    Alloy seal

    Yep C5 all the way, hadn't tried it until fairly recently, but the results have been great, I've done 8 alloys so far, including a satin black set, brilliant stuff.

    Air-con not very cold

    I took my 200 to be re gassed and checked in march, its been great since and does what you'd expect A/C to do. I'm guessing the 197 system is the same, but our 197 gets nowhere near as cold, it has also been checked and is problem free.

    200: Renault Extended Warranty

    Your better off just complaining RUK if something goes wrong that really shouldn't if your out of warranty, although it seems even if you have warranty more than often its the case anyways. waste of money IMO, I can't see where the piece of mind is, you'll be put through the same ol crap before...

    Wind Deflectors Yes or No?

    Noooooooooo, don't do it, they scratch windows and dig in and deform the rubber trim surrounding the window, I don't get the fuss.

    gtechniq c5 wheel sealant

    Ok, cheers guys, looks like I may have to go for the larger bottle then. May have to try an inside area of the satin wheels first, just didn't want it to put a sheen on them. Also when you say you did your wheels, do you mean all of it?, does that include the inside of the alloy, or are we...

    200: Value of a 2009 RS200

    It seems you have to give things away these days mate if you want to sell, im sure there will be vultures waiting for you to drop it lower so they can make a bit on it, I think your priced about right for an offer... But that's me.... If you dont need to sell, hold out, if not you may have to...

    Bloody aircon is faulty..

    Why dont you just take it to Renault, have it re gassed, dye put in and a system check?, £69, you'll know one way or another then. The wooshing sound may not mean anything, I've had a few cars AC that have done that but worked perfectly well.

    Bloody aircon is faulty..

    Its more than likely were you've been leaving it sat, the gas will slowly leak through any seals in the system as they dry through lack of use. They are kept lubricated by the oil in the AC system with normal usage.

    Looking for 197 exh noise in my 200....suggestions

    Yes, I've noticed this too, the 197 does have a nicer exhaust note at that rev range, my 200 is much quieter in comparison to our 197, one of a few things i prefer about the 197, as to why, I've no idea!.

    What's she worth?

    You'd be selling to a larger market without the mods on, so as said id get them off. Personally I dont think they add much to the the car in terms of value, so Realistically you might be looking at £9.5k max, IF its properly mint, there's plenty of cups about with fewer miles on them for less...

    bugs and waterspots

    Ok, I don't mind polishing, its what to use as the car marks so easy, what's available that's kind to the paint, but will move waterspots. I have some megs scratch x2, but not sure about doing a larger area with it. The problem bugs are the ones that can't be immediately washed off, they bake...

    bugs and waterspots

    Is there a product specifically for removing dried water spots?. Also what is considered the best bug remover, preferably something that dissolves, rather than rubbing.

    Goodbye Clio 200 :( Hello Focus RS :)

    I also have an mp350 focus rs, it is in a different league compared to my clioRS IMO, and its interesting that most of what you feel about it, id disagree with!.... I think build quality wise, the FRS is miles better, doesn't have anything like the problems the CRS does, recaros also are...

    Reviews of RenaultSpeed in Farnborough for service/belts?

    oh, that's not reassuring! ;-) Don't think so - just listed as a Renault specialist so wasn't sure if that extended to RSs so just thought I'd put the question out there.

    Reviews of RenaultSpeed in Farnborough for service/belts?

    Hiya, I'm due to take my 197 to get all the belts done and serviced in the next few months so a big service. I'm thinking of taking it to Ktec, but am wondering about using RenaultSpeed in Farnborough as they're a bit close to me - has anyone used them? any good? Any feedback welcome cheers!
