[Fletcher]

Good price.

 

[Beef-Mc]

Looks like the surge to the 197 has begun.

Is it the R27 version?

Its not the R27, the stickers arent to our taste, if the R27 was lowered more than 7mm i would have been more tempted, would have liked the red calipers though!

 

[Shindig]

u dont have to have the decals on the R27!
might have saved urself a few bob going for the R27 with the deals going

 

[Fletcher]

^^^^What deals are these then?

 

[Ross M]

nice one .... another 197 to look out for.
what colour u go for ?

agree with the R27 thing tho

You dont need to take the roof decals, but you need to have the sides and front as its a special ed (i think:dead: )

Its basically the same when you add up the extra spec, but I wouldnt like to upset the pureists by removing all the R27 livery.

Im over the moon with what ive got anyway, so dont piss on my parade:rasp:

 

[Dyewitness]

cracking deal mate, puts mine to shame!

 

[IB172]

Now the 172s going I suppose i'll have to ditch the kappa tracksuit and burberry cap.

 

[Da]

Nice mate, congrats on the new motor!
I so wish the electronic folding mirror thingy was an option on the 182's! :dapprove:

 

[Dave H]

I'm sticking with my 182......however the 197 is growing on me....just needs 50bhp more. RB and yellow the best colours l think

 

[daydotz]

nice spec wish i had xenons on my new dynamique
ive got to wait till sept for it

 

[Gaz_]

[Daniel]

Awesome mate. Wait till it gets 5000 miles onit, sounds and goes bloody brilliantly!

Piece of advise then as you're getting it new.

Let it warm up, then thrash the living daylight out of it. Get it bedded in properly and you won't have to wait 30k miles before it gets faster.

Them 197's are nasty..
They look horrible..
There coming like the new corsa

I prefer the old clio shape looks more hardcore
then the space wagon 197

the back makes me violently ill

 

[ollie]

good choice

 

[Graham Gooch]

Thats the exact spec I'd choose If I was ordering one, although I'd choose Red or Racing blue over black

open your eyes!

Its not the year 2000 no more They are awesome.

 

[CupSport]

I call a porsche awesome.
I would never use awesome and Clio in the same sentance

 

[dave1980]

i think they look good, tempted to get one in the near future as my current 172 is only a stop gap until i get something i want after selling the scooby.

very tempted by they megane r26, had a 1.9 dci megane before and it was very spacious. couple that with great handling and 230bhp thats great.
watch this space.

the girlfriend has a new clio dci and its got miles more room compared to the earlier models. i could easily live with it.

they sound like a good buy, and when worn in seem even better. a lot of good reviews in the press too.

I was fully aware it was possible to get a 197 for under 13k, but as im not in the market for a poverty spec one so your not "raining on my parade" Add up the specs, it comes to £15230, so you are saving a grand total of £170, good for you buddy,
enjoy your chav chariot:rasp:

No ones forcing you to look at it, i dont patricularly hold your chav chariot in the highest respects, but i wouldnt waste my time bashing my keyboard about it making me violently ill, "There coming like the new corsa" that doesnt make sense son as the new clio was out BEFORE the corsa, so its the corsa looks like the new clio.

Nice one on the 197 purchase

I'm a big fan of the 197....definately progression in looks and probably performance (driven by average joe on normal roads).

 

[Alan]

Nice one matey...

Are you from East Kilbride??
