    Fast road, but comfortable set up.

    Some years ago EVO magazine ran a 200 FF Cup as a long termer. In the process they did a back-to-back with a non-Cup FF. IIRC, they said that the standard car was more comfortable on U.K. roads, but the Cup car had slightly better handling when pushed harder. However, they concluded that...

    Black 'Look' Roof - Advice Please

    Just to conclude my original post; my Renault dealer quoted similar prices for wrap or paint (£220), but recommended paint. I took their advice and they did a first class job - looks perfect.

    Wanted 2012 RS200 - Standard Springs (Non-Cup) - What Colour Markings?

    Thanks Jimmy, that further confirms what I thought. My plan is to run my latest RS200 (with Cup Chassis) on Standard Springs and Dampers, but retain the ARBs and quicker steering and, of course, the Brembos. It'll be interesting to see how it feels.

    Clio RS200 Springs - Can You Identify These?

    Sorry, follow up from my previous post below. I want a set of new (or near new) standard RS200 springs. I bought these from this Forum - from a 2012 Gordini. Unfortunately one of the fronts is broken (corrosion inside the shroud!). So I need a new pair of fronts. But, firstly, just want to...

    Wanted 2012 RS200 - Standard Springs (Non-Cup) - What Colour Markings?

    In the first instance, I just need to know the correct 'colour codes' (and perhaps Part #s) for the genuine standard springs (F&R). Once confirmed, then I may need a pair/set. thanks

    Wanted 2012 RS200 - Standard Springs (Non-Cup) - What Colour Markings?

    I need a set of New or Near New 'standard' springs for a 2012/62 RS200. First question - what are the correct colour markings? I have found a pair of Rears with two orange stripes and a green mark. And, two Fronts with yellow and blue marks. Is this correct? Much appreciated

    Best Place to Buy an Akrapovic Exhaust?

    Mine is the 'Slip on ' System and the people I spoke with at Projex seemed very professional and on the case, whereas others seemed a bit vague. I don't normally like aftermarket modifications, but I am aware of the quality of Akrapovic's products and their working relationship with leading...

    Storm Grey RS 200 Wanted

    Yes, it's a shame about the Mk4. I remember how disappointed enthusiasts and the media were when it launched, but I thought it would be fine - just a bit more grown up - but what it may have lost in 'fun factor' it would have gained in 'sophistication'. But, sadly, the Mk4 just didn't engage...

    Best Place to Buy an Akrapovic Exhaust?

    All the investigations I did revealed none in the UK, but available to order (7-10 days) £954 + £35 delivery. Everyone was the same price. Not cheap, but a quality product, and subtle benefits.

    Storm Grey RS 200 Wanted

    Forgot to say, in October I did buy a very lovely, nearly new, fully spec'd, Liquid Yellow, 200T. Kept it 3 weeks before selling it. Paddle-shift, electric steering, turbocharging, synthetic aids......just nowhere near as engaging as the N.A. 2 litre.

    Storm Grey RS 200 Wanted

    I do like S.G., what's the mileage on yours? Interestingly I have just bought a Racing Blue 2013/62 with 14k mls. Still have my Albi Blue '10, with 59k mls, which has been an absolute gem. I keep one in France and one in the UK. Could still be tempted by an exceptional, original, low mls in...

    Black 'Look' Roof - Advice Please

    Some RS200s have the contrasting black roof - that can look very attractive. Few questions: - Was it a Factory option? - To retro-fit, would you paint or vinyl wrap (my Renault Dealer has said the price is similar £200ish)? - What is the most practical colour - flat gloss black, flat satin...
