We had an opportunity to upgrade our 197 and looked at the following possibilities 1. Another 197 with upgraded spec 2. A new Impreza WRX - ugly but a very impressive drive 3. A Leon Cupra - MoH thought it ugly 4. Focus ST2 - Reputation for having a drink problem In the end it came...

Can someone tell me what tyre pressures they are running their 197's at? I read the manual and it said if the car was going on the motorway you should have the tyre pressures as full load, which I find a bit too hard on the country/ cr%p roads of Wiltshire.

Can anyone tell me if the Recaro's as found in the F1 can be "transplanted" into a 197 or does the seat use a different mounting mechanism/runners etc.

Our import car has the standard radio fitted. This I understand means we have 4 speakers. Is it possible to fit 2 speakers in the empty pods behind the front seats? For example will the wiring be in place and can the standard radio handle 6 speakers?

Ok so the 197 has now just done over 1,000 miles and as suggested by the members of Cliosport.net the car has definately loosened up. So can anyone tell me what is the next milestone in terms of improvement in perferomance???? My past BMW diesels and Vauxhall VXR's were definately...

Can anyone tell me if all 197's do this when new. At very low speed, say when just about to stop at traffic lights doing less than 5mph the brakes (I think it's the back) make a groan/squeek. I had this once before on a Citroen C4 only when it was in reverse. The end result was that it...

Have just been down to the local renault dealer. I have managed to get a set of mats with no problem. Unfortunately I have not been able to obtain any locking wheel nuts from them. They managed to get the part number, but the system showed that they were not available, not even in...

We collected the 197 last night from Motorpoint and so far are very pleased with it, after doing about 90 miles in it. I'm now just waiting to get some locking wheel nuts and mats for it. Can anyone tell me which number you call for Renault to get the full warranty?

I've read a few reports saying that the 197 is not a great car on the motorway due to it being quite high reving. Are they really that bad? We have had in the past an Astra VXR, how would it compare to that for example?

Hi All, Have just joined Cliosport following our purchase of a 197 in Nimbus Grey from Motorpoint in Newport. We should be collecting it during the 1st week of September. Can anyone tell me how the cars differ at all, with the exception of the warranty. In particular I am trying to find...

Just thought I would drop by and introduce myself. As you can see my name is Catherine and I am from Wiltshire. My partner and I have just put a deposit down on a 197 at Motorpoint and we are collecting it during the 1st week of September. The car is Nimbus Grey and is pretty much...
