Well that sounds good then, don't need to spend much on it! Never had a clio, had my MK5 Golf Gti and a woman decided to hit me head on, then got a 320d, 525 in pearl white, then a 300bhp MK5 GTi - Then came back to a truck and astra so I really miss my speed but love have economical cars so...
Getting bored recently and I am tempted to get a Clio 172 Cup as a track car, some of them can be picked up quite cheap, ones without tax and test, and ones that have previously been damaged etc. Looking at around £750 and have a few on the table at the moment. N to fully committed to a clio yet...
Top cheers guys! in regards to the arches the front wings are obviously getting replaced too! I'm no clio man, closest I got was owning a Twingo My Twingo) but that didn't last long before I got my BM so I appreciate any help with helping him rep it!
Mate of mine has a Clio and has finally got a 200 front bumper and a 197/200 (I beleive they are the same) rear bumper, question is how will the exhaust work? Can he just buy a back box of a 197/200 or will he need a custom system? Can the bumper still go on with the standard 1.4 exhaust...

Such a better car then the Twingo.

I've just replaced my xenon bulbs everything went smoothly but now I have the problem of they won't fire up... I've replaced the fuses indicated in the fuse box inside the car and then when I try turn Them back on they just pop the fuses it's doin my nut in now any help would be much...
Just got myself a cheap MK1 clio, it's a P reg and looking to maybe teach myself some more mechanics overtime and track it.
There's nothing like jumping in at the deep end so was wanting to do a engine conversion but need info.
Looking at the 2.0 Megane Coupe engine - Seams a popular choice...
Sorry if this is in wrong section, trying to persuade my mate to cut his 172 bumper and hang his exhaust higher in an exhaust cut-out. Just think it looks a little smarter tbh.
So wondering if you can post pictures of your 172 with exhaust cut outs/recess etc?
Appreciated
cheers for that , well the engine seems to run spot on.
i was on a country road yesterday and it came on and i hit a dip in the road and it went off. im assuming its just a faulty senser.. hopefully
hi, i have recently bought a ph2 172. with a slight gearbox wine, every now and again my stop light comes on with my oil light :S.
i have checked the engine oil every day before driving...everythings fine there.
had the gearbox oil topped up and still the same.
just woundered if anyone had an...
As in exactly the same lol? How does the 182 achieve more bhp then? Different ECU map or something?
Just spoke to him he's going to get it stripped down this weekend everything checked and rebuilt then probably just get a second hand engine.
Yeah it gets louder with more revs and seams the engine only cuts out when it has started to get warm?
Spun Shell? Don't know much about engines tbh lol.
He works as a valeter at BMW and had a few guys have a quick look who all said cams, and so did this guy over the phone hence swaying towards them.
I instantly though bottom end had gone again as I heard it before it got rebuilt but it wasn't anywhere as near as loud as this, especially on...
Ok this is on behalf of my mate, he was driving yesterday and coming off a slip road he heard a massive knocking noise and his STOP light came off and car cut out, he tried to start it but it was having none of it so we pushed it back to his and half an hour later it started but cut out again...
Took a few pictures yesterday of how she stands, nothing amazing as i am by far a photographer lol!
