Mine is going for a lot less than that: http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/127817.htm

I struggle to see how an early 1990s Renault 5 could even get near a Vee in the corners?

I love that clip. Bought my car off the back of seeing that. Not many cars on the road as special as the Clio V6 and well worth the money they are now.

The Vee is a great car. It is a rarity that has never been properly understood but in a way that is what makes it so special. I love reading comments about how they are not fast and can be outrun by a 182 or the likes... depends who is driving I guess. I have only ever come up across on 182 who...

I got mine serviced for free courtesy of Renault. Gave me a Modus to drive around in which I actually quite liked.

not many red ones about.

Has anyone? And if they have was it timed or just a kind of "this one felt faster" opinion?

Would be an interesting test. I think what people are sceptical about is the car becoming heavier? The one overiding thing that makes the 182 what it is is lightness... think back to the original Golf GTi and then what it was a few years ago – maybe not quite the same (and certainly nowhere near...

Very chav. Like most stuff from K-Tech

MK2 is a bit more powerful and has more friendly handling. It is the better car but they are both special. No comparion to a 172/182. The two cars are completely different. The 182 is a very competent FWD lightweight hot hatch. It was designed to get some people in the back and fit the shopping...

I doubt you'll find one for £14k. I saw that red one and it was only a fiver short of £15k. Did see a blue one ages ago for the same. £16k seems more like the bottom of the prices for the MK2 at the moment. Not that many of them around so it could well be keeping the prices up a bit. I went...

:) I was thinking; one postman, the other one letterbox!

Get a hotel room you cheap tart. She (or he) might stand some chance of enjoying it that way.

V6 no question really. I use mine as a daily driver and I think it is a practical choice compared with what I would have in place of it (Noble or Exige). The Megane is a nice looking car (even the rear!) but it is also based on an ordinary front wheel drive chassis and primarily designed for...

I thought the 197 was supposedly a bit to lardy? And that the one thing that made the 182 the car it is was lightness? Personally I wouldn't buy either but I have to say, I'd especially not buy a 197 as it looks like a sh1tstabber's car. A teenage girl would look great in one but anyone else...

Probably quite a good car for old people who are too old to drive proper performance cars any more. Can you imagine trying to get into something like an Exige at 80?!

That would be mine... were you in the new looking 182?. I always drive like that :)

Motorbike or scooter?

That was mine... was a memorable night for me too :) The exhaust is a stainless Quicksilver one – has made a massive difference to the car.

Lift off the throttle and it will come back in line.

Anyone managed to get surf boards on the roof of a Clio III? Photos please...

Personally I don't think the 197 counts as a 'proper' performance car and as previously mentioned it has none of the charm that the last two models had. For the money they cost you could have bought a decent used car. But then all of us look for different things in a car – I hope you enjoy...

Smart arse :) Hey, I've been down and rubbed it off. Looks fantastic. Had no problems getting it to come off. Thanks everyone. Ant

Aye. Wax is on the car and not rubbed off before the rain :( If I get it off, would it be OK just to apply another coat? Surely these products are water based anyway?

I can't access the detailing bit. Didn't mean to post it in this section either though!

It is now raining so hard it is setting off car alarms!!

Some one on here is bound to know the answer to this; washed the car this morning, dry it off and park it in the shade to apply Meguirer's Polish. Goes on and off no problem. Then I apply the Carnuba wax. Just as I get the last bit on the car (so it is totally covered in the stuff) the rain...

I have seen 9mpg from mine but normally it is really good on fuel at around 15mpg.

230 – Original car and as such has a bit more of a classic feel about it – They are much cheaper to buy (as they are older) – Mostly silver – Has a question mark over its 'on the limit handling' – Jenson Button had one 255 – Revised styling (arguably not as pretty) – Better equipment and better...

I wouldn't quite go that far, it is no Ferrari. Interestingly though the Kosovans at the car wash I used in central London on Friday were calling it the 'Ferrari special'. It is a car that captures the imagination. No question a Scooby is faster and much easier to drive. They just don't do it...
