Deep Black - |R27 F1

[Vladikar]

Well here I have some pics of my first 197! I've owned this now for two weeks and it is safe to say I am hooked, everything about it is unreal.

I love being inside it and I can't stop checking her out from my window before bedtime.









Im in Manchester so I will be attending the next NW meet for definite!

Would like to thank one particular member - Tailslide 'AKA' Mark for being such a great help from the beginning stages of me considering buying a 197 - to the final later stages of me worrying about what to use to keep the carpets clean . He has been really helpful throughout so deserves a special mention (no homo) haha. Mark, thank you!

It's got 9k miles on it at the minute. Recaros, AC etc. Love it!

I guess coming from a 1.1 Clio the MPG has changed slightly but it's a small price to pay in my opinion.

 

[MikeLYR27]

wow thats nothing!! good find mate. errr yeah the mpg is a bit of a drop lol. id propb say 28 is most peoples average.

 

[Curley]

Lovely! R27s look so good in black.
