take of some of those horrible shiney plastic bits inside and itll look half decent, hate the wheels, they look like something a chav would put on his 1991 cosra 1.2!! and the wingmirrors are the fugly stepsister of a cave troll! other than that, i quite like the exterior styling, <1L turbo...

does the cup still have 5 seater on the logbook?? or is it sold as a 4 seater?! afaik, all seats need belts and all belts need seats. and REMOVED safety equitment will definately make complications!

As above, never call you car euro!! It demands hate straight away regardless of how it looks!! As for the car you could have saved some time and stole a pic of mine, looks the same just with smaller wheels. Feel free to find my old threads and have a look! As for the look, its been done quite...

theyre pretty much the same as the garbled shite i managed to decipher off the rotten cats i had!! thankyou soo much for your help mate! credit to cliosport!!

very generic euro mods imo, other than the wheels and stance theres nothing really euro about it, dont like the stickers and bonnet bra at all.

+1, if you couldnt see from logic why the springs were not falling out straight away, im slightly worried

Standard wheel trims would look better! sorry im not a fan!

nicer built, a lot more luxury than a mk2 clio i think theyre quite a bit slower than the clios though, im guessing youre moving from a 1.2 though.

On the rears, take out the arch liners and you can go very low! i had custom 100mm springs on the rear with no problems, then raised it up because it was a little too low! on the front, the first thing to hit is the arch liners...... take out the arch liners and you can go lower until the...

could be a bent shaft, put the car on stands and let it run (leave it in neutral so wheels only turn slowly), should be pretty obvious if ones bent, could also be CV joints, but it would have to be pretty severe to be noticeable in a straight line, tracking, wheel bearing, wheel weighting...

twice ive had the rear pads fall out of these shitey rear callipers!! just be thankful you were going slow when it happens!! i wasnt on one occassion and its made for a scarey few seconds of brake pumping!! absolutely awful design so i made sure my pads had some extra retainers now! however...
