welshmark Posted 2, April 2014 Author Report Posted 2, April 2014 Welcome and congrats! Here are you located? What cars have you owned before? Cheers, Im in Perth - this will be my first Renault car I am currently driving an XR5 which has been a great car to own, deciding it was time for a change tried out various cars, Fiesta + Focus ST, AE86, Veloster turbo and a few more, but none of them left me with a big smile on my face after the test drive except the Renault, cant wait to get my hands on it now - Mark Quote
wi1co Posted 2, April 2014 Report Posted 2, April 2014 deciding it was time for a change tried out various cars, Fiesta + Focus ST, AE86, Veloster turbo and a few more Welcome and well done for not choosing the Veloster Turbo You would have been happy with either Fords or this Clio - better hook up with the forum member RS200EDC for some pretty pics in your area Quote

welshmark Posted 15, April 2014 Author Report Posted 15, April 2014 Hi RS 200EDC, Will do mate - Ive only seen one on the road so far in Perth (sport in red) so will be a pretty exclusive club Quote
RS 200EDC Posted 19, April 2014 Report Posted 19, April 2014 Hi RS 200EDC, Will do mate - Ive only seen one on the road so far in Perth (sport in red) so will be a pretty exclusive club I think I've seen that RSC4 around my area at night. Was quite shocked to see another on the road so quickly. (roughly 2 months ago) Have been told that there is a few driving around the Osborne Park dealership and a sales person from Melville said they are selling about 2-5 RSC4's every week. I feel the club won't be exclusive for much longer! Quote
wi1co Posted 30, April 2014 Report Posted 30, April 2014 Have been told that there is a few driving around the Osborne Park dealership and a sales person from Melville said they are selling about 2-5 RSC4's every week. maybe selling the stock that's still on the boat/in the factory i reckon if they did that, perth would have the highest RSC4s in Aust!

RS 200EDC Posted 1, May 2014 Report Posted 1, May 2014 I hope not. Quite liking the rareness of my RSC4... Even though it's in the workshop for two weeks >.> <.< Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
m0nty Posted 1, May 2014 Report Posted 1, May 2014 5 a week? Hahaha. That's a good one. How much did his nose grow when he said that? That's more than a metro VW dealer would sell GTI. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote

RS 200EDC Posted 8, May 2014 Report Posted 8, May 2014 What's it in the workshop for? nothing major i hope Reversed into a bl**dy bollard at a fuel servo. Smack bang in the middle, thing was too low to see out the window, sensors didn't go off (weird) and the camera was stuck between day and night mode so it was flickering. Finally got it back today, dodgy job on the rear window, boot button is not stuck in and falls out... Back to complaining to SGIO However I'm glad to have my baby back and can chuck the disgusting rental Camry back to Hertz! How long until you take delivery? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote

welshmark Posted 26, May 2014 Author Report Posted 26, May 2014 Have you heard anything from the dealer yet??? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk No nothing mate, it’s like one of those western scenes where you look up and down the street and theirs nothing but that tumbleweed blowing through Will ring the them today, Ive never waited this long for a car before but I’m sure it will be worth it, I think it’s just the lack of dealer contact that gets to you, an e-mail every now and then would keep you excited!! UPDATE - Rang dealer car is waiting for the compliance plates etc, will be done this week then delivery over to Perth so about 2.5 weeks Quote
Inheritor Posted 26, May 2014 Report Posted 26, May 2014 Nothing worse than the deafening silence from the dealer, i had a similar issue though not as drawn out as yours, it took a sharply worded email (one of my best) cc'd to head office to get any info on what was happening. It'll be worth the wait, i smile every time i get behind the wheel. Quote

RS 200EDC Posted 27, May 2014 Report Posted 27, May 2014 YAAAAAAAAAAAY so happy for you! Can't wait to (hopefully) see another Black Sport on the road! Edit: is it bad if I suggest pictures of the twins upon delivery? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
