    what is so special about the trophy setup?

    And thats just it, most people want a trophy really, but as they haven't, they have to argue about it! Sure you can make pretty much any small hatch out perform it, but this is a limited run factory standard car that is very capable on the road. I've had enough experience in 172/182s to say...

    PH1 or PH2 replica?

    Just get the car and enjoy it, I'm guessing your not getting a sport as you can't afford insurance/the car so just save all the money you'd spend on making the clio your buying a replica and then before you know it you'll be driving about in a real sport.

    clio 182 brakes

    It was the rear of the discs that had gone on front discs, big chunks were missing, it looks like the metal has flaked of the surface. Still might be worth having a quick look, don't be a cheapskate though, after all brakes are the most important part of the car!!

    clio 182 brakes

    Pagid RS4-2 pads and standard Renault discs for me with Motul RBF660 fluid. I changed the front discs at 14k miles and i changed the rear discs at 19k miles. Both front and rear discs were replaced due to corrosion more than wear, although that said the front discs didn't have much life left in...

    what is the top speed on a 1.2 8v????

    A 182 owner here, probably 110bhp up on a 1.2 and 182's aren't even all that quick up at these speeds (110/120) yes they'll do a realistic 135 maybe but it wouldn't be easy! Not sure i'd be happy trying to see how fast i could get out of a 1.2 clio!!! Braking distances must be hugh at those...

    0-60 times

    Quick hot hatch as in a-b but as for acceleration then there is a awful lot of modern day traffic that will keep up in a straight line, all i'm trying to say is that the clio's are awesome little cars but there not about 0-60 times, and the tenths of seconds that separate the 172/182/197 isn't...

    0-60 times

    In my opinion Clio aren't straight line fast at all, 6 seconds/7seconds, it's really nothing exciting. !72/182/197 are all too close to compare, they are all great cars, enjoy them for what do they best, leave 0-60 times for the school kids to talk about............

    I had to chuckle..

    Mates at work wrote in white tape F*** the police, Cops are C**** on the back of my car, fortunately i saw it before i drove off. Bit OTT in my opinion but i did see the funny side of it, not sure i would of if i'd of driven off and got pulled over for it though!!!

    My 3 wheeled mk3 clio lol

    We've all done stupid things and sometimes still do in hindsight, lucky no one was hurt and that you've not done any body damage. Hope it all goes as planned on fixing it................
