    The £20 Challenge! hehe.

    Personally mate i'd hold off for a year or two and get a NCB under you, then perhaps try SKY insurance or the like on here. Personally i'd go no higher than circa 1200 a year !

    Weird and strange facts about clio's.

    Don't Nissan and Renault cohabitate so to speak, im sure they both have shares in each other, something about Nissan producing poor Diesels and Renault producing poor petrols

    1st step onto the RS ladder

    Yeah phase 1 mainly mate, the problem I have is if I buy a wrecker and drive it 5 hours home and it dies I'm in trouble lol I did consider making a project thread but to be honest it's very hard to come up with something that's not already been done :P

    1st step onto the RS ladder

    Cheers for the feedback :) Yeah the blue one does have some... interesting features. The alloys, t**t strip and tint's would be going and it need's a lower engine mount. That asides 1250 for it seems decent. The only thing putting me off the silver is the distance to be honest

    1st step onto the RS ladder

    The year quote is what i would limit myself too, i doubt id be able to stay out of it for that long :P Think of it more as a project car, I have my non-sport which I will be using day in day out and the engine will likely be staying put if it has no reason to come out. The other stuff I will be...

    1st step onto the RS ladder

    Strip it down to bare bit's, as mentioned above it will be rebuilt with new parts in some occasions. If anybody is wondering there is no logic in this, purely recreational lol (But then that's surely why we all tinker with cars)

    1st step onto the RS ladder

    You pose a good question, my answer would be that I know nothing about sports (Other than what I've read) and if I've taken it apart and put it back together generally I know what is what. It is a fair point and all I would say is this beats the PS3 and such for a pass time :P (I also like the...

    1st step onto the RS ladder

    Yeah that is true, the blue is not far from me so I might have to go see what doc's it has and stuff, that silver it quite a trip but in that condition it's a good price !

    1st step onto the RS ladder

    Hey I'm looking for my first sport to buy and I'm pretty sure it's going to be off a member on here. The two that stand out for me (For various reasons and distance to travel for me to go view the car) are: http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?550138-PH1-CLIO-172-BLUE-2001(Y)-%A31495...

    Trip display

    Looks like it might be the display, the bottom half cant quite make up it's mind. They slot out after there taken apart if I can remember back to the last set of dial's I butchered!

    From memory there are some (Long raised road style) speed bumps on the coast and some of the normal humps on the road before the coast, generally not too bad

    Hmm looking at the pic's it looks very molested, also no air box ? :S http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/RENAULT-CLIO-RENAULT-SPORT-172-12-MONTHS-MOT-CHEAP-CAR-/110635733605?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item19c2675265#ht_1718wt_881 0 Feedback too so im guessing this is a copied add.

    north east big meet - sunday 30th Jan

    Yeah, car's on the coast never get good press. I read an article on our local paper for the Little haven hotel for a similar thing and it was not pretty. Police are very suspicious of cruising car's so be careful with your speed. Might pop down and take a few snaps !
