Being honest, it was down a hill, but DiBraggio on here will confirm it, as he was the passenger.. was up against a CTR ;) I told him to get a photo but he couldnt get his phone out quick enough!
my best 0-60 was 6.7s but reckon if i could launch it a bit better, i could maybe just see 6.5.. top speed, my road angel was reading 146mph on night, and my passenger said the speedo was sitting in between 150-160 (all along my driveway) ;)
i was a bit disappointed aswell mate.. we drove past it again yesterday, in the car park, so i could show my mate, and without even getting out my car, the salesman was all over me!
thanks for the opinions on my car.. soon to be lowered a bit.. but i wasnt really looking to change it, just wondered what the 197 is like.. now i know, and i will not be changing..! :D
he offered me £7600 for mine in september (when i could get the 197) which is a 54 plate, 9k.. bit of an insult i though, specially when the options list included £500 for xenons..
Went past renault today and noticed that they had the 197 outside on the showroom floor, so as i had a couple of hours to spare, thought i would go in for a look around...
first impressions - the thing is huge!!!!!! reminded me of a v6, really wide arches, it really was big.. much much...
I had baywatch on as it was the first song that came to hand.. i wanted to have some sash or old school dance, but he was having none of that... :(
(thanks for not sayin what was on my RADIO!! i'll buy you a smirnoff ice sometime ;))
Finally just got mine sorted, had to get mine welded in bit etc to stop the thing blowing.. think it was fitted wrong.. imo its the best looking 182 exhaust you will get for the price, and really does give it a nice note... not too quiet, and not boy racer style :)
