performance

is it actually worth going all out on a 1.4 16valve clio, with the manifold and straight through exhaust, getting it chipped.

i like my wee clio, but soon when insurance goes down i am going to want something faster

i have been down this route with previous cars the money spent to get a few extra hp is not worth i spend the money on better brakes and suspension if anything to improve the handling and make the car more usable

save the money mate, wait until you can afford something faster

Nope then again a 2.0 ins't worth it.

stop being so pessimistic edde lol. you only live once, so do what you want with your money as you cant take it with you - but on a 1.4 id have coils and nice wheels with an exhaust as they arent too bad as standard in terms of performance.

Save the money on the 1.4, you will probably look back and regret wasting the cash.

Edde, build a kit car and wack a V12 in it. Ok a Cobra is probably a bad example but something like a caterham. Thats my dream when the vw beetle project is finished.

Kit car is one idea a bit ligther than that though thinking more go cart sized.

Never realy been into the big CC lark or the retro looks.
