    197 Cup - Who Does The Cheapest UK Car?

    Buy them from Bev and that's £200 in my sky rocket. :D

    Too many stickers.

    You certainly loved the stickers.

    197 rather than the cup

    I'll rephrase what I said a little. Rather than not being able to afford, maybe they are waiting for them to be at a price they are happy to pay.

    197 rather than the cup

    Good point. I'd have had an R27 if I'd realised how cheaply I could have picked one up!! I left it to late to get a factory order in, and I wasn't ready for a new car at the time. By the time I was ready it was to late. I didn't go for a FF because I actually prefer the look of the Cup, and...

    197 rather than the cup

    Not at all. Every time a new model comes out people on Cliosport pick faults and slate it, then after a year or two when they can afford one they love it. It's been going on for years and won't change now. lol When the 182 came out everyone picked on the silver headlamp surrounds and...

    197 rather than the cup

    It's a the "we hate the new Clio" cycle. People don't like change I guess. I just started to type some of the comments I've read on here made about the different revisions over the years, but got bored. lol Those wheel barrow exhausts seem to have been forgotten about now though.

    197 rather than the cup

    Most people still have their moms wiping their arses on here though Mark. lol And the vast majority are sheep and can't think for themselves. He's selling because he needs a family bus Dawnc182. Kid on the way.

    Red 197 - Cannock

    This morning around 8.25 on the A5 heading towards the Orbital. I gave a wave but couldn't see if I got one back due to the sun being in my eyes! It wasn't Breakneck Burns, so there's now 2 red 197s in Cannock.

    Hello from Birmingham

    Welcome to CS. As I've said over on the Renaultsport forum, I'm amazed I've never seen you about as I drive through Great Barr quite a lot. The Star City meet should be good. You can't go wrong with food and then me winning the ten pin bowling.

    197 rather than the cup

    I wish it would attract women in the same way, not dudes with gold teeth. He did say he would never pay that sort of money for a Clio though!! Even when I told him what it should cost and what I paid. I've still not taken any decent pics of mine Paul. There's a couple off my phone in the JDM...

    197 rather than the cup

    I had someone approach me yesterday, just a random on the car park. The car draws so much attention. Only one car geek ever approached me about the Trophy.

    197 rather than the cup

    I wouldn't waste my money on a FF 197 now. There's no point. The Cup doesn't lack anything important, and cost a lot less. What you all seem to forget is that the interior of the Cup is still 100 x better than all the previous Renaultsports, and is the same as most Meganes and normal...

    The JDM Appreciation Thread...

    I thought exactly the same thing this morning when I parked in front of it. Mine is a very bright clean white (even though the car is filthy), the Honda is more eggshell. lol

    My 197

    Lovely. I think I caught a glimpse of you the other day, but wasn't close enough to see if you were driving. I wondered if you had picked it up.

    The JDM Appreciation Thread...

    Yeah, he traded his Cayman S in as he worked out it was costing £1400 a month to own and run. He also had a Honda Jazz and wanted just one car. After having 3 Tegs and an S2000 he fancied another Honda. So Litcho did him a good deal in return for some more artwork for the new Type 25. At...

    The JDM Appreciation Thread...

    I was just chatting to my mate about it. He's a Honda fan. His misses has a new diesel Civic, and he's got a couple of Honda bikes, an Accord for towing his race car and an S2000. It's madness they never bought the DC5 over, or the new JDM Civic Type R. It's not like they're not suited to...

    It's a lot longer, but not as high. Stunning car, I'd have one.

    He's over here a bit. Both myself and his bro work on 5 ways in Tricorn House. When I get the chance I'll get some pics of Gaz's new JDM CTR, in Championship white of course. Sounds lovely.

    The JDM Appreciation Thread...

    I almost took a pic of my white Cup next to a lad I work withs new JDM CTR. At some point we're going to get our cars, plus his bro's Swift (in this months Banzai Mag I believe) together for a photoshoot. Problem is they are all white and all filthy. The Swift:

    New Twingo RS Marketing shots

    17"s are available as an option. IMO they'll not do anything for the handling. 17"s on a 172/182 killed the feedback.

    My Clio history 2003 - 2008

    My boss has just been moaning about how I've had 4 new cars in the time he's had 1. We both got made redundant in 2003 and spent our redundancy on brand new cars as we had company cars at the time. He bought a new 03 plate 307 HDi, which is now on over 120k and just passed it's MOT. Obviously...

    New Twingo RS Marketing shots

    That's the point, two more supportive seperate seats which can be moved around individually. It's got bags of room in the back too. The front seats are up there with the standard ones in a 197, and they're fantastic.

    The dash is plasticy but the seats are fantastic.

    white cup

    I got 23.6mpg the first week. I filled up fully again on Saturday. Drove a 42mile round trip to Birmingham using the M6 and saw 32mpg. Today I've driven to Brum again using normal roads and it's showing just over 29mpg. I think he's looking for a family bus now there's a sprog on the way.

    Lee on the tiles this evening?

    I hate hangovers, but I'll never learn. I just about managed to wash the car this afternoon. Just later than planned!

    Lee on the tiles this evening?

    Yeah that was me. Obviously I couldn't miss your motor burbling away there as you drew some cash out the hole in the wall. I've only just recovered. A mixture of corona, desperados, sambuka and white Russians isn't a good idea.

    Speedlines or Standard 197 Cup Alloys Help!

    It depends on the colour of the Cup. I think they look great against racing blue and nimbus, but I think they are OTT against the black. It could be my ages catching up with me, but I think the anthracite look perfect against the white. Most people who have seen my car this week have agreed...
