New owner 200 Rs Cup from the Netherlands

[Rick Voskamp]

Goodmorning everyone,

I am the proud owner of a 2009 Clio with about 74.000 miles on it. Last weekend i took it for a spin to the Eifel (Nurburgring) to feel how the car behaves, it is just astonishing! I have the car now for 3 days and until now not a single moment of regret. I bought this car with the idea to make it a 'ringtool'. The Nurburgring is just a big passion of mine.

I have a few plans for the car, like: a rollcage, bucket seats, 6 point harness, other brakes (the same diameter i think) and a bit of other stuff. Today the new front/under ball joints with come in (compleet with arms)

I will try to keep it updated, and i'm curious about other people's 197/200 clio's
2 pics, one of the Clio the other car is my second car, a Golf Mk5 R32 dsg, totally different. But such a great and nice motor!

Greetings,
Rick from the Netherlands

That gives confidence, i have never driven Spa. Sound awesome, i wish you a lot of fun! I will spend my holiday in July at the Ring. Maybe try a few laps, but don't know for sure, it has to be in good condition first. Thanks!

Hi Rick and welcome from a fellow countryman. My 197 R27 is Nimbus too, such a great color. Maybe we'll meet one day at the Nordschleife because I'm also a big fan like you.

Hello and welcome, would you dutch guys help me in case i found my dream BMW from Holland, and i need help with exporting?

Hi Antti, I have no experience with exporting from the Netherlands, only importing into the Netherlands. But if you do, don't hesitate to contact me.

Okay thats really nice!

There is quite a few special dealerships who sells "youngtimers" like auto arp, premiumclassics etc..
They dont offer "transport plates" like they do have in germany.
