    Let down by garage

    Hi all, Haven't posted much since I returned to the forum with a new Clio after a brief stint in a Fiesta ST but I've come to a bit of a catch 22 and I'm after a bit of friendly forum advice. I bought a 61 plate Racing Blue 200 around 4 months ago. Immaculate, full Renault/renown-specialist...

    Hi gang, I was around here a couple of years ago with my 197. This weekend, I picked up an '11 plate 200 FF in Racing Blue with Recaros and Cup Pack. Already treated it to some new discs and Ferodo DS2500 pads. I look forward to attending more 197.net meet ups and events. Cheers! James

    Has anyone been to IKEA recently? I was stood in their Southampton shop yesterday watching a video about their home design and the outside shot featured a lovely 200 Gordini on the drive! Anyone else spotted this??

    Lumpy rev range when warm & oil pressure fault

    Hi everyone, I've done as much searching through the forum as I can and I think it may be best if I just ask, as I know you guys are helpful! So the problem first aroused during my girlfriends commute home. She came home and said the car was hesitant accelerating in 6th from 50mph in light...

    Subframe Rot

    Hi everyone, Not sure if I'm writing in the correct section but I'm sure a mod could move it... Anyway, my car is having a service at a local garage (a family friend) and while up on the ramp, he noticed the front subframe has rotton and is falling into bits. He showed me and I was surprised...

    Silverstone Potential Owner

    Hi everyone, Just thought I'd bring this up here as I'm guessing you'll know best! On Saturday, I'm off to test drive and have a look at #26 (I think) at a Renault dealer. It's up for nearly 13K with 10,300 miles on it. I have a 197 Cup and I am looking to swap it for a 200 FF with Cup pack...

    Words cannot describe...

    My girlfriend just showed me this and I wondered if anyone else has seen it? I am actually lost for any words but swearing. In honesty I laughed a little at the guy behind the lens and his ridiculous commentary but the incident itself is actually mind boggling. Is it really that easy to get on...

    Cheap, sporty diesels

    Hello everyone, My Clio is going in lieu of a diesel for my girlfriend's new commute to work. Tried and tested this week and we don't fancy financing two and a half tanks per week... We're after getting a relatively cheap oil burner but keeping things reasonably sporty or cool. I'll be...

    Megane RS 175 dci

    Hey everyone, Has anyone ever had any experience with the diesel version of the RS Megane? Or know anyone who's had one/got one?
