Another Nimbus Grey 197 in Devon

[James Fitzmaurice]

Hi Chaps, I've just bought this 197, my first Renault and my first French car for many a year, my last was a 205 GTi some 17 years ago. I've been driving mainly Jap stuff with the odd German but I've always had an itch for a Clio RS so looking forward to collecting this later today. It's got a few go faster bits already fitted including a miltek and manifold so it sounds pretty nice. I'll post up some proper photos once I've collected it.
Cheers James

Thanks everyone, I've picked it up, I enjoyed the drive home, next stop is Ktec for a cambelt and water pump .

Yup without a doubt the car has a lot of history but a dubious cambelt receipt from two years ago, hence the visit to Ktec . thankfully the seller was decent and dropped the price to cover the expense .
