Picked this up last night. Many thanks to @KrisRS182, its a gem to drive and il be sad to have to make changes to suit my daily driver requirements.
Might try to keep this more updated than last project diary.

Awesome They missed a trick not making the 172/182 in white.

Looks great in white and I'm not a massive fan of white cars, is it painted or wrapped?

Painted by Kris. He is in trade and did a great job. It was at CSF with me and @RMDavis and got picked up in the magazine article.. :smile:
Its actually clio number 7 as I forgot the 197 i still have and my valver from yrs ago. My drive now has 561 renaultsport points on it now.

It looks more sporty/modern in white, it looks great.

As I said on Facebook, I'm glad it's still in the family!

Ditching the straps/bumper bands/black indicators/seats etc?

Nice choice

Black indicators already swaped for white. Not ditching bumper bands as holes drilled, but i am considering swapping for silver (cant get white anywhere). Also consider a blue trim theme as i have sprayshack bullets and dash trims in arctic. But will have a try out of those. Back seats are in for daily driver/ kids, and Front seats are staying for now but do have a bucket but need to weigh up inconvenience of getting kids out one side and look of only one bucket. Straps are good to stay. Might just freshen with new ones.

That looks so smart in white and with those wheels too, as above, should have been a factory colour!

White was still out of fashion in early naughties - it was still suffering from the hang-ups of XR3i's and Golf GTis.
Its wasnt until later that decade it came back in. I hit the upward curve with this in 2009. :smile:

C30 had to go due to loss of licence in 2011. After that i'd changed jobs, from a 100+mile a day job to a 15mile a day.... so didn't need 'drive' economy anymore. Clio addiction came shortly after.
