    Look I just found my old 197

    I know the 200 doesn't I didn't know about the 197 but presumed it didn't, hence my joke about what's a spare wheel as my 200 hasn't, 182 didn't, Mini Cooper S neither but oh hang on...my Twingo RS 133 had a space saver.... never mind I failed again lol

    Hi there, another potential rs200 owner

    They are a bit marmite, I just personally wish they gave them that bit extra performance or something considering the heritage was mr Gordini took a standard Renault and tweaked it somewhat as well as added the stripes etc but hey I'm just being greedy lol

    Look I just found my old 197

    Always handy to have an actual spare though, I hate not having one, hate space savers too but rather have one of them than nothing

    Hi there, another potential rs200 owner

    Oh no don't worry pal no offence is taken whatsoever at all I was just giving my "tuppence worth" etc, everyone's tastes are their own. Just my very limited input to try and help in any way I can. That does seem a nicely equipped 'dini just a shame the sunroof means the roof stripes aren't...

    Help Looking for a 197/200

    Hey don't forget us Gordini's!! Lol Sorry to hear that the sale hasn't gone ahead though Paul, but as been said least it was better to find out before you made the purchase and good luck continuing the search. You'll know you've got the right one and the wait will be worth it when you do :thumb:

    New tax rules

    Yep never, approaching 30 (far too fast) and never been abroad except for the army. Sounds like a plan tho, drop a few more sprogs out the missus, go on the dole, do my back in, and woohoo. Although am going around the med on a cruise ship this July so soon to be rectified. :excited::thumb:

    Hi there, another potential rs200 owner

    Just remember too that the Gordini holds a higher price bracket simply because it is quite rare (although says 500 limited run, I've learnt from this site that it's believed there was nowhere near that number sold in U.K.) and therefore (I'm hoping as I have one lol) will retain a higher value...

    Speeding

    Absolutely despise lane hoggers on motorways... "I'm not going in the left hand lane that's for slow moving traffic" then proceeds to stay in the middle lane at less than 70!! And then there's those especially around here in Dundee that will sit in the outside lane on dual carriageways cos they...

    Pity the Megane isn't white too to complete the set lol :french: I had the RS Twingo 133 before the Clio I got now. Brilliant little car especially in the corners, just misses a bit of extra grunt for the straights, there's couple pictures in the gallery thread on here of mine.

    New tax rules

    Yep 'tis true I'm afraid. But as said only applies to new vehicles registered on or after 1st April 2017. Saw this coming a mile off when the government in its infinite wisdom decided to muck about with the tax last time n incentivised people to buy more emission friendly cars. Lower road tax...

    Slovenian snowman (R27 #2169)

    Ohhhhh THATS plasti dip.... Thanks mate I had no idea what it was lol. Personally I gotta agree with Gordini's comment. Think the bump strips are too high up as I was thinking more along the lines of stripes down the bottom of the car again like the image in Gordini's post. I've seen a set of...

    Don't know what plasti dip is but I think I'd possibly like it, depending on size n location of said stripe/s
