    New Member - Looking for 197

    Stick on the right side of the steering wheel has a button on the end, hold in for 5 seconds and it'll reset. :drunk: Enjoy the car mate, I look forward to seeing it after a good detail as it's been about a year since i got the polisher out! Glad it's gone to someone who will appreciate it.

    Corsa VXR Recaros fitted

    Holy **** you got a bargain there! I've been after a set for a long time for my girlfriends Corsa. Nice to see something different, they're a nice looking seat.

    @DS197 Tyreleader and Tyre Pneus I looked at, just checked and they've hiked their prices. They were about £85 a wheel when I was looking at them just after Christmas...

    Engine Dynamics 197/200 Upcoming Turbo Convertion Kits

    IMO It's too expensive considering the cost of the Megane conversion. Also how long have they tested it on standard internals? I'd be more inclined to save the extra money and give it to ClioTurbo for forging and boosting, their first setup offers 30bhp more at the same cost too...

    Federal rsr different prices

    Could be worth a phonecall to MyTyres and see if they can explain the difference? I'm considering a set for summer but may just get NS-2R's again.

    Westlake sport rs

    How much are they a set? I don't track my car but I had the 180 compound Nankang NS-2R's on my car last year and they were unreal in the dry and they do a 120 soft compound designed for track. Could also look at Federeal 595 RS-R's, they're both about £240 a set on Tyreleader.

    Genuine Recaro seat covers or re trimming

    http://www.renaultpartsdirect.co.uk/product/renault-clio-197-seat-base-recaro/ New genuine bases, bought loads of stuff from here great service. I'd advise though to save and have them retrimmed, the standard material will just wear through again over time. Depending on were you are in the...

    Has your gearbox been replaced? Yes or no?

    You are much better off going to a specialist and not through a dealer, I'd be very surprised if they go much lower in terms of contribution and that price is astromical. I had mine repaired by an ex Renault mechanic with a new clutch fitted and full service for £650 + Clutch price as I bought...

    How much do you think it's worth?

    The prices are all over the place at the minute, there was one on facebook the other day with recaros for something silly like £7.5k. £5750 seems more than reasonable, if you have proof of repairs etc I'm sure someone would offer you around £5500.
