My Ultra Red Renaultsport 200.

[Hixle]

Massively jealous mate. Love it.

Lol at still not getting a pic of the front though!

 

[Turkish]

Like the red, still not a fan of the front end and still think the mk3 looks a bit unbalanced at the back end without a larger spoiler on it tbh. Glad you're enjoying it mate but can't help but feel the mpg vs performance is ludicrous lol

 

[Munson]

Don't fit 18s. It'll look over-wheeled.

PMSL at 23mpg. I can average that. Kinda...

 

[Jimbo_M]

Looks fooking epic dude, bet your looking for excuses just to pop out in it now lol

 

[ukaskew]

Loving the Ultra Red, shot one 5 years ago, couldn't believe how vivid it was compared to a Trophy (or most other red cars)

My favourite pic showing the colour off: http://chrisharrison.smugmug.com/Cl...o-F1-Team-R27/DSC3766b/220032532_AF3Uf-XL.jpg

Awesome. So nice. Absolutely the best colour.

I'd have got a cup spoiler on there, but other than that it's spot on.

 

[Marky_]

Living the dream now.

Great spec

 

[Turkish]

Living the dream now.

Not yet he's not.

 

[Marky_]

Chris isn't ever going to get a Japanese car. He doesn't even like them does he?

 

[Poopensharten]

I could not be hooped with that mpg for the performance it offers.

37mpg is where its happening.

 

[.GAZ.]

16-18mpg is where it's happening Daniel'san.

 

[Poopensharten]

Using it a few days of the month to not be arsed about mpg ftw?

 

[.GAZ.]

Exactly.

 

[James28]

You finally had it delivered then! I know there's been much hype on here about this.
Looks awesome though, Brilliant colour. Can't wait to see what you do with it. Congrats!

 

[chriscummins7]

Brilliant mate, chuffed for you! Can't wait to see it when you get KWs and the akrapovic.

 

[Christopher]

Cheers everyone.

Ill get some better pictures at the weekend once it's been DA'd.

 

[Owen]

Looks great Chris. Would love to have a brand new car someday, might actually succeed in keeping the paint in half decent condition then.

 

[Christopher]

They don't come perfect from Dieppe though, that's why I'm having to DA it this weekend. lol.

I think they'll still be a few defects I can't remove because I'm only using a finishing pad and a mild compound. I don't want to go too harsh since the paint's still new!

I'm going to book it in with Russ @ Midlands Car Care for the summer, once I'm back from Le Mans.

 

[Eddie.]

I'm going to book it in with Russ @ Midlands Car Care for the summer.

Might be worth contacting him now, if you haven't already, in all seriousness.

He's pretty busy, when I was there he said he was booked up until about August?..

 

[Christopher]

Yeah, we've spoke on the 200 forum so I'll be giving him a booking this weekend.

Excellent news is excellent

 

[Cliotoby]

MPG willonly improve lol.

My lowly GT was averaging 19mpg for the first month.

Now I average 28. But I drive it hard.

Looks lovely, best colour.

 

[Harpham]

I averaged 30mpg on super, when I had mine.

I want to see front end photos, Chris. What size plate did you go for? Same as what I did on mine?

 

[.Adam.]

Is it the gear ratios that make these relatively poor on MPG?

 

[Silent_Scone]

I'd love to average 23mpg lol.

 

[Christopher]

Yup! I'll get you a pic in a bit, but it's the same as your old one and Jay's AG.

 

[Gray]

Looks lovely Chris, properly nice.

But OUCH at the MPG, my 303bhp r26 averages 28mpg

 

[aucky]

Nope, paints have been lead-free for years. It's just a different colour to Capsicum (pink)

Park mine next to a Trophy and the Trophy will look faded even it it was brand new. You can't tell otherwise though.

Sod off lol.

 

[Christopher]

Sh*t isn't it?

If it starts to average around 30mpg I'll be happy. I 100% expected it to be thirsty anyway.

 

[Christopher]

Sod off lol.

LOL

Bought one yet?

 

[welshname]

I'm sure it will be around that when the novelty of the car wears off.

 

[aucky]

LOL

Bought one yet?

Spending it on the house for now. Put my sensible hat back on :|

 

[Leeshez]

Mighty fine motor car there Christopher.

 

[*Badger*]

Nice! Painful consumption mind, I can (sometimes) average more than that in the M3.

 

[The Boosh!]

MPG is s**t in all of them until they've got a few miles on them Chris, they gradually get better. Guy I used to work with had a white one from new doing the same as yours but by the time he gave it back it was doing 30mpg give or take

 

[Brian]

Not bad at all, Christopher. I'll give you 8 out of 10 (for effort)

 

[Christopher]

I'll hopefully get a nine after tomorrow's/Sunday's effort. lol.

 

[Brian]

I'm impressed you're only aiming to achieve a 9! saving the 10 for next month!?

 

[Christopher]

A ten will be when it's 20mm lower, 20mm wider with my Akrapoviç on.

 

[Rob]

Not actually sure how I missed this but it looks mint. Perfect spec mate, well in.

Genuine question though, how on earth have Renault managed to achieve worse MPG than I get from the 3.0???? Like seriously, how is that even possible???
