    You would think lol! These Recaro's have such a high bolster where as my other cars don't. What's the trick to getting in and out of them then bud? Mate, I'd be robbing you! :rofl:

    So I've finally picked up a 197 a few days ago. Black on an 07 plate, totally standard other than Recaro seats which I'm starting to dislike (getting in and out of them is a pain in the ass) :pinky::d I painted the wheels gloss black as they needed a repaint lol but I'm looking to lower it and...

    I like the option of having the roof down for the one or two days of sun we do get every year haha! My first Ferrari was a 360 but that wasn't a convertible. It was an awesome car but on the odd day when the sun was out I used to think it would be nice to have the top down. I started buying soft...

    I need a daily run about. I had a Clio 182 many years ago and it was fun so I'm thinking a 197 might be similar.

    Haha!! That's what I thought when I found out. I own a few Supercars and some of them tend to have high ownership but that's purely because people like them for summer and then move them on in Autumn etc. I didn't think this was the case for this car lol.

    Cheers lads. I also realise that I'd be the 10th owner on the car! Is high ownership common with these cars?

    I ended up not buying the car. It looked amazing but it had an oil leak across the from of the engine and upon doing a hpi check there was a mileage discrepancy which put me off the car. It's a shame as I actually fell in love with car as soon as I saw it :-(

    Thanks guys :-) It was a choice between this 197 cup or a golf gti turbo. I'm thinking I made the right choice even though the Clio is more expensive :-)

    I'm not sure bud. He hasn't mentioned that it's been mapped. I guess there's no way of knowing unless I get it checked?

    Thank you :-) I've read about the gearbox issues but I've also read that they were sorted on cars after 07. Is that right?
