Looking good. Enjoy, see you have found the joys off owning a black gold one already, still wouldnt have any other colour though.

Id rather drive a dirty car! The number one cause of swirled paintwork in the world. Currently trying to restore a friends car that has only ever been through car washes.

Waiting to see one in the flesh at Goodwood before I order.

My old 309 GTi over the 182... which just pips my 205 GTi.

Just picked up the mag, not sure what the appeal off the Festa ST is?

The local dealership had one off these earlier in the year. They had the above plus an FI car and a display off RS models outside, plus the token free food and beer.

Its the closest car today to the great hot hatches of the 80s/90s. To me its the modern day 205 GTi, which was one off the cars mine replaced. I say do it. Like others say most people go for both the cup packs.

I like them alot more than the standard ones ... did you buy them new from Renault?

I remember the night before I picked mine up on the 1st of March and it was like christmas eve as a kid. Black Gold good choice...enjoy.

Another quality Roy thread :) I know what you mean though. Took mine out on Sat for the first time in weeks, when you sat in the drivers seat giving it some proper beans that you remember why you brought it in the first place... Your favourite bit off road and the shift light.

PC polished a mates 406 under an easy-up for shade yesterday afternoon, never again in temps like that.

Yes colour is called inferno.

Scratch X by hand will struggle to remove anything more than minor marring. Bad wash techniques/sponges/rotary machine polishing/poor polishing cause swirls but most cases are from machine car washes. Always start off with the mildest polishs first, Renault paint is soft so in some cases...

I payed 12.6 for mine without friends and family after showing the salesman a print out of the quote from car select online. After some haggling he agreed, the day I placed the order I then got an email saying it could be done for 11.7 from somewhere else.

Out off all the people on various forums that I have know to buy one, only one person has had a faulty one. Autopia sent him out a new one straight away no questions asked. He didnt even send the old one back. I wonder why I put off buying one so long now. I am able to sort peoples paint now...

Do a search there was a really good checklist in word kicking around when I brought mine. I second the matt clips, mine where missing, should also be 2 cans off tyre weld, and lots off manuals, general Clio, Renault Sport Supplement, Alarm one and Cat 1 cert, Stereo, Warrenty, dealer list.
