^Probably SWF! haha ;)

When i got my 182 in 2006 i dabbled with 99 but fact is it was shocking when compared to Ultima and was even more shocking when compared with Optimax/V-Power! The car sounded like a bag of tools most of the time on anything but the best two so i have consistantly used BP/Shell only ever...

Mines a late 58 plate to maybe i have evaded the problems too but having said that i doubt they would've changed the way the cars were made until the 200! How many miles has yours covered for the Recaro to start wearing mate?

Iv had mine knocking on a few weeks now and dont know what this Kangaroo'ing is all about! If i dont have it does that mean my engines evaded the issue? lol

Looks brilliant Jase! They really did get the rear of the mk3 right with the 200.

I had four adults in my 182 plenty of times with no problems so im sure you'll be fine in the bigger 197 mate - Unless the size of it inside looks wise has desieved me! lol

I meant cup chassis 197, cup chassis 200 mate! Thats what i was going on! I never drove a basic 200 and im not buying a basic 197! I just assumed as long as i stuck to cup chassis in the 197 i wouldnt be dissapointed! Only time will tell i suppose.

I hope there isnt that much noticeable difference as i am buying a well spec'd 197 based on my drive in a 200 that i wasnt overly impressed with coming form the 182! It was just the build, chassis and newness factor that signed me up all of which i will be getting in the 197 all be it with a...

^Right! OK! I just thought whilst they were upgrading everything else the brakes wouldve changed too! Bit of guestimate on my part there! lol The cup chassis are different though yes?

Im really suprised they are 'that much' better/different to the 197!? I didnt even realise the cup chassis and brakes were any different! How did the R27 fair when compared to your Cup?

Darker in winter, lighter in the summer then! lol You go to a showroom and look at one and it will be a hell of alot closer to the last two (if not abit lighter) than the first few! Well that was the case when i was going to buy a showroom 200 back in the summer anyway.

More like the colour you dont like! Its very 'smurf' like in the flesh! The one you like is just on a dark and dingy day by the looks of it making the car look dark! I personally love it! My first choice for looks along with LY.

Thats totally mad that a brand like Recaro would supply such flimsy, shit seats for a well respected hatch like the RS! They are a must option in my next car but i really hope i dont have problems with them myself!

Haha a Rayliegh chap eh!? Im over your way most Saturdays spreading my love in the Brush! :lol: What car you rocking mate?

I wasnt really mate - I was just saying my last two were as good as gold so was hoping the newer model would be too despite the reliability issues that seem to be wide/common over on CS! I suppose thats no different to any Clio though as all Clios are unreliable rust buckets that fall apart as...

So really like the others its luck of the draw! Some are good some are bad then!? I can live with that, especially as i dont cover much more than 2k a year and the car will be garaged and mainatained regardless! I sold it the weekend mate! I will be buying an 08 or younger so it will...

Really compared with the old Clio models!? Having owned a 1.8 16v/2.0 16v and 182 over the last six years (my only cars) and moving onto the next up i am wondering whether they are less reliable as the general idea i get from other forums is that there are so many issues with them!? The...

What problems did you have with it mate? How old was the car? Cheers Jay

Am indeed mate! Canvey Island! You?

I sold my LY Saturday after 4 years Rich/Gem and i thought i would be much worse than i am! It hasnt bothered me that much really as im just looking forward to the future now! lol I would like one too mate but there are so few goodens out there now! Looking in 2004 was bad enough...
