As some of you may know i drove a Clio GT DCI with a brilliant spec, The GT was a fantastic car, but i have always wanted an RS so when i found out insurance was becoming realistic on one the search began,

After searching and searching for the right one that could compare to the GT in terms of spec, i came across a RS 200 Raider 3/50 in Stealth Grey with the TomTom, but it was 250 mile away so after nearly two weeks me, my brother and my dad had the time to travel from Teesside to Essex to go see it and when we got there it was stunning, so after purchasing it we set off back home managed to get 35.8 MPG out of it on the journey home only using half a tank which i was very pleased about even coming from a diesel.

About the Raider:

Stealth Grey Paint
18" Interlagos Wheels
Full Leather Interior
Leather Recaros
TomTom
iPod Connectivity
Bluetooth
Cup Chassis
Carbon Badges And Bullets
aswell as the rest of the 200 usual spec

14,000 on the clock the previous owner had only done 2000 mile in the last year,

feels very solid and composed
gearbox selects gears easily no crunchiness

a couple of images from the journey home

the colour is fantastic with so many different colours when caught at different angles with Blues, Greens, Purples, Bronzes all mixed in there, photographs dont do it any justice,

As for mods im still very undecided so we shall see what the future holds but for now i will just enjoy it for what it as it is absolutely fantastic out of the box i couldn't be happier with it

Looks awesome! Very jealous! Still need to see one in the flesh though!

Thanks mate, pictures don't do them justice at all

very nice indeed :wiz:
Very very nice car, health to enjoy.

Thanks lads

Awesome! Look forward to seeing it Glenn!

Cheers Simon will be at the next meet, I should hope along with my brother who is picking a LY 200 up on Saturday, and j_gadd4 with the UR 200
 
Cracking example! Loving how the insurance for an rs was becoming reasonable so you got the best of the best :smiley:
 
I had a look at that LY 200 in EH Middlesbrough it looked very nice but the window price was quite high. I've notice the price come down over the last few weeks mind. Looks about right now I would say.
My mate text me today saying he saw a Grey Raider in Redcar yesterday whilst out with his daughter! He said it looked superb and that he couldn't believe how good it looked in the flesh.

Oh i thought you you meant the UR 200, no my brother is getting Luke's (LY 200) RS 200 which I must say is absolutely stunning he has looked after it well and has a couple of nice mods, that will of been me, it is a stunning colour in the flesh
