197 Test Drive

[powello9]

Test drove a 197 yesterday, never been so disapointed in my life. Sales man even tried to sell it to me as 'Good round town!!!' Gutted, light steering, light clutch, heavy car, under powered, bad gear ratio's. Hope the Cup is better, can only get better i surpose. Never enjoyed my 182 more when i jumped back in it.:approve:

Just had one today. Bless the salesman I had. Tried his best to sell it. In all fairness its a great car for the Miss' or anyone else who wants a refined drive. Its got some good toys, bit more space in the back. However a bad use of that 2.0 VVT engine.

The so called ''5k kick'' is quite absent and hard to notice even all the way up tp 7250rpm. I do like the new 17'' wheels and its meaty front and rear brakes look impressive, but not my '172 cup' of tea
