Hi all.
A bit lengthy this with lots of details but wanted to get as much information down as possible.
Looking for some advice on what to keep / remove / sell separately plus guidance regarding pricing of this car which I'm potentially selling for track only use (explained later).
I've sold...
Stumbled across this thread on the weekly email that comes out so I though I would input.
I bought my Trophy back in 2014 at the bottom of the market for £3300 as an investment.
That investment has paid off as its worth 3 times that now in it's current condition and just 61000 on the clock...
So we will be seeing you over at the clio trophy forum soon. :drunk:
You still got a bargain if you paid the buy it now price he had it up for.
Anything else need doing to return to standard or just a set of recaros ?
Future classic.
Buy an good one now if you have the money sat in the bank.
Will make more over the next 10 years than you will get back on your savings that's for sure.
Plus you will have more fun
:drunk:
Well 10 years after I purchased my first clio 182 I am back. Picked up Trophy 263 in great nick for a bargain
Price :rasp:
Running as a second car only for the summer months and will be keeping this future classic in tip top condition.
Looking forward to getting it on the track in the summer ;)
thanks guys
so im not alone then :-(
anybody actualy found out what it is yet?
not good is it?
they tightened all the bolts of steering/suspension etc.
but not fixed it
going to have to video it and take it down to show them
hi guys
anyone else had problem with thier clio banging/clunking when cold whilst you rock the wheel back and forward when stationary?
my 182 has started doing this.
only does it when cold for about 10 seconds.
took it into renault but they couldnt find anything wrong.
you can also feel the...
i had a yellow HGT before the clio 182
the wife has it now still a very good car lots of toys and a nice interior for your cash.
never had any problems with ours, not in the same league as a 182 but you will struggle to find a car for that sort of money that is better.
only been avaiable for the last couple of months.
you will get a much better deal on a 182 with both cup packs for a much better price.
try ebay there are a couple on there.
the spec on a standard 182 is much better than a cup.
no difference in performance and less luxuries on the cup...
"am i the only one that thinks MaLicE is talking out of his @rse ?"
that was a question mate.but justifed IMHO
i think everyone has already made their minds up which side they are on.
got to say this is the best laugh i have ever had on this board.
sorry mods and admin guys i wont do it...
i dont remember in any of my replies that i have also claimed to exceed the speed limit ?:o
i dont want to get in trouble with the police mate.

the only rule that is being broken is this going of topic,i think we are both to blame for that...

from a guy that dives a clio turbo and has nearly 2500 posts on the board that is very hard to swallow.:cry:
may be you should trade your motor in for a lada.
should struggle to top 70 so you wont get into trouble with the law:oops:
im sure a few of us have been on that private road also.
;)
make them sort it out.
tell them it comes on at 70 then accidently carry on accelerating till the whistle kicks in.
opps sorry so easy to get carried away in this car;)
should do the trick
dont let them fob you off
im sure...
the mark 1 finished in 2001.
but for that money you can get a mark 2 172 or 172 cup.
much more up to date than the dated(imho) mark 1
there are a couple on autotrader just over 7k and a high milage 52 plate cup for £6,900.
also try ebay always good for a bargain.
good luck with the...
