    Tyres.....what you using

    Im running the 197 on T1R's ATM and can't really fault them tbh. Back to the Conti's soon though as the new 200 will come with them on!

    Photo shop 200 imho looks 100 times better

    I have just ordered a 200, and tbh when I parked my 97 next to one of the sales guys 200's, my car looked dated. As for colour coding the front. 3 months (maybe more) ago I would have said yea. Infact I wouldn't have bought a 200 at all colour coded or not, but the above photoshop makes it...

    Falling out with the 197

    R32... A bore fest with a vw badge on the front and no character. Get yourself a Megane 250, or a Scirrocco and tune it. I test drove (extended test drive) a Golf GTi Edition 30, and I was litterally bored to tears. It had that DSG box which made the experience even more boring.

    how much do you spend on your car each month!!!!

    Aye, I know but for me it would be the principle of it. I mean I could put 600 bats a month into petrol, but there would be no chance id be putting it into a Clio. I sometimes think in these times, the amount I spend on the car (about 600 a month in total) is far to much. Then I take it...

    how much do you spend on your car each month!!!!

    If I spent £600 in petrol in a month, the car would be sold shortly after. Thats, well, daft money tbh. So long as your enjoying it though I guess.

    what to do?

    no no no no no. White and black combo is the winner. Id be kicking up a fuss mate. No offence to white speedline owners on a white car, but it looks a little washed out to me.

    New Owner... Just a few concerns

    FFS reading this stuff makes my p1ss boil. Get it back to the dealership and demand a refund. Id be frothing at the mouth!

    Why did you buy the 197 over the VXR?

    I test drove one before I got the R27 and the best two bits about the whole thing was A) The dials did a cool thing of going all the way round and back to zero again when you started it up B) Getting back to the garage so I could get out of the car and go home. Body roll through the...

    Bump Strip

    As far as I can see mate, they have broken one Clip which is part of the bump strip (behind) which is in turn right behind the badge. I replaced the badges within a couple of days of them being stolen I havent noticed anything on the indicator being broken. I hope not anyway!

    Cleaning your mats

    Stupidly, I used the Renaultsport mats through the winter, and now they are looking a bit worse for wear. I might just take the hit and replace them, but how could I try to salvage them? How do you lot clean them? I simple hoover will not suffice.

    Bump Strip

    Drivers side bump strip please. I will need a new one due to some clown stealing my door badges some time ago and breaking one of the clips. The bump strip at the badge end keeps coming away from the door and pulling the indicator out a little with it also. [:(] How do you get the...

    Freshly cleaned

    Still far far to cold to be washing the car. One of the neighbours was doing his Scirroco today, and he looked like he was going to die. I really want to have a bash, but im to soft.

    Nearly changed my car today!

    I went to VW a couple of weeks ago and had a test in a Golf Edition 30. I almost crashed it by falling asleep.

    Can you get 4 adults comfortably in a 197?

    Just don't try to show off your performance with your mates in, because there won't be any!
