fuel economy isnt bothering me to be honest, its nice to have something with a nice exhaust note and turns so many heads!
i dont do many miles these days anyway, no need for a derv as nice as it was to live with day to day!
they are identical same stupid place for the handle but they are black leather rather than wrapped in tights

gt spoiler fits without a boot lid, confirmed by renaultsport.
these drive nothing like a 172/182, low down grunt is no issue on them, it feels about as pokey around town as...
only got a few plans for it, a GT spoiler, possibly black speedlines or something aftermarket, set of GT door cards as this has some poverty spec material ones to match the poverty rear bench!
so far loving it, its bloddy thirsty! but goes well, impressive ammount of low down grunt compaired to...
the RS service schedule is lower than the non RS one to take the higher state of tune/harder driven engine into account. 12k/2yrs is fine. anyone who fancies wasting their money doing 500 mile oil changes then fire on!, my oil is usually still the colour it went in after 12k!

lupos are gash, my sisters 1.4 16v 100hp has cost about 2 grand in the last 2 years. its an 53 plate one lady owner before us, 30k full VWSH, id never ever ever own one, i got it for her because i wanted something reliable for her, what a joke that turned into.
remapped dci 100
its not the wear im worried about, get in and out them properly and they will be fine, as per every other car fitted with recaros, its more just about keeping them in good nick when going to and from work
i went in to order a brand new one but this one was delivery millage pre reg at a cracking deal, with cup chassis and recaros, and in the colour i wanted, so only really missing bluetooth, projectors and speedlines, all of which ill probably end up adding anyway
