Dear Jeremy Townsend......

I think they are quite expensive loony but 2nd hand theyre very reasonable.

I want one, make it road legal, get some softer rate springs on it and go piss alot of people off in it

How much are cup racers to buy from Renault and do you have to be a race team to buy one? does anyone know.

£13k is you buy them in bulk that the complete car and box. One off your looking at £18k I think.

There was a racer for sale reciently though £0 I think they wanted with a bunch of spares.

Id love to buy one only problem is they need other stuff ie transporter to be used on track days.

 

[y0z2a]

anyone can buy one.

New - £23,000 inc vat & delivery to london.

cant get them anymore tho - last one was ordered last tuesday.

White shell, black/grey alloys. Super hot sex wee.

 

[fizzy_drink]

oooh...

... and something that requires less visits to the dealers for things going wrong...

... and something easily servicable yourself after a track-day (anyone tried to change their oil filter?!!)

w**k out of my price range anyway. How much they changing hands for used ?

 

[Iain C]

nice idea but not much good for a road car in a country run by people sh1t scared of speed

 

[CHRIS172CUP]

Is it not worth just stripping a standard one right back, moving the battery, fitting the magnesium 15s and fitting race coilovers on? That cant be far off a racer then??

 

[badinvincible]

Sequential box and seam welded cage too though?

 

[ricjax99]

Why cant they just sell these for £14K

[d4ve86]

u can buy them if you ring the teams that are on the renault sport web site, there are some not compeating due to funding. Apparently they go for between 7 to 12 k.

 

[badinvincible]

[Turkish]

7k sounds more like it, wonder how much to get it through an SVA

You could always but a crashed 172 etc or but a shell from J3ned for a few hundred quick and swop the plate round then using a Mk1 wiring loom wire up the electrics.

Id love one for £7k and quite honestly Id buy one (I know a of one for sale for that much reciently) but youd need a tow car realistically to use one.

 

[Fred@BTM]

Renault listened to me in the end then

 

[Jay]

It's cause you're the man Fred!

 

[Fred@BTM]

LOL!

 

[thecremeegg]

[drhowser]

[Rich]

Got to dream some times !

 

[Rob669]

Lol, they missed the target by quite some margin IMO (apart from the colour). Shame, I now have nothing to lust after so I'll just need to keep my172 for a while yet.
