You make an excellent point buddy, our MK3 interiors are dreadful!!
But it's not the quality/looks of the interior I've got an issue with, it's the colour theme.
Forcing red on all interiors make absolutely no sense!!! It's just like forcing everybody to have a green interior theme... yes that might make sense for some car colours but not all. And it's not even subtle, absolutely everything is red, there's too much of it!!
Don't get me wrong I like the colour red in general, but it only really suits black, white or red cars, anything other car colours it just feels... wrong :excited:
Just for balance....I'm With Dale. Sat in a couple of 200t's at the weekend and I could never live with all the red touches unless perhaps the exterior was red
Each to there own though.
Thank you!!! Finally, someone with some sense!!!
I don't have an issue with how the interior looks, I agree it's actually really nice, I just hate the fact that they've forced red into cars which have no business having red interiors, Liquid Yellow being a prime example
It seems 'lazy' to me from Renault, they should have matched the interior theme based off the exterior theme under the logic that, as an example; nobody is going to buy a blue car and then complain that they don't like the fact that the interior theme is also blue!!!
Rant over
I actually really like the Mk3 interior. It's basic and how a hot hatch should be, IMO.
What are the little carbon inserts for? They look great!

Dale, can't believe what I'm reading mate!
That lovely car of yours. You want to give it up for a turbo?!
What's the deal mate, fancy something newer and more grown up?
Agree entirely about the interior red bits but wouldn't break the bank to have all the red bits changed to match the body or to an accent colour of your choice.

I like it too mate. With a few little touches it can look fantastic too.
Agreed. Does everything you need. Does rattle a bit with the updated bushes though
See your point
And 'm not saying it should be; or expecting a hot hatch to be toy-filled or sumptuous.Just using materials in more than one dull-grey colour would have helped 'brighten' the thing up a little !
If the interior had a persona: it would be the most boring accountant you'd ever met...........

Boring account with a lovely big arse and curves to match

Also, was taking stuff out the boot earlier and it always makes me smile how awesome the Recaro's look from behind...
Edit: you can see all three of Shuv's group buy items between the last two pictures I've posted

The tank cover looks great! I thought that it might look a bit odd with nothing else CF in the bay (as mine is like that), but it actually goes really well with the black trim! Good work Shuvster!
And yeah, loving the Recaros Dale
Yeah my initial thought was as you say it might look weird with nothing else carbon fibre, but it looks great!
Although I am tempted to get the inlet manifold badge to match

Definitely go for the inlet badge as well - you just know it will be a quality item if it comes from House of Shuv

Think we should just rename the group buy section to 'Shuv's Carbon Shack'
And a surge in orders has led to an upsizing of my International Shed-quarters.......
