Hi there,

Well the weather was pants yesterday, and I have been out shopping today so not had time to wash the car ready for my pics.

My son took some when we were out yesterday which have come out ok, but please remember the car is dirty.









Regards

Tim

Tidy R27 you have there. I am a big fan of Nimbus too.

Are you planning on doing the same mileage you've been doing in the Scirocco? Not sure you'll be so smitten in a few months!!

Hi there,

Hopefully not, the idea is to split the miles between the two cars.
Took my wife out today for the first time in the R27, and she did mention that the ride was a bit firm !!

Yes, I used to get similar comments about the ride but it is the trade off for some decent handling.

I never got round to doing one but the trackdays run by Renaultsport get good reviews - www.renaultsport.co.uk. They have an owners forum that may be useful if you've any issues.

Enjoy.

Renault did change thhe gear ratios after this car was made after customer feedback that 6th was too short for normal driving.

Nice car, any. Pics of the inside?

Great car and the best colour, very similar to the one I had.

Enjoy!
