Woohoo! Loan is sorted, Cupra R is being Valleted today, picking it up tomorrow! Cant wait! Will have to take sone photos!

Yeah Tom1600, they are all nice cars, i think even the S model is a not a bd looking car, better than the golf in my eys. I certainly prefer the look of the Leon Cupra R over the Looks of the Audi S3 (old shape). Ok build quality and cabin trim will be a little step down from the S3, but im sure...

Yeah, but im not buying it to take on the track! Im buying it because most of my mileage now is either stuck in traffic or motorway miles. Ive had the cup for a year and i loved it to bits and drove it hard, but now i want something just that little bit more refined. Im still getting a quick...

They cant be as easy to curb as the Cups??? They stick out a mile from the rubber! Im always overly cautious when parking and always end up miles away from the curb. Will keep my distance in the R, dont want to spoil the look of those alloys! Going to get used to the car, and wait till it...

Yeah, got mine, 3 months old for £16,200 plus they gave me above book price for my clio, think Christmas is the time to buy! The guy went to see his boss, when came back he said he was surprised his boss gave it me for that price, it was for sale at £16,995. Yup its got Pzeros on, not looking...

Well, im afraid im jumping ship, ive just put a deposit down on a 54plate Leon Cupra R. The deal was too good to miss. Picking it up sometime next week. Its the 225bhp version, in Grey, with 1500 miles on the clock. Its also got smart nav fitted. Doesnt have the Recaros, but to be honest the...

Want to add a number 6 to my list! The Alfa 147 GTA with the auto delta tuning pack! Just because its balls out, crazy fast and sounds like nothing else!

1. 106 rallye mrk 1 2. Clio 172 Cup 3. Clio Williams 4. Lancia Delta Integrale 5. 205 1.6 GTi In no real order as there all good

I think everyone does. This is a clio forum so we morn when our cars get damaged. If we were on a Catsport.net forum, wed be morning the poor cat. I hate to see any animal die needlessly.

I hope you also drive slow enough for all those little flies, so they dont get splattered on your car! Im guessing you hug trees at the weekend? Jeez dude, animals stray onto the road, its a fact of life sadly. Doesnt matter how fast your going ive hit a pheasant at 40 in a 50 country road. It...

Well if the badger was badly injured id have put it out of its misery too! Although they are freaking viscious buggers! I was on a TA exercise, three of us running through a field at night trying to get to an OP. We are running through corn in the tyre tracks of a tractor and im the 2nd in the...

I hit a pigeon in a Passat hire car (thank god it wasnt my clio) I was doing around 70. The pigeon hit the big VW badge on the front and ripped that out, then proceed to bury its head into the radiator! Broke some of the trim off around the badge as well. Just goes to show that small animals...

hahaha He goes on to say about the Boxster and VR6. "Looking at the specs of these cars though, there isnt much in it between my RSi and those cars, my power to weight ratio is probably the reason for being able to keep up with them, with it being 115bhp per ton" What a clown! :p

Hurry up and get it washed!

When Autocar did a best fun car for under 15k (cant remember what the feature was really called but something like that) a few years back they had the MX5 first, the Civic type R second, the Cup third, and the i think either the VTS or the 106Gti 4th. The interesting thing was that the GTI and...

If you have a crash and youve not told them that you have mods, and especially if the crash is your fault theyll send someone out to look at the car. If they find that it is not as you told them, they will void the policy. They may payout to the person you hit, but theyll probably take you to...

Its only a few of quid more, and hell it says 97 (or 98 cant remember) on the fuel cap door, so i just put that in. If i ever get to a station and it doesnt have 97/8 ron i just put a tenners worth in and wait till i find a station selling it.

Ford Falcon V8?! :p What about a 350Z? Or a Clio V6. There the cars that most often get mentioned and compared on here. Or a Z3M, or M Roadster? The Roadster IMHO is awesome, but i understand its a car you either love or really hate.

Forgot to say it has lighter glass than the 172 as well. As the 172 has the light reflective stuff. Think of the Cup to the 172 like the M3 CSL to the M3, bother damn quick, and both great cars, but ones an alrounder, and the other is setup more for the enthusiast (thats how i like to think of...

Ok, so not so quickly!^^^!

Use the Search, this has been done to death. Quickly:- No aircon No leather No ABS No TC No Xeons Lighter by about 80kgs (thats like removing a heavyish passenger) Wider Track Lower (cant remember by how much) Better Alloys (IMHO) One off colour (although they then produced a...

A lot of 172 owners (and a few Cup owners) traded their 172s in for the 182. Hands in the air any Cup owners who will be trading in their 172 Cups for 182 Cups? I know i for one will not be, not because of price, but because of image and performance, and the love of the original Cup.

I remember reading a long term test review of the Cup in Evo. The reviewer took the Cup on a big group test at some circuit in England, cant remember which. He said that even though the Cup had been hammered all day long by all the road testers, the tyres and breaks did not look overly abused...

Maybe im the only one, but i dont like that colour. But you do so thats all that matters. Is it me or have you started 2 different threads about the same thing?

R32 against Cup shows the benefits of 4x4 as well, after the initial gain its pretty level from then on.

The focus RS agaist the Focus RS GGR 285 is pretty close, would of expected a bigger gap because of the difference in power, if you had 60odd bhp more than standard youd want a bigger winning margin. Guess its just struggling to put power down.

I get this, but it comes from the rear suspension! Sounds like a happy mouse in a Cheese factory! Super Squeeky! When ever someone comments, i just say. "its a Renault!"

I Live over the road from a borstal, or the home for naughty boys! They threw a conker through my hosue window yesterday. They are real little sh*ts. The woman that was on duty told me to call the police. But what am i going to say? Err, hello officer, i think a kid over the road threw a conker...

Any more on the rumours about Renault and Cosworth? Now a CLio cosworth would be special!
