That parking is atrocious!!

Yeah Id love to have a drive in one, my 1.3 sr was fun enough back in the day! I actually after reading and replying to this thread watched an Adam smith video on one. They sound so good!

It appears it’s a genuine sport, and worth quite a chunk of money! They were registered as nova base models Awesome little cars

It would be cool if you could get one and retrofit it but with a side load of android, so for shows you’d have the original sat nav but for use you’d have up to date stuff. Or just get a housing (rare as rocking horse poo) and put a double din in.

Really nice in silver and the arch kit is awesome! Miss mine!

I absolutely love this! It’s awesome, and I’m really jealous of it! Love a bit of Americana. my only complaint is that I couldn’t hear country music blaring on the drive by video?!

Defo crying out for a resonator delete…

I miss my 200 edc more than nearly any other car, but if your getting a 5 turbo AND can drive the Clio on weekends, it’s a good idea.

It could have been one of these?

Or parts of Birmingham…. You see the plates there too! 🤣

Really nice car mate. I have seen a couple with bonnet lifters so maybe that’s a thing you need next? 🤣

I’ve replaced a couple and if it’s soldered in like most is quite simple if you have a steady hand and a soldering iron. Definately worth a go as they are only a few quid.

He’s a clever one, he’s topping up the coolant!

It’s big enough to have been! I drove one years ago, what an experience it was.

Absolutely love petrol blue and miss mine!

On that note, that brochure shows arctic blue as a metallic pearlescent illusion paint too, just like the id paint colours? Thought arctic was just metallic, not pearl.

Looks lovely, really clean. Makes me miss my 200 and wish I’d bought another one. 😔😭

Ah yes it was, that’s it. My mistake. I loved my petrol blue and would’ve done no matter what it was called.

Wasn’t paddock green the earlier colour used in the 172 exclusive and the Megane? Maybe they tweaked the colour and called it petrol blue instead

Toca 2! Remember playing that!

Have a look through the manual, I’m sure it will say in there that the daytime running lights are the sidelights.

hi. The sidelight bulbs in the headlights are present but do not work on the rs model, it appears they fitted bulbs as a matter of course. The daytime running lights in the bumper are the sidelights. Are your daytime running lights working? Is they are it seems strange they’d fail the mot for...

We’ve got a blink doorbell, it’s ok for what it is and cost. The software is decent and quality is ok.

They might be Renault accessory parts having a Renault badge on them, because I’m sure the twingo wheels were 15”.

I’m pretty sure the tyre size was 195/40/16 for a 172 cup and maybe 205/40/16 for the trophy. I know a popular mod is to fit the 205 tyres so they should be the same. Although to be fair I thought the widths were the same whether trophy or cup wheels so maybe I’m wrong.

I always thought that 172’s without the alarm sensors and led were imports. I had one that didn’t have them and that wasn’t listed as an import but was definately one. If I remember correctly there were a lot of 172’s that were imports due to car supermarkets buying them cheap and selling them on.

Awesome build mate, and something definately different! Look forward to the outcome.

Don’t blame you mate.

Nice write up and will help people no end. Certainly looks the part. You need to get a project thread up as it seems you’re doing some nice bits! Car looks good

That’s the one I was thinking, don’t think we got it over here, but remember seeing the advert for them and yours looked similar.
