I bought some from reno they are the luxury mats with clio written on the bottom right of the drivers side. they are good colour and hard wearing but the velcro strips on the seat side of the mat are crap and the mat keeps slipping under the pedals. so buy something with a bit rougher underside...
the bp ultimate, it does say in the filler flap 95 or 98, now its been updated by reno to say always 98, but at that price for vpower do you think the bp will be a safe compromise if its better than tesco 99
With a tesco petrol station just down the road from me ive been running the 197 on its super unleaded 99RON for around 3 months now. I dont know whether I was kidding myslef but it did seem to pull better at low revs. Does anyone rate or hate this fuel, bearing in mind its 99.9p a litre.
I suppose it comes down to what colour 197 you had. Black surrounds on black car imo didnt look right. Plus ive been driving for 10 years round bends at night and never once thought "hmmm I wish my lights turned into the bend!!" lol I'll admit defeat in 3years if it takes ages to sell because I...
Ive been using it for a few months now. i'll put it on straight after a polish. While the car paint is cool apply with clean microfibre, use plenty, then wait as long as you like. I saw no difference between waiting 40 minutes or 2 hours. It gave good result every time...
Its identical to all the 197's mate, theres no visible options that you can have I dont think, apart from alloys. I really like mine, miss my 172 but its a different car completely. Ive seen the chrome tailpipes on the renault website that I think i might look into. bit pricey though at £65.

I must take some decent pictures of it.i only have these 2. And its still that shiny as well! what do u reckon?
I bought one with only smokers pack, tints and metallic. smokers pack and metallic for resale. the problems i had with my old climate control on 172 and the amount of times I cursed the lights for coming on under bridges and the auto wipers drove me mad, so personal choice I wasnt bothered. I...
Apologies if someone has already posted this,it should have only gone on their site today http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/carreviews/longtermtests/210136/renaultsport_clio.html
It says its "non run" is that the case? Because sprays I have used dry ok but when it rains and I go for a drive I get a layer of gunk up the tailgate from where its been thrown up..... Thanks
After Ive washed and dried the car, does anybody know of a good product that will suit the rear diffuser to keep it in top notch condition. Its starting to get dirty water marks round the exhaust pipes.
I drove to cambridge and back the other weekend, around a 230 mile round trip. The driving position is comfy for long hauls, and the extra weight has worked in its favour for this kind of driving as it felt very planted. I must admit I was watching Mpg so i stuck cruise control on at 65 (just...
If they would pre register it for you they will pre register it for someone else. Your deposit should in theory go to renault UK, can it not be transferred to the R27?
Im just picturing a scenario of a cambelt failure on a clio under warranty. The mechancic spots a front end repair. Who has the final say on weather it may have been unseen stress from the impact? I Suppose if they arent looking for body work damage then you may get away without a fight. I think...
306 gti, mk2 ph 1 172, tt 225 and 197. Only the 225 was a slip up as a "drivers car" On the road, I will stand by my comment I couldnt tell any difference to a standard Cup. You can get the recaros in a cup. You own it, you like it, I drove it, I couldnt justify the premium. You prob wouldnt buy...
I think you would struggle on any warranty claims and you may struggle to get it insured aswell. And loan companies specifically for cars wont lend on them either. No warranty problems if its a 172 cup as its out of 3 years. Get a full 12 month MOT with it and if it flys through then its a good...
