Whats wrong with that?

In exactly the same boat too! Bought my Cup thinking it will be perfect as is, but then it never stays standard, evee if it just painting some things to make it look better! Every car ive had has been queeked/play about with, and i dont think ill change! Just think, you look at any old car and...

As above spotted a few times today by heatherwood hospital in Ascot, with Oz turbo's? (very nice wheels!) Also caught it towing a yellow Ibiza Cupra. I was the BT guy freezing his bo*%ocks off on the roundabout! Nick

You cant have a monaco blue williams 2 unless its been resprayed! Monaco blue was only on the williams 3 i believe! Wouldnt de-sticker it personally either! Would change the colour of the wheels, or even buy another set of williams wheels to do in another colour.

So its only going up to £260? Because i was looking on the dvla the other day about the new tax brackets for next year, and it seems my car still stays at £210? I drive a 52 plate Cup... Some others ive been talking to say its going to £400! It just seems like chinese whispers if you ask me!

That sound nuts!

Right i need you guys to clarify some things for me. I get a knocking noise when going round corners fast, and when it looses traction (like going over a bump) intermitently. Is this due to the engine mounts? I also get a rubbing noise when i accelerate hard in 1st and 2nd, im guessing this...

There isn't a lot of problems that i came across when my Maxim S was a 1.4, pretty bomb proof engine and gearbox. As said there might be problems with rust, the one i had only had 60k miles so the shell was mint, and i mean mint, with no surface rust anywhere on the car and no repairs done to...

Okay sorry about my english obviously not as perfect as you:rolleyes: Tbh im not going to bother putting silver visions on, id rather spend money else where other than removing the smallest bit of orange on the car. Ordered springs for it already, there in the post. And for the cup badge on...

So heres my reasonably new 172 Cup! Competely standard when i purchased it in July. Since then ive purchased some Ktr carbon fibre door pillars and some new badges from Renault to go over the top of the carbon. I also brought a 197 Cup badge for the back, a subtle touch which...

I started doing my side bullets yesterday, never painted anything in my life! Laquer went on alright, but had a little bit of problem with the satin black. But will be doing it slowly this week to make sure there perfect otherwise they wont look right. Satin Black bullet with yellow writing FTW...

Monaco Blue is the best colour!

Came out of the car park by the Odeon cinema around 10ish? Lovely colour! :) Nick

I also had one of these! But i turned mine into a hybrid! Lovely cars, got all the comforts of a 16v, but in a 1.4! There quite good in terms of rust on the ph3 too, if looked after them shells will last a long time. Quite nippy too in terms of the 1.4 class! Plus thats the best Renault Colour...

Me being very inpatient and not very careful, whats the bets way to remove them without snapping the clips? Cheers Nick

That does!

Yea getting a set of buckets will be on the list, but as for coilovers, ive owned a set before, a set of fully adjustable avos for my old mk1 hybrid. Didnt rate coilovers at all! I know that you need them setting up, but i personally thought that a decent set of shocks and springs would be just...

Been hearing a lot about this rstuner and im confused, you buy a plug in kit, and choose your own settings? Or is there a list that you can choose from?

£100! Thats awesome, how much would they be just for the tyres? Nick

Looking to spend a fair wedge of it on my Cup... Its mainly suspension orientated parts im interested in changing. Looking at replacing my lower arms and balljoint with powerflex bushes all round, and my top mounts also. Been looking at front and rear strut-braces also, how do people rate...

Sorry to hijack your thread... But what and where is this acoustic valve? I own a 172 Cup, does this come with one and is there any real benefits of taking it off?

Lol, yea i was gunna turn left, but i thought seeing as it was the first modified clio around my area, i thought id see if it wanted a bit of a play :) What have u had done to yours? Looked like an aftermarket exhaust on there? And its a shame your friend in the type r couldnt keep up :)

Indeed:)

Spotted by Slyfield Industrial Estate in Guildford.... Some spirited driving which is what we like to see:) Nick

Im guessing that quite a few people have been there from this forum... Im thinking of going next year around June time, what are your guys tips in preparation, being there and what needs changing when you come back? At the moment, im getting the comlete powerflex bush set for my Cup, with new...

Thats a truely stunning clio! I would own that regardless of the fact its not a sport!

Ive had a couple of run ins against the megane 225's, indeed they are faster, but not what i expected seeing as they are like 60bhp more than my Cup...

Mine does this too on my Cup, one of my friends said that if i had an aftermarket exhaust, it would go away because the standard renault exhaust is quite restrictive and it needs a bigger bore free flowing exhaust.... Not sure if thats rubbish or not tho....
