"Ranga" Clio 197

[Ospi]

Picked up this beauty a couple of weeks ago and decided to do a bit of a shoot.

 

[VIICarCare]

Nice pics, like the last one!

 

[Scott™]

Some nice pictures, but you need to practice moving shots more. Car looks well.

[toomer]

Very nice mate!

 

[bluecup182]

Love the car.

Got to love the Aussie Renault's.....

By the way gloss black wheels will look horn.

 

[Kane.]

Not a fan of red but i really like this. Nice pics too.

 

[Austin-182]

Nice mate! Love seing pics frim different countries!

 

[Ospi]

Update after a good clean!

 

[Simon@SprayShack]

That splitter + skirts are NICE! <3

 

[James28]

On this example I agree make it much more aggressive looking.

 

[ch!ppen]

Looks smart but needs spacers!!

 

[Turkish]

Spacers and black speedlines and it'll look spot on.

Thanks guys. Not a fan of the spacers though since I track it and don't want to fiddle with the geometry much and not overly keen on the additional sheer stresses as a result of spacer plates. Certainly looks wise they would be great though!

 

[Mr Pants]

Anthracite / dark alloys, get rid of the white stickers down the side and that is one lovely 197.

Love the skirts and splitter, they are so clean! lol.

Lose the sticker, get spacers, some negative camber and wax it like there's no tomorrow..!

They're talking about hubcentric spacers which are perfectly safe for track use.

 

[BlazeYouQuick]

I agree with everyone, dark alloys and some spacers and it'll be perfection.

Lovely car no matter what though.

 

[Martin_172]

very nice, needs black speedlines to finish it off with the splitter and skirts! and im not usually a fan of black wheels!

 

[Ospi]

Thanks guys. Got it detailed today as seen below. Next step, Bebop wheels going black, however the shade I have not decided yet, I'm thinking a charcoal more than a standard black. After that getting a Akrapovic exhaust and then I HOPE my wallet will strop haemorrhaging lol.

Fun!

 

[Kieran..]

Lookin glamour matey

 

[couzens]

wow! stunning example!

 

[Ovi]

What modification you need to do to put the new headlights?

 

[Ospi]

What modification you need to do to put the new headlights?

Nothing actually it's a straight swap, just have to remove the height motors from the original and install into the new headlights and bobs your uncle!

Thanks for the comments guys

 

[leeds_182]

Mint.

 

[Gaz_]

Don't get spacers they make it twitchy as f**k

Looks well mate

 

[Ospi]

Yeah I'm not touching spacers, not going to fiddle with anything relating to the suspension geometry, handles like a dream now, not going to hamper that for the sake of looks.

 

[Ospi]

Wheels back and on, I think...I think I am done.

 

[Sanders]

Looks well mate, red really suits the 197/200

 

[.Adam.]

Amazingly nice.

UR>Everything else.

 

[Wests Renault]

love this car!

 

[Fred@BTM]

how much do they cost in Aus?? I've been thinking about exporting them from the UK

 

[Ospi]

Thank guys!

Cost wise, a 197 2nd hand with approx 10-30k on the clock will sell for 22-25,000 AUD (14,000-16,000 pounds). They are expensive here. A new 200 Trophee goes for 26,000 pounds lol.
