Hope your right, sorry lucky.
As many have failed & seen horendous damage as a result.
If the aux snaps you will be lucky not to have the cambelt shredded also.
Was several threads on RS where they had, had this happen some were low miles.
I understood Renault techs say 3yrs 36K.
Not worth...
Bollocks to not driving it.
I always drive the cars till collected don't understand why you agreed to that :shock:
On the deposit, i sold mine & took £500 depoist from young lad within hours of advertisng. His dad phoned day or so later & told me he had agreed to give his son 10K to buy &...
Standard is pap unless for poping to the shops.
Ds 2500 & brembo HC'c & good fliud are fantastic fast road but as mentioned not the best on track.
Amm's trophy with the PF97's had the best stopping power but traded off against paint damage etc.
The R888's go off very quick indeed if over...
Tried both before choosing the Cup.
Jimboss is close the meg has lsd & turbo, was it cupped?
The 197 Cup has the same brakes, revo knuckle, less weight etc so the stopping, turn in etc are way better.

To say the 197 isn't...
The wax is the important bit, once polished just keep topping up the wax.
Only ever polished mine in the spring rest of the time a good wax was used.
If your lazy Collinites think it's 746 in the tin is perfect :lol:
If you drive it like a girl you will be fine.
If you drive it like it was intended to be driven things will go wrong, but nothing the warranty wasn't able to fix in my case :lol:
As the rubber top mount with bearing compresses so the gap gets bigger.
You have already said you have added more camber hence the angle :D
It's a crap design.
Now come Aug/Sept do i get one of these or a used 26R??
From that clip it can take abuse straight out the box, as stated most hot hatches would give up after a few laps.
Why?
Correct.
Now they are bedded in i can say they are fooking awesome.
Only down side is more road noise due to very stiff tyre walls, ala r888.
In the dry they are emense & for the couple of wet days we have had i started slowly as was wary of them letting go. But after a few runs through the...
