whiter than white?

[seb]

I do note we seem to have a LOT of 197 cup's posted in media in the colour white. Warren4 made this point also.

Nothing wrong with that all, i do think it looks very sexy in white.

But has anyone bought one in a different colour? tbh, i don't even know what other colours you can get get.

RB? white? ... ... i just do not know!!!

So will white die a quick death and we will end up with a lot of white cars on the market or will it live long, hard and supreme within the 197 cup?

Its a really nice colour but I think if I was choosing one I would go for the blue.

Look at an old french hatch back from the 90's say a 205gti in white and they look tatty imo.

 

[seb]

rb?

nimbus is an option.

so white, RB, nimbus... anymore?

 

[Aluco]

narh not RB the other blue the metallic one !

The ultra red or w/e it is looks good too.

Nimbus is the only one showing as an optional colour on the official website.

I'm wondering if it will look a bit naff with the black plastic trim in Nimbus, no pics at all on google.

I get the feeling nimbus with black plastics will look like a poverty spec fiesta lol.

As far as I know white and racing blue are the only options. I'd go for racing blue personally, you only have to see Christophers 182 to see why!!

Edit - I've read the options above!!

 

[jimbo666]

bah, long live White

the only colours worth having are Nimbus, White and Ultra red imo.

 

[Pete.]

The only colours available for a Cup in this country are

Racing Blue
Glacier White
Nimbus

Can't buy a Cup in France or Germany interestingly enough.

bah, long live White

I would be quite surprised if many of the other colours have sold, people would want everyone to know that they have the "special edition", and white does look great.

I wonder how many standard cup-packed white 197s are out there?

Nope!!! There was a Nimbus Cup at my local dealer in the summer. Coupled with the Cup chassis (Red Brembos, anthricite wheels) it looked immense!!!

[MazzaR26]

What, ghey? :rasp:

 

[Peperami]

Nimbus cup sounds wicked.

Seb, anthracite wheels, red calipers. Soon.

 

[Gaz_]

^ indeed.

 

[172Petey]

White, RB an Nimbus are the only colours at the moment as stated, but im hoping they will add some more special colours to the range.

Where are the 197 inferno's!!!

 

[Bluebeard]

Nimbus, Red or White are the Only 197 colours worth having imo.

 

[MazzaR26]

What, ghey? :rasp:

Why you being a hater, is it coz I iz white?

 

[JR]

Nimbus, Red or White are the Only 197 colours worth having imo.

Amen reverent.

Nimbus would, with out a dount be my first choice though.

Spotted a nice Nimbus R27 on here in the past, couldnt live with those shitty recaros though, would rather sit on a milk crate. At least it would last untill the car was out of warranty.

 

[MikeLYR27]

I think white will die off tbh. Looks nice but think history will repeat it self, prob not for a while tho tbf. Its not just renault that have bought white back.

 

[cat171]

Weren't some of the 197 cup colours a cost option ? (sorry if it was mentioned I skim read it)

 

[Rich]

Surely the cheapy blue must have been free again like it was on the 182 !

 

[cat171]

^ fpmsl !

That's my list of colours in that order if i was buying another 197...i only took the Ultra Red R27 because it was too good a deal to pass up and being a limited edition it made it even better..

Dont be a hater, the Red is warm

Cars are treated diffrently now though remember

If kept on top of, itll shine as good the day it rolled off the picket line
