Thanks for the replies lads. Megane is a serious serious car that hussles a lot of stuff it has no place in doing so. It will be miles faster then the Clio will be but it's not cheap to run as track only car and I'll be honest I've had my time on here I've put 26k miles done 25+ track days and 4...
Hi all been lurking for a while but now have a Monaco blue 172 I'm building for track. Some may know one of my current cars which is a red Megane rs250 which has been an insane car for last 2 years but time to try a little revvy Clio.
Need a couple of bit like decent coilovers abd AC delete kit...
Get over to mini torque...I'm coming from a line of cooper s. R56 suffer a lot from coming issues and some people have had a nightmare with mini regarding the issue. Oil catch can seems to help with the issue but if your car has warranty I would contact mini to see if they cover with decoking them.
After detailing my pals trophy on Wednesday he took me out for a spin and I was very very surprised how well these little things go. A cup is deffo top of my list now :) however should I still look at standard 172s in that price range?
Coming from a fast cooper s, coilovers where always a yes and springs where a big no no. Are the cup shocks on the clios that good? I never had any issues with comfort on coilovers for road use but I had full adjustability for track. I'm always very interested in this as I'm after a 172 cup...
Cheers guys, after coming from a few supercharged cooper s my last being 221whp and used in TA I can't wait to get stuck in with the clio. I saw many hauling ass on track days with nothing more then decent tyres. Wouldn't mind itb in the future
This will be my only car but I commute on a train and the mrs has a fully loaded 1series so pretty much answered my own question really and a cup look like the way to go. Will I get a decent one for that money?
Hi peeps been signed up for a while and am currently back on my feet after 3 months out with a broken leg. Looking at a 1*2 for fast road use and track action.
budget for the car will be £2k and not much more. Obviously looking for the best I can get and although the 172 cup would be great if...
I had a W reg black 2.0 zetec esp 3dr which had 70k on the clock and a wee bit of rust, car was absolutely epic. After having plenty of fast cars the focus was still awesome fun to drive with the optional 16s haha it ran for ever with very little love and took speed bumps like no over car. It's...
Good read this, love the oem+ look. Really like the alcantara pillars, makes a huge difference to the interior. Head lining will be epic, loved mine in my cooper S and really lifts the interior. You not thought of doing the dash strip alcantara?
