[trailerparktrev]

As everybody else has already said. V nice. I wish my R27 in the same colour would hurry up and arrive.

 

[Leeshez]

[MattT]

Nice one Giles!
There'll be no hanging around at the back of NW convoys in that will there!

 

[Giles]

Nice 197 btw!

Still got my RSi atm

No, trophies were Capsicum Red, whilst 197s are available in Ultra Red.

Best colour for them IMO.

Yeah. Looks kinda similar to capsicum in pictures. Probably nothing like each other in real life.

your clio is Capsicum Red btw

Nice one Giles!

when the car is cleaned at the dealers on arrival they usually give it a quik wash with a brillo pad and bucket of sand :clown:

 

[Adamhodg]

Congrats Giles
Nice new motor!

 

[Giles]

cheers Adam

pic of my seats

 

[fUbAr]

looks very nice, lovely seats!

I would have gone for the R27 to tighten up the suspension a little though.

 

[Alan]

The difference is pretty noticable matey...

The R27 is more sure footed over rough country roads..

i'd like to have a go in an r27 then if that is the case, as for me the standard 197 is better xc than my 182 was.

 

[Batman]

nice car matey, even though i still dont like the new clio i just cant seem to find it nice anyway in exterior looks, i do fancy those recaros in the my RB182 though

 

[GinandGasoline]

what spec Giles, other than Recaro's?

I notice no xenons... i thought you'd done a deal on a R27 with the prices they were being offered at though

No it not like the cup, think it same one the R27 but mine havn't got few mm drop.

Understand?

 

[fUbAr]

i understand perfectly mate... but there are only 2 suspension options; standard, and cup (as per R27).

you must have a special one which has a mixture of both lol

 

[Lagerlout]

Or you must be talking out your arse lol

How have you got the latest gear ratios? Was it built last week? lol
