whats your top speed and acceleration

[Michael172]

all on the airfield in your garage yes ? lol jk.

we all do it. just those of us who keep doing it are retarded. lol.

 

[mattsport182cup]

6.2s-6.4s to 0-62mph and 155mph top speed

 

[Chris n nic]

0-60 5.39 0-100 probably just over 15 secs. Don't bother with top end but had 145 indicated....aren't the gearboxes maxed out near that anyway?

[Leeshez]

I got to 137 according to the clock on my 182.

 

[G_F]

140mph, outside of a school at 4pm, nearly knocked two children down and drove over some pregnant womans feet, i was in a rush to get a cheque from the bank, i had claimed all my charges back

seriously I hope your joking

 

[pinky]

is it just me or does everyone say "it feels quite nippy" about their 1.2's. regardless of what car it is, i've heard this phrase so many times. a bloke at work told me his punto 1.2 was "not fast but pretty nippy".

what does that actually mean?

oh and people with clio 1.2's please stop thinking your car is capable of out pacing, out handling, or out anything my car.i get more of them up my arse wanting to race than any other car (including the more realistic 172/182 - at least thay'd have a chance)

p.s this isn't a personal attack on anyone in particular but surely i'm not the only one who's been told their car is "quite nippy". this must be the most overused phrase ever. every car nowadays is nippy, whatever that means

i like the word nippy! my 1.2 16v is nippy it means it gets there quick for a 1149cc car.
heres a little clip of a 0-60...not too bad for my first car.
this is with a pipercross induction kit but gonna try again now iv got my powerflow backbox as it feels even nippier! lol.

[ollie]

What's the 0-60 time of a 1.2?

 

[pinky]

according to renault its about 11.6 but mine does it a lot quicker.

 

[ollie]

Thats what they all say, lol :rasp:

 

[Reyes]

they would have more than a chance a 182 is as quick as a type-r anyway..
ppl think there car is nippy because they more than likely havent drove anything faster i said it with me corsa sxi then me pug 206, when people rate cars it should be 0-100 not 0-60

 

[ozzie]

i agree that 0-100 is a far better indication of acceleration. i think if you can get under 15 with fwd you've got a pretty quick car. oh and i also agree that a 182 is as quick as a type-r too. it's just that i was talking about my car personally which is a bit of a modified beast.

 

[Phoenix]

my 1.8 RSi mk 1 has been to 140 lol...with the speedo being roughly 10mph out so bout 130mph as for 0-60....roughly 8 seconds...

 

[TheJesus]

151mph on GPS... kiss the rings b**ch!

 

[DCI_DUDE]

beats most saxo's/corsa's to 60 and had 120 on the speeso so prob 113

 

[trile]

6.83s 0-60
136 mph on the speedo
134 on the gps

 

[jonny_g]

0-60 in about 11 wit a 1.5 dci 65
have ordered a tuning box so it may be better soon

 

[MillerLight]

My first Clio when i was 17 (now 25) 1995 1.2 "oasis"
0-60 17 seconds
105 Top speed (on a non windy day and lots of room)

my 172 ive drive at 125 but didnt want a blow-out so slowed down.

6.9 seconds to 60 (done using my stopwatch and speedo. so not a true reading i spect!)

 

[gaz44]

according to renault its about 11.6 but mine does it a lot quicker.

How? It's a 1.2. A 1.6 is about 9.5 secs

 

[Andy_J]

1.6 16v ... 0-60 est 8-8.5 top speed 130 (speedo)

 

[gaz44]

1.6 16v ... 0-60 est 8-8.5 top speed 130 (speedo)

So not standard then?

 

[k3nnis]

LOLOLOL

I've only got a 1.2,
also, any 0-60 times, i've yet to do one, but give me a week or so.

PMSL, I reckon maybe a week and half!

 

[Graham Gooch]

You can tell schools have broken up for summer holidays.

 

[brisa4984]

Had 180mph out of her and still had some left. 0-60 in 4.6~

 

[bad-news-hughes]

i added a bottle of that nitrox plus 10% bhp poo too a full tank of v power and it went on a reasonably flat road and it hit 150 on the clock and on the flats held it. o.60 my best start was 6.3..only got a decat, devil exhaust and viper induction to help breathing. ive put new 17's on it now and its not quite the same but reduces torque steer loads. all in all a pretty good little motor. it has its uses, i have an evo 6 modified to 375bhp and a porsche GT3 last saturday so its bye bye clio. anyone know what these go for, urated discs, pads, springs, exhaust, filter, brand new wheels n tyres, amp n subs and all speakers changed, tints dun professionally, 78g on the clock, 6 months tax and 12 mot. in silver. w-reg
be greatful for input...thanks

 

[parc77]

6.9secs (Silverstone) 142mph (Autobahn)

 

[Andy_J]

1.6 16v ... 0-60 est 8-8.5 top speed 130 (speedo)

So not standard then?

nope. down a slight hill also..

0-60'd equal with a glanza with some mods.. got humped to 100 tho!!

 

[R3OBC]

i cant understand how you can get 120 on a 1.2 16v clio, i got a mark 2 phase 2 1.2 clio n struggle to get to 100 it takes ages? and is shakin fairly bad

lol its pretty easy really........ just keep your foot down in 5th in a good 1.2 16v lol

 

[chris197sport]

[Dave H]

My 182 Cup still feels tight but should do the book 6.5 secs

My 1.8 diesel Escort van will do 95 witha tail wind and 0-60 sub 40 secs

 

[martinezy]

[martinezy]

1.4 16v mk2 Clio, nippy for a 1.4; beats 1.4 golfs, 1.4 twinport corsas and even an 05 1.4 astra, pretty impressed with it tbh, ive had 124mph down a hill out of it and 117 down the m1 (very slight hill) - good cars!

 

[CupSport]

120 mph outta my clio cup down the m6
living dangerously but driving with care still

140 mph on the clock in a Jaguar v6 x-type

 

[ck786]

tried to time it a few times.............
my 172 does abt 6.5-6.7, 0-60 and i'v been to 151-152. goes straight up to 145 no probs, then takes tat little bit longer to get the extra out of it.

 

[kully]

all the extra add on bits , i've lost top end speed but feels quite nippy through the lower range gears
