Its a similar response to what you'd get on here if someone said their suzuki swift or similar could keep up with an rs clio.You get it on every forum.

IIRC the 197 weighs about 1,240kg
I like how civilised the discussion was on the scooby forum, no-one got angry and no-one took the piss,
if you had the same topic on here it would just end up in name calling and hatred.

Must all be grown ups, and not spotty sheep who follow there mates.
RS 182 CUP
Flol @ the CS hate.
I've never read such a biased thread. I think this place is sometimes diverse in it's car thoughts. There are of course the twisties crew who think their Clio is a world beater.
Nobody forces you to be here mate. Moaners united recently!

80% I enjoy reading. The rest of the time it gets silly tbh, and for the most I stay away from those thread.
Regardless there aren't many, if any, forums on the internet that are as informative as helpful as this one. I'm a member on a Mini forum, I won't name which. And that is full of complete t*ssers.

Christ that is heavy! I take back what I said then.
182
They seem like a reasonable bunch. Like most forums they have a couple of w*****s thrown in there but it's to be expected. I've yet to come across a forum that doesn't have it's resident dickheads.

Many Things
Looks like a balanced argument from some owners.
I'm probably guessing the guy who test drove the 197 probably put his foot down low revs, caught out by the lack of boost and the involvement needed to drive it. I think he didn't do his research before going to look at it.
I thought it would be a long time before I could keep up with a scooby in my time driving,but to my suprise even my old saxo vts used to hound them all day long. As soon as they're mapped though its bye bye

There's a finite speed that any sensible person threads a car down a b-road anyway. Never understood why some people seem to think power means you're gonna be twice as fast everywhere. An old one litre Mini could keep up with most things on a windy lane.
RE: straight line speed, let's be honest, the 197 hardly snaps necks, so he's not exactly telling fibs about his experience in the car.

my dad used to have a 197 a year or so back and we raced a standard scooby on a duel carrigeway , The scoobys have a lot more torque and we were going at 50ish so it left us but once you get the 197 in the rev range it flies! Basically just rev the tits of it and there isnt much that would win at that price range..
Evo 5 RS
LOL ^ as above
Sounds like a bit of a turnip this guy! You just feel like saying you're comparing a turbo saloon car, which I doubt is standard - to a N/A hot hatch... they're not going to have the same drive are they, you silly silly man!

172
yeah mate but tbf that thing did shift
Im not a massive fan boy, I dont love reanult because I like my 182, I judge every car pretty much impartially. I know the cars are very good at some things but heavily compramised in other areas. However moaning about it being plasticy? Coming from a scooby! Subarus are as plactic as the bathrooms of most of there pikey drivers mobile rape shed caravans! If your coming from a 7 series then maybe but its not built to be amazingly plush inside.
