    Newbie from aberdeen

    Will keep an eye out for you. Saw an UR 197 at Tesco the other day but doubt it was you if you're staying in Montrose.

    Back in my 3rd Clio

    Today I picked up my new RB 200 FF w/cup. Hopefully this will last longer than the 197 I had for a few weeks (shed). Very impressed with the 200, so much is the same but it feels like a much better car. Extra torque is definitely noticeable, I don't find the cup suspension too harsh, I...

    "Don't buy a Renault" They told me.....

    Get rid asap. I handed back a dog of a 197 last month. Lost some money but tomorrow pick up an immaculate RB 200 FF with cup. Much better motors out there.

    Well what happened? It's not up to him whether or not you can reject, that's surely your call anyway?

    "Don't buy a Renault" They told me.....

    Sorry to hear you are still having problems mate. I did manage to hand my recently bought shed of a 197 back. They reluctantly agreed but settled all with the finance company in the end. I did lose most of my deposit and a good bit on travel after leaving it back but I know deep down I did the...

    Have a deposit down on a 200. Has Bluetooth, I saw it when I tested it. Will it also have the monitor? Separate spec items or part of a pack?

    New Clio spotted.

    My dealer has a had a look around one at their VIP evening. He has had 6 RS cars (Clio and Megane) and even he is concerned by the turbo/flappy paddle gearbox. He said the cars look much better than in the photos (true of the 200 too) but I'm not convinced.

    Renault Stereo Help.

    Need to reinstall the OM stereo before I hand back the car. What order to the cables connect back up (I obviously have them the wrong way round) and any tips for removing the cables again, they were a nightmare the first time and a nightmare again. **Edit** Found photos cancel.

    "Don't buy a Renault" They told me.....

    Incomplete history, knocking from steering and car feels excessively worn as if it hasn't been look after very well. Initially they offered me a partial refund which took a couple of weeks to come but wasn't happy. They have since offered to book it in to a garage and cover the cost of any...

    Rogue's Turbo'd R27 - 306bhp

    Have you considered having the brake vents sprayed yellow? Would help with the sides, subtle but effective.

    Installing component speakers

    Did you manage to get some installed? I bought some Component speakers without really thinking or knowing what I was doing. Should have stuck with coax.

    Speaker Help

    I installed a Sony head unit. Vibe component speakers in the front, (no idea what I was doing with them but they're in), and moved the original speakers into the back. I'm in two minds about switching them around again and trying to stick the component tweeters behind the back seats. Any...

    clicky steering & iffy handling.

    Hi, Recently bought a 08 plate 197 with 20k on the clock. At slow speed (parking etc) there is a click from the steering wheel at about 45°, left or right. I know the 197/200 has rack issues that are well documented here but I wonder if this is different. It's not a dull mechanical click from...
