Yeah the ragnottis is the Cup in the EU, its only called the Cup over here after the race series.

Ive only see normal 172s as imports. This is the biggest market for the Cups and i think they supply us with enough as it is.

There is no direct comparison between the saxo performance models and the clios. So theres no point comparing -Rob

:D

Yeah look to be paying around 11k

Id expect youd be paying around the same for what an R5 owner would be paying, probably more though.

Do you use them on the road you nutter?

Yeah im not that bothered bout the leather, depends how sh*t the non leather ones look like!

lol you shuld be an ecotek salesman!

Cost cutting tip: Im not sure if its the same for you 172 boys but my spare has the same tyre as normal so ill only be buying the one tyre.

Cool nice on. Should of realised that, i wrote my tyre pressures there.

How did you find the site? or Why did you join the Club? Might help if you want to advertise at some point. Though thats a pretty boring suggestion i admit.. -Rob

Theyll also last longer

Well the block and everything will be the same size so there wouldnt be much of a difference. So in short, no.

Thanks for such a detailed response. I think ill hire someone from the club to come with me so i make sure i get the best i can when the time comes. Ill do my best to get to meanstreet! -Rob

Ok thanks :)

No chance? I think that would depend on the driver, i would only have a duel where there are some bends involved, otherwise its not my kinda fun. I could drive a 172 up a b road quicker than a CTR and so would anyone else. OK straight drag yeah youd pull away pretty easily actually..but who cares??

A crash diet for you and the car? Get down the gym and remove the rear seats and wheel! Otherwise a 50bhp shot of NOS maybe

Id want aircon and whatever it doesnt come with which the Clio has! Handles to a point. Anyway not the end of the world you can always sell it if you dont like it and if you like it you made the right choice. Simple? -Rob

I was driving it yesterday as my car was left at work. Its my dads girlfriends, A 230 with AMG alloys in black, nice to look at but not so nice to be inside. I also felt like i should be racing to the hairdressers. -Rob

Well they do look the same, but mine has no lumbar support or anything, cant say ive had a thorough look at the seats, aslong as by bum is comfy a check isnt needed!

In my new clio i had to go to normal unleaded for a fill as there was no optimax, but filled it up at shell yesterday and its back to 1000%. Def a difference!

is that all it is, doesnt sound very descriptive?

Theyre good tyres How much did you pay for them?

lol Blacks hard to clean though as i know already. So should i get a phase 1 or 2, what are the differences apart the obvious external ones? Is one cheaper to insure than the other? As much as id like to go mad mate i wont be modding it. Id like to have a look at yours sometime though :)

As far as the seating position goes on the Clio it suits me perfectly. Seats themselves have very good side support. No complaints from me.

The after sales was peerless but the journalist was saying even though overall he would give it a good rating its probably a bit unjust to bump up the cars plus points just because the service was good. He grew to like the looks, which is fair enough, even i am warming to them! But he said he...

With a performance car you have to be careful, the exhaust is developed to aid as well as just cut emissions etc. Therefore a lot of systems will lose power. Obvious ones like K-tec and Magnex would prevent this. I would go to Hayward and Scott, probably the best custom exhaust makers in the UK...

Fitting different cams isnt a problem..not sure about using them on road cars but your friend seems like he did something wrong with his?

good thinking
