What to buy!

[Craig_B]

I've been wanting to buy something for the 197 for a while now, and with FCS coming up I wanted something by then!

All what I've got already is in my sig.

Would like an exhaust but being £500 they are a bit pricey!

What do people think? Should I leave it until I know what I really want/need?

Cheers

Do you have any recent photos? It might help people if you drop a couple in this thread so they can make suggestions?

From your current list, I would say the next thing should be an exhaust if you can stretch to it.

 

[Willis]

Exhaust. Have a look for a secondhand bargain.

Or go straight to Oreca Shop and get one for €474...

 

[Chris197F1]

yeah exhaust mate and like Willis said, have a look for a second hand one to save some pennies

Perfect. I wouldn't change the appearance now.

yeah?

I still sometimes think something is missing from the front end. but in that last photo it looks fine!

 

[Chrisgti6]

Projectors and painted calipers?

Did you ever finish your DIY wheels?

Projectors and painted calipers?

I don't like the look of projectors, on black anyway

Did you ever finish your DIY wheels?

They are in the garage, I have got 2 more coats to do on one wheel and they should be done!

K-Tec offer finance now. £50 deposit and circa £40-£45 a month for 12 months on a Milltek or JP...

I'm tempted, but don't like the idea of finance if I'm honest. Don't know why.

Its nothing big but i recon the new renaultsport badge on the back to replace the old one would look good, nice subtle change

 

[Tom]

What's their interest rate? If it's 0% - then why not? Then again, you could save £500 quite quickly, I'm sure...

What about wheel spacers?

 

[Chris197F1]

no its not 0% unfortunately. Tom people have different outgoings/commitments so its not easy for everyone to save £500 quickly

 

[Ollie RS]

i would get some black badge covers, a good cheap mod in my opinion

 

[deadmau5]

But the thing with finance is that you can have the product NOW and pay for it LATER. It's also more convenient to pay a small amount each month than saving £250 a month for 2 months. I think the cost of the finance is about £30 over the year, which I don't think is too unreasonable.

 

[Tom]

Depends on how quick you can save £500, really. If it's gonna take 4 months +, I'd probs get finance. If not, I'd wait.

The exhaust isn't going anywhere...

Then again, FCS is right around the corner.
