Tempting.....

[Dafthead]

Had a quote for a new Clio 197 Cup in White with Recaro's and Speedlines for £13,775 OTR

Insurance is coming out at £351

Was thinking of a 2 Year old Golf GTi for about £16,000 but this is looking quite appealing at the mo.....

Someone stop me

 

[Sarah]

go for it......shame its posted in the wrong section

VAGs are no fun

 

[Beef-Mc]

You know you want to come back to a Clio

 

[Dafthead]

Fcuk's Sake, I've only been on here 6 years and still can't work the damned thing!

Only thing the Golf has going for it is a remap to 240 hp & better residuals.

Arrrghhh

P.S. Can a mod please move this thread ta

Never had one mate!

Previous car was a Cooper S

 

[Sarah]

just think.......smile factor.....harder to get that in a golf

 

[Dafthead]

But am 30 this year, Should a 30 year old be driving a white clio?
I dunno

 

[Sarah]

never too old for a nice handling car...........well 30 is old

 

[Dafthead]

f**king cheeky ho, Should spank you for that

 

[Sarah]

f**king cheeky ho, Should spank you for that

yeah i think 30 yo look better in an old mans golf

 

[Jay]

Do it! I think you should go to the Renault garage in the morning and place your order!

 

[clvs2222]

thats a really good quote for a 30 year old. my mothers is £300 on her coopper and she has over 20 years of driving experence with no convictions or claims, sorry to make it into another "what you payin for insuance" thread

 

[Fletcher]

I'd go for the 197 cup, great spec too.

 

[Dafthead]

Am gonna test drive one this week sometime I think

Then am going to drive to IoM and falcon punch Sarah right in the babymaker

 

[Fletcher]

^^^^lol

 

[seb]

you'll be hit hard by the mpg too, as i guess the golf does decent mpg.

 

[Final Maxim]

pick up a 2nd hand 197? save even more cash

buying brand new clios is a mugs game considering depreciation

all imo of course

 

[seb]

buy mine in november if you like

 

[Ali]

Golf GTi is horrid imo

 

[Sarah]

[Phoenix]

[R20 CWH]

[Blinkin182]

Gotta b the GTI if only for the Rupert the Bear's trouser material seats that they have.

 

[theduck]

[conneh]

Buy another Cooper S... with 220Bhp

 

[The Boosh!]

You have never had a clio but been a member of a clio forum for 6 years.

i laughed out loud at that :lolup:

 

[Dafthead]

It's cos I love you all

Also been on Scoobynet for 6 years and never had a subaru haha

 

[madhops87]

Buy it, buy it now!

 

[Dafthead]

Have got a test drive of an LY R26 F1 this Saturday @ Donchavster, whilst I like the looks of the clio over the meg, I think the engine/LSD combo makes the meg a much better proposition, plus the insurance is coming out at £420 and i'd love a remap too TBH

I'm still not 100% on the meg looks though.

 

[Dafthead]

Arrrrrgh!!

Test drove R26 and GTi back to back, they were both so much fun, the GTi had it on build quality and interior feel but the R26 was noticably livelier under power.

Testing a Focus ST today

Your never too old, I'm 36 and I went from a "mature" car BMW 325i Sport to a Clio Trophy!

The Megane R26 has been consistently rated above the Golf and Focus in a number of magazines and is Evo's favorite hot hatch at the moment. Of those you've considered, I'd pick the R26. But it depends on what you want out of the car and what sort of driving you do. Apparently the Megane dci175 isn't far off in terms of every performance plus does 40+mpg, some thing to consider with petrol prices the way they are.:dapprove:
