Hi guys recently became the owner of a 197, its my first "decent" car if you like and i am overall pretty happy with it. It has a few knocks and bangs occasionally which seem pretty common from reading on here, and the odd time when booting it round a corner it judders abit, but overall i love it.
But one main concern is that im not sure if it is as quick as it should be. Ok its quicker than my crap 307 diesel (what isnt lol) but it seems somewhat underwhelming. My mate has an astra 1.9 cdti 150 and i would say that feels faster in all areas, especially top end, as my clio seems to almost give up at about 120mph. And if im honest the acceleration isnt amazing.
Anyone have any ideas what could be wrong with it? Im willing to but a bit of time effort and money into it coz i do love it, i just want it to be as good as it is designed to be.
Also does anyone no of any decent renault/sport places around the doncaster and yorkshire region.
Any comments and help much appreciated guys, love to forum too!
