I don't have one yet... but I will soon hopefully

Not sure how to take that LOL

As a compliment my friend.

Far as i can see tonight; your at home, beer in hand, talking cars, waiting for your 12th (?) RS to be made and dreaming of sunshine and late-apex's @ Spa.

Hardly acting your age. In the very best way possible :smile:
 
The Mercs a lovely car.

Especially if your 73, retired, live in Swindon, wear a flat-cap and read the financial times for fun.


You've clearly realised there's life in the old dog yet. So i wish you the best of luck in your quest to brighten up your garage :smile:

BTW: I'm not exactly a Spring-Chicken either !
Oh Shuv, that hurts! I love my Merc, but in a different way to that in which I love my Clio.

You know i sometimes love my tongue in my cheek; to provoke reaction when i post Johnny :smile:

My Dads a Merc man too. So i've been in a few 'warm' ones. Lovely cars too. Just a little staid and reserved compared to the frog !

Still: a track derived weapon verses a toy-laden galactic super-cruiser isnt exactly comparing apples to apples is it..........

Hey Shuv! I regard you as a mate. You know you can take the p•••! Clio RSs are possibly ultimate hooning/ fun cars. We all have other needs from our cars. If we're going to be honest. I'm lucky enough to be able to have a. Clio 200 RS with a cup chassis & my Merc. Best of both worlds. You know that we're on the same wavelength mate! There's nothing you could do to alter this, please believe me!

Yes but I do get looked after at Renault photo at Spa View attachment 16440

Nice shot, Spa is on the list of tracks that I need to drive!

Didn't realise they had changed the seats in the facelift tbh..

You don't mean the trophy seats?

Yes sorry Chris, I did mean the Trophy

It is a lovely car, and for the record I'm only just the wrong side of thirty. When I bought it it was the right choice. I was doing a lot of miles and it's comfortable and well equipped. But it has a bit of poke when you need it.

I only have to go to the office once a week now, so my priorities have changed.
