And why is my gearbox fcuked :lolup:

My Impreza STi got passed by a bus once - mind you I caught the cnut in the twisties :D.

Unless you're Dead :dead: But hey - it's not for others to tell anyone what to do. Advice is just that - If I could have afforded a Porche at 19 - I'd have got one without a second thought. Life aint a rehearsal :cool:

That sounds like something out of a p**n movie :D. I too enjoyed that comment :)

Joking aside I'd be taking your car back to the garage and demanding they replace it with a working one. There are statutory rights that goods sold must be fit for purpose and your car clearly isn't !

You do know what the pedal on the left is for don't you ;)

That's global warming for you :eek::S:D

I have no idea ;):D Voting for 1 of two options shouldn't be this hard - I blame Brian :D

I think I need to change my vote :D

I think in terms of the original question the definition is; Cup = 200 Cup FF = 200 (not the cup but the one with the 36kg of toys that make the car easier to live with). I think the 200 (not the cup but the one with the 36kg of toys that make the car easier to live with) with the cup pack...

You're starting to sound like my wife - Look dear they were in the sale - you saved £50. no you daft bint - you've spent £300 on something you don't need. ;).

Can be done - but would probably cost more than the factory fit option !

£850 to remove 2 perfectly good seats and replace them with 2 slightly better fitting but worse constructed seats. No thanks ;)

Ordered a cup. Got a FF. Paid for a cup :D

Not sure everyone on Scoobynet would agree with the 'Top Bloke' part ;):D. But he can drive sideways :)

Holding it's value is fine - but Total cost of ownership over say 3 years will probably be about the same if you do 15k ish Miles per annum. No Science here just my opinion ;).

This is the car for you ;) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nqqZ28m8uCo

Come back in 20 years and the 200 may have got to 200 :D

Something not right with these 1.2s. I'm getting 32mpg in a 200 - now I don't drive like Jenson Button - but I also don't drive like James May. I'd expect a 1.2 to be returning mid 40s tbh :S

Not the TCE - but looks a bargain !! http://www.perrys.co.uk/renault-clio-1.2-16v-extreme-3dr/new-and-delivery-mileage/offer-166683 Scrub that - just noticed it includes scrapage !!!

Indeed - but it hardly looks aggressive - which is the point I was trying to make ;). Mind you - I'm not so sure that the 200 front is aggressive either - I'm thinking of painting the wiggly "F1 inspired hard to clean spoiler" thing pink so it's looks like a tongue :cool:

From the front the 197 looks pretty much like every other Mk3 Clio - you certainly can't say that about the 200 (whether you like it or not).

You're a fcuking r****d ;)

By the sounds of it they still have some work to do on reliability & trim materials before they need to worry too much about looks. But the 200 seems to be a fairly "substantial" flimsy french hatch ;)

They concentrate on making them go well - not look nice. I find it astounding that folk seem to think Renault have ruined some great masterpiece. It was the same with the Scoobs - there was a hard core of "classic" owners that bitched about the cars becoming bug eyed blob eyed etc - Mind...

I wouldn't pay £16k for a 200 ! Hardly superiority complex - I'm driving a French bag of s**t that will probably fall apart in 5-6 years time - by which time I'll have moved on and it will have cost me maybe 5-6k.

I wouldn't fit in it for starters :). And I don't like them !

Sounds like you're the one with a chip on your shoulder ;). If I was in the market for an old car I wouldn't go anywhere near a clio - why do you have a problem with that ?

Correct :clown:

JayR started it :clown:
