New car nxt Dunno wot to have want a diesel but looking at a grande punto 1.9 multijet sporting yes i know its a fiat but the new clio look crap specialy the middle of the range models i want my clio back

 

[Laura]

having seen some of the things they are repairing these days i wouldnt write it off just yet... probably tho

not nice tho, hope your ok

 

[JD]

Buy another? Will that be a write off?

 

[Sargara]

Id say its a write off. The back wheels arent sitting parallel so theres not just cosmetic problems.

The ClioGT has a diesel edition. It looks good if you ask me!

 

[Mikeclio89]

its a write off got 4k for it it was going to cost 3959 quid to repair and new clio gt is far to exspensive for me

 

[Cliotoby]

4k that pretty good, what you got to spend in total ? The multijets look failry good from the exterior actually, interiors are by far the most disgusting thing ive ever sat in mind.

[Cliotoby]

[Mikeclio89]

[Cliotoby]

[Scrooge]

Diesels are the best

 

[SC03OTT]

How come there are two different exhausts in the pics? Did you remove the one from the first and refit the original?

 

[iimushroomzii]

^^^ Naughty boy!

 

[Andyman]

Scratch your door these days and its written off.

 

[ramsey374]

[Beef-Mc]

Good price that actually.

 

[TimR26]

Good payout

 

[DannoTheGreat]

nasty!

 

[James172Cup]

Rear lights gone too? Undeclared mods?

 

[jordan172]

[Brett]

Grande Punto's will break. Quickly.

 

[Mikeclio89]

Lol 2 year on my grande punto gearbox is on its way out so a clio 197 why not

 

[Lal B3N]

Im just getting rid of my 1.9 grande punto.

They might make 196bhp but it will have no more torque than one with 170bhp. Most torque they seem to make is 330ft lbs.

Mine is running 177hp and 330ft-lbs. Shredded a gearbox in under 42k and the turbo seized at 45k. They can survive being remapped but if you drive them remotely hard then thats when they start wrecking things. Parts are not cheap for them either.

Mine was mapped by Sanspeed tuning, holds power 22psi from 1500 revs to almost 5250. Lovely looking car but reliability for hooning about it is crap.

 

[Brett]

330 lbft is a lot of torque. Not surprised the gearboxes are going on them.

Nice looking cars but the Clio 197 will be miles better. Probably slower straight line mind.

 

[Tiababy]

I've seen a diesel mk3 Clio pre facelift. 175bhp and it had all the kit of a 197 (arches/spoiler/diffuser/exhaust) not sure if it was a one off but looked identical to a 197 and wouldn't have put it for a diesal if it weren't for the sales blurb.
wilsons in Epsom had one a year ago when I went to pick up my 197.

My punto was the 130bhp but i loved the way it shifted from 70-128 im not exspecting the same from a 197 tho i will miss that but oh well

If you use the gearbox the 197 will go from 70-128 quicker im sure. but if you just plant your foot in 5th rather than change to an appropriate gear it probably wont.

BHP is what matters for acceleration not torque really, which is the opposite to what most people think, but is true when based on the assumption that the driver has access to and knows how to use a gearbox.

If you use a 197 gearbox they're likely to break though.
