    Help needed. New noise. Video included.

    Hi guys. Hope someone can help. I've been getting this noise coming from the offside of the car and I only get the noise after a spirited drive whereas when the engine is cooler, it's not as loud.

    Renaultsport fun

    Finally picked up my 197 today and wow what a fun car. So much difference from the 182, they're on a different level. I haven't taken it for a proper test yet as it's been raining hard all day but I'm so pleased with it. It has exceeded my expectations!

    Cambelt Question

    Hi, hope I'm in the right section. I'm buying a car that has had the cambelt done at 42k (it's currently on 62k). Going by the buyers guide on here it says cambelts should be done every 72k. If this is the case am I right in thinking I don't need to worry about a cambelt until around 114k? Hope...

    Deposit placed on a red 197!

    Hi all. Just placed a deposit on a red RS 197! Needless to say I'm very excited to get it. They need to service and mot it before I can get my hands on it, it's going to a long week. I chose this one because of the mileage (62k) and the amazing recaro seats. I fully intend to make this my...
