Fiesta vs Clio

[Jonff]

lol the best way to buy... but i like the fun of modding myself to exactly how i want it, thats why i bought mine standard

The one and only modded car I've bought.

Yeah I know what you mean, can't beat the satisfaction of modding your own car and making it mint.

I like Jonff.
Did you buy it with the FRP engine in it then?

how much did it set you back?

 

[colossuss]

If you pause just as the cars pass you can see its not an RS, it doesnt have the RS wings or side skirts

Yeah I bought it with the engine already fitted.

I paid £4,500 for it, sounds expensive that but it was the going rate at the time (about 3 years ago I think). It had a fair bit done to it as well.

f**k me 11 pages of crap. haha i asked a pretty simple question imo. thanks to people that were helpful.
i think ill be buying a 1*2 in the next few weeks, will try get a thread up when i do.

Oh yes the joy's of revving the t1t's out of two crap cars to see who has the biggest pen*s..

I so wish i was 17 again to experience this fab phenomina of battling 2 epic roller skates up a back street and then pulling out my co*k and slapping one off to the excitement

 

[S&K]

That isnt any sort of fast Clio, the Fiesta pulls ahead in 1st and the Clio hits the limiter, the clio should have been ahead despite the crap start and even if it wasnt it should have passed the Fiesta in that short time. Either that or the few Fiesta ST150's that I have had a go at were just very poorly driven ?

** Edit ** Didnt read all of this thread, jumped straight in after the first page so dont start flaming me

Gotta love the above attitude that is oh so frequent on here theses days!

Why own a 197 if its 'crap' which it is if the 1*2 is......

 

[Rossy197]

^^ yep a fiesta and a campus is way different to a 1*2 / 197 fella.

BTW i wasn't being funny it was meant as sarcasim in the fact that people actually get hard over racing up a back street

 

[JayR]

Ahh my bad as i thought we were going with the idea that it was an heavily modified Fiesta against an RS!

[Rossy197]

I recently made the change from the ZS to the 182, not a frp'd ZS mind and tbh handling feels better on the ZS. They also feel faster than they are I think. As I drive my old one now and then and think this is nippy look at the speedo and its not moving half as fast lol.

Anyone who looks out a $hitty video of two cars dragging on an industrial estate and thinks the one he was after was not fast enough, needs to have a serious word with themselves!

This video shows a bunch of chavs trying to look cool in their piece of s**t cars - nothing more. Numpty!

 

[treemanx]

OK little harsh? Paget is hardly making a buying decision from chav racing videos which I agree is stupid. He is looking to get a clio 182 as he see's this an upgrade from his current car. He happend to come across a video where it appeared this "upgrade" would be no better than the car he currently has so questioned it. Well he's been told enough times the video is tosh and its not a RS clio already hasn't he?

A bit of common sense should have been applied.

Even if it was a Clio Sport and it got hammered by the Fiesta, it still means nothing. Clearly, he had doubts about buying the Clio due to this video? Amazing!
