Google maps does however put Nashy at a 10 hour round trip. I don't mind travelling but there are some good examples a lot closer to home. On a more positive note, my little clio is in for body work today so I'm a step closer to selling it, which is a step closer to the 197.

Sounds like a plan, I'll see what she has to say about it. To be honest I'd sell the seats off cheap to get a pair of immaculate normal ones. Shouldn't be too hard I'm guessing as the majority like them surely?

Hvaing viewed Nashy's car I was set to bite his hand offf and have it away. However, my gf doesn't like the Recaros and as it's going to be both of ours I can't swing it. I've tried but it's non negotiable :( Shame really as that's a stunning example. I'm surprsied it hasn't been snapped up...

Thanks guys that a great help. Can't wait to get it!

Hi all, I'm currently looking at 197's and am starting to draw up a list of what I'm after. The question I have is, what come standard and what is an option. I need this so I know that car may have something even if it is not in the description i.e. I understand all of them are keyless entry...

Would there be space for the driver? Would surprise a hell of a lot of people on the roads though lol

A spaceship. Imagine the HP on one of those! MPG is on the low side though.

We wern't planning to but good to know for the future Daniel. To be honest all the renault franchises we've been looking at seem to average £2k higher than elsewhere so likely buy private. I work in insurance so I can background check the car myself.

From St Annes, What about yourself?. I didn't realise the Golf was cheaper to run, and they're bigger as well which I do live, but Golfs are everywhere now-a-days. Just have a look when your driving to work and you'll see 10, not all Gti's I grant you. I suppose you could argue the same...

Thanks for all the welcomes and help guys. Makes me chuckle that there are a few of us yet I never see any around Bristol which is why I've gone for this over a Golf GTI, great cars but too common. Would def be good to head along to some of the meets and gain a bit of knowledge. 72K or 5 years...

Cheers Needster for that. Hi MaceV6. Seems to be a few of us on here!

Howdy Bristol boys. Steve'O, that car in your avatar isn't the one parked on Whitby road most days by any chance is it? Long shot maybe, but it's a small world and all that

Hi everyone. Nice to be on the forums. My partner and I currently have an 05 1.2 clio which we are in the process of selling with a view to a 197. Originally we were looking at 1*2's however we've decided to go with the slightly newer one. From what I've seen the 1*2's are more fun but then...
