If I had to choose it would be the trophy.

Some overweight little daring got out of his mummys A6 and did my rear wing. Fat little b**tard! Chipsaway said they couldnt do it.

Didnt Mike do one on Fubars car?

Just wanna know who it was in the 1.2 16v that my mate Jim beat during his day at work? He drives coaches lol!

Any good? Currently use Meguiars: Step 1 (at all the time) > Step 2 > #21 > #16 Will I benefit from klasse instead of step 2?

Anything is possible depending on how much you wanna spend. A couple of guys on here are running 1.2s with 172 conversions and one guy (J3ned) has a mk2 with a vag 1.8T running 300bhp. reason= i love undercover cars (see below!) http://www.cliosport.net/members/photos/VDZJFSFFJM.jpg...

Turinis are a bugger to clean!

^^ dont think thats the point their trying to put across. Ive just read the article.

Agreed, for me a Valver is close but no cigar!

So does every internal combustion engine lol!

a modern (and heavy) 1.6 Astra I can understand but I used to have a late mk2 Paxo VTR and never had real problems with Clio 1.2 16vs. Its 1.6 (90bhp) Vs 1.2 (75bhp) plus the Saxo is lighter. Id put a VTRs performance between a 1.4 and 1.6 tbh. Also a pug (106 or 206) quiksilver is 1.4 8v 75bhp...

Better off selling and buying a faster motor mate. eg. You can get a mk1 172 for £4,500 now and mk2s are going for £6500. Once you starting modding a 1.2 your gonna put the insurance up anyway. Might as well just sell it and buy a 172 (or something with similar performance). You could spend...

Some skinny bordering on slightly ugly bitches as usual I see. A couple arent bad this time.

The MAD gene counts for about 100bhp! Ive had teenage nutters in 1.2 Corsas giving me a hard time. :oops: Even if you blow them away on the straight they still come back for more! lol Although Im pretty sure Freds is the fastest 1.2 16v in the club.

172 spoiler and lowered. Nice little replica.

Cant believe how dim those standard side lights are! Look a bit daft next to the xenons

Nah the 172 insurance put it out of reach to most t*ssers! Like the VTS or GTi They aint many Chavd up Saxos that are real VTSs.

Only Valvers and Williams are worth talking about! RTs and RNs are even more weedy looking than a mk2 1.2 8v non sport

The 182 hasnt got a spare (nor has the 172 Cup - although it does have the well) both 182s and 172 Cup have foam cans Its not the back exhaust that gives the 182 extra power over the 172 its the manifold.

Actually my Cup has only done 5000 miles and Im noticing signs of wear already!

Lovely. I still think the Micra is the best runabout though

Silvervisions,clear side repeaters, 172/182 Cup spoilers (if theyre easy to get there) would look great. CTR aerial is a neat touch too. Do the standard discs look tiny on them wheels? Im betting OZ in too hot for an open I/K lol!

Mike172sport has 182 (grey) wheels on his 172.

See GeeUKs old car. Same car as yours a tastfully done. Any pictures Gee?

Wheels are from a 2004? Maybe we got em later

172 Cups only had Climate control as an option towards the end of 2003. Along with silver paint and a 6 disc changer. The 182 Cups have standard AC like the lower clios. The Cup is slighty lower and stiffer, has a wider track due to the turinis and is 80kg lighter than full fat. Less sound...

Mine is left too. Didnt Jon_r get his sorted with an expensive laserline setup thing?
