New Car (200 deals)

[trailerparktrev]

You failed.

Black speedlines are the only option i'm afraid.

I was of that opinion until I got my Deep Black 200. The standard Cup wheels suit the car superbly.

You're a scot, who paid money for a yellow puma. Your taste is poor, your opinion void.

You bought a bog standard 200.

The case rests your honour.

Still pwns a yellow puma. Your opinions are deep fried.

Car of the year.

I'm going to reply to your text/facebook stuff on here because i'm lazy...

I LOVE it mate! Its bloody brilliant! Its tripe on the motorway, but then it will get used on a motorway about twice a year so its not worth worrying about. And as for running it in, don't be so daft. I've driven it just as hard as Boris Vodkashot would have driven it off the boat so theres no issues with that!

Good stuff! Like you say, the cup doesn't work well on mways, but great off them. I def made the right choice given the use mine gets. Enjoy.

Ps, if you get chance to speak to the vinyl guy, I still want mine doing and my brothers twingo (the front number plate recess in black). Xx

 

[Bluebeard]

I've spoke to him already, and i'm going down next week. I will give him your number.

I don't know if its the Cup suspension that makes it crap on the motorway, because i'm used to driving big old german barges. (we went up in my 528 touring! lol) so i'm unsure how much of my observation is down to completely different car comparisons.

I'm so so so so impressed wth the handling and the speed of the steering though. So much so I came off the motorway 10 miles early so I could come home down the back lanes!

 

[Will.]

Just out of intrest, who is your man? My dad is a signwritter and does lot's of things for people in and around Bristol.

[Will.]

Nope. Not him lol.

I have done 650 motorway miles in 1 day, over 10h in the 200 Cup I own, as long as you have the Recaros it is perfectly comfortable on motorway IMO.

It's all relative and my previous cars were S2000, MR2 Turbo, Accord Type R, Civic VTi - So it might be I'm used to hard suspension and lots of noise

My previous company cars have been the usual A4, 3 Series etc and they are better for mile munching, but then they also bore the pants off you.....

Not a totally unflawed comparison, but that's my experience

 

[Munson]

FFS where's the pics already?

 

[Harpham]

Well done Harpham, you obviously have a pair afterall. Disappointed about the lack of bling options though

Lol... it had to be done tbf, just needed to make sure i could afford it

The only option that i wanted was the Cup Spoiler, but at £400 it wasnt worth it...

I was also tempted by the monitor, but when am I going to need to see my 0-60 times n what not lol

 

[jenic]

Congrats Paul :approve:

Just the boggo £995/£205 offer for you then, bargain!

Yup

I actually upped the mileage limit on it though to 7k per year to give me a bit of lee-way.. Only £3 a month extra.

 

[mark_182_54]

how much was it to take it up to 15 k a year ??

 

[172boost]

OMFG... Just ordered mine!!

Possibly the craziest thing ive ever done.

Well done lad. You've got that shitty wait now until it arrives :rasp:.

Dan - pics. The end.

 

[Curley]

I'd love this deal but the cup was just way to poverty for me. I love my toys (oo err). Once I specced Recaros, AC and speedlines the payments were nearly at £300 PCM.

Opted for the Gordini (just urgh) with everything on the option list and cup pack. Just waiting on black speedlines to arrive then it'll be getting picked up. 182 is going in the morning very sad day.

 

[Harpham]

Well done lad. You've got that shitty wait now until it arrives :rasp:.

Dan - pics. The end.

I dont know how im going to cope lol... Im already absolutely buzzing about it!

 

[GiT]

My deal I just got and ordered - 3 days ago....

RS 200 (Full Fat) - Cup Chassis - RS Monitor Pack - Glacier White.

OTR = £18,700 odd...

Got it for £15,500 (£500 deposit - 24 x £275 on selections) 4.4%apr.

AKA - spot on!

 

[GiT]

Just bog standard mate.
Ordered 200 Cup in RB. I did want to Cup Spoiler but isnt really worth an extra £400 tbh, it looks awesome, but not £400 awesome

It's £200 on the options list, £400 on the ACCESSORIES list....

 

[Harpham]

It's £200 on the options list, £400 on the ACCESSORIES list....

What??? Ill get on the phone to them on Monday then to see if they can change that... Told me £395 for the Cup spoiler and £195 for GT Spoiler.
That was the one thing I actually wanted, and was willing to pay about £200 for it...

 

[GiT]

Well, I thought there was only the 1 spoiler for the rear... one with the triangular end plates?

Only other spoiler i've seen is...

These are about £110+v at a dealers...

But if i'm wrong - I do apologise - i'm very new to this!

 

[GiT]

Hmmmm... looking in to it, it gets confusing...

£200 'GT' spoiler may be the one that slightly sticks out with the Brake Light on it... the Cup one - with the end plates (poss £400).

As I say - confusing lol

 

[GiT]

OK... 'GT' Spoiler...

[Harpham]

Yup the GT one just sticks out slightly more, with a brake light. He said that was £200 and the Cup spoiler, with the "fin" type things on the ends is £400.

 

[jenic]

Doesn't the GT spoiler have to be ordered with the car since it uses a different tailgate? Whereas the cup one fits the standard tailgate. I'm sure Brian mentioned something about this when he got his?

 

[GiT]

I've learnt something new then - the option spoiler is a different look to the cup! Good grief!

So - if you like the Cup Spoiler - £400 unpainted please says Mr Renault lol

 

[roystinho]

You can get the cup spoiler cheaper than that. There's a lad on RS forum knocking them out under £200 iirc.

You can still fit the GT to any tailgate too, just requires drilling instead of pre drilled holes , no biggy

My preference is GT, then cup, then none, all the other spoilers just, excuse the pun, spoil the rear of the car imo

 

[Gally]

If you don't order speedlines, you're mental.

 

[jenic]

Cup spoiler can be had here for much less

http://www.k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=2415&appid=3

Also, I agree with gally, for £190 they may aswell be had, bargain!

 

[Gally]

Flol! £190 and people don't spec them.

Mental.

 

[GiT]

Looks too "Max Power" for me.

The GT spoiler (now i've seen 1) looks ok - but not worth £200 IMHO.

 

[penfish4]

So I'm mental for not specifying Speedlines and spoiler on a car I'll keep for two years? I'd rather spend my £400-600 elsewhere.

+1 ... Although I would have liked the spoiler

Why be a sheep anyway and get what everyone else is getting?

 

[GiT]

I was in the same boat... £180 for the Speedlines - no point. Getting Anthracite wheels in the Cup pack & and they ain't dark enough, i'll get them Powder coated for £140 a darker grey.

Spoiler (cup one) gives the car a whiff of a Scalextrix racer to me!

 

[Jamie]

Just drove to Scotland (380 miles) - got 35mpg sat all the way at 80mph. Expected more. Do have exhaust mods. Maybe I should get a 200 as Brownie gets that now too.

Don't get me wrong, I would like the Cup spoiler but it's not worth £200 a year.

 

[Harpham]

Yep, exactly!

Im extremely happy with what will be coming to me anyway! At 21 years old, I cant complain at having a "bog standard" brand new Clio 200 Cup lol.

 

[Munson]

Any pics yet?
