Loved the drive home, it's taught! Lol, love the crackles of the exhaust even when your going slow! Gearbox it lovely I have to say, steering very precise, and the seats are amongst the most comfortable I've ever sat in, and I say in! Lol, my brother in law brought me across in his new 2016 rs focus and I have to say, even his recaro seats were not as snug, seating position to wheel is perfect for me, it just feels like a small race car.

All in all well happy, I did him and haw a bit over the car as I didn't actually need another car but in the end the condition was what made me buy it, still really don't need it but I've got it and I know having now driven it Ib be kicking myself if I'd missed it!

Again sorry for the bad quality pics, I'm an iPad photographer! Lol

Cheers Anthony

Ps, I haven't washed it yet either, this is as I received it!
 
Cracking car - it has certainly gone to a good home and even better that you love it so much!

Even though i've got one......i'm somehow jealous of everyone who picks up a new to them - or otherwise - Clio RS !

Looks gorg pal. Look after it and have fun............ :smile:

****Only thing i will say - it's crying out for some nice RS mats of some sort. Not the cheap car shop looking ones supplied.

Cheers guys, I'm sure I'll add my little touches but I have to say John had pretty much nailed it! I'll check out the matts front too

Only thing I might do and I'll prob get screamed at! I really do have a thing about red calipers! I just can't come to really like them, as I said to John, I MIGHT get the fronts done on the ( right shade to me ) yellow and the back done a dark metallic anthracite as I think all round might be a bit garish?

Just in my thoughts at the mo, as John said, I would tie in with the yellow in the f1 badge.

Don't want it to look a chav chariot either!
 
Looks like it's in immaculate condition mate, inside and out! :french:

First things first I'd definitely get an RS steering wheel insert :thumb:

Glad you're enjoying the car already Anthony, as said before you've got yourself a really nice example there! Fantastic cars to own.

So good to see this lovely motor go to a good home. You must be absolutely thrilled.

If you're going to change the colour of the brakes do them all the same. But red is as it should be on an R27 :thumb:

GORGEOUS car!

I'm glad to hear you got it home safe and sound @Cossers, it was a pleasure dealing with you and I know he's gone to a good home.

A lot of people have missed the chance to own a truly special car. I wish you the best of times with Leo and hope he brings you as much happiness as he did me.

Cheers lads, have loved the welcome :smile:

Prob leave the calipers alone TBH, it was just a thought! Just me over thinking the styling :smile:

Yep, love it, they are a great car, very focused but I really like that about it, has turned out to be a bit of a head turned too, young and old.

Cheers, the mats are pretty decent in the flesh, actually good quality but I hear what your saying, seen the Renaultsport ones, very nice, think I might go for the yellow badge and stitched ones just for a small lift as I think yellow, although bright, is one of the only colours that contrast blue well"
