    Later RS197 'box

    I dont think they aer so much a weak link, just annoying on the motorway at 70mph which is why they were changed (I think) Don't worry about it. Get yourself on a B road and work the box and see what its like.

    Nimbus is the only way. The colour changes and shows different tints depending on the lighting / cleanliness / dusk dawn etc. Only Nimbus owners will know this...

    R27 Update

    Nah, sorry bud. Like you say it isnt for everyone, and it certainly isnt for me that. I just dont think the 197 can pull off the carbon bonnet. Maybe because it shows up the lunch box size of the thing?.. Anyway, it must have took a fair bit of patience that mate!

    Northwest Performance Service Today

    http://www.northwestperformance.co.uk/ 50 mile drive for me from Blackburn, but seeing as Renault wanted over 200 quid, it was a no brainer. Me and the missus just popped over to the Trafford Centre after the service and made a day of it.

    ESP/ASR Question?

    lol I love car myths. "Turn it off to stop the kangaroo" "Press it for x amount of seconds to induce black magic" Its not that sophisticated (prove me wrong). Its a switch, on or off lol

    Northwest Performance Service Today

    Excellent. In and out in a reasonable time, they were good lads with a genuine interest in the car. One of them has a Turbo'd 182 running approx 260 (iirc) :scared: Anyway, if you want good service, and a good service on your car for less than 100 beans, and you live in or near...

    What’s your favourite gear?

    1st gear is excellent. Just trickle up to 3 to 4k in it then floor it and the whole of the front of the car lifts under hard acceleration. 2nd gear coming off a roundabout....oh yea

    Iphone vs htc magic

    You simply cannot be any more wrong. Any other smart phone (other than a Blackberry) just doesn't compare. You need to own one, properly in the real world instead of just testing it! If it was took off me I would be lost without it!

    Contisport 3 or Toyos?

    Toyo T1R are excellent, I have them on the front and they have good grip and they are not wearing in 2 minutes like the contis did.
