its what they are made for lol!! Dont need QD or anything. Just make sure its a good microfibre one :)

Just use a good drying towel/chamois!!

Needs good slam ;)

It might have to be blended into the door somewhat, dont think just the wing can be painted, it may stand out and not match? £200 ish?

nooo dont worry, they love having a good wringing tbh!!! 3rd gear is best ;)

Noooooo its fine!!!!! Some people are too paronoid on here, tbh i wonder how some peeps actually get out the house on their own :clown:

I've had no problems, mechanical sympathy is the key imo ;) Probably done about 100k in different Clios!

I've had Renaultsport Clios since 2004 (172 Cup, 182 and now 197)and they always get taken way past 5 k once warm. Then engine is the strongest bit tbh, very rare you hear of an engine failure

Seriously it'll need paint that. General rule of thumb....... if you can feel the scratch with your nail, it cant really be polished outwith a machine. It might be improved on slightly but thats it. Yours is far too deep imo, looking at yours its down to the primer!!! I have a PC so have some...

Cup FTW!!!!

indeedy ;)

:star: for you chap!!! I see it getting asked a lot on here tbh!!!! They all make the car look the same.

You think?....... :rasp:

LOL but any coilovers can be set to that height ;) Thats the idea.

Hmmmm not sure i agree with that at all!!! Yes its the same shell, but the track is much wider on the 197. According to the hand book i have, a standard 2.0 clio has a track of 1,472m front, 1,450m rear. RS is 1,520m front and rear. The front end has the double axis suspension from the Meg 225...

Wouldn't have one with the Silver alloys, be with my forthcoming Black set....

how do you know?

Police drive Cups now do they?!

Re the cup spolier, thats what i thought, have you seen one in the flesh? Changed my mind, still not sure, and probably wont but who knows lol!!!! Its dropped a fair bit tbh, the rears have another 10 mm ish to go (maybe more) and the fronts have another 30mm of thread left lol. I just wound it...

Spot on. Had H&R's on all three of my Renaultsports (172 Cup/182) and now the 197. The ride is a tad firmer than mine (non cup chassis) so imo wouldn't be far off what yours feels like now. They are a quality piece of kit, very refined, not harsh or anything. Its great for the B roads by me...

LOL :rasp:

Granted the headlights are, but it could be loaded in side, could have Climate, 40w Cabasse 6 disc changer, folding mirrors etc.....

I'll bring my ear defenders ;)

Ivor bigg'un ;)

Here If its Cup packed it should be 60mm. This is the shock absorber on the bench if your wondering lol. Its the bolts that bolt to the hub :)

if you go down to the woods today........... ;)

At LEAST 5.5k, easy imo

182 with Cup packs you mean ;). The 182 Cup is a watered down version. The Cup badge used to mean track focused, ie PROPER weight saving, more focused suspension, but it kept the Renault Sport steering wheel, sill plates aluminium pedals etc, so in theory a looked and 'felt' like a track car for...

Ran mine on the 182 with standard system, does sound different, quite liked it in the end!!!!

No problemo, i also saved it too ;) It is hard to capture the 197 properly by a photograph, in true form it has some real persence, the front end especially :)
