That's not a Valver mate, it's Williams 0001: http://www.rapidpants.com/images/gallery/motors/2006/Williams/index.html
Can't remember the name of the place. Some Hall somewhere in the UK. lol
As many as they can sell I'd think. It's not limited in any way. Otherwise I'd have had number 007 of course. lol
I doubt there will be many white ones outside of us on here and Renaultsport and the press cars. Who in their right mind would buy white.
I can understand people not liking the white. I'm sure it's going to hurt the resale value for sure, but I like it which is why I've picked it over racing blue.
As for your other comments they're the usual overly harsh pointless b****cks. lol
Personally I would have also gone for an R27 were...
haha and you wish you could afford one, but can't. ;)
As usual it's those in the 1.2s and the like who slate it the most. lol "197 with Cup packs all day long" and at a considerably larger cost! Look at your current Clio, the dash is a lot worse than that of the 197 Cup. But that's okay...
I think what people fail to realise is that even though it's a cheap 197 it's still worth more than any of our previous model Clios excluding the V6. It comes in at £16.5k RRP for white, Recaros and aircon! Cars just aren't as cheap as they used to be.
Plenty of interior ones as I was sent these to help me decide whether to go for the Cup or a 197 with Cup packs.
The pics are from last weeks UK press launch.
I think it appears popular on here but I reckon in the big scheme of things they won't actually sell that many in white. How many people other than us lot would seriously order a white car these days?
Same but I decided against the black speedlines and stuck with anthracite in the end. Same for me with the aircon, I wasn't thinking resale, I was thinking of the odd occasion I'm stuck in traffic in the centre of Birmingham on a hot day. I'd rather not risk opening the window. lol
People keep telling me the interior on the Trophy is dated. I can't see what they mean! All I can see is that the dials in orange are dated, the rest is just the usual.
I've gone for the Cup this time because I can't stretch to a 197 in the spec I want. I've studied the Cup interior and I...
Different line apparently. That was why they couldn't do white previously. It wasn't because they didn't want to, it was down to logistics.
£150 on the Cup, £360 on the 197, but that's not cofirmed. I suppose they do have to paint the wing mirrors, door handles and rub strips. lol
I had them on the 172 and the 182 but I don't miss them on the Trophy. I'm not having them on the 197. They're just pretty more than anything. Headlights still have to light up the road effectively whether it's slightly orange light or the nice crips white light of xenons.
They are. The only real external differences are the unpainted rub strips, door handles and wing mirrors on the Cup. And they've removed the Clio badge off the back which looks a lot better IMO.
I think the 197 looks the dogs. The 172/182 were very subtle and easily mistaken for a 1.2 by...
Yeah that was me. Thanks to you being 5 minutes late bringing the courtesy car back they let me have the Twingo for the day as she had already done the paperwork. :D
I've never seen another Trophy in Cannock, there won't be any soon.
Followed you for a few yards this morning before passing you as I pulled into the car park. You'll know where I mean if it was you. :) Don't want to post where I park me car.
Welcome to CS.
I'm amazed I've never seen you around Cannock as that's where I live. Blue or orange?
You might have seen one of my Clios over the last few years. 03 Monaco 172, 04 Arctic 182 and currently the Trophy until Jan when it will be a white Cup.
I can't remember what I PM'd you now but with the options I've had it's a dam good price.
Yeah, Brum again. I don't mind the car coming from them, the next time they see it will be trade in time though. lol
