Trackday derv??

I know a certain someone selling a black ph1 lol. I don't think there is enough potential in the clio diesel to make it worth while.

I agree with this tbh, i think you're asking too much of a diesel where ultimatley you will be dissapointed.

I reckon you should just buy somthing for a grand, namely a VTS/GTi and go that route..?

 

[marinemackay2003]

would be a good project to play around with

but might not work out all that cheap

but ....do it

 

[Englebert]

Would be boring not being able to rev a car on track. Also, they spill diesel everywhere and sound s**t. Shouldn't be allowed on circuits!

I was thinking a 172 TBH but needed the economy

Saw one on the bay with no MOT for 900 a ph one!

 

[Fred@BTM]

a 172 does over 40mpg on the motorway son!

 

[Scrooge]

people track savo vtr's and ZS fiestas so a dci 80 or 100 re mapped played with will be ample fun on and off the track IMO. just spend the money in the right places suspension and brakes. When i stripped my dci out the back end was very lively, lots of fun!

Aye, I suppose! Once mines shifted its decison time

 

[Fred@BTM]

you can build a missile for next to nothing, i think i've shown you that already

 

[Scrooge]

£35 a year road tax, over 60MPG all day long. Not as noisy as people make out, if you strip it out the road noise will drown the engine noise out anyway. Decent of coilovers, good brakes and a remap will set you up nicely. If you get bored play with the engine and clutch more.

 

[Fred@BTM]

or buy a skoda VRS and map it

My ph1 will do mid 40's on the motorway driven sensibly.

Not as bad as you would think.

I'd rather have a 172 than dci. Can get a 172 a lot cheaper than a dci too. dci 100's don't go for less than £3500 for one in average condition.

Diesels as trackcars don't work, it will feel rubbish even if it's just from an aural and driver's perspective rather than actual performance. Might feel fantastic on the road, but on track you want revs!

Indeed you have my son

 

[iimushroomzii]

I'd love for you to do it mate, might shut a few people up on here TBH.

Which mate? The derv?

 

[Martin]

seriously no... would be a waste of time and money, buy a cheap track car! On some trackdays having such a slow car will make you a rolling road block!

 

[Hutchie]

2.0 dci out of the laguna has loads of poke
in a clio should be a rocket.
but its a faff on
