Wow, that is shocking. Nearly neg 1 degree difference in the rear. Did you not question this at the time? The Left rear didn't change in Camber from before & after figures.

oh, yeah as mentioned it will be likely be replaced with Genuine Renault Cup or R3. Only issue would be what db readings they will return.

Yeah backbox stays Longlife. Not heard of it before. Maybe popular in the Renault world, who knows? I know, cant imagine a garage doing this. Likely the previous owner did a DIY jobbie, still no excuses especially for a track car. Need to be even more meticulous IMO. Elaborate on the 'get a...

Purchased the car last week and in the middle of fully gutting the car and working out whats what. Waiting for it to go on a ramp to get a good look around the entire car and mainly underneath but any ideas on what its currently got? Previous owner was clueless about set up so having to work...

Anyone know a supplier apart from Renault? They are wanting nearly £20 each from the stealers. Seem a sh*te design with a strap that seems to sag or break causing back box to be misaligned. Do people upgrade these? Surprised these aren't on eBay or ECP unless I'm missing them. Part number...

Well... after just checking when I originally signed up on here, it states 2011. Wow.. So it has taken me 4 odd years of lurking and deciding to buy one and now I finally have myself a Clio 197, still preferring the front end to the 200 (sorry 200'ers) ;-) Its Purpose - Track/ Ring Tool. My...

Apparently it's sold anyway. Seemed cheap despite the bit of work that needs to be done. (If that is the only bits that need addressing). It would be converted to a track car anyway so keeping it serviced at a main dealer isn't a concern or priority it would be done via an Indy so £1500 to sort...

Anybody know this 197? Looks a nice example. http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/renault/renaultsport-clio/renaultsport-clio-x85-renaultsport-197-------------2007/2648286

How much are the 8J Magnesium Cup Rims new, assuming you can buy from your local dealer or other? Best place to buy? Unless anyone has any second hand? I would think running a 225-235 on an 8j would be fine?

Right ok, so can we now confirm that the silver handle was/ is for keyless entry. Silver handles seen on all these Clio Cup Cars. Was the standard 197 used as the shell or is the keyless entry not distinguished with the silver handle? Note: some have colour coded door trim strip too.

Cheers Guys, appreciated. So keyless was an option on the Cup then?

Bump - Anyone?

I have seen many Clio 197s with & without Silver Door handles, colour coded door strip trim. Im confused in what was an option and what seperates the 197 from the 197 Cup? What was the options on the 197 Cup? Could you spec it with the Silver door handles and not the colour coded door trims...

Right little complicated that to say the least. lol Bi- Xenon headlights offer both dipped beam and full beam, instead of full beam being normal halogen.

Thanks.. Thats not too bad I guess but not great either. Preference for options I thought today I would definitely need to include Xenons. Are the Xenons Bi-Xenon and does the active corner light system come with all Xenons or again an extra? Sorry for all the questions. Agree with Spoiler, I...

Whys this? Not sure what the front splitter looks like tbh. Any pics? I've seen the spoiler on some and actually not liking it much! Was this and the splitter a factory optional extra? are these just for show or are they proven to increase additional downforce? How thirsty exactly, Cant...

The 197 cup with hardcore options seems the way to go then! I would still need back seats to go down and have the ability to perhaps challenge it to a trackday or two..

That answers that then! :D Tbh I am not liking the 200

Thanks chaps for the quick & comprehensive reply. I fully understand the specs now. I have been seeing the FF about a bit and was slightly baffled. Apologies for referring to wanting as a daily $hitter, it'll be used as a daily driver to work and using for jobs. I run a A3 2.0TDI S Line atm as...

Thought id do the decent thing and introduce myself. Im contemplating buying a 197 as a daily $hitter for added fun as an everyday car. Glacier White I preference atm. Looking for: 08 reg onwards low mileage (around +/-15k), Glacier White, Sport Recaro seats, Black Wheels. I want to be...
