Just wondered if anyone had any pics of their interior mods and ICE. There aint much space in a Clio was wondering how much people had crammed in. :D Heres few pics of my 172 - http://server2.uploadit.org/files/alexjmills3-My_Interior_2005.jpg...

Seen you drive passed me a couple of times. Got a big kit on it, possiblly a Kombat Evolution bodykit, tinted windows etc. Anyone on here??

Driving home from work heading towards Purley and I spied 3 172s on the same road. First passed a silver then another and then a blue 172 Cup. I dont often see that many maybe one every couple of days, then three at once, like bloody buses lol

What RPM does the gear change light come on? And how good do you reckon it is. Ive done 12k in my 172 and the gear change light has come one only about 4 times since Ive been driving it. :confused:

Does anyone else feel that their Clio drives better with a full tank of fuel. I know the weight would slow it down slightly but I prefer it full than nearly empty. I dont tend to leave less than 1/4 of a tank anyway. Whats peoples thoughts?

Waiting to go into the Whitgift centre car park and saw a very ropey Clio Cup WANNABE!! Had Turinis which isnt bad, had silver badges on the door (16v) but the worst bit was the Sport badge stuck under the Clio badge. Wasnt even the same font. What with the limo tints it just looked really...

In the year and a bit since Ive had my 172 Ive only had one aknowledgment from another Clio driver, in fact it was a Clio Cup driver. But what is it with all the Renaultsport drivers who just ignore other Renaultsport drivers!?!?! You give them a nod or a friendly flash and they look at you...

Saw a bog standar Mk1 beaten Clio with a young lady driving it. Bad thing about it was the RenaultSport sticker on the back window?!!?!? :confused: You know what, I wasnt convinced it was a real one! lol

Was out with the missus yesterday and spied a very battered and badly modded escort. Now my missus drives a subtely modded Fiesta Zetec-S with Scorpion exhaust and induction kit, and therefore sounds kinds cool. Get to some traffic lights and all three of them are staring our way. She puts...

Im sitting at a really awkward junction where people always block the exit. Spied a silver 03 plate 172 and thought ooh he might let me out, the driver was a right miserable old git. Middle aged, balding guy who was insistent he wasnt going to let anyone in front of him and was edging forward...

I know people have said before but what revs does the rev limiter kick in at. Isnt it set lower until the car warms up as well? Anyone know that the top speed of a 172/182 in each gear is before hitting the limiter????? I aint hit the limiter yet and if I ever do I m sure I wont be watching...

Saw a blue V6 putting his foot down at the traffic lights near Asda. Seemed to be coming from the Tattenham Corner direction. Nice to see a car being driven like it should!! :D

...and it has an interesting artilcle on the Fiesta ST150 vs Clio 182 Cup vs Seat Ibiza Cupra. They actually rate the ST over the 182 in regards to overall hot hatchness what with the bigger wheels and racing stripes. I think part the reason why the 182 Cup lost was the interior! If they...

Does anyone have a video of a Mk2 172??? Have had a search but cant find any, possibly me being stooopid! Cheers

Does anyone have any video clips of a Clio in .AVI format. I got a Pioneer headunit that allows you to load your own OEL video clips/animations but to convert I need to have .AVI files. If anyone knows where I can download that would great. Cheers :D

Just wondered whose done the highest mileage in a 172 or 182 and how well is it holding up?? Only interested as so many people moan about rattles etc but I wondered how they are after say 70-80k???

Just out of interest how do the real younuns on here pay for their 172/182 etc?? And how much is your insurance?? I managed to buy a brand new 172 when I hit 21 and I thought I was lucky!! :D

Has anyone got a set of these on a Mk2 172?? Or can anyone photoshop them on? I love the wheels just wondered what theyd look like. :D

Does anyone have any pics/videos of a Clio racing an Audi 3 preferably the 1.8T??? Some guy at work still doesnt reckon my Mk2 172 would be quicker than his 150bhp A3 so I want proof. ;)

My Pioneer DEH-8400MP decided to pack up recently. Was the one with the dual face, looked great but after two years kept swiching off when the face was moved. So managed to get this unit for £350 from The Car Audio Centre. http://server2.uploadit.org/files/alexjmills3-New_Headunit1.jpg Highly...

Ive got my 172 back from Renault and it looks like they may have got the it back to tip top shape. They only put 20 miles on the clock due to road testing twice (drafty door and squeaky seat) and all interior panels refitted and no damage at all. Only minor gripe was the fact that the car...

Just wondered how many peeps use their Clio as their only car as commuting, pleasure etc. Or how many people have a 2nd car they use for all the mundane stuff?? :D

Dont get me wrong I really love my 172, driving it, styling, features etc. But I hate Renault dealers. :( As I have mentioned on here before I mentioned a possible wobbly seat when it went for a service in November. They swapped the seat runners and in the process damaged the door handle, kick...

Just

Right got a call from Renault today. The interior trim that they damaged at the beginning of November has finally arrived. Taking it in on Saturday so they can fit it and get a lovely 1.2 courtesy car with £1000 excess! lovely :confused: BUT they did tell me that because I have a more...

Ive just looked under my bonnet and noticed that my induction kit air filter had fallen of and was laying in the bottom half of the standard air box!!! I dont know how long its been off for as the engine note didnt seem to change too much once it was back on. It could have been off for up to...

I was went out last night and on my way home decided to give my 172 a blast down the mad mile on the A217 toward Sutton. Gear change light on in each gear up to 4th!! Hadnt driver the car for a few days and that put a big grin on my face. Feels good to own a car that cheers you right up!! :D :D

What is the crap they put down on the roads!! This is the first year Ive noticed it but my car is getting covered in this black sh!ite that sprays up the side of my car!!!! It aint mud and isnt grit/salt?!?!?! Its doing my nut trying to keep it clean...aaaaarrgggghhh!! :@

Just wondered what kinda mileage people do in their Clios? I do just under 10k a year, just as well as thats the limit on my insurance. Just being nosey really and also wondered if the Renaulstsports stand up well with high mileage??? :D

Well its only been since over a month for Renault to get their arses in gear and Im still waiting for the parts they damanged replacing the drivers seat runners!!! Apparently they are waiting from their suppliers in France and they dont even have the ability to call them to find out whats...
