2007 57 plate 197 F1 recently ticked over to 66k.

Why should they though? It's damaged, not faulty. That's like Renault offering you a new car after you have crashed your 172. Unless of course you meant he would have to pay for it? If so then please ignore my comment!

I'm with you on this, all the 197's that are on <30k miles makes me laugh! Get out there and drive them! There are people that think 10k a year is HIGH mileage! My car had done an average of 13k a year when I bought it, people thought I was mad!

ECP? Try and find a discount code if you can, you should get it quite a bit cheaper (not that it's expensive in the first place)...

Agreed, and nobody is disputing that. I can get 35mpg if I drive at 65-70. I went to Snowdon and back late last year and sat with the CC set to 70 all the way there and back and achieved 33mpg however the trip computer does under read in my opinion. On that journey I brimmed the tank then...

Only if their are injuries I believe.

How does an 18 year old student afford a brand new 200?

Is this in your own name? £570 seems very cheap for a 22 year old without proper NCD. Unless you park in Fort Knox and do 5 miles a year?

Maybe check out the East Midlands section? http://www.cliosport.net/forum/forumdisplay.php?128-East-Midlands

44mpg isn't high 40's though is it? 44 is mid 40's. I have no problems accepting the mpg is shocking on the 197, i'm averaging 28mpg maximum. What I do object to is claims of 1,000,000 miles to a teaspoon of petrol that seem to pop up on here very regularly. It seems like its the only thing...

Sorry but I don't believe that. Maybe high 30's maybe 40 at a push but not high 40's unless you are sitting at 50-55 mph all the time?

Be prepaired for a few return journeys to Mr Clutch. A 306 GTI-6 I had a couple of years ago had a clutch change by them (before I bought it I might add!) I took it back to them as it was juddering, they replaced it FOC under warranty. 3 weeks later it was juddering again. I replaced it with a...

Why not go for an F4Rt?

Then buy it outright. Unless you get finance on 0% then you will be out of pocket. The interest rate on your borrowing will be higher than the interest rate on your savings meaning you will be losing out.

^ this! You do sound like a complete tool to be honest.

Please type like a normal human being, not an ape. How hard is it to type out words in full?

Me too, but a number of people have been quoted stupid prices by Renault as they say the glass has to come out!

You may be able to get them cheaper but they are £14.75 each here. http://renaultpartsdirect.co.uk/products/Renault-Clio-3-1%7B47%7D4-Glass-Seal.html ive used them for loads of bits

Connects2 is probably the best option if you want to have control of the ipod from your headunit. http://www.connects2.co.uk/VehicleProducts.aspx.aspx?Manufacturer_ID=46&Model_ID=147 Also, be wary if you got to a dealer for the window seals to be replaced. They will insist that the rear...

I sprayed my front grilles with some satin black spray paint. Worked a treat!

Don't some policys say that they will provide a brand new car of the same specification in the event of it being written off < 12 months old? I know my wifes policy does on her car. That's with Churchill.

They don't give it away! Surely the PC manufacturer pays something for the software licence! If you buy a system from somewhere like eBuyer you can buy OS free for a reduced cost which clearly shows to me that Microsoft receive something for the OS........... or am I missing something?

On your own policy? or as a named driver?

Personally I'd want that looking at professionally. It the inner wing or chassis leg may have taken a whack.

I'm guessing he's replaced it for a y pipe of some sort? Big job that as the manifold has to come off to get at it? The pre-cat is only small isn't it? I can't see it being worth much personally.

Sounds like a marketing scam to me! It's just to get you through the door!

This joker has posted on 197.net, see below 'Just brought a Clio 197 07 reg with 40k 5days ago and now it broken i was goin 70 on motorway and den put my foot down to 120 and then the engine started to make a rattling and clonking sound has ne 1 Eva had this problem i Fort these cars were built...

Pretty much yeah

Please don't do this. Buy a 1.2 or something if you want to 'slam' it. What is the point in having one of the best handling hot hatches available and then not being able to drive it in the way it was designed?

I can't answer your question, but it's xenon, not zenon. Chris
