FYI Monster buy the R1 dampers direct from Dieppe, whilst dealers buy from Renault UK. No dealer can match Monster's price.

Did you ever get to the bottom of this?

PS3's in W rating have stiffer side walls. or try - Yoks AD08s

Welcome!

If a head-to-head test was conducted to assess Cup, Sachs and say H&R Coilover dampers, I wonder if we are able to say what the results would be on the road and track? I like the idea of the Cup dampers because they are so cheap (circa £100/pair) and must be pretty good. I like the Sachs...

Hi Dave - I knew you were impressed, just wondered if that is still the case. Presume so.

Dave - how are you finding the H&R coilovers?

Ktec coilovers seem remarkably inexpensive at around £300? How does it handle? Any other mods lurking?

Welcome! What suspension do you have as it's incredibly low? Looks mean BTW!

These posts make for interesting reading - technical that even the non-technical like me can understand.

Spotted yesterday about 6pm. Reg I think was LY05.... looked pretty tidy as I passed.

Felix - have you gone ahead and replaced the Sach with Cup dampers?

It's incredible to think that the 182 Cup dampers (weighing in at ~£100/pair) are about x10 times the price of Sach dampers. I mean, they are not x10 better. The Cup dampers do seem exceptionally good value.

Your golf looks awesome. What engine is that? Not keen on the wheels

Thanks for the heads-up. 233 is not registered on here?

When I was there about 2yrs ago it was leaning against a wall with your name and address on. I have a photo of it too!

I'm surprised a Renault dealership is selling such a high mileage car

Looks very tidy.

Can you now order these closer to home? Most dealers are happy to match prices.

agree 100%

Continental SC 3s are oem on 197s

How much for the rug?

7k miles - are you driving flat out everywhere? For outright dry weather grip you should consider Yokohama AD08s. They are meant to be fairly handy in the wet too. My money is on them next time around.

Nice one. I recognise that number plate.

Hi I need a new battery and wonder if it's worth paying a little more than what Renault sell? A Bosch Silver HSB063 (£90) gets very good reviews on Halfords website the main - the main comment is it's very powerful. It also comes with a 5 yr warranty. One from Renault is £65. They are all...

+ he has an obsessive need to collect number plates starting with RIB...

Where are you based? I know the Cambridge T on PH. He bought it about 2yrs ago and is a mature owner - he also has a yellow Renault A610 lurking in his garage.
