I had a modus 1.2 turbo as a courtesy car
I fell out the seat and hit my funny bone on something when I tried to go round a corner at what I consider normal speeds.
I also felt sea sick with its bouncy bouncy suspension.
Good fun for spanking though. When i got bored of it I found myself...
Few things mate. I love my R27 to bits but would I have a vee over it? - Yes I would and because i love my car so much that really is saying something.
Also that "Silver" your talking about is actually Nimbus and when you say it looks poor, are you off your fcuking rocker? (no offence! lol)...
sorry i pressed post by accident.
197 all day long because point to point they are quicker than any 1*2 and thats mainly due to the chassis and brakes. They would pull away from a 1*2 aswell from about 60 onwards and there is nothing in it to 60. You feel like your going slower because they...
Gash tbh, utter gash but If its what your into then fair play to you.
I like tomato ketchup on my cheese on toast, other people hate it mate. Not everyone (or it seems on here no one!!) will like everything.
Gash
Here is a pic to show you how close my card has to be before my car wakes up.
This morning when i took the mrs to work i put my wallet with my keycard in it on the windowsil (i was outside) and tried to open the car and nothing happened.
I picked it up and moved it litterally a foot closer...
I know it is not a 172 but on RS.co.uk somebody was selling a PH2 V6 with something like 34 miles on it.
No Joke, they new owner still has to get the belts done because of age! lol
I have been a member on here for a bit now but only ever really read stuff and not bothered posting. I am a member on Renaultsport.co.uk and posted loads but now its getting sh1t because of the mods ruling with an iron fist.
Anyway, ive posted a few times on here recently and I think its only...
Seriously, guys. If your 197 is letting you in and the key is more than a metre away then take the thing back to the garage. It is SERIOUSLY broken or way way to lax to allow that to happen.
Litterally, if my key is not within about a metre of the car (maybe even less) it wont let me in. Like...
10 metres? lol no. If your card is 10 metres away no body will get in your car. You litterally have to be very close to your car. if you are say more than 1 metre away it wont let anyone in.
Where was the key card when you started the car?
I will find it hard to beleive if you tell me it was sitting in your living room the whole time and the car allowed you in and to start it.
Mine says "card not detected" even if I hold my hand out the window with the key card in it and try to...
A corsa? - Are you ill?
TBH you seem to be very very unlucky. This seems freakily strange that your car is going wrong so much. Stick with it, fix it and hopefully it will go right for you.
Don't get a corsa vxr mate. I drove one, i hated it with a passion and this was before i had my 197...
Thats the fun of it. It loves to be spanked.
Id fall asleep at the wheel of a Renault "drive everywhere in 6th" Megane.
Also when you want to by lazy and let it settle down and just drive places in quietness then it will do just that.
all subjective of course but a 197 looks far far far better than any meggy.
I parked my car up the other day and saw an Albi Blue 197 drive past and thought "wow". Then I smiled, because I thought I own one of those!
I have never seen one close up driving past really and they look the boll0x.
To be honest the key card is no more a security risk than a key! - Its pretty much the same thing.
The facts are this.
You cannot open the car unless the keycard is on your person. I don't know about anyone else but mine is very sensitive. I have asked my GF to stand slightly away from the...
Oh dear. Your going to have to spend a few quid to get it to go like your old 182. ST always look like they are sitting on stilts. As you can tell Im not a fan of the ST's
You say you wanted something with a warranty? When you mod it to the hilt you will destroy the warranty.
You could have...
I can only comment on what a cupped 197 is like to drive im afriad (im an R27 owner). In terms of toys ive got the lot so aint much point me talking about them
Lets get the negatives out the way first.!
Motorway drving is fairly loud. You will be at about 3.5 to 4k revs in 6th gear at 70...
