Put it this way... Greenlight have a list of cars they wont touch. The 172 cup (quote none abs version) is one of them, and they are a performance car specialist!

But you will want something else mid way through the 4 years and you will be in further negetive equity when you make that purchase. Your choice mate, its your money. Work out what is best for you. Just don't do what that tool did recently and buy a clio thats worth 2k and get finance to the...

All you have done is state the obvious and make a tool of yourself by saying you couldn't tell the difference between a 197 and a diesel. My 197 gets the looks and questions off people when I park up. It happened this week actually at Shell. Your stupid fail comment touched a nerve on me for...

You are going to be muchos negetive equity on your current car. Negetive equity is the financial version of love handles. The fat has to go somewhere and it will go right on the hips of the megane. Suddenly the 8k megane becomes an expensive car for its age / condition / milage etc etc

Brilliant

Capable cars, sure. Angelina Jolie is a capable woman but id much rather have at least 5 other women before her. Astra VXR?...He has been smoking something, but it wasnt a VXR thats for damn sure!

lol at your sterotype post. I could buy one in cash tomorrow if I wanted It looks sh1t end of story.

To those who say you wouldn't give chase... at 1am empty roads, someone just wiped out your mirror. You really wouldn't chase? When he went through the camera at 60 and you had to slow down, i bet when you got past the camera you gave the RS all it had to catch back up again! lol He was...

Sounds great on a 1000cc v-twin, like a Honda Firestorm with an aftermarket exhaust on it.

The focus was indeed quick on the straights. Maybe driver ability means it should have been faster round the bends and out of sight, but wasnt? Good driving though warren.

R27's FTW 200'S FTL

Look at that Liquid Yellow Epicness on Pic 5. I want.

Hmm, don't like any of it mate tbh including the roof. However, the new lights do look better than the old way at least.

That photoshop is the clearest piccy yet that shows Renault fooked up the front end good and proper. A touchpad photoshop quickie and 2 minutes later the car is transformed. I hate the 200 (sorry) I love the photoshop. 1st mod?...Spray the front.

The RS was c0cking a wheel, so yes it was trying. Its a shame the 200 looks terrible.

So...its exactly the same as a 197 then but with a worse front end and better rear end. Everything you said about the power delivery reminds me of my 197. The 200 was supposed to have extra grunt low down. Also having only been in the car 5 seconds im not suprised you thought it was slow. It...

There is only 88kg's difference. I promise you, a mk5 GTi will do the raping. I know for a fact it will. I gave the one I had for sometime the berries and I had a full car. I did it rolling in 3rd gear and it just picked up its heels and went with no effort at all. Golf v 197 (and I own a...

Stick a cable tie on it, it will pass.

1:27 exige appears in your mirror.

Are those tailpipes not part of the diffuser? Im not sure they are changable?

Im sure I just said pretty much exactly the same thing a couple of posts up?;) I beleive it so much ill say it again though and join in with the CS echo. A golf, mapped or not will pull on a 197. Take it from someone who owns a 197 and has driven a good few thousand miles in a MK5 GTi. Once...

Its a capable, utterly sh1t to look at car, especially in white or that bogey green colour. Sorry, its gash

The golf doesnt even have to be mapped! Once the Golf is in top end 2nd and into 3rd it will pull on a 197.

Have you driven one? I own a 197 and I think a VW GTi has buckets more usable power day to day. Underpowered it isn't imo. The mid range is brutal and it will top 140mph.

could do with a bit more mate. looks good though, much better

To the op... You have got the perfect car now for your needs. Don't waste money on a car thats isnt a step up that is only (probably) going to cause you grief. (that is if you are thinking of changing) Your mates don't know what they are talking about. End of story imo

lol I do that to the point where I get a sore neck from looking down at a mag. 1 Hour later I realise ive been here for a long time.

Ive driven one for long periods (my dads) and I agree it has no character, but it is quick. Alright, its not going to set your hair on fire but neither does the 172. What it does have though is oodles more usable power day to day. Press the loud pedal and in any gear it will pick up. It...

Yep, Scott made my savagely curbed alloy look mint again. Yes, he has a rather bald head. He looks a tad like Jasper Carrot I think. Scott did mention that his mate has a 'proper oven, so it will be done reight'. So I assume he wasnt mobile, unless he has a mobile oven! lol :S The only thing...

lol! I know Scott, and I am also used to telling people "mention me and he will sort you out with a discount!" small world. EDIT He has already looked at the dent and he cant sort it himself he says. He did recommend a friend of his who has a body shop so that is one option.
