    197's/200's really that bad on fuel

    Ripping it a new arsehole is a bit extreme..? Chris Harris even mention how half hearted the GP is. I do love the Gp's, I nearly bought one. But it was just for the rarity, nothing else. This is where this thread gets divided down to just being people's opinions. My 200 is always seeing 33+...

    197's/200's really that bad on fuel

    I won't listen to your view. if your mini that is 'terrible' on fuel, but is still 'far better' than your 197 was, something wasn't right with your 197. And if it was nowhere near as quick.

    197's/200's really that bad on fuel

    They are. Fact. Maybe not after 120+ Then there was something wrong with your 197 to be returning that Mpg. i drove to Bath yesterday and back for Castle Combe Action day, and I only used £35 in fuel. 220 miles. My friends astra Vxr used £55 terrible mpg, and still better than the 197? Hole...

    It'll be in the way if someone moves the seat forward/back? Good idea though

    197's/200's really that bad on fuel

    I love how people say 'they're not even fast' same pace as a standard golf r32 3.2 v6! Golf cost double on tax and is 1000X times worse on fuel

    Lovely cars. If I was to do the same, I'd be getting an RB182 Cup. but I love the 200 too much to think of selling atm

    Yokohama AD08R's

    Wear is fine, hard side walls, should see 10K + out of them they're a pretty tough tyre until you get heat in them, so unless your driving hard on them everyday (getting them warm and softening them) they'll be just as good wear as a road tyre

    Yokohama AD08R's

    They get better as they wear too. i found them brilliant at this level, shame they're complete opposite in the wet at that depth

    Yokohama AD08R's

    Worth every penny, perfect tyre for 'fast road' and some track use. work from lower temps than a dedicated track tyre (r888)

    Gearbox replacement (chances of money back)

    Tell him he either pays that or fully refunds the heap of s**t he sold to you. Make it sound like he has no choice, not saying your car is a heap, these things happen. But I'd be making him back into a corner

    Gearbox replacement (chances of money back)

    Tell the dealer they have to pay the £600, as renault are covering the rest. You shouldn't have to pay a penny

    Syron Street Race Semi Slicks - Review

    Lol! Yeah, if your happy with them now, you'll enjoy them more and more as they wear. And don't be shy in keeping them on down to the markers either, that's when they're at their best in the dry weather. Even with a hammering on my 200, they always wore evenly, outside walls are brilliant.

    Syron Street Race Semi Slicks - Review

    Yes, much much better. They were amazing with ^that tread, with less movement and all that, was gutted to be taking them off. But obvious reason, it was dire in anything more than damp with just that tread left, I've still got them to use on some track wheels when I get some

    Syron Street Race Semi Slicks - Review

    AD08's are a well known brilliant tyre. I was going to get them again too, but just fancied trying these for the price. Id happily use an AD08 again. Mine coming off: ​had my use out of them! Lol

    ***How much is it worth?***

    I'd be thinking 3000-3200 top end If the belts do get done and a fresh MOT

    £2,500 is too cheap! The rs2 inlet is worth 1K.

    Syron Street Race Semi Slicks - Review

    Hi all, thought I'd do a Review in here so everyone can have some knowledge on what they are like, especially as they're an unknown brand more or less. And I know some people stick with well known branded tyres, like myself, but bit the bullet and tried these. So 225/45-17 Tyres. £266 for 4...

    Clio 200 Options + Buying advice

    Will you be getting rid of yours come warranty ending then? i don't see what the fuss is about? It's about £400 for a gearbox rebuild? Making it sound like an expensive fault on 4 wheels

    Clio RS200 running costs

    Jesus, these replies... obviously if that's what your getting on your work commute, your commute is obviously awful. everyone's is different, so the mpg will differ. I averaged 37.7 mpg on my commute coming home yesterday. So obviously to me, they're great on fuel. That shows the car is, or...
