    Clio 182 Racing Blue Pearl

    Spotted this at Penrith Peugeot last week, looked amazing. Hopefully I'll spot you around town when I'm in my Phase 1!

    After the disaster I experienced over winter where my front suspension disassembled itself, it's now been fitted with a good second-hand set of Bilstein B14's with K-TEC top mounts. Took it for its MOT yesterday and it passed with no bother, aside from some minor defects for the headlights...

    CSF23 Clio Sport Festival 2023

    I might be the most socially awkward person ever so god knows how I'm going to manage to talk to any of you, but I'll definitely be buying a camping ticket and hopefully some track time if the Clio doesn't let me down! Worst comes to worst, you'll all get to see my freshly rebuilt Saab explode...

    The Espace is Now an SUV

    I love the Espace V10 so much, nothing better than shoving a formula 1 engine in a people carrier. Sounds immense on full blast:

    3D printer guru's....What glue for 3D printed OZ F1 centre caps?

    I know this doesn't really help, but there's a guy in the Phase 1 Owners Group on Facebook who sells some 3D printed centre caps that are all one piece, it might be worth messaging him if the ones you have now don't work out. I've got a set and they're great quality.

    Anyone recognise this car?

    This guy might be able to tell you more about it? Seems like it's been well used 😬

    New owner be gentle

    I think Renault recommended 5w-40 for most of the petrol engines on the mk2 clio, so any fully synthetic 5w-40 should be fine for it. If you have the service booklet for it, it should say in there. Something like this should be fine...

    ***How much is it worth?***

    If it's had the belts done in the last 3 years, I'd say it'll be worth minimum £3.75k in standard form, it's rare to see an RB to go for less than that unless it's really ropey. Selling the seats and wheels separately like you suggested is probably your best bet, as they'll be worth more off the...

    He's moved over to the Hagerty channel now, and has started doing videos with them.

    Clio 172 Windscreen Wipers not working

    Mine stopped working randomly on the motorway one night, no prior evidence of it happening. Turned out the nuts under the caps holding the wiper arms on had come loose. Tightened them back up and they've been fine since. If it's not that it could be the motors have packed in.

    172 cup turbo on fb

    This is what someone else who had looked at the car previously said about it. Seems it needs a bit of work doing.

    Is This Really . . . .

    Your Ph.1 is pristine though, I follow you on instagram and it always impresses me when I see it. It's the one's on Facebook that are asking silly money for rotten cars that makes me laugh!

    Is This Really . . . .

    Phase 1 prices are all over the place at the moment, seen really nice ones go for £3k and then others are asking £5k for complete sheds. This one on eBay is up for nearly £11k, which seems nuts to me.

    Took the Clio on a 2700mile roadtrip from the North of England to the French Alps last week! Was a bit nervous before I went but the car didn't skip a beat, was faultless the entire time. Went over more mountain passes than I can count, through endless tunnels and around hairpin bends, all while...

    ***How much is it worth?***

    Honestly you'd probably make more money by selling off all the nice bits on it and returning it to stock. With the belts done you could get around 2.7k to 3k, and then selling off the bucket seats, shifter and other parts would probably make you a decent amount to go along side the car sale. If...

    ***How much is it worth?***

    Just for comparison, I think my Pearl Black Phase 1 is valued around £3.5k, on nearly 140k miles with decent service history but multiple owners. I think around £5k would be a fair price seeing as I've only seen around 2 or 3 oddessy blue phase 1's for sale in the past year, but they might only...

    172 PH1 a few issues.

    Did you take note of which plugs were in them? Should've been NGK PFR6E-10, most people find that running anything other than these can cause problems. As for the running lean, as long as you haven't spent the last 2000 miles banging the limiter I don't think any damage will have been done. If...

    172 PH1 a few issues.

    I'd pull your spark plugs and check to see what condition they're in, they can cause some rough running when they're old and gunked up. Seems someone else had a similar problem in 2020: https://cliosport.net/threads/obd2-codes-p0711-and-b0500.830001/ Might be worth messaging them to see if...

    Same thing happened to me, new sensor did the trick! Just make sure you push it in firmly as my new one liked to pop out slighlty on bumpy roads 😅

    Clio’s & Coffee Manchester 11.09.22

    I went to this last year and it was class. The driveout was great, not too many crazy drivers either. Sadly can't make it this year but I'd fully recommend it.

    Is it weird that I'm jealous of your headlights... they look immaculate! 🤤 If anyone has a set in this condition for sale, please let me know!

    Jon Foz mounts for standard seats?

    Send him a message on facebook, he's very helpful and assited me for setting up the Recaros in my 172. He has various lowering frames, so he might have one that fits the standard seats.

    Dos and don’ts for storage in garage

    I've found that putting at least one of the moisture traps inside the car and one under the bonnet does wonders. The first year I garaged my Clio, I had a bit of mold growing on the seat belts and my plugs were compleltely fouled as moisture had worked its way to them. Second year, I popped...

    Best time to get one is now before they become really rare, and people start cranking the price up.
