Totally agree although there is a strong positive to take from this....no matter what you do to a liquid yellow Clio....it still looks amazing (the car)

Cheers guys. I took those pictures up on Saddleworth Moor which is one of the best driving roads in Yorkshire. If your old enough, youll know of Saddleworth for all the wrong reasons but still, its asif these roads were designed with the Clio in mind. I'll hopefully see some of you at upcoming...

Well after 36 days of ownership, my Clio is finished. I bought the car and only wanted a private plate (my name and something for the car, foot mats (official Ren ones), tax disc holder (clio 197 club ofc) and new stereo (for iPhone)....all done and dusted for a while now. Before anybody...

aye you'll have to add close to a four figure sum there based on what they cost new from Renault. Everyone without Recaro's wants them, everyone with them won't ever get rid of them so youll struggle mate. Cant imagine a clio without them myself, leather or even solid gold trim wouldnt match :)

heya, so far i can work out they made the following R27 colours : 10000000000000 in red 1700000000000000000000000000 in liquid yellow 1 in racing blue You never ever see them or maybe its just around the Leeds area :D

If i had a Corsa (any model / age) outside now, id go outside after work at 5pm, lay down on the ground and proceed to slither home. It would be far more fun and id look like less of a tw*t in the process :) Horrendous to drive and horrendous to look at.

i agree, the 200s way newer and a much more sensible option. However, the day will come when a 197 passes you the other way and you'll just feel silly.

Right guys, 3 things to do here: 1) is your head unit / stereo compatible with stalk controls? Google it and you should see. It may be called 'remote' or 'stalk adaptor'. I literally yesterday bought a new kenwood unit as my Sony wasn't.. 2) search for this part number on eBay and buy one...

Wow.. Im speechless. Cars DONT do that in under 3 years unless you wear somesort of bondage spiked gloves. Surely to god youll get that replaced under warranty. Worrying reading some of these threads sometimes.

When next years Clio sounds and looks this bad, I'd say people would be snapping there hand off.

Digital speedo = the future. You've left us lot in the dust there mate I like it.

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned white yet, it's surely by far the most common colour, all you ever see in auto trader and pistonheads is white.

I don't mind alien green, it's like liquid yellow....photos just don't do it justice. Liquid yellow in the sunshine in front of you beats any photo, Clio V6 in that colour is the best car in the world :-) Having said that, racing blue is sex on wheels hence why I chose it over liquid yellow...

Dog poo brown with black speed lines would be fun to have.

if i were you mate, head to your local dealer and do all the usual "im not happy" stuff. If you have no luck, try the next "closest" dealer and keep going till one agrees to do it for you. "gesture of goodwill" sounds like it could go either way. Each dealer seems to have a different view of...

the slowest cars in the whole country are impreza's and evos funnily enough. Sitting in the slow lane doing 59 all the time, never seen one make the middle lane before hehe. well worth having a turbo...

turbo's are horrible, why on earth would you want one? Press pedal, wait for ages, eventually get going as you watch the fuel gauge go down (quickly) :( N/A are so much more responsive.

Are you sure? I'm averaging 26mpg and I don't put my foot down at all. I just make 320 miles per tank (all according to the car clocks)

Hmm cheers, some really useful information there. According to forums I've read it's not compatible. Looking at the back of it, I can see why too. There is nowhere to put that radio interface lead (second link above). All I have are the two fat boxy looking leads which connect to two of the...

Right finally i'm getting somewhere. It seems my Car stereo (Sony GT31U) is not stalk control compatible, maybe thats why ive not been able to figure out which adaptor i needed...never thought the wires would match up so good job i didn't try buy any. Can anybody suggest a decent head-unit...
