Ive found a gem & dont worry i aint stupid; more details soon if i get this 1. ;) Thanx for all the opinions.

Right i may regret this but my Clio is going in the FOR SALE forum and am looking at a FRST this weekend. :o Spread the word and c the post there for full details. Clean, went to Stockport (multi) but didnt c u so ive leant the VHS vid to a mate. If i do get a FRST ill still keep posting...

100k is a far bit on a French engine IMO but if its been looked after sounds about right. My minter 16v may be for sale with 75k for around 4k though.

Doubt it Rob even R5 owners admit that! Care to elaberate on the amusing RS Turbo? I would like a Ford to have all the tunning goodies available to me, i doubt the charade can be extensivly modded in the UK with-out ordering from overseas. Dunno though, but generally dont want a Charade...

I want something tunable which means turbo but am only 18 so really only gives me the choice of an R5 (too unreliable) Starlet/Charade/Uno turbo (all ugly) or the Fiesta RS Turbo which can be modded to look good. I dont know whether i should sell mine for 1 though. I could put nearly 2k into...

Thats why they use small print though and a new rear quater panel is a big job.

I have to agree, i was along side some quick cars; Escort/Saff Cossie, 2.8 Z3, etc and they all ran very average times. I think us Mk1 Clios did ourselfs proud and i think it was the 1st time for all of us. I think i could still improve my 60ft time as i didnt get as good a launchs as racing at...

So any reviews? Or still not out yet? Any1 rang K-Tec? Im waiting to hear a 16v owners opinion b4 i fork out £250, plus if it aint that good then ill probably keep my PiperX IK for the sound, sucking, sssshhhhh and roaring!:cool: If any1 orders 1, it may be a good idea to do some runs with...

Dont u loose suction doing that by too much air and no resistance, dunno really :confused:? Clean; im sending the tape to Craggy to split every 1s runs up into mp3s, but if u wanna give me a VHS ill copy the contents of the cameras tape including Oulton Park with a F40 and me racin my mates...

Good point. Drive safly for a few days. ;)

Orrrrr, keep driving like a looney and i can inherit that special Willy engine u got. ;) Only kidding. Jinx?:sick:

LOL! Ur right it is addictive mate. ;) The plan for my next 1/4 miling session is coilovers, forced induction and to get a truly unbeatable 60ft time.

Any roadster will di*k a hatch round bends IMO mate.

100%? I new thered be something like that. :( Any1 work for Reno wanna help me out?

I dont think any Clios did as standard; maybe an option or were put on in other countries, or on the 19 16v which has the same wiring loom or summat. :confused:

No; got the official expiry date in front of me as October 2003 but how will they claim this is invalid even though it still is gaurenteed up to that date? I am a little scepticle that they will replace my panel with-out any hasle if i just walk into Reno and say replace my rear quarter panel as...

Not exactly well detailed but if the stage 2 work was done to a 2lt engine then itll be rapid like Adis. From Hill Power site: Stage 2 Kit. S216VCL This kit contains all of the parts necessary for an engine to produce approx 160-165 bhp giving better acceleration due to the gains in mid...

1995 registered in October with 8 years anti-corrosion warrenty in the contract. Needless to say im not the 1st owner, im the 3rd, any help mate?

I have a Clio 16v which has an anti-corrosion warrenty till October this year. 1 of my rear quarter panels has bubbling paint from the lower part of the arch caused by rust coming through. So surly this is covered in the gaurentee, only im guessing they can worm out of replacing the panel some...

Yeah, its stripped out at the mo after York so it could be the lock but how dyou go about fixing that? If i can find it exactly and have trouble fixing it ill reply with something specific. Cheers.

Yeah done that to no avail, although it was my brain dead little brother that had a look while i was driving so the noise could be located while rattling. Also tried shaking the boot lid but cant hear anything. I was kinda hoping some1 would post ow yeah it was blarr blarr and fix it by...

FAO Mk1 Clio owners; Not life or death but as annoying as sticking pins in ur eyes; Rattle coming from boot lid, behind plastic bit. Checked the bulbs and rear wiper and had some 1 crawling about in the back to try and find it with no luck. Any 1 had this typical French problem who can...

Well sounds like Honda wont be out-done after hearing they are apparently releasing a Type RS Civic, same engine tuned to 200BHP though.

Ive been told that the 16v/Willy hand book recommends 97RON+ too!

LOL :D, I like Craggys body language; concentration off the line, focused looking ahead then turn head to right and thinks to himself where u going come back, awwww, i give up 1 hand on the wheel with dissapointment. ;)

The willy lump is meant to work very well comparitvly with just a chip, de-cat and Xorst, plus cleans coilovers to launch off the line knock a couple of splits off but that is an impressive time considering.

Bugger that! Some people have far too much money! Get in touch with me next time ur feeling charitable. ;) ONLY £500 for a Y reg plate, hummm.

So u need the camera tape? No problem, i could mail it u. How u gonna do it?

Yeah, a few; when changing gear urs sounds wicked mate! There is a good 1 of u cause when i showed my Mum the tape she said oww, thats quick, ur doing well there, i didnt correct her. ;)

Ben, talking from experiance of quite a few wheel and tyre sizes now although all on stock suspension so what difference that makes im not sure. The 195 15s understeer more so while the 185s dig in and give u more composuring round bends, the 195s slide away cause they reduce body roll i...
