Must say i do love the colour however i think it would look better with the black speedlines, still nice though matey :wink:

 

[gorilla]

I like those alloys as are - Perfect colour - Whens the white go faster stripes coming thou??

 

[PB.283]

Everyone has black speedlines. Also they are satin and not gloss, they also have anthracite centre caps!

Looks VERY nice. I prefer the black wheels. You have the std seats, any reason?

Hope your car doesn't suffer the flat spot/kangarooing/engine roughness so many 200's seem to suffer from.

 

[PB.283]

Yes standard seats for several reasons.

1. The recaros wear in about 5 mins
2. The standard seats are pretty good
3. I have an 18 month old daughter so access is better with standard
4. Recaros are £950

Not known off this issue .....

The engine can be a little rough when cold but so can a 182s.

But once it's warm it's an absolute peach, a big improvement over the 182's, it has loads more low down grunt and revs longer and harder too!

If you read the RS forum, it's a big problem for many 200s.

You took it to 'cars in the park' then?

It needs to power to carry round all those extra lbs. Ha,ha. Easy on the Doughnuts there Clio. :wink:

Note: i may only be saying this as i am a bit jealous after seeing the 200 Vs Focus RS video

197's also suffer this, BUT only if you drive like a girl

Like the colour, beware of those wheels in winter as i had a set & they do not like salt! Raider wheels?

I don't get this 'do you miss it?'

 

[PB.283]

Got the wheels sorted!

See the wax in my pics, that every 3 to six months will stop any probs!!
