Sounds great, how many times does your mate have to say "f**kin 'ell" :D :D :D

I repainted mine recently, pulled them out no problem. See my thread here http://www.clio197.net/forum/showthread.php?44352-Nimbus-197-Cup&highlight=

Why not buy a lower mileage 197 with the Cup pack ? ETA; http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/renault/renaultsport-clio/renaultsport-clio-197-cup--speedlines-px-welcome/2942092 No mention of belts but looks a nice example. And if it doesn't have to be a Cup pack model then this...

Stunning 275, perfect spec. Enjoy :) :)

Look stunning in Charcoal.

It's 20kg i think. Remember reading somewhere that a 197 Cup with A/C is 20kg heavier than one without. Mine does without the A/C.

Yellow fogs look sweet; easy to enough to do ??? Damn i wish i had held out for a RB 197 Cup :(

Thanks for the response Luke, will look into the Eibach kit.

Good updates; how finding the springs ? i would like to lower my car (mainly for looks) but not sure the Cup dampers can take the extra strain ? I don't want to wear the dampers out quicker than anticipated. My car is due a service soon (indicator still states 5.5k miles until next service but...

UPDATE - 6000 miles So, 6000 miles into 197 ownership and its been an up and down experience so far. The car continues to excel when pressing on and never fails to impress at the amount of mid corner grip it has and the braking is excellent. Presently running the standard OEM set up however I...

How easy was it to remove the scuttle clips/screws ? I have tried to remove them with a flat head screwdriver, the clip rotates but doesn't loosen.

Thanks Fernandez, so the 20mm items will definitely fit my car (2008 197 Cup)

They are the wrong items. I purchased them from Ktec about 2 months ago and they don't fit; sent them back and was issued a full refund within 2 days.

Lovely 182 mate, real credit to you and wheels look stunning. Would be nice to own a 182 or 172 one day to tuck away..... a good one will definitely be a cheap future classic.

Depends if you are either on the large side or you make contact with the bolster when you get in and out. I don't have the Recaro's but my seats have some slight wear from the previous owners.... i never manage to make contact with the bolster when getting in and out of the car. Not sure how...

Welcome mate, couple of nice 200T's round my way; which part of Cheshire are you in ?

Very nice :D

No just replacing the mounts..... the left mount has seen better days.

Nothing big to report so far; just recently ordered 2 new Powerflex Exhaust mounts from Cazan Racing along with a pair of ARB Polybushes and a new Conti 3 due to a puncture :( Still really enjoying the Clio, so happy i went down the RenaultSport route.

I have had my 197 Cup for nearly 4 months now, covered just shy of 4k miles..... Things i like..... Handling; on a twisty road it's sublime. The car soaks up the bumps and camber changes perfectly and the mid corner speed which you can achieve with these cars is quite impressive. I am only...
