    What to look for??

    This is all great info, thanks! Really need to try and get a wee shot of one now before I make up my mind. With the R27, how easy is it to detail/wax the car around the decals, specifically the roof? Can the roof decal be removed?

    What to look for??

    WOW, everyone has been very welcoming. Very much appreciated! I guess the only thing that is putting me off is the gearbox issue...especially because if I buy one, it's probably not going to have any warranty left. I can cope with the other niggles as I have with every other car I have owned...

    What to look for??

    Thanks guys!! Ok so far: 1. Recaro seat wear on bolsters 2. Gearbox 'lumpy' Can I ask, what is the main problem with the gearboxes? Is it a major fault or relatively easily fixed? Is it v common? Cheers :bounce:

    Hey all, Completely new to the world of clios and I'm in the market for my next hot hatch. Having had a cooper s before, I'm interested in the R27. I have had a look for faults etc but can anyone advise what I should be looking out for when buying a 197? Thanks
