Hey, I'm not offended, each to there own and all that. I don't think of it as a fast car but instead a project that I have started and finished and to a good standard.
It is different and unexpected which is what I like about it. If I wanted a car to just race past everyone I would own an...
Prilliams spec.
Engine, gearbox, loom and ecu from a williams 3.
Manual steering conversion, pas pump replaced with Renault 5 gtx alternator brackets.
K&N panel filter.
Full standard williams exhaust and manifold (silenced decat to be fitted).
Polished rocker cover.
Clio 16v front...
The engine has a polished rocker cover and the engine bay itself is clean, that is as far as I could be bothered.
I prefer the 15s and will prob get 195 tyres as even the 185 is not that good.
Don't worry it isn't getting chaved at all.
Handling is alright but I want to fit coilovers set to a near standard height.
The bonnet doesn't rub as I have trimmed the inner skin.
I'll try to post the full spec later.
I did think of fitting lexus lights to chav it up but, er no!
It had 14s on it previously and it really struggled with traction.
Its a weekend toy so I don't use it a lot. Have suprised a few people in normal cars who thought they could cut in front of the slow car but I haven't had the chance to race anything interesting.
There will be 3 trims...
Front is running 16v bilstein shocks and standard springs. The rear has williams shocks and needs lowering to match the ride height of the front.
I intend on get hub caps for the steel wheels.
I intend on spraying the r19 wheels in white and keep them for trackdays if I get to do any.
There is a chap on the clio16v forum selling a set of the same wheels if you are after a set.
Them saab trims look the nuts, too nice for the look I am after.
I am fitting the 16v steel rims which have a deep and beefy look to them which is why I want to fit trims.
I was thinking of having three trims and one missing.
The wheels in that picture are no longer on the car, they...
Looking for some assistance in picking suitable 15" wheel trims. I know people are usually asking about alloy wheels but this is a sleeper I have been putting together hence the wheel trims.
I have included a pictures of the car and I now have a set of 15" steel wheels which will be fitted...
Re: ***How much is my car worth?***
My mate has a 182 cup which he has owned for a while now. He usually trades his cars in when he wants to change but this times wants to try and get a private sale so he has asked me to help advertise it.
I said I will help him write an advert to place on...

I am viewing a 53 plate dci on the weekend (I think it is a dci 80).
Now I know the usual details to check when viewing a car but I wanted know if there are any particular details or common faults I should check for on the Clio dci?
Are you refering to the orange engine shape light to the right of the clocks?
This has always been on due to the lamba sensor and the sports cat.
The light has always been on but since it started running funny the light will intermitantly flash instead of just staying lit.
Where is the...
The girlfriends mk2 1.6 16v is not running properly help please.
So far I have hooked up a diagnosis computer which states a missfire on cylinder 3.
Have changed the spark plugs, checked the wires are clipped on to the fuel injectors and have done a compression test on cylinder 2 and 3...
Timing belt went but all fixed now.
It is lowered on coilovers.
I thought they look spot on but personal taste, that and the pictures are not that good.
Yeah it is Dinks old motor.
I remember, glad someone likes them, I think they look far better as they are a dishy wheel giving the car a wider appearance.
Here is my girlfriend's clio which was fitted with TSW Pace wheels.
Now fitted with Wolfrace Eurosport Spyder wheels.
The pictures are not the best and the car could do with a wash lol.
