Boys and Girls, This is getting really sad. Its amazing that you all think yourselves so superior to anyone who buys Max Power that you give the impression that Clios are soooo above being related to that Magazine, that seeing a Clio featured in Max Power is a damnation from hell. Please...

Seeing as my brother is Features Editor of Max Power, I was going to help ClioSport out by getting him to include the club with some sort of article/spread, but seeing the responses of the masses "Im too cool and mature to be associated with Max Power", I will not bother and will make sure he...

The only way to get 200 bhp down in the Clio chassis on UK roads will be to fit an ATB diff from Quaife.. in my opinion of course. 172CUP

Sorry mate, not meaning to be patronising at all, but what I am really trying to say is that give the car a chance,,, it is meant to drive like that and it is all the better for it in my opinion. If you can master this car, then youll be able to drive most cars in the world!!! My new 911 is a...

I had a CUP for a year and absolutely loved the car!!! My main point to you is that the steering feel, feedback and execution of the steering under acceleration and braking is totally consistent with my experience of the CUP and it is how the car should perform. It is an out and out drivers...

I am selling my CUP as I have too many cars at the moment. I have 5 including the CUP, Impreza, Elise, Forester S/TB and Pug Rally car. I really love the CUP, this shows by the mods I have put on it or invested in it, so much so that I have only done about 200 miles this whole year in the...

996 C2 for my sins!!!! Cant afford a GT3 with the options I want!!

Guys, I am selling my CUP as I have too many cars at the moment (currently 5 including the rally car) and am selling the Impreza and CUP to make way for one "dream" car. So if anyones interested in a mint CUP (no scratches/marks etc), regd 30th Sep 2002, 12,800 miles on it with K-Tec...

Might go this year as my brother in law is Features Ed @ Max Power and orgainises Max live himself 172CUP

Guys, I am still convinced that my CUP is slower, like a tw*t, I put 205/40/17 and miscalculated. This weekend I am doing testing on the 17"s then the 16"s for 0 - 60, 0 - 100, 30 - 70 and 80 - 100 and I will post results. Now the % difference is only 2% and that should be within the...

12K service???? My dealer confirmed 18K 1st service, twice!!! Which is correct??? 172CUP

Sorry it was a typo!!!. I Meant 195! But no one does a 205/35/17. To get to 35, I they will be 225/35/17. Any ideas anyone or the 17" White Turinis with SO3"s are toast!!!! 172CUP

Guys et gals, Yep you are right!! When I put on 205 40 R17"s on the CUP, I miscalculated and knackered the gearing!!! Sooooo, I need a 194 40 R17 for the CUP to keep the gearing the same. Someone on here must have gone up to that size to keep the gearing the same. My local tyre man says all...

take out the soundproofing. My Pug rally car can be pushed around with 1 hand!!!!
