Ha ha ha, that's not what I've experienced. The performance is so close as to be almost inseperable in my opinion.

I love my mods (lots on brakes, a little on breathing and a few quid on some extra revs). Would I go back? Never. Ali, you are now officially a wuss.

That's the one. Great road it was. You West Country lot are spoiled for choice!

That's what I'm like, why I'm finding it so hard. Every single day I go to work earlier than I have to and come home later too just so the roads are quiter and I can have a nice progressive drive. On days when I have no need to drive it anywhere, I just go out for an hour for the pure hell...

The last time I drove my Clio was Friday night :( I'm now "stuck" in the arse end of Cornwall on holiday with only our Focus at my disposal. Good though the Focus is, the B3072 is crying out for a Cup attack. I actually dreamt about my Cup last night, I'm really properly missing it, the...

Here until Saturday...got a wedding on Friday, lots of beer and nothing until then :D

We're staying in a house in Bush, just north of Stratton. We were off to Morrisons to stock up on Beer when past you came. I made my wife pull out sharpish so I could get behind you as I was sure I saw the sticker! We were in our grotty grubby 51 plate Focus. Yellow badges looked good...

Just pulled out behind you from our holiday house in a burgundy Focus. You had a sticker on the back window too.

Only one I've seen had some yoof with his arm draped down the drivers door, music thumping, so obviously desperate to be noticed as he "cruised" down Chichester High Street at 3mph. I'm on board with the styling now, they look stunning from certain angles.

LMAO - "competition mesh inserts" W***

www.newcardiscount.com - £10,700 Got a trade in price on my Mondeo V6 which was a good price at the time I ordered it. I knew from this forum that waiting times over the summer shutdown were long (mine took 5 months) so I called them up and made them agree to hold/honour the trade in price...

Nice, very nice.

I don't think it comes across too well in the pictures. Up close and personal though I think it looks stunning, makes me want to stroke it. Drives nicely and sounds great too.

Ooh, I bet that smarts. I got my 172 Cup brand new for £300 more than that :eek:

Run on your road rims/rubber Neil, it'll be fine. Paul...be careful fella. Addictive it most certainly is; I'm buying a bigger shed to hold all the wheels + wet/slick/semi-slick tyres I've now got :evil:

PMSLOL ^^^ You didn't have too much difficulty getting out of it then? Or did an ARV turn up, fire sixty warning shots in the air, before throwing a few flash-bangs through the windows?

I agree, if they were that devious...but most of them can't even spell Renault, let alone think of devious ways to screw over their customers beyond "that's normal wear and tear so not covered".

Ha ha ha, all that trouble as well. Like Day said, they don't even pick up the phone when they should. Then they'd have to be able to justify, prove 100% in fact, that that random username they came across was you, and that what you stated on the forum was factual. No way. There's no...

Do you take your plates off when out driving in case someone sees it and makes a clone? I've never understood why people go to that bother with pictures myself. Serious question... How many people can genuinely say they know someone who's had their car identity cloned, which then got them...

Mine drives mine fairly regularly too. Hates the noise. Loves the "go". Throttle response is too sharp for her though, she's no idea what smooth is LOL Never puts her foot down enough for me either.

I have a rubber fetish, and that is properly sexual. This year Paul, this year at some point we're going to go head to head on track, can't wait mate :race:

Lovely. Hope there's a discount for having no boot carpet/parcel shelf/back seats? Might just swing it for me...

Impressive I'd say too.

Can and does happen. Would worry if they still do that in a week/500 miles time.

LMAO - You're getting good value from your 5 today eh ;)

My car was dyno'd recently - measured 148 at the wheels, which equates to roughly 175 at the fly. Using those transmission losses, your alleged 192 at the wheels would give you 227 at the fly. So that's an extra 30 bhp. From a remap. On a Renault normally aspirated engine. ROFLMFAO. Where...

Is he? Ooh...

Just leave it as is! c**k the back wheel on every corner, job done.

Bargain :D I want one for £3k or less really. Need to find a granny that's never taken it above 2k rpm and has no idea of its value.

Lovely, keep us up to date with how you get on with it. I'm on the lookout for one of these for myself for when my Cup retires. Great cars. What did you pay for what mileage if you don't mind me asking? (PM if necessary) Thanks
