No problemo.
www.auto-paint.co.uk should be able to sort it, cheap too. Might be worth giving them a ring. I've had the Renault Anthricite, and satin black and both matches have been spot on.
Hello
Over the next few weeks i'm going to attempt to fix a scuff on one of my 197 speedlines. I already have the paint in base coat, but according to auto-paint, it should have a satin lacquer, but this is proving hard to get hold of? They have said if i leave the base coat finish this...
Pikey as f**k imo. Over on 197 net some people will not listen, as the early ones are due cambelts. I point them to the many threads on here, and the few on Clio Trophy. "Ah but they are £100 cheaper" No s**t! I await the 'my cars running rough' threads ;)
Boils my piss tbh
My old one,
Mods were H&R coilovers, Speedlines, Recaros black mirror covers, repainted calipers.
Current Cup (standard at the mo ;))
Got these to go on it,
Ah so that slight leak was that switch, think every mk2 I've had weeps from there.
Lol! Think they are going on in the next few weeks................. Trouble is, they handle ace as stock, slightly reluctent as it rides nice to. Only got em as they were a bargain!! Still, might be nice to...
60k fella
The new bullets, new wheel nuts (from demon tweeks) wheel refurb, and sprayed up calipers kept it fresh :)
Lol. Gave the engine a good degrease, pressure washed down (Watch the electrics lol). I then got some VHT. Whipped off the inlets, gave them a few coats, and whilst they were...
I dont get this MPG lark. CTR never comes in for this stick, and its barely faster~? And has similar if not worse MPG figures. Clapped out classic that will drink fuel, no ta
Its bloody cheap, imo, only done 20k!
Xenon equipped cars have headlight washers. There are two other clusters, black ones that look like Xenons but have no washers, or the Silver clusters like my white Cup above
Possibly! My only regret is never owning one :(
Anyway, imo 197 for everyday. I averaged around 27mpg in my old 06 plate 197, get around 30mpg in my 08 Cup (longer 5/6th help) Used to get around 36mpg out of my old 172 Cups.
You aint getting 15bhp from a remap and exhaust. I'd say you probably need it remapping again. Think the likes of RS tuning in Leeds will remap for reduced rate if you have one of their maps originally?
Also wonder if this goes back to the mk3's leaning the maps out over time.
