I have been checking out Renault 197 Cup on 2008 and 09 plates. This seems like an AOK car. Pretty quick, good interior, good sports suspension. But I might miss the 206 GTi just that lil bit. lol

Perhaps best to look on bright side...your Ok and not hurt/injured. Car's are metal can be fixed, written off and replaced. We can't be!

Mmm, get some Physio ;-). Sorry to hear that.

Hey dunno about the 182's but the 197 Cup has had some ok and in parts good reviews.
Just that my 206 GTi is a 2001 year, 96K on clock. Other than that its in good condition. And I have replaced and serviced looked after it. Never broken down on me, and its good to drive. Yet I fancy a change of car soon, like in a few months time.

yes you can fit a new rear quarter, glass needs removing, rear bumper and tailgate, and then all around the edges of the quarter panel the spot welds need drilling out, then a new rear quarter panel bonded and spot welded into place

cheers Smile ye need to get it sorted really is acking at the mo.

RE clio, make sure you test drive it for at leaset an hour and not 15 mins like i did. i and take it round town and open road. becuase i found stop staring traffic, a night mare and the clutch was either on or off and the temp of the engine shoots up quick
