[Gally]

Not much change apart from price then. Goid value used.

 

[Knuckles]

Why can't you jetwash matt paint?

 

[plymcl172]

I know this had been in a thread before but the fact this car is grey is stupid ! Everyone knows it should be raider blue or dont bother !

 

[Adam.]

Why can't you jetwash matt paint?

It f***s with the finish and makes it shiny.

 

[MonkeyKnifeFight]

It f**ks with the finish and makes it shiny.

A bit of 40 grit would sort that out

 

[plymcl172]

so what happens when you are going 100mph and its raining hard? sure this is worse ?

 

[Martin_172]

1000mph maby lol

 

[CabinFever]

So it's a 20k 200 that you can't wash. Brilliant.

 

[Eddie.]

I like it, but I knid of feel it's too expensive, the best thing about the clio was it's value for money, "always the cheapest and usually the most agile"

This isn't really good value?!

 

[leeds_182]

Looks nice but the price tag is a bit of a piss take.

 

[Jimbo_M]

Looks nice but the price tag is a bit of a piss take.

+ 1, my thoughts exactly. I really like it but i doubt i would pay the extra over a normal 200 cup for one :s

 

[alanc1000]

I think it looks amazing.

 

[Adam.]

It does look pretty epic. It's like a meaner version of Storm Grey (which is full of win).

 

[Jamie16v]

I'd prefer a standard 200 for 5k less

 

[Eddie.]

If need be, get a cup for around half the price and get it wrapped in the same colour! Still be much cheaper!

 

[MikeoftheQuays]

Looks ace. And if the price of ownership is not being able to do 100mph in driving rain then I'm okay with that.

 

[mantis946]

Rare > Common > Very Common > Over Doing > Completely over the top > Renault

Ugh.

 

[Knuckles]

It f***s with the finish and makes it shiny.

So have they lacquered the paint? (I know some matt finishes have a special lacquer that adds protection but not gloss)

As there's a part of my car that's just paint and not lacquer and jet washes still haven't made that shiny lol.



That comment isn't meant to sound retarded... Honest

That comment isn't meant to sound retarded... Honest

You sure? lol.

 

[Knuckles]

You sure? lol.

I tried my hardest but I'm sure it sounded like I was trying to polish my car with a jet wash lol

 

[Poopensharten]

I love that, unsure on the matt paint - looks the b****cks but unsure how it would fare up in the long term. 21k is expensive.

 

[Bobby.]

21k for a 200, might as well get a 250.

 

[ColinG]

how many times....no one ever pays list price...


there is new raiders on the renaultsport forum sat in dealers and unregistered, for less than £20,000 and thats without haggling a bit extra off...

 

[Poopensharten]

[Poopensharten]

I cant see it, you need a log in?

 

[ColinG]

It's a red raider in the showroom, £19995

 

[M@tt_182]

Very nice but even at £19995 it' s a pricey little motor! Would be nice to see a few on the forum though....

 

[Adam.]

Unfortunately, the lights aren't the most flattering lights for the colour, but it does look amazing.

Adam

£349 a month

 

[MarkCup]

For only 500 miles a month too! That's some serious depreciation/finance cost.

 

[Tom]

LOL @ offer.

 

[Fred@BTM]

£21K for that? Seriously what drugs are Renault smoking? STOP WITH ALL THE LIMITED EDITIONS!

 

[ColinG]

I can't wait to see the comments on here when the mk4 RS Clio comes out and the basic versions are probably around £18k... The specials will prob reach £25k lol

 

[Gally]

20k for a Pink Clio? Can't you just buy Dave's Trophy?

Anyway I like seats.

 

[ColinG]

The matt red is pretty garbage to be honest...every pic I've seen so far just looks pink!!

 

[leeds_182]

Does look very pink in that picture.

 

[Gally]

I think the chap earlier in the thread said it's very pink in the flesh.

There's more chance of me impregnating Tyssen than there is buying a 200 Raider.

 

[Jordi17]

Too dear, although i clicked on the link and the Corsa Nurburgring in green, wow :hail:

Arch gaps not big enough for you?
