A quick question, i thought i'd add in here rather than a new post. How strong are the 1*2 engines? What kind of power can you take them up to before things start to go?

Hi Dan, I have my focus and BMW through you! :) I think i'm going to avoid kit cars, as soon as it rains i'll lose interest!

Kids AND shopping? How big are these clios!?

Haha probably be quicker if I left my hairdressing supplies at home though...:tongueclosed:

I believe this is my old car :hearteyes: hope she's still going well!

Thanks all, i think it's going to be a 182 and go from there! Thanks for all the help

Any links or pics please mate? Looks like it would be good but i'd like to do some of the work myself lol I just missed a blue one on eBay, had ktec suspension, scorpion exhaust decent discs for £2k but deposit taken now. Is it worth trying to do too much to them engine wise? A few spares...

Hi all, I've been looking for a while to start doing some track days and think i'm ready to get started, I'm not brave enough to take my 6 month old focus st round so looking for a more dedicated vehicle. I know the Clio platform has great reviews regarding track days but wanted to talk to some...

Cheers guys, at the end of the day I only put down 100 and it was a risk so I'll walk away if it's.not right and if I lose it I lose it. No real harm done. But from.what everyone says I think it sounds like it was pre registered and it hasn't been thrashed still on the original tyres and the...

d4vy that might be spot on, the guy is supposedly an old fella who just pottered around in it! How can I check who had it first? Should say on the V5 to the right correct? Also what does pre-registered mean?

I raised the issue about the tyres and brakes and he is supposed to be getting his mechanic to look at it before I go in wednesday. He however told me there was only one previous owner. Thats a condition I am not happy with as there is actually 2. It doesn't matter what I am not happy with, it...

The reason I have put a deposit down is because I have to get a day off work to be able to look at it properly, if I book the day off and the car is gone I have wasted one of my very few days off. I explained that when I did it and they were fine with it. Thanks but I don't play with toys :)

Usually it wouldn't, but after going through two owners and the front tyres being bald can only mean two things, it's on the original front tyres (lack of maintenance by both owners) or its had its clutch abused, if it was all 4 it would be a bit more understandable but just the front...? The...

Hi Chris, I am checking all the paperwork on wednesday and making sure it all matches up. I think they will give me a 3 moth warranty that I'll probably extend by atleast a year. I don't mind a car being driven hard just not abused too much and looked after! :)

How is it a waste of anyones time!? If you didn't want to comment on it then don't, there you go, your time is saved. The reason I am put off is because of some of the comments on this thread and I don't care if you were the salesman, a refundable deposit is exactly that. Refundable. I am not...
