Day 1 of Pearl White 220 ownership!
Early start with a 6:45am train from Southend to West Ham, short Jubilee Line to London Bridge then a 25 minute train ride to Beckenham in South London arriving at the Masters Renault dealership at a prompt 8:55am! A well needed Costa pitstop between the...
Renault Retail group have a few, ordering a new one has a waiting time of months. It's also down to what spec you're after. Now they're not making the RS Clio anymore it's now a case of whats about.
There's a Liquid Yellow 67 plate full spec with 3k on the clock down at Westover Renault in...
That last paragraph is quite refreshing to read.... Such amazing machinery but still chatting about French tin cans to a good mate. I remember your forum name from ages back, I look forward to reading up on the Trophy progress.
Hi! Now that all the formalities like finance, deposit and insurance are all arranged I think it's time I can finally announce the impending collection of my new car.
Behold the 2017 ID Pearl White Renault Clio 220 Trophy!!
Photos are from the Pistonheads advert but you get the idea of what...
Correct, they're going to stop making the RenaultSport Clio. You can still place an order now which will take months but it's pretty much done. So it's whatever the dealers have in the UK Renault dealer network, waiting for 18 plate demos to be able to be sold or buy pre reg, 1 owner 66 plate...
Pads.... On a budget.... You'll get what you pay for. If you have to pay nearly double for something that won't fade on you when driving at speed then so be it... There'll have to be a compromise somewhere, the first being cracking open the wallet that bit more or secondly a little bit more...
Funny thing is my daughter didn't drive it when I owned it, but can on a motorway lesson. She loves the Clio and was genuinely upset when I sold it, but happy Sash bought it as she's her driving instructor so knows its gone to a good home
Mapped Megane 225 but was black! Soo many similarities in car owmership!
Glad you made the jump to Clio Mk4 RS ownership and boy what a choice to go into. Definitely a baller spec, I mean come on Akra, RS Monitor and leather... In Liquid Yellow.... Yes yes.
Unfortunately not, sold with everything on. Trade in at the dealers gave me a price, I would have had to strip the mods off to make the extra money back. I've managed to sell as is and then some.
Erm, you're not wrong! It all came up in conversation and the seed was planted, I then looked into facelift prices and realised I could afford one. A phone call later and the deal was done, I just couldn't say no.
So tonight, the Clio was sold and picked up by the new owner. It's all happened fairly quickly, it was an offer I made to someone at a decent price which they snapped up. Its now given me an opportunity to buy a much newer facelift model Clio which I liked the day they came out.
For now I'm...
I have a friend that lives 40 minutes north of Amsterdam attending their national meet, half jokingly weeks ago saying in a text convo saying I should come over.
Cue a ferry booking Friday 5pm and heading down to Dover Saturday morning for the 4:20am ferry! Arriving in his town of Hoorn just...
I think I wad the only brit there! Yeah 22 degrees at one point, then back home it's 10 degrees and rain!
I took a few photos so I'll post a thread up on here later, but the range of Renaults to see was awesome, old school to the new Megane 4RS and Alpine.
It's the opposite way, there's a detailed thread on TR! I have plenty of photos that date back to the day of purchase, I'll sift through and start a project thread on here.
Awesome, there was a base spec 19 at Dynodaze this weekend with a Meg 225 lump dropped in. Looked more like a barn find, never washed, mould infested, hub caps! But 230hp!
I had a Chamade 16V and a Hatch 16V years ago, I dropped a C1J lump in from a GT Turbo with a hybrid which kicked out 180hp...
