Re: Clio Bargins.
£12 membership to CS.
* Made me aware of skoda splitter - saved ~£100 over renault one
* Bumper removal guide - saved probably an hour (I despise all things trim/clip/plastic related)
* Link to recommended Xenon bulbs for £17 - saved god knows how much over OEM
* Resource for all the common problems (personally I had exhaust, heat shield, cat-mani gasket & headlight washer) - saved an infinite amount of time
* Learned a HELL of a lot about Clios which, even if I never use that knowledge, makes me much more condifent/knowledgable when I buy my next one

Re: Clio Bargins.
Danny @ 519 being so close! Saved me and the mrs loads in fuel as we don't have to travel. A very intelligent chap with infinite knowledge when it comes to these slightly complex engines. Fairly priced and uses high quality/oem parts. You need this kind of backup when you purchase a French hot hatch!

Well my 182 FF cost me £1,850 so not a bad start... haven't done anything to it yet but I'm a bargain hunter so will hopefully get some posted up in the near future!

Re: Clio Bargins.
i never get a clio bargain! always been depreciating piles of shite. actually my first 1.2 16v dynamique i got in 05 was free i suppose that was ok. i thought £14,700 was ok for my brand new 200 FF with recaros and cup pack too! the rest were money pits

Re: Clio Bargins.
Crikey, how did you manage that? Nice one.
I've never had anything at a good price.
When I sold my old 1.2 i only lost 150 over the 2 years I owned it, bought it for 1000 and sold it for 850.

My Monaco.
6 months of free motoring (bar fuel!) and some pocket money once all the mods were sold.
Still hated the thing though.

lol, i could be here all day ...
Best one is probably buying a cheapo ITB'd clio, then breaking it, which subsequently payed for the Trophy.

Re: Clio Bargins.
Not strictly a mod but I got a pack of mint imperials for 39p in morissons for my clio yesterday?
but jokes aside, I got a full service and cambelt change for £30 inc labour which I didn't think was too shabby and seeing as i've owned the car under a week I haven't bought anything else for it yet haha.

I also agree with the membership to this site, saved me no end on advice and parts!
My spare engine also has to be a winner, got it for £100 as I work for the place and I'm a hard grafter!
