Lol! Hey there Jase, no unfortunately not, the car was driven by a 50 yr old housewife to do the shopping in it before me(!), she only put 7,000 miles on the clock before she sold it and swapped it for a Smart Car! Lol! She specced the cup pack but didn't go for the seats. Just trying to decide whether to go for a re-trim or start saving and go for the Recaros at the mo'.

 

[jase]

recaros all the way.
they will set you back about £1k ish second hand or £600 with a part ex for your seats.

 

[Buddyboy]

Anyone selling any

Welcome Rach!!!

 

[Drew200]

Welcome to the site I've only been on a week and I also have a white rs200

 

[class31]

Welcome, very nice car indeed! I seem to remember my alloys being that colour once, must go clean. Oh no, there's a cloud in the sky never mind!

 

[fallen_angel_walks]

Hey there guys, thanks for the warm welcome!

Jase I'd sell my soul for a set of Recaros, guess I better start saving! I think they might be one of the last things I get done, the alloys are totally wrecked with kerb damage on all four, but first and foremost I think I'll get the ITG Maxogen kit/filter sorted and then the zaust squared away. Get the feeling this car's going to empty my wallet real fast! :biggrin:

 

[fallen_angel_walks]

Drew you got any good tips for keeping them clean, products etc? It's the only time I curse that car and at the moment, although I love the colour some days it drives me crazy! Lol!

 

[fallen_angel_walks]

Class 31 I bet your alloys look a darn site better than mine, they've been kerbed to death, all four of them! I had to Photoshop the pics before posting I was that embarrassed! :'(

 

[class31]

Don't panic, I was the same when I had my Twingo! Managed to very carefully keep the Clio away from kerbs so far, although I've only had it 6 weeks.

 

[fallen_angel_walks]

Cheers class, I'm glad I'm not the only one, soooooo tempted to break out the marker pens!

:welcome: to the site

Down South - where about's?

 

[fallen_angel_walks]

I'm currently stuck in Alder****/Aldershot! How about you?

Wicked wheels, on slyfield industrial estate, Guildford ;-)

 

[Drew200]

I use chemical guys that's good stuff and also use meguiars. I think it's a case of what you find best and easiest to use.

 

[class31]

I sold the car, problem solved!

 

[fallen_angel_walks]

Cheers Jos, I was just about to ask where's best to go and thanks for the tips Drew, appreciate it. Class I couldn't do it... not unless a LY with Recaros turns up on my doorstep! :drool:
