Sold it for 3.2k (2 years ago), i live in north wales.Living with housemates rather than travelling to uni is more fun though....got 3 girls in our house...... ;)Anyway think im gonna go for a 172cup in may as its more likely to have a rawer feel to it than a ff172...correct me if my wrong though.
Cheers m8ty, unfortunately that pic doesnt do the car justice to just how mint it was.......it had 43k on the clock when i got.....1 owner from new who was 67!!!

Dunno if this will work, but this was my old black 16v, which had a 2.0 willy engine done by Nick at hill power, cams,decat headwork the lot!!! good fun, had a naples 16v after that. Ive been without a car for 8 months...
If you got rid of those mask things and the sun strip, ya'd have a smart little motor. As for tuning, a good service, ie sparks etc might perk it up abit.
Seeing as the 172cup has no abs, if I was to get vented discs etc. Wouldnt it mean that the car would lock up more quickly under heavy braking? So the question is.....how can you make a cup safer in terms of braking? (excluding the usual answers of slowing down)
People often say the integra is a better car to tune, engine wise? whereas the clio 172 is hard to tune? Right my is question is,does this mean that you get more bhp from mods to a integra in comparsion to the clio? Say, you get a better response in terms of power by adding exhaust/filter...
does anyone know how much they are from renault for these, and do they fit straight onto the 172 ph1? do they need spraying? or are they already colour coded? cheers
