Re: Finally getting a Clio Sport nice motor mate - by far THE BEST colour 172 ever. i had an 03 one, regretted selling it for years after....

Bit off topic, but have you seen the Andy Forest Subaru he uses for his quarter miles? I believe that's 'road legal' too! I would have posted a link but I can never seem to manage on iPad. Plenty on YouTube - that thing is RAPID!

same here, i was only getting air on the speed bumps outside my local primary school in a saxo vts and the copper just pulled me for nothing

very nice looking motor, looks a bit like PW in the first few pics?

heard lots of good things about them, so went and tried a set on in richer sounds. the sound was good but there was too much leakage for me to use on plane/train all the time. cant remember the model number of the ones i tried - really 'retro' looking ones, are these the ones you have roy? how...

still love V's.... wish i'd owned one!!

i got a little handheld steam cleaner like this one mate - http://www.thanedirect.co.uk/products/housewares/tobi-steamer/tobi.php, dunno how good it is though. i'm at work til friday 19th but your welcome to come get it anytime after then (billingham)

WHACK a turbo in for 190+ hahahaha

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news Don't like the look at all - from front, side or back. As someone said earlier, surely it HAS to look better in any other colour than that godforsaken pissy yellow. The reason I just bought a 200 was to stay away from the 1.6T engine this is gonna have. I will...

I prefer the way it drives, as in I prefer a normally aspirated engine. Until I get to really push it, I can't say if its definitely a better drive. I certainly prefer the look of it, and I don't miss that stupid boeing 747 hand brake one bit!

I wouldn't have been able to do it years ago, but I'm a gentleman of advancing years now so it doesn't bother me too much!! I left the R26 over in a garage in Tenerife for 6 months, that did give me itchy feet a bit!! I'm on a rig now but normally work on ships.

chappers, i obv know what the term 'rose tinted specs' means, but can you explain how its apt here?

tommo - yes, i much prefer it to the r26. i sold the r26 as i am too old to drive a car with silly f**king stickers all over it now. obviously there are a few things i liked more on r26, as i mentioned in my post. i think the clio is a much nicer looking/sounding car, and hopefully i'll enjoy...

i have only done 100 miles in the clio, so probably my opinion is a bit premature. i just thought the side bolsters felt a little flimsy (and massive!) compared to the megane ones, and i much prefered the leather. that been said, the clio seat is awesome when your sat in it, totally supportive...

FFS the owner of the car is simply asking (and rightfully so) for you to take his number plate off. it's just a matter of common courtesy/manners/respect.... you know, like the guys selling theres who blot the number plate out?? i lived in tenerife for 2 years and took my R26 out there. in the...

there's no edit option for my first post so i can't change it. sorry to all you english language professors. when i typed it out on my ipad, i just presumed the punctuation would suffice. Do we need correct usage of upper case too?

thanks for the replies lads... well, some of them. andy - i havent been in it long but i think you might be right, i wasnt looking for them, but i didnt see any sensors on the pillars like the megane had. cheers! adam - no mate, thats not it, the roller just does whatever turning the nob on the...

24jseymour - yes, thats what it does when you double press the lock, it deadlocks it, but on the megane it would also close the windows if you had left any down. i just presumed it would do it on the clio d6n - thanks for your constructive comment. awesome.

Just picked up my Clio from Leeds Evans Halshaw the day before yesterday. First impressions - it's obv not as fast as the R26, I knew that was the case, but I think I prefer the delivery of the NA engine. the roads were soaking when I got it so not had chance to take it up the country lanes and...

Really like the wheels on the Citroen. Marmite though I imagine!

Nice car... Whoever owns it...

thanks for all the replies chaps. i went for an ex-demo GW FF 200 with cup chassis and recaros. nov 11 car with 7400 on the clock. 13.6k sound about right? it doesnt have the black wheels but i can live without that i think to save just under 4 grand! best price i could find was 17500 when i...

hi, are the speedlines a standard upgrade when ordering mate?

hi, i am trying to order to a FF clio with cup chassis AND satin black alloys. dealer says i cant have the alloys with the cup chassis as it includes 17" anthracite wheels... is he talking rubbish??? i think he is!!! can anyone tell me if this is definately possible?? cheers in advance...

what about getting a HU from china or the states, wont the FM/RDS work properly??? anyone up on this??

thanks chaps, will try all the above out!!!

cheers mate, will give it a look. anymore anyone?

as title, can any of you guys recommend me a good site? i want to buy alpine HU/bluetooth equipment, speakers, amp etc etc. i would prefer to buy this stuff from the guys where i am gonna take car for fit (carsound m`bro) but i just want to know how much they SHOULD be charging me for the...

i have seen a white and a black one in the flesh and thought they both look mint!!!
