Buy the latest lowest mile full history car you can find.
Condition is everything; you can't polish a turd :D
I had the Cup with ac, speedlines & recaros in glacier white.
Good car & I used to give it death ;)
200's are nearing 8k so I would save for another month & get one.
This is why so many buy new & after a while decide to get rid once the honeymoon is over.
Then they try & sell for stupid prices until it dawns on them that 10K is max a stealer is going to offer.
If you enjoy & can afford it what difference does it matter?
Guy at work smokes 40-60 fags a day, I...
Oh dear, big mistake not doing the proper HPI check.
I would ask for refund from seller if no good, his house might need new windows for sure!
The car you bought is basically worthless, as mentioned lesson learnt.
With BT & am in dispute with the idiots as mine is never stable.
Best I have had is 6.4mb usually 1-2mb.
When I complain it goes up for a day or so then crap again, why?
Virgin looks like the daddy with these results?
Ahhh George's mechanic, the penny's now dropped :o
We had dinner together with George & Nic.
What do you think to the mx5 as a trackday toy?
More fun than clios?
Coming along to the next trackday?
I think you do a better job.
Maybe Renault may want to listen instead of fobbing off customers with the usual responses.
IF Renault actually listened to what customers wanted they would take a great leap forward ;)
After seeing this I posted a link on RS to see what Renault had to say about this.
Am thinking about wife's next motor & she likes the 200 & that in turn would be cleaned out regularly on track :o
Got the usual forum know it alls having a laugh, but think Renault may look into this.
3D tv will show 2D equally as good as any other, just gives you the option if you fancy 3D.
As for wait for the 3D without glasses still away off & pricey.
Seen the latest Philips set at ISE in the Dam have to say was bloody good but mucho wonga.
Panny Vt/Gt plasma still possibly best on...
What's best deal available at present on the 200?
Toying with getting one mainly for 4 yr warranty, bonus when trackdays are a must ;)
This is my fav colour

Or...
Seen some well cheap 4/5 K,
So you buy a cheap base car, paint it red, set of turinis in correct colour, find a set of recaros, your really lucky & find a set of Sachs dampers.
Not so cheap now is it!!!
Oh & after all that your only FOOLING yourself as everyone knows what a proper trophy...
I bought mine with three thousand miles on the clock back in 2006, for 10K.
Three yrs later & sitting at 17,000 got nearly 9.5K for it.
Not many cars that you can do that with.
Would I shell out 10K for another, NO.
Never go back, move on.
Last winter my wife was letting her car de ice on the drive.
BOOM, back window exploded.
Quiet common when you search.
Renault had never heard of it.
Yet meg sport forum seems common.
Last time we were at Donington together I was trying to drift round the outside of you round Coppice.
Think you outdrag me down the straights but I have you in the twisties ;)
This, you may be surprised at how good the car is as standard.
Learn to drive with what you have first.
MY 197 used to eat Donington GP circuit & this is renowned as a brake killer.
If you run out of brakes you are on them too much ;)
Now I don't usually like simulated driving games & think most are crap & unreal.
While at a show in the Dam I had to re assess my thoughts.
Had a go in what can only be described as the most life like driving experience ever.
Full on 3d simulator, paddle shift, sparco seat, momo wheel, bose...
Second option is where you should be.
Plasma still pisses on the competition, fact.
Muppets on here who say 'looks' better in yadayada shop, FFS keep quiet.
3d tv is fine you may never watch a 3d programme but at least you have the option.
Don't shop on price look at 'real life' performance, a...
