im going for a 197 test drive on weds!!

[ColinG]

my dealer gets their demo in on tues..they said it will be the megane F1 colour

so wednesday should be fun!!

 

[polarbert]

You sure? Thought they weren't coming till later in the month.

 

[sh33n]

I haven't had a call yet

Didn't know they were doing the F1 colour on the 197?!

 

[ColinG]

so he said anyways..just rang me yesterday said its coming tues morning, they need to PDI it etc..so anytime i wanted after that

Jeremy said that demonstrators will start arriving at dealers from June 26th onwards, would be very surprised if they are as early as next week, I thought most would be tied up with the press in the UK at the moment...?

And the Megane F1 is Ultra Blue, the Clio 197 blue colours are Albi and Racing...unless the information available from Renault is incorrect, the dealer is wrong.

 

[ColinG]

well i guess we will see on tuesday if it comes in...

 

[sh33n]

Maybe it's for the Megane, and the salesman doesn't know the difference between a Megane and a Clio? lol.

 

[Clio 1.216v Dynamique]

Lucky you, love to drive one of them beasts

A dealer not knowing what he is talking about? Wash your mouth out..... :clown:

 

[ukaskew]

So...how did it go?! I'm 99% sure the dealer never got within 500 miles of a 197 on Tuesday.

 

[GazCB]

Albi blue > ultra blue

Ultra blue looks non-metallic.

 

[Bluebeard]

we should be getting ours any time from tomorrow morning til tuesday evening.... cannot wait!

 

[Neil G]

Lucky people

 

[Englebert]

Do Renault do extended test drives? I want to have a go in the 197 but a 10 minute potter about doesn't really do anything for me.

 

[GazCB]

Yeah, I wouldn't mind an extended test drive in a meggy 225. If I was ever to buy one new, I'd need to know it's a happier ownership prospect than a 172 rather than just knowing it's great fun to drive for 15 minutes.

Maybe it's for the Megane, and the salesman doesn't know the difference between a Megane and a Clio? lol.

PMSL

I bet u cant mate... would like to see what the 197 drives like... im sure it will be quite different to the 172!

 

[DebV6]

The dealer probably can't tell the difference between the Megane F1 Blue and Racing Blue on the clios!
