Unless the Clio you get is backed up by a fat stack of paid bills, it could just be another expense waiting to happen.
I'd still stick with the faux-german whip, better the devil you know and all that.
Fair enough.
Stick mini on axle stands, accumulate cash, fix mini
Clio would be a disappointment at being a road-warrior compared to mini, and a disappointment as a daily compared to the Skodder
I never knew the symptom you describe is actually a medical 'thing'! I get exactly the same, have done since I can remember.
Never did anything about it, mind.
Polarised glasses wont help you though, as you'll be totally blind at night.
re: windscreen - Be a shame if a gritter shot stones all...
So long as it covers past the sills, you'll be fine. I had one for my old Mk.2 for winter....but as a daily it was a bind to bother with and was quickly disregarded.
what, this thing?

That's what it comes with anyway. What is a "proper" snow foam lance then, link me up!
Ah right.
How about just rigging new 6x9 in the existing gaps, running an amp from speaker-level input?
That is if you can get a speaker level that hasn't had low-end filtered
Why not keep the door woofers anyway? can't hurt.
I thought the rear shelf speakers were supposed to be woofers too...but it depended on which audio kit it came with out of the factory.
Probably still had the handbrake on ;)
Clios are getting the same rep as Saxos unfortunately, but this is primarily dont to a minority of owners living up to the expectations.
It happens when quick cars get cheap to buy
If they hadn't pissed their pocket money away on carbon fibre-effect roof bubble-wrapping, they would be able to afford the petrol to get to the job centre.
anyway. ENOUGH! Thread has gone sideways. Like a Clio with bummed out rear shocks.
a road car thats actually used on track?
blimey, that's a novel theory. Most on here seem to pour money into their shopping hatchbacks to make them track weapons...only to test the limits of the McD's car park attendants

Not surprising BTF, given that's not a UK model of phone. dual-SIM is heavily shunned by networks here as it means they can't get 100% of the...
Ultimately, driver tuition will be far more effective at improving your track day skills than chucking £50,000 of parts on a £500, decade-old hatchback.
Trufax.
Also, go and just do a trackday BEFORE you start upgrading. What you think you need to upgrade may not be a problem at all.
Finally...
Is it worth upgrading from non-cup to cup? not really.
Buying a cup over a non-cup, possibly. But you will need to be Mansell to notice any difference.
Given we're talking about cars that are nigh on 10 years old now, the condition they're kept in will dictate how they ride more than what parts...
I'm still weighing up options for the east Cambs area, something along a similar idea but more Cambridge / Newmarket way.
It's all about finding somewhere that's
1) not s**t
2) not mega£££££s
3) has local options for phototime, or pre-/post-meet event.
4) has spare parking for, say, 15 cars.
Many of them, yes.
That said, the essex biker squad that went past me during the summer, 4 of them were only using their rear wheels....down a main road, surrounded by traffic.
So dickhead standards aren't unique to the 4-wheeled motorist.
