    182 Cup - 197, Comparison.

    I upgraded from a 2003 172 to my LY R27 2 months ago and have never looked back. In my opinion its difficult to campare the 2 cars as they are so different! As said, they are thirsty but I didnt buy mine for economy! My advice is, if low MPG doesnt bother you, then take it for a test drive and...

    Smoking in car??

    I used to smoke in my 172. Needed an incentive to quit so I told myself i would treat my self to a new car if I could quit. Bought a R27 F1 the other week and still not smoking. Happy days! :approve:

    O/S Headlight not working

    Recently bought a 197 R27 F1 Clio. Absolutley loving the car. Anyway, got in the car this morning to come to work and noticed the O/S headlamp bulb had blown (Non xenon). Got a new bulb and fitted to find that it still doesnt work :(. Has anyone come across this problem before???

    Funniest Thing You Have Been Told By A Dealer...

    When I went to sign for my R27 F1, the salesman said he will be putting some fuel in the car for me. Great I said, obviously you will be putting superplus in but can I ask that you put Shell V Power in? He looked at me with a blank look and said...............You have lost me, Whats superplus &...

    To upgrade to a LY R27 F1 197 or not?

    Only brought it home from the garage so far. The power delivery feels loads better lower down and the handling feels really sharp! The one thing i will say tho is that it is a MUCH harder ride than the 172 but knew it would be. Shame its so wet tonight, wanna take it out for a good drive!

    To upgrade to a LY R27 F1 197 or not?

    Lovin the mix of comments. Drove it again today and will ring them in the morning to let them know what I have decided. As said by 'Liquid Yellow', the 172 may carry on costing more and more. Think ive made my decision anyway ;)

    To upgrade to a LY R27 F1 197 or not?

    I was looking at them but with never owning a renaultsport clio before, I thought it would be better to go for a cheaper onewith low miles (45k). Had a fair few issues with the 172 tho, it was due a cambelt change which was my fault as i didnt research it before i bought the car, after a few...

    I drove it today and loved it, must admit it did feel much more refined than my 172. Saying that, its 5yrs newer so you would expect that. Im sat on the fence at the mo and just need a kick in the right direction haha!

    Love the car and it ticks all the boxes! But like my 172 aswell. Wish I could keep both haha! The car is from a Reno stealer and comes with 2yrs warranty which is pretty good too!

    Not had my Iceberg 172 for long now but a Luquid yellow R27 197 F1 has caught my eye. Although im happy with my 172, ive wanted an F1 for a while now. Im torn between the two and im struggling to make a decision! Trouble is, if i leave it much longer im sure the F1 will be snapped up by someone...

    172 + 197 = 369...........After a hard days cleaning!

    Thanks mate. I think im gonna leave it as it is. Its only done 45k and is pretty mint so it would be a shame to change stuff really :approve:

    Yeah the xenons are probably one of my fave things about my 172, they are awsome at night.
