    Hello from Dubai

    Hi Alex. You wouldnt know my mates Mohhamed and Motaz down at TAM auto engineering would you? I was doing some stuff for the Leon Super Copa race car and it had Alex and a Greek flag on it if I remember right? They had a Clio race car in there too, do you race down at the Autodrome? I am...

    197 turbo?

    Uprated diff and so on and you can put down alot more than 200, you can get loads of spin in low gears but if you are driving quickly then its no problem. infact, f1 teams optimum launch control spin is 27% so that should tell you something.

    197 turbo?

    Only had it 3 weeks! It doesnt help that I work for Revo Technik either, we do loads of big turbo cars but i could never afford most of them! I need the same thing on a budget and the 197 cant be beaten for the price. imo. I think the car is great for a standard car and think it could handle...

    197 turbo?

    I dont want a meg really, i love the 197 and think it has more potential. With the right damper set up and more torque it would slaughter a meg. imho.

    197 turbo?

    Is it just me or is the 197 lacking in the power department? I know its quick and the cup set up on my clio does a really good job at making fast driving manageable. Torque is nowhere to be found and the 5k kick should be a kick to the head not a tap in the shins.I think this car should have had...

    GETTING RID OF MY TT 3.2 V6 FOR A CLIO SPORT 197 WITH CUP CHASSIS!!

    Yes I have got it, I have had it a week so not sure I am ready to sell it yet, but maybe. I would be happy to come and show you if you want, Im only a couple of miles away. If you want to make me an offer then I would be happy to listen. I won't include the plate though. I have some stuff Im...

    sounds great, but only when you give it some.

    207 GTi vs...

    The 207 is punchier low down and it would be down to the driver i think in a straight line. If there are corners involved you have no worries, Peugeot have gone all soft, the mini delivers so much more with the same engine. She wasted her money, imo. your female friend is stoopid! +1

    197 cup vs 197 ff

    I know what you are saying here, it is odd. A standard 197 is always referred to as full fat but that should be the 197 with cup pack at least! But I just accept it now, different models have different rules! It’s the easiest way. 197 cup v 197 ff (but not cupped)! I have a 197 ff (cupped)...

    Nimbus 197 Bullring (selfridges)

    Sunday late morning saw a Nimbus 197 on level four, I was the black ff cupped 197 a few spaces to your right, if you are on here! First nimbus I have seen and I think it looks good.:)

    new 197 satin/cup packs

    Quality photos mate, Im liking that spoiler. Where do I get it? I want that and the lights on this! http://i276.photobucket.com/albums/kk8/wuffin_2008/5.jpg the spoiler is subtle but adds to the chunky look of the 197 imo. Here are some wheel pics but I just cant get it right due to the...

    new clio 197 is here! (with picture)

    In reply, it is the satin pack and the wheels are different. They are raider wheels (Anthracite with machine polished spoke faces to match the mirrors and extractors). The mirrors don’t show well in the pictures as they reflect the light and look lighter than they are. Everyone I have shown in...

    new 197 satin/cup packs

    I will be cleaning it tomorrow so I will post some, are you the guy with the rear wing that is not the standard clio job or the cup spoiler, is it ELIA? where will i find a pic if its yours?

    new 197 satin/cup packs

    I am loving this car, it doesnt like BP ultimate though and was running like a diesel (only tried a tenner). I put Tesco super back in it and it recovered within 20 miles and has been sweet ever since. ff with satin and cup packs with Raider satin wheels, wasnt sure about the combo but it looks...

    Hi everyone, picked her up yesterday! It was a long wait but more than worth it:D ! What do you think?

    Some C**t scratched up my 197 today.

    I did catch someone doing this to my car, I gave them a few digs and called the police (holding the tow rags face in the dirt until they arrived). I got taken to the station and told I would have to drop the damage charges or they would do me for assault! It cost me £400 to sort it (although I...

    Is it true?

    You can get it done at any main dealer not just reno without a problem, and you can take it to any other garage that follow the Renault service plan using genuine parts. A few places specialise in this like Lex Auto centre. It can create issues though if you get a problem so be warned! better to...

    GETTING RID OF MY TT 3.2 V6 FOR A CLIO SPORT 197 WITH CUP CHASSIS!!

    I remember your car was due 2 weeks before mine, I had the cup set up too and other options. I am picking mine up on Friday from the Renault dealer that is only about 6 miles from you. I ended up paying £125 more for it than I could get it online but they have hounded renault for it and called...

    GETTING RID OF MY TT 3.2 V6 FOR A CLIO SPORT 197 WITH CUP CHASSIS!!

    I respect your opinion but I would prefer a selection, just because you can buy an rs4 or an m5 (or a tt)doesnt mean you should. I have been down this route with s3's and an m3 smg but you can get more for your money. Thats my point and I live by this as my 197 will be to replace my third car...

    GETTING RID OF MY TT 3.2 V6 FOR A CLIO SPORT 197 WITH CUP CHASSIS!!

    You get what you pay for? Not sure about that. If you take servicing costs (£930 for my last at Lotus) into it, you get loads more for your money with the renault. You have a car that can play with the best on the right road at a minimum cost in comparison. What would you have, an F430 or all of...

    Yes, CII0 RS and CII0 FF have gone so looks like i will have to stay with what I have got! I read on your other post that you have one on order too, when do you get it? Im only 5 miles away from you if you live in lutterworth like it says. I know a couple of other people who have them nearby...
