Nice looking motor Monk. Tim.

Come on then you wana race or what????

Monk, Agreed nice plane love to go up in something like that, going fast has always fascinated me almost killed me a few times. Idiots like this lot are the ones that lead me to do stupid things. (R.I.P Clio 16v) Tim.

Can’t polish a turd so why try??? Tim.

I have now owned 3 Clio’s 1.2,1.816v and now my 172 so I do know the difference between them, and from experience comparing the 1.2 to the 172 is like comparing a milk float to a Mclaren F1. Put whatever mod’s you want on the 1.2 and the 172 would still slaughter it on the twisty bits and on the...

Ok then lets take it to the track or drag strip if you want, where the boys are sorted from the men the true test of a car. You think you can put up a better time than me, OK lets got ill race you for logbooks. Just to let you know, I can do 0-60 in 6.8 and reach a top speed of 145MPH fancy a go...

Raced a Lockheed Blackbird Spy Plane tonight, caned it was no match for my mighty 172. He had the advantage up to the sound barrier but when we hit mach 2 I few past him. Those afterburners don’t really push out that much power compared to my 2.0 16v VVT. Slow c***. Im sure you 1.2 boys could...

LOL

Don’t think mine has got that it only has been introduced recently along with traction control. Thanks anyway for you input. Tim.

Now here is a MAN(Monk) who knows what he is talking about.

You read my mind I was just about to post the same thing, when I had my 1.2 I didn’t make up c**k and bull stories about thrashing these sort of cars because you just know your going to get laughed at. The only thing I can think of it that these lads don’t really know how much faster these cars...

Exactly what I thought!!

It feels like there is to much break power at the front because the nose dips wright down and transfers all the weight forward when breaking and makes the back end to light so the tail dances around I was just hoping stiffening up the car might stop this??? Tim.

If so any suggestions for lowing springs??? (What make and where to go for fitment?)

Does anyone else have this problem, When breaking heavily from high speed the back end of the car slides skips and squirms around as if the car is trying to do an “endow”. Would lowering the car sort this problem out??? Tim.

That was bump strip not bump stip.

Still say they look crap dont see why you want them. Anyway i think you do have to take the whole lot off because they hook on to the bump stip. Mine hade to go back to Renault to have the pasenger side one put back on because it was hanging off when i got the car. Tim.

All 3 Clios i have had have not gone into 1st when moving must just be some sort of weird Renault thing. Tim.

HILLY, If you can have a EVO 6 you must eat 172’s for breakfast in your mighty little 1.2 LOL. Tim.
