    Verdict on owning my first Renaultsport.

    Great pic, this part of the track always reminds just how fast Formula one cars are and the speed they take this bend! Think my clio might struggle to make the hill lol! But I can imagine needing to get through this bend as fast as possible to keep the speed up the long up hill straight. Paul

    Another surprising factor is the relatively low 197/200 numbers, living here in Chelmsford Essex Iv only seen one 200 in the last couple of years. I wouldn't even have thought of these cars until I saw the evo magazine article on hot hatches and there admiration for this car. Paul

    Leather cleaner/conditioner

    Same on the TT forum they highly recommend pears soap to clean the leather. Best results are obtained when the leather is warm as it obsorbs the products better. Either leave the Heater on full heat or use a hairdryer. Worked well on my TT leather seats and a good tip is a get a damp cloth...
