Nice sales pitch Chris ;)
I have five 16" anthracite Supers already of which a set are fitted to the white track Clio. As the Cup is on 16s i was thinking it might look cool on the OZs, more track focused looking
Toying with the idea of putting 16" OZ Supers on the 172 Cup so i was wondering if there are any pics about. I've tried the search and up to now can't find any, i've found a couple of threads but the pics are missing (no doubt someone will post within 30 minutes!)
Also, quite liking the OE...
Been reading this from the start, cannot believe it's only been going on for 2 months, spot on! Absolutely love the E30 shape, what with that kind of engine fitted i bet it's going to sound awesome and go flippin quick!!
Top work, a lot of respect to you :cool:
Not meaning to come across as stupid as this is my first time of having a Clio with xenon bulbs, but are the bulbs in the link above a direct fitment to OE Renault xenon headlamps? My drivers side bulb has stopped working, it's either a new bulb, ballast or ignitor. If it's a bulb that needs...
I guess i'll just have to check it regularly, get some heat in it with the fan heater. Mould is my main concern, it's not going to be used for months..
Ok, so the white Clio has taken a step back. It's not been driven for over 3 weeks now as i'm using the Clio 172 Cup, the problem i'm having is condensation and moisture inside the car. The weekend just gone i had to use the chamois leather on the inside of the roof as it was saturated, there's...
The missus has a 1.4 16V 54 plate Dynamique, i borrow it every now and then and it's spot on.
Heated wing wirrors
Xenon headlights
Auto wipers and headlights
Previous owner fitted an RS upper grill, RS gearknob insert and RS dash strips. A tidy car and nice to drive, apart from servicing there...
I bought a 2nd hand jack suposedly from a Clio 182 to take the place of my rubbish plastic 172 jack. It had a (IIRC) something like a 20mm nut on the end. The brace obviously fits over the nut to wind the jack up and down.
Is it a 182 jack?
The same thing happened to my jack on the 172.
This might be better? Metal parts opposed to nasty plastic

There must be more to it than just walking through the Renault dealer door, signing on the dotted line, then paying yer £199 a month....
I went into Renault 3 years ago and thought i'd treat myself to a new 197 after splitting up with the missus.
To get that £199 a month it had to be a new...
Silver phs1 lowered on 2118s looks spot on, phs2 dash IMO is so much better looking.
Overall, very tidy looking 172. I wouldn't mind going back on 2118s on my phs1
I'm running FK Konigsports, i can't remember how 'soft/stiff' the dampers are dialled in at but after a tweek or 2 i left it. Even half a turn made a difference, what felt right after the last tweek was then left. I don't think i could get into the complexities of constantly tweeking for a...
I'm spending my money on new genuine Renault parts to tidy up my Cup interior. Nothing worse than gash, scratched, sticky door pulls. Yellow/green, mouldy looking rear number plate lights. Torn and worn gearknobs, wipers blades well past their use by date! Oh and a fresh brand new parcel shelf...
Ok, so i've owned the 172 Cup for nearly a week now and already been into my local Renault main dealer a couple of time purchasing OE parts for it.
One thing i need to confirm 100% before ordering a new gearknob is the part number. Has anyone bought a new Cup 172 gearknob from Renault?? What i...
Natural progression i feel, i got into Clio 172 ownership over 3 years ago with an Odyssey Blue phase 1 and felt lucky at the time to own it. Phase ones are a marmite look, as much as i like them i actually prefer the Mk2 Phs2 so it made sense to buy the Cup.
I know it doesn't have the half...
The brakes are MUCH better on the white Clio, less weight to stop and with the DS2500 pads the more you lean on them the better they feel. Completely different, in the white Clio it's noisy, i think the Polyflex bushes and solid top mounts pass the vibration through the shell, harsh road noise...
