just ordered a clioo 200 cup

[mitch1990]

ok mate thanks

 

[RVanner]

true, it is a cup packed 200

Mitch, i'd check with your dealer then to be honest.

The gear knob and steering wheel insert set me back £95inc vat. (75-20 split).

Im happy to spend a few hundred on a spoiler etc but not thousands!

 

[RVanner]

oh and no the recaros aren't leather. Honestly not sure if you can get them.

 

[mitch1990]

ok ill double check, thats not bad price for the two ! ok they just look like leather in the picture.

 

[RVanner]

if they look like leather, im happy with that

 

[mitch1990]

i bet you are ! i cant wait to go and pick mine up !

 

[RVanner]

Mate you'l love it.

My mates got a mustang GT500 - he and i are gna have some good times, and my other mate will join once he picks up his 200 on saturday!

 

[mitch1990]

wow ! nice car ! is the clio one of the best cars you have driven ?

 

[RVanner]

Its definitely the best small car ive driven. But in terms of hot hatches ive old driven the 200 and Corsa VXR when i worked for enterprise rent a car. (god knows why they bought one) The 200 was definitely the best not just power wise (as it has more i believe - although it is a bit heavier) but the VXR is too dangerous as it doesn't feel planted at all, i felt nervous every corner i took at high speed, whereas the 200 is so planted so you can fly round corner with such confidence. Im pretty certain it is regarded as the number 1 hot hatch. Im sure all the members and owners here agree as well!

Ive driven my old mans 360 modena which is rapid, and a Nissan GTR around brands hatch (birthday present from the missus!) oh and my mates fiesta ST, he left it parked round my house after a night out so i took it for a cheeky spin without him knowing! haha!

 

[mitch1990]

iv heard nothing but good reviews which is one of the reasons i went for the 200 ! i feel the same with corsa vxr they have alot of body roll i think ! and i bet driving those was awesome !

you can get leather from renault, its an accessory rather than an option, renault use a a place called trimtek or something along them lines, you order through the dealership, the company send the leather trims to the dealership and the dealership fit it.

 

[mitch1990]

i thought you could, iv seen some with red leather recaros, well nice !

 

[ryan197]

Theres also a trader on here that does a full retrim for alot cheaper ( front recaro, back seats, all door cards and gear stick gaitor) had mine done, looks lush. Lol

 

[mitch1990]

ohhh nice, i might have to look into it !

 

[ryan197]

just do a search for "edge automotive" he is based in rugby, so not that far away to be fair.
