I know I can't comment yet as I have a 182 atm, however I consistently get over 30 in mine, and I don't doodle.

Thanks. Yes I'm very happy that I did. The advise really helped push me in the right direction. I'll make my best efforts to make the next meet near me.

You definitely have a point. All I know is that with my current car, RS 182, an exhaust would have made me very happy. But initially the new car it's self will do this. The mods can wait. First things first is a bloody good clean!

Thanks everyone. I think I might take your advise and let the money burn a hole for a while. I guess with a 8 year old car you never know what will happen. We'll see.

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...

this is a pic of the suspension. Is this enough to tell if it's cup suspension?

I'll check for the dots on the suspension and keep you posted

Ohhh Haha. I hadn't noticed that.

How do you mean?

http://bobfishersgarage.co.uk/item/9719980/renault-clio-renaultsport-197-2l-3-door-hatchback/ I've decided on this one. I'm putting a deposit down later today. With the sale my car I'm paying £4500 and that gets me a full service with a cambelt change! Pretty sure that's a good deal?

Thanks Chris and everyone. I'm on holiday from Tuesday for a week so if the car I'm looking at is still there I'll probably get it. If not, I'll keep looking. I'll keep you posted! :)

Awesome! I should fit in nicely then ;)

I can't believe how much feedback this is getting. Everyone on here seems to be super helpful! Thanks.

Okay great thanks :) I can't imagine I'll be doing track days. The main reason I'm getting the car is because I love the RS clios but don't like so much the age of my one. With the breaks going, exhaust rattles etc, but with over 100k on the clock it's to be expected. So I'm hoping a 197 with...

Thanks guys. I have driven one with recaro's and I liked them a lot. My main concern was whether it was a night and day difference. From the sounds of things it is. This helps me make my decision a lot easier. The car I want is on 62k. If it hasn't had the belts done, has anyone got any idea...

Great thanks. I've seen a car near me with recaro's. It's got the cup chassis but without xenons. I think from the sounds of things it'll be worth it.

Hi, new to the forum. Own a 182 and I am looking to upgrade to a 197 as mines on it last legs and I'd rather not chase problem after problem. I've got a budget of around 5k ish but I'm hoping with the sale of my car or having left anything spare I can do some modifications to make it my own...
