The good thing about those rx8 is that depreciation is their middle name, you could probably have one for the price of a trophy and a prereg one for the price of a 197.

I hope they make it lighter this time and more of a track car.

I drove the higher power one once and thought it was a bloody good handling car and it revved like a motorbike with a lovely gearchange.

Thanks :)

This particular 182 only has 7000 miles though, thats why I thought I was out of the ordinary. (sorry for posting in the wrong place)

My mate is looking at getting a 182 and I looked under the bonnet and noticed the screws protruding from the suspension towers (where you would attach a strut brace) were completely rusted and when I sat in the driver's seat and did the gears 3rd gear was more like 5th gear in that it wasnt...

When is test drive out on 360? I hate playing demos, I would rather just buy it and play it when it comes out.

Will this car be road legal if you choose the silencer and passenger seat?

I've got like 10 games for this thing and none of them are really that good. IMHO wait for the PS3.

I thought about getting a 172 cup and stripping it but changed my mind when I realised the cup would cost £6000 for a decent one and the mods would take it up to trophy money.

Which dealer is this?

What did you think of 002? This was the press car used at brands hatch etc wasnt it? Damn though they let you test drive it. I could have purchased the car there and then with my credit card and they wouldnt let me take it out.

Sorry to see that. Hope that seat driver gets sent down for maximum sentence allowed for dangerous driving.

So much for CSV understeer control.

16kg is my guess, including the car.

Yeah it is me bidding on the trophy's

Looking at getting a trophy (reg "YK55 ORF") on ebay, has anyone viewed it? I know it has been listed a few times, so someone must have viewed it from the forums.

This thread is making me want a v6 but surely the track is not where the v6 excels. All that weight is going to cost you a fortune in consumables if you track it.

I'm thinking of buying a second one but is this a real one-...

Bloody hell I didn't post that someone is making posts on my computer.

Get down to reno watford for some nice bullshiting on what this car will do. Supposed to be a great deal quicker than the 182.

f**k me!

Feel exactly the same way. Throttle response in the 172 cup is far better, the 182 felt sluggish in comparison.

Shouldnt press cars, loan cars, courtesy cars etc be avoided though?

There is one here- http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/2005-55-RENAULTSPORT-CLIO-TROPHY_W0QQitemZ270018039881QQihZ017QQcategoryZ9861QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem I think the bloke has used some tyre shine on the interior, its a real greaser.

Best thing to do is not to get your insurers involved and handle it yourself if there is no fault on your part, as involving them will lead to an increased premium. Someone has probably already said this. Its funny how rear ending someone is not perceived as dangerous driving. My mate is...

But these cars are not about speed, their about keeping the weight down and handling excellently. Doesnt the vx weigh about the same as a 172 cup. I think a properly fettled elise s1 with nitrons is going to be a much better car than any vx and when that k-series goes bang theres always a...

I don't think its as good value as the 172 or 182. What has detracted me from a purchase is the weight and that with every incarnation there has been like a increase in performance until now but not with the 197.

I was thinking similar. There were 2 at bedford when I was there, both of them had their numberplates obscured with tape. I think a lot of people are tracking them and don't disclose the same when selling, don't know how much difference it makes. My concern is a heavily tracked car is going...

Fitted them cheers. What a vast improvment they are, can't believe it.
