Major 172 spec changes

[sn00p]

I placed my order for a 172 a couple of weeks ago (got a delivery date in october), Ive just looked at the spec on the renault website and it seems to have quite a lot missing (from when I looked about 3-4 days ago):

Exterior Temperature Indicator

Drilled Aluminium Pedals

Optimum Gear Change Indicator

Alarm

R.A.I.D

Aluminium Finish Instrument Surround and Door Handles

Sports Body Styling

...and a whole load of other stuff.

Can anyone confirm that theyve either f**cked up the website or whether theyve genuinely taken all this stuff from the car, if they have Im not going to be a happy bunny...particularly as there is no mention of the car alarm.

Thanks.

Sounds like a feck up to me. Welcome to Renault ownership!

I already own a renault! (1.2 clio grande!)

Its not like they added anything (its if you do a version compare thing which gives you the spec)...I was just suprised that the list was about half the size it was the other day! If my car is missing any of that stuff Im going to go ballistic!

..sorry, Im guessing its a mess up too, because if you check the cup page it still mentions the alarm and all the other stuff!

..As it stands according to their website, the Cup has more stuff on it that the 172!

..oh dear...

..The wait is killing me though! Middle of october....I wont even be able to make (good, cool) use of my climate control when I finally get the car! Damn all you people whos 172s have already arrived and are waiting until september before picking them up!

The renault website is useless if you mess about with the options you can pay £15k for a 172 with a 1.2 16V engine instead

My local delership laughed when I told them abou ti saying them new how bad it was.

Just ring up your dealer to check the specification

Snoop - the configurator on the websites changed. Theres no spec change.
