K-tec stealth could be a shout. Ive got the super sport, its loud

Steering rack bushes it sounds like (for all) This or you need new top mounts possibly. Its hard to see whats worn because theres not really any sign that they are worn

If you were to replicate it it can be quite expensie as the panels and other body parts are astrenomically expensive from Renault as im sure your aware :( Maybe get a set of nice wheels and lowering springs, maybe colour code it and just save the cash for a 172/182

Hang about, thats been on here before. Im sure someone said there was a few things not right about it??? Panel alignment at the front or somthing? Im not overly sure mate just go over it with a fine tooth comb with it if you do decide to get it

Test. You passed it, lol

Sounds like you'z want tae shag tbh

Lolly pop stick with double sided tape?

Two infact mate, very good cars, really enjoyed it. The button start/keyless entry is very novel. I drove an older 06 plate one then a 57' plate one with some of the revisions with regard to the gearbox iirc? We managed to get the 197 for almost 3 hours without the burden of a salesman...

Looks like you have decided what you want :o

Are all the Exclusives plaqued like the Trophies? The best owners register ive seen is the once for Civic Jordan owners. The list compiles nearly all the 500 built including write offs and crash damage examples!

I thought they were only doing them in green,blue and white?

Im always very curious of how people react to getting a 197 after being a 172/182 owner. The 5k kick for instance? You hardly have to wait to get it to move. Call me old fashioned (because i own a Phase 1) But there are no flatspots to speak of is there? Its a 1998cc petrol that weighs little...

Hmmm, not so sure about the white, doesnt really show its lines off aswell as the blue/green It would have to be blue or green for me and im not all keen on the green either :o

Could so with stickers. Possibly of the Aids variety. f**k the haters

FLOL, well spotted that man

My phase 1 172 was registered on March 3rd 2001. She has 56,798 on it Hopefully itll do double that

A drop in the ocean as far as hot-hatch ownership goes imo

Well as i own a Phase 1 i disagree. Why is it nicer? Because there are more buttons to press and the plastic is made in outer mongolia rather than downtown nagasaki? Its all the same to me mate, i bought it because its fast and gives me good fuel consumption. If i wanted to be at one with...

Yes any that are registered before March the 1st 2001. When was mine registered? Thats right, March 3rd 2001. £270 the b******s

Correct, the main difference being that to get a 182 to put out 300bhp you would probaly need a bout 10k lol

It seems the biggest bug bear from the masses tbh, fair enough but if it was the toss up between buying a well cared for and cherished phase 1 and a neglected heap of a Phase 2. My money would go on the Phase 1. Pish interior or not lol

FLOL @ the nasty interior Who looks at the dash when driving or is that the reason so many Phase 1's have been written off/crashed? I chuckle everytime i read that pisch

Indeed. Just found a tin lol

Also keep in mind that the Phase 1 has a shorter throttle cable and a shorter ratio gearbox coupled with 15" wheels. Some say its the fastest, but whose counting :o

The Cup owners Bible ;)

Wouldnt say all cars are worth buttons, id say some have better residual values than others. Thus far the Vauxhall Vectra being an example being worth effectivley buttons to what they were new. All cars deprerciate, given. Some not as bad as others, Alot of car for 10k though the Vectra...

To be fair though, thats a fairly honest advert. Id feel far more convinced buying a cat c if it was being explained as an honest repair than travelling a few hundread miles to find its a pup :o Id buy that tbh, maybe not for those monies though

Oh hai gally x

Why is it girls always take pics holding the camera slanty ways? LOL? Welcome love, watch for Zippo. Hes a sexual predator

Same as everything else is hilarious, SWT, pedo bear etc etc Just because you dont like it doesnt mean it gives you the right to dish out the grief You do know this isnt General chat tho eh?
