I'm looking to get my Williams insured for the summer this year and want some advice on how to insure my clio. I want to insure it for 6 months (April-September). Would I qualify for a classic policy, with limited mileage to decrease the premium even more? 1995 Clio Williams 3 22 years old (me...

Saw this one myself, looks very nice, and you don't see many Turbo 2000's in Sonic Blue! (Although in the pics the colour looks a bit 'faded' compared to P1/Type Rs ive seen in Sonic Blue? £4k seems a bit strong though? Its not hugely low mileage at 114k either. Nice car.

Looks good, I actually like the tinted rear lights, didn't think I would. Kinda looks like the golf gti variants that have tinted rear lights (Edition 30/Golf R etc). Nice.

Mk3 Engine? Looks nice. Whats the spec? @NorthloopCup

Had a go in a megane DCI as a courtesy car, really really didn't get on with the driving position/interior, clio feels much more comfortable to drive (and i'm 6'1"). How long did he keep the megane? Trophy was a good idea! What's the mileage?

Why the sudden move from the R26, he didn't like it? Trophy looks sweet

I would keep the trophy. It's the ultimate hot hatch (in my eyes). Regardless of prices going up/down or saving money by buying a 182 and tweaking it etc, just keep the Trophy and dont care about the miles. It will happily run to 150k+ i'd imagine if you look after it. Enjoy it, it's special...

Maybe the blobeye had different ratios to the hatchback, would be more than likely. That 2.9k at 80 is in your new hatch?

What model was the WRX-S, a hawkeye? Was looking at specs of wrx/stis the other night and from what I read the 5th gear in the blob/hawk WRX 5-speed was infact very similar but slightly longer than the 6th gear in sti blob, which doesnt tally up to you what you've just said? Maybe the info on...

Very nice, how was the blobeye STI as a daily? Think they look really nice, and the engine/box combo seems sweet (super short ratios on that 6-speed?!) Looking at possibly getting one next year, was initially thinking the WRX but the STI really seems a whole lot more car for ~£2-3k more. Any...

Sounds like me when im the passenger in the girlfriends car.. LOL

Is that a bit of handbrake at the end of the straight after the yellow cones? Looks like some good fun!

Looks f**king awesome.. Wheels are perfect, I don't know why anyone would put ANY other wheel on a 1*2, given the choice. Have you sprayed your front plastics black?

Don't know if this is the right section, anyway - My dad has a 11 plate 520d (184bhp twin turbo diesel), and is looking at a re-map. He made some enquiries and ended up speaking to a bloke from AAS (Advanced Automotive Solutions), and got a quote for £299 for someone to come to our house and...

That car is ridiculous, would love to buy it but can't atm! Bet it goes like stink? Any idea how much it weighs? Reckon it would be usable daily if you popped a full interior back in?

^ Those outwardly rolled tips look horrible

I also hate the outwardly rolled tips - I think they look terrible and don't suit the clio at all. I would either go for inwardly rolled tips (I had on my Fiesta ST150 piper exhaust - 3.5" exit, looked perfect), or for the slash cut, which also seem to suit the rear end of a 182 nicely. Deffo...

One of the best looking cars on the road. Needs turinis though?

Looks epic, agree that the wheels would 100% look better silver, but that's me!

Fall in love with LY more and more everytime I see it, Vee looks fantastic as well, the black on black really goes well. Ps. @TonkaTruck did I read on your profile LY182 -AND- 28k Mile Trophy?! Winning. Let me know if you ever sell the Trophy. I need a trophy one day.

Epic, sorry to go off topic, but Martin, why do you have FOUR? Surely the 172/Trophy serve the same purpose essentially? :smile:

That looks like a really nice place to be on a long drive/holiday away. That's interesting about the gearknob, what's special/different about it?

Love that Jag, proper nice interior too! Got any more pics of the inside? Lovely clio too, soo much road presence.. I bet it makes people look!

Not bad at all, I made that 8.5 0-60, that's pretty damn impressive for a 1.2 8v. Good work!

Nice clio, any pics or links to pics of your valver? Just curious :smile:

What cams and power?

Disgusting

Lovely! Only 38k, is it a second car or what do you use it for?

159.9 lb/ft torque - aren't the factory figures 147 lbs/ft for the 182? If so thats a good engine!

Very nice, I have a red ST, really like the de-tango'd headlights look, I'm looking to do this myself, have you got any pointers/advice or link to any guides on doing it? I think you'll love the MP165, I have Janspeed manifold/sports cat + piper resonated cat-back, and K&N Induction kit - sounds...
