It also has some bristol street motor stickers and a diamon-bright stickers in the interior of the windows if this helps at all.

Had my red clio 197 56 plate stolen from my house today. They broke in the house and stole the key. Its a 56 plate ending in TGU. It is pretty standard with just some new exhaust tips on it. It has some scratches on the passenger side rear seat fabric and then just the usual bumps and scratches...

Oh and i always try warm it up otherwise it bounces down the round in first and second lol

I do rev it all the way. After about 5000 rpm doesnt the power valves kick in?? Mine doesnt seem to feel much quicker after 5000 mark? And i only ever use bog standrd 95 fuel does this make a big difference?

Thanks for the info guys very helpfull :)

Hi again guys, Anyone no of a good place in yorkshire area who knows these cars inside out? Recently bought one and would like piece of mind by letting someone who knows what there doing have a good look around and have a check of everything. Just to make sure there are no common problems...

Hi guys I have bought the ones in the first ebay link on the first post but not got round to fitting them yet. The first guy mentioned using jubilee clips but some guys seem to have just pushed them on. I take it they are a snug fit then, if so are they secure enough just pushing them on? Cheers

Cheers buddy i may look into a remap then, do u reckon this would need to be coupled with a new exhaust or would it be a decent option on its own?

Cheers guys i think its probably running how it should as its in really good nick inside and out as far a i can see and has full service history, may still take it to rstuning and see why shes kicking out. I will post again with power results!

Hi guys Whats a remap like for a 197? Ive enquired at rstuning in leeds n was told to expect around 5hp peak improvement. It just seems a lot of money for not much gain, would a cat back exhaust system like miltek be a better option or no good on it own? And Just wondering if it is worth...

Full history with a couple of main dealer stamps and just had one by the indpendant i bought it off (or so they say lol, i never trust those people) Im off to work soon so will try a 0-60 run and see what she gets

Okay chris where abouts is this 30quid, are u in yorkshire? I only want a cheap quick run for an estimate so i can see if it is down on power and then work from there. Any ideas what the problem would be if it was down?

Oh yes and what fuel economy do you guys get mine loves a drink! Its averages around 24mpg and i dont thrash it everywhere by no means

Okay then guys thanks for the speedy replies! I dont know if its just me but somedays it feels quicker than others, not sure if this is possible lol. Maybe it is running okay and im expecting abit too much but surley it would beat a 150 astra diesel??? I guess i will get it on a dyno and see...

Hi guys recently became the owner of a 197, its my first "decent" car if you like and i am overall pretty happy with it. It has a few knocks and bangs occasionally which seem pretty common from reading on here, and the odd time when booting it round a corner it judders abit, but overall i love...
