I have just bought this car and it really is mint. It came with lots of receipts. Only the best parts used. The owner was a good bloke too. I am only running it on low boost but its there if you want. And too be honest it's not slow. I think like someone said its worth what your willing to...

If you get a second opinion and its different? You will be looking for a 3rd opinion! Lol. So lets hope the 2nd man says same as the first man :) But good luck sorting your car :D

Yeah bud it's me Carl. Looks good tho the swap. I would love to see a white ph2 tho ;) keep shell for a respray?

What you done to my cup! Lol. White ph1 looks good tho. It's just sad seeing a good car I once owned on bricks. My old Gsi turbo was for sale before Xmas too. I must pop by and have a spin in this, I wish I supercharged that cup now. I think a 250bhp Clio might of been quicker than a 300bhp Astra.

Look on renaults accessories where you will see steering wheel trim and matts etc, little carbon fibre trims that go on sill near rear wheels. They look good. I am thinking White wheels now so I will be different now. Shame Recaro's don't have White trim instead of yellow.

Spec - Glacier white Cup chassis Black Speedlines Black exterior pack Auto headlights/wipers Cornering headlights Electric folding mirrors Carbon dash pack Recaro seats Cup spoiler I would have had the RS Monitor too, but it wasn't available when I ordered the car. is that the normal 200...

Nice motor above. Thanks for input, bloody missus wants the twingo now. The thing is that sporty twingo looks a lot better from the front I think personally. Shame there down a littl on power. I really don't know what colours to go with? I did fancy gordini without stripes with the White...

Sounds nice just how I would have it mate ;)

i went in to renault norwich today to get a part, and took time to look at a black f1 clio which was 2007 i got talking to a pestering sales bloke! lol, he was ok really. looked at how affordable they were compared to other hothatches. i am really up for ordering one but i dont know what to go...

seems to be from the blowers, i started it earlier and left the blowers off, smell was normal from exhaust, no egg? but when i put the blowers inside the car on it came?? i had a sniff round the wipers before hand and it smells like bad water? i had washed the car too and its still there. going...

lol, not my feet my man :) so cat with smell inside? nothing else? cheers guys

at the moment i am getting an egg smell inside of the car when i start it? strangely its inside the car? outside i would put it down to cat but why does it smell inside? i dont have aircon? do i stil have a pollen filter? think maybe someone has planted something somewhere! lol. i did a...

i hate long journeys in it! and i hate bad roads too, makes renaults build stand out more! bumpy, rattly and bloody anoying!

Thanks mate. ;) I would have both. Before I bought my astra I was looking at a 2004 182 cup. I picked the astra as I have never owned a turbo car before. Glad I had one, now glad I have owned a clio too. Next car will be audi tho. Lol. Most likely smokey one with loads of torque ;)

I think if I drove a car everyday like it was stolen it would be the cup. But I am missing the less effort pull. Long journeys in the clio are not nice. I miss The comfort. The sounds with the popping and banging. The astra sounded more manly for me. 90% of my driving is grown up, but for the...

Thanks for you help guys, I knew it was worth joining up. I did a search and found what I needed to. Thanks again :)

i have come across a strange noise today, sounds like its from top struts? as title like wet rubber on metal when i hit bigger bumps? i heard it a couple of times since owning the car but now its when i hit a fair bump in the road. can apex springs break? car still sits level? please can someone...

you serious? i remember your car, did you ever join the astra owners club? nice astra by the way , i nearly bought a red one as they are so rare. i suppose this above is your opinion. there not that bad tho are they mate. :)

hey if that kiss is off a female then "hey how you doing?:)" lol, but if your a bloke whats going on :D? cheers buddy :D

Reyes my post came after yours, i was asking others mate. being an owner of one for a while, its hard to hear one being put down? mostly by peeps under 20 who have not experienced many motors? i am only 30 years old but i have experienced alot of cars, from xr2's,xr3i, xr4x4, cossies, rs...

What is a chav mate? And you dont see them in other cars? And they ride round in astra gsi's? Or could the be riding round in sxi's or ls models maybe?

And before anyone says it, I took my white stripes off the car :) lol

Why people saying they are chavy? Its an older mans car? Whats chavy about them? Clio's and saxo's are chav'd most of the time by 17 year old's fitting lexus lights or fusion stickers! Max power is or was chav. Bodykits and chrome spinner's. Too be honest any car can be chav'd. Its the person...

lcr's aint all that either mate, cheap build. plastics wear out. looks ok but with 300bhp they are no quicker than an astra with 230-240bhp. my mate has s3 and its no where as aggressive as my astra was, too smooth and feels like an n/a engine, same with the lcr's. turbo surge is such a nice...

nice :D

i gave a williams 2 a run up french car show in 2005? i was in a saxo vts and i pulled 2-3 car lengths on it, 1st and 2nd gear was equal but 3rd the saxo had more in it. dont ask why? driver maybe? but to be level in the first 2 gears and then both be in 3rd and to see the saxo pull away was...

newer is improved, never a backwards move(some cars maybe) but renault must be doing something right. at the end of the day they are all great from when they were built and released. got to have respect for other cars like i do. although i own a cup, its not a bad car at all, but i wont go...

good call above :) nice example mate, good to see your plans too. keep us posted :)

my astra is better than my clio for the gears, everytime i shift quickly i get a crunch! yours must of been bad? mine was the silver one.it had a great sounding 3inch from turbo back exhaust :) i miss that sound, the odd pop or bang as it spools up and you shift the gears quick. gargle sound...

bloody good car, i think they are the best shape astra ever, new ones look like mazda's! i loved every minute of mine. i had 260bhp and 300 odd torque, i would have another anyday. bottom line is they are fast whatever, good old vaux turbo. keep your seat's, vw turbo's and focus st's. mine would...
