Georges Clio after I done headwork nearly clipped th elimiter in 5th a few times. I managed to get my 1.4 19 up to nearly 140 down a massive hill once.
Stu, Geo and me going to blackpool we were sitting a ton 10 most of the way with the occasinal burst to 120. |

I remain highly skeptical as well... I just feel that I surely would have seen at least one... |

must be a phase 3 thing, a pic i found of another swooping dash -
Switches are also different by the looks of them to phase 2. |
Just like my dash
Except for that car stereo, i only got the Blaupunkt 4x15w casette still in it  |

those phase 3 swoopy dash switches do match the leccy window switches on our UK phase 2s though... bloody Renault... a bit of consistency would be nice.
I can understand them not wanting to tool up for a whole RHD dash, but they could at least have given us those switches! |

i wonder if the plugs / connectors match the uk phase 2 switches . .
maybe we could persuade srr over there to send over some (after paying him of course thru paypal or similar) |

I have found some on ebay germany.
only £3.80 at the mo for the full set and £5 postage so may take a risk and get those.
there is also a swoopy dashboard for sale but of course it's LHD so no use to me. |
