Thread corpse revival, my old car, glad to see you enjoyed it. It went to my ex wife when we got divorced

Evening All, Well our R27 is due to go into the garage for the third time in 3 weeks, this time due to the heater fan deciding to stop working on settings 1&2, a blown resistor has been diagnosed, however the dealer is also suggesting the loom to it needs replacing too, which suprisingly...

Ours is indeed black, in the 700 miles we've covered over the last couple of days I've seen 1 200 and your 197, no other Mk3's at all...

Passed you in the opposite direction, we were heading up to Ilkley from Brighton, via York, think you waved, I only realised at the last minute, first R27 I've seen on the road other than ours!

It was outside my house perving the R27 up... In Burgess Hill if anyone knows it, was running a 6 digit personalised plate R** ***

Seen you round town, and on Victoria Industrial Estate a fair bit, I'm in a black R27

alright dude, another E38 user here, same username!

Granted, it's not especially nice, but I thought it would be good to have a nice new one, being it's a special edition and all that!

Hi Guys, I've recently started a new job (well, actually it's back with a company I've worked for twice before) and we specialise in amongst other things, vehicle wraps and therefore digital vinyl print. Now, here's where I may be able to help out, the rear window sticker on my R27 is...

Probably the wife you see, she works out past Cuckfield, I only use the car at the weekends! Only seen a silvery grey 197, and a white one (a 200 from memory) round this way.

Bit of a thread Necro, but I'm pretty sure this is the car we own now, based in Burgess Hill, so not far from you Mike.

243 is now on my drive, I brought it from a Renault dealer though, so I guess he must have got bored of trying to shift it on eBay...

Cheers fella, been involved with a few 20vT transplants in Mk2's as well as the ubiquitous VR6 conversion, fancied something different with the Mk1 though, hence the throttle bodied 2.0 16v ;) 197 is a great daily, the fuel bill and high revs are a bit of a shock though compared to our old...

Sorry chap, mine was literally plug n' play damn straight! good work

Nice one, is that your real post count by the way? :o Hmm, I'm by no means familiar enough with these little cars yet to offer much more advice, sorry fella!

yep, just a lead from ebay that plugs into the std. "update list" stereo, presume you've got the "AUX" option set up?

Cheers Fella Had a play tonight and got the lead installed, just ran it down behind the centre console and had it come out the bottom of the trim round the tunnel, sounds worse than it looks, but sounds ok for now!

Thanks for the welcome guys :thumbup: Ok, well here goes... 2002 GSXR1000 Reynolds Replica, 3/20, 190bhp, Ohlins suspension, Brembos, full BSB motor, Yoshi Q/R 'box, Yoshi Exhaust, etc etc The other one is a '97 750, which is currently for sale, fairly tricked up too Cheers...

Now in mine and my wife's possession, stock R27 in DB from what I can tell:

Hi All, Just thought I'd sign up here in case I need any info in the future, I'm a die hard VW fan, and work for one of the UK's largest VW Parts suppliers, however, nothing in the VW range flicked my switches, so me and the wife decided upon a 197, only had it a few days, and love it to bits...
