneath.
One thing i do wonder though, does is still run the double axis 'perfo up' setup from the 197/200/Megane??
Also, i presume the Juke runs this engine with a standard manual.........??
Stunning that, love them!
Need to do mine, my GW 197 is covered in tar, I've booked a few days off next week hoping to do a full decontamination, but as I have no garage and looking outside, it looks a none starter :(
How do you rate this C4 trim restorer? I gather its like a semi permanent...
Cheers chaps
I know the 197 doesnt get a whole lot of love on here (yet ;))
Just had its 5 year love from Birchdown, so thats full cambelt kit, water pump, gearbox oil refresh, handbrake cables........... then if that wanst enough, its been treated to X2 new conti 3's
Been an expensive month!
Well, not my drive ;)
Car was looking sorry for itself over the last day or two, so cleared off the snow and went for quick spin
some epic drifts
Still love the wee thing nearly three years down the line
:)
Dont be so sure. All Mk3 RS's can suffer with bad gearboxes, just look on the Renaultsport forum. Infact, the 200 seems more problematic from what i've seen.
