I've seen this car quite a few times now too, still no sign of them being on here, seems alot of the Renault Sport Clio drivers in basingstoke arent on CS!
had a mk1 RSi, loved it to bits, but sold it and bought a Trophy, my mate has it now, still trying to get him to sign up to here, its a cracking little car!
Got excited and thought it was gonna be me there as been to hook twice already this week, but alas no!
I think i've seen the 200 youre on about round there before though!
thats the shift light! telling you the rev limiters about to kick in and its time to shift up, kicks in at different revs depending on the temperature of the engine, nothing to worry about at all!
as for the "black trim" get yourself some carplan "black trim wax" its well cheap and leaves black trim looking black, and covers up any wax/polish you may have got on there when doing the rest of the car, or any other black wax for trim, the sprays are useless and leave a nasty residue everywhere!
nope no this year!!! Fiddling with the MK2 escort this morning.
Then me and the missus gotta go shopping to get a few bits ready for holidays as we're off in a couple of days! :D
nice! do love a blue clio! mines a 182 Trophy so its red and has TROPHY stickers plastered all over it! Need to get some kind of local meet arranged, theres not been one for a few months, be good to get everyone from the area together!
DO IT! What one is it? 2dr? 4dr? engine? Doesn't matter if its gold theyre cool as fook whatever they look like, even with an open diff you can get one proper sideways, you can always respray it yourself badly and it will still look cool, theres loads of ratty ones in the oldskoolford.co.uk...
Thanks chaps glad you like it! Hopefully ignition parts should be here around november/december time, its not been running for a while now but the parts were a fortune and having a Trophy doesnt really help much.....anyway theyre super cheap now so i'll get them on backorder ( i think its a 2 -...
Its a 1760 xflow, lightened and balanced bottom end an flywheel, lairy Kent cam,huuuuuuuge valves, twin 40 dcoe Weber's and electronic ignition, uprated fuel pump etc, honestly way way too many bits to list!!
But the main thing is the quaife LSD hiding in the rear axle!!
wasnt when i bought it! had to replace both front wings, front panel, slam panel, bonnet, boot lid, both the front doors and 1 rear door, 1 rear quarter and the drivers floor....
so after all that an a spraying it now looks like that, although its currently suffering from a bad case of...
this is mint! a mate of mine built his own replica of one of these, ill see if i can dig some pictures out, its got a cossie turbo under the bonnet rather than a n/a engine, makes my 1760 x-flow'd mk2 look like a milkfloat on the drag strip, although mine has achieved some serious lows compared...
saw a blue 182 leaving tescos today, pretty sure it had a cliosport sticker in the back window, guy driving looked like he was attempting to send a text whilst driving it
Just saw a proper shiney black 182 cruising past BCOT in basingstoke this afternoon, took a left just after the houses opposite the college. Sounded like a non-standard exhaust.
Anyone on here??
ive got the supersports with no centre silencer, but still got the cat on, had a decat on the old clio and got really bored of swapping them over for MOT's so i dont think i'll bother decatting the Trophy, sounds spot on when you plant your foot but nice and quiet on the motorways.
