Well obviously all these oil burners you talk about aren't standard. Modify a clio and it will be a different story again. A 172 Cup will beat a standard 120d and a standard 330d!

You've not been in a 172 / 182 before have you. A 120d will not be ahead at any stage (my dad had one). Never had a play with a 330d, but have against a 535d, it was fairly close, but I was ahead in the end.

All 172 cups are corkers (especially those that have just passed the 60k mile mark - well run in you see)

No idea, never been there. I have done 135 with 5 people in the car (on a private road of course), and it was still going.

Think they are all quoted as being the same, about 140mph.

Like you said, you'll have a company car for your commute, so a lot of your mileage will be done in that I'd imagine ;) I am in the same boat, do a lot of motorway miles to work and back, hence why the mileage is quite high. It is a good car for the money and does not need a thing doing...

As long as they are serviced regularly they are good for quite a few miles past the 100k. The main thing to worry about is getting the cam belit done at 72k or 5 yrs (mine has been done ;))

Yep - http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=187013 Quite a few pages there so to sum it up there is: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Renault-Clio-172-Cup-not-182_W0QQitemZ140076982683QQihZ004QQcategoryZ9861QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem and http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/sales/127291.htm Got...

Buy my 172 Cup!!! I have never had a problem with regards to the lack of ABS.

Think I have found it using http://www.karaoke-version.com/en/ It is downloading now so we'll soon see

I think it is Lemar - Time to grow she is after

Its a Lemar track I am after, while my gf's friend requires.

As the title really. Where can I download backing music?

Wouldn't it be a 172 if it was a 52 plate?

Nice! I have got a feeling that might be the new Vantage, not Vanquish, but I might be wrong. Wouldn't say no either way.

I too came from a new Cooper to a clio sport. As englebert says the mini was the overall better car. But just lacked the performance.

Mine is on the passenger side

Unfortunately it was at a special rate. An advantage of having an uncle as a sevice manager at a garage.

Got my 60k service + cambelt and MOT done for £204 the week before last :approve:

Mint!

I asked him bout the cat d and asked for more pics both of the car now, and of the damage. Also, as he said he mite be interested in a p/x I asked the question bout the clio. He replied basically saying no to the p/x and that was it. No mention about the damage or n e more pics. Was...

I quite like: http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/sales/117015.htm

This yours? http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/sales/114896.htm Been admiring that for a while!

That is absolutely gorgous mate. Fair play. Have been looking at them myself, but a bit out of my price range (for now). Prefer this one though: http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/sales/123383.htm Check out that interior ;)

I have asked for more info on the cat d. But if it has been up for sale for a while there must be something wrong with it, as its a bargain at that price. Has it always been for sale at that price?

Mine is for sale if you are interested mate. 2 k less miles, just serviced and MOT'd with cam belt done: http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=187013

7 grand with 60k on the clock!

They will normally ask for proof of NCB after you have taken the policy out. You usually have to get a letter from your previous insurance company detailing how many yrs NCB you have and forward it on.

When I was 20 the best I could find was with elephant - £1600. Directline wouldn't even quote me at 20. At 21 it dropped to £600 (with privilege). I had 4 yrs NCB. Any way, to sum it up. Elephant was cheapest for me when I was 20!

Next service should be 48k, not 50
