There's loads more to be added when I've got another spare hour to go through them. :smile:
 
your on a role with these :wink: good work!

Hahaha cheers mate!!! I hate having nothing to do whilst I'm off so i't kept me busy.

Once I've added the rest I'll do the red/blue thing again for those better than the 197/200.
 
Always liked the Renault 19, although I had it in my head it was a turbo for some reason. 88lbs/ft torque :nope:

Afraid not, it uses the 1.8 16V from the Clio RSi. :wink:

That was a typo' by the way, should've read 117...

That would be the 1.8 16v engine from clio 16v, the rsi was a 8v wasnt it?

Sorry yes you're right, I've only done a few of the Clio so far. The RSi was ~110BHP 1.8 8v, the 16V was ~130BHP 1.8 16V.

The 1.8 16V lump was what later evolved into the F7R for the Williams.

Another wicked thread dude. :smile:

Cheers mate. :smile:
