theres one in dundee where i live .a nimbus grey and its defo a grower.moreso after reading the full review in performance french car.basically the 197/197 cup is not really very good at all according to renault.i know its a sales pitch for the 200 but its quite dissapointing when u read all the...
car looks sweet,wheels look class too.maybe change skirts but its down to personal choice,shouldnt just follow suit and do whats expected.thats what makes a car stand out.
LOOKING TO BUY A CUP BOOT SPOILER FOR MY 08 197 CUP.how easy are they to fit.i.e does the spoiler have to be drilled and bolted on through the boot at the top as im worried at the prospect of renault in dundee doing the job of fitting and painting it etc.any help welcome.feel quite bad at not...
great choice.mines a cup .test drove a 197 before i got mines and wasnt allowed to go above 50 on the test drive.i changed from an impreza sti import and the cup defo handles better in my opinion.done 7000 miles now and still get the buzz when b-road blasting.
just before christmas around forty cars got keyed all over dundee in the space of a week,i wasnt one which was lucky but a mates got proper keyed and paint strippered too.gutted for you mate.
the cup is still as stuttery as hell after the full ecu re-write 2 days ago.cant be arsed with the car now.ive been told theres nown they can do.i say yes as ive garaged the heap and use my rattly,leaky doored transit class
my car is an 08 ,its been in renault in dundee.they have re-written the ecu but its no different really,ive always used v-power fuel too.so its not fuel like they keep telling me.poop.im thinking of taking car back and buying a 172 cup they got as a trade in.197 is very dissapointing so far.gutted
ive taken my 197 cut to my local renault dealer and they have no info on any cold start faults,therefore they refuse to fix problem.if anyone has info or a contact number for a main dealer which has the software it would make my day as i can get clio fixed.
