My French Pocket Rocket..... well almost

[Barnie15]

Well you wont be interested in a bog standered no modified '06 Clio Authertique,

So until I mod it enough to start a thread with, here a Thought on the other machine

My 2006 Citroen C1

He started like this

added some alloys

Added some nice red interior

De-badged

Wheel arch extentions and red calipers

The reason i bough some spacers - look how far in the wheels sit :O

New DAB Headunit

Added a spoiler for that extra manliness

White Tyre Art

Which brings us to How he looks today

Thanks for looking, any suggestions gladly welcome:race:


I'll post a full mods list at some point there load moer that you cant see that i have done

Cheers

 

[George@RTR_Parts]

A set of decent lowering springs if they do them

 

[JaredHasNoBrain]

Not a fan of it at all, only thing I'd own is the wheels. Don't get why you put the Renault sport stickers on the side and what apears to be tip ex on the wheels.
All my opinion.

 

[Dave..]

A V8 in the back and rear wheel drive could look good.

 

[.GAZ.]

Oh.

 

[riz]

The metal GB sticker was one too far...

​

 

[domjolly]

I like it other than the graphics down the side..... It's screaming for it to be slammed on its arse though. Coilovers..... Wound all tge way down with some camber thrown in for fun as well

 

[Cub.]

Paint the roof yellow, and you're nearly there;

Sorry OP, joking aside, I'd lose the stickers and the spoiler and lower it on Coilovers and I think it will look much much better.

 

[Sir_Dave]

Personally, i think some cars look better standard. Im 31 though, so feel free to ignore me.

 

[Herr Flick]

f**king LOL! You got bored on eBay one night Didnt you?

 

[STICKER TWONK]

This was never gonna go down well on here, try posting on the C1 owners club. Tip ex, graphics, spoiler, wheel arch extensions, all look silly to me, but I am old so probably not down with the kids... innit.

 

[JoedotwasT5phy]

Whats the retail on one of those?

 

[Toby]

Whats the retail on one of those?

8k on the road.

 

[Clart]

You can't polish a turd....but you can roll it in glitter.

 

[JoedotwasT5phy]

More than you can afford pal

Thats what i thought you said...

 

[ThomasBrentnall]

Renault sport sticker on a Peugeot. Am I missing something here?

 

[Toby]

Thats what i thought you said...

​oh you

 

[Eliganza]

Wow.

 

[decco]

Renault sport sticker on a Peugeot. Am I missing something here?

Citroen badges on a peugeot !!

 

[STICKER TWONK]

Renault sport sticker on a Peugeot. Am I missing something here?

Yes, its a Citroen, still makes no sense.

 

[Rob]

I quite like it, it's a funny little car, why not have a little fun?

 

[Tunst]

My mrs has a little 107 I love it, handles quite well!

 

[STICKER TWONK]

Noddy called, wants his car back.

 

[Dave..]

They sound a lot better than most 4 pots to be fair.

Just like a little half V6. I had one as a hire car for a bit, sounded good thrashing the tits off it.

 

[ThomasBrentnall]

Citroen badges on a peugeot !!

Same company

 

[MonacoDan]

Cracking little cars, get rid of stickers + lows would look great.

 

[Barnie15]

The graphics are coming off when I can get round to it, they seemed like a good idea at the time....

Most things on this are straight out the Accessories brochure.... so yeah not random tat from ebay....

spoiler is staying on.... just fitted it a few weeks ago.....

It will be lowered at some point but just on springs, coilovers are around £400-600

Oh yeah I won the C1 Owners Club car of the season award..... so all in all, Your argument is invalid .... Have nice day!!!

 

[Barnie15]

[Sargara]

Added a spoiler for that extra manliness

Never heard that in reference to a C1 before!

Alloys and spacers are a nice improvement but you need to sort the arch gap now.

 

[Barnie15]

Never heard that in reference to a C1 before!

It about as manly as you can get really now..... which still isnt very many

But yes, Lowering spings are on my to do list, but Hopefully very soon though

How many other entrees were there?

 

[Barnie15]

If you have all these negative vibes, you can kindly shove them up your arse... and avoid commenting

Have a look, dont like it, move on the the next thread

I mean there is banter then there is just being a dick head!

I just thought it would be a good idea to share with other car with like minded petrol heads ..... not just to take cheap digs at things, without having ans substance behind your comments.... But fine what ever

I'll just stick to discussing the Clio from now on shall I

you did ask for suggestions, not everything will always be postive

 

[Dave..]

You've actually ignored the positive comments and only focused on the negatives. Maybe if you can't handle criticism, the Internet is not for you?

 

[decco]

Same company

do you mean like the skoda Veyron then ?

 

[Wick]

"That looks awesome", said no one ever.

I like the wheel and c1's in general as city cars.

 

[ch!ppen]

You posted pictures of a modified C1 and expected positive comments? A standard one wouldn't get positive comments but a modified one is even less likely to.

Fair enough, they're decent-ish as cheap runabouts... But you can't expect everyone to like it. A lot of people speak their mind on the internet, you're bound to get some negatives. Chill!

 

[Barnie15]

you did ask for suggestions, not everything will always be postive

Yes that is very true.

But when it come to nitpicking over small things by pedantic people it is just annoying

There is a difference between negitve comments and constructive criticism

But Yes, thanks for the comments guys

 

[MarkCup]

You publicly posted pictures and invited comments on a discussion forum.

It's not a discussion if everyone says the same thing...and as said above, maybe you shouldn't post pictures if you're not prepared to accept that (shock horror!!!) some people won't like exactly the same things as you.

Well done with the 'shove them up your arse' comment btw, that was great.

 

[Coby.]

50% of what you've done is ok.

You've got to accept that the C1 forum is likely to mainly be made up of 17-19 year olds with their first cars who will love what you've done, This forum ranges from very young Niall97 to very old Tony so will like different things completely.

I had Lexus lights and a Peco Big Bore 4 on my 1.2 Corsa when I was 17.
