New Clio 172 or 182 Owner

Hi,

Introducing myself as a wannabe Clio owner so any good examples out there that might be known of do let me know!

My aim is to find a non rusty, not stripped out, standard (ish) car with subtle upgrades and not mega miles.

Keen to learn more on things like coilovers, which ones are considered compliant enough for road use and the odd track day or does standard suspension refreshed work just fine for that type of use.

Cheers!

Rich

Pics of Integrale required.
Seems harder to find a decent car than a few years ago, seems to be less coming up for sale from what I've seen, but don't be too put off by the mileage, mine was on over 150k and it was a great car, used it as my daily for a good few years. I'd rather one that was driven regularly and maintained well, good history being the key IMO, even better if you can buy one from someone on here.
Some cars seem to have rusted away arches at 70k, some are just surface at double that, mine just needed some surface rust treating in the inner wings to stop it getting any worse.

It's an Evo I, Winner Red is the colour, not a special edition but perhaps a special order colour I'm not sure, not so many Winner Reds around.

Very nice indeed, when did you own it? It was a fantastic time back in the day when I lived in the Peak District, regular Grale meets, enjoying them as they're meant to be enjoyed.

That was when I was young, car was a 93 and I bought it in 97. I had Walkers tune it so it had 238bhp at the wheels. Doing a tank of 4* a week Just to work and back (8 miles 😂) so I don't want to imagine how expensive one is to run these days.
@MrBlonde is toying with selling his 182.

Is your car track spec with roll cage? I think I'm set on getting a road car without cage for now though I will be tempted to try out the car at a little sprint track near me. That's when upgraditis kicks in tho 🤣
