New car for me is a RWD Saph Cossie, hopefully getting one in Jan/Feb if I can find a nice one!
Chuck it on a Stage 3 and hardly anything will touch it....
If everythinng goes the plan (which it probably wont!) I hope to have a turbo clio (but not the Clio Im driving at the minute). Either that or a Cossie, but I dont like the idea of it always going wrong on me...

Mine is slightly different. The middle mesh (Big bit) is a sightly different shape. Also there is no bit at the top with mesh in. Ive just got a random gap..
I might be selling my prowler one in the new year. Looks strikingly simelar, mesh is a bit narower and wider in the middle.
Ive had it nearly a year, and Ill get it sprayed any colour you want, never been pranged or anything. Also will get all the little chips out, so it will be like new. Its...
In my experience (somebody please correct me if Im wrong) but a 5dr lowered the same as a 3dr on its torsion bar, will sit lower (to look at anyway) It might be an optical illusion with the rear doors, it might actually be lower, or I might be just talking b****cks!
When I had a car full I got...

I can have a car full. The bottom of the arch comes to about an inch over the metal of the alloy (If you get me? lol)
I measured the distance from the botttom of the splitter to the floor and it was the length of the metal bit of my ignition key from the floor! It looked good, but I have never...

Any more views on its value? I dont want to be ripped off thats all...
My alloys are BK alloys not 16v ones (just read what i put above and ive worded it like my alloys are off a valver...)
I was thinking around that maybe.....
Has anybody else on the boards got a clio with a R5GTT conversion? Whats it like to insure? Will many companies touch you because of the engine swap?
And if I buy it my Terminator front bumper, 16v interior and alloys (5 of) with tyres will be for sale...
I know a lad selling the following Clio soon, and Id like some opinions on what people think the car is worth please!
The car was originally a K-Plate 16v.
Now it has an R5GTT turbo engine in running around 190bhp. Lots of chrome bits and colourful hoses.
A flip paint job
Half leather...

Within reason you can get any wheel on any car if you have the time money and expertise to do it.
Im sure you could fit a set of 19s on your car with highly extensive arch modications (and new fabrications) if you wanted to...
By the way the launch in that video is done in Second Gear!!! Imagine how fast that car is!
Heres another of it http://www.phil-m.com/Racetek/gig2.wmvhttp://www.phil-m.com/Racetek/gig2.wmv
Also ALS puts monster wear and tear on your exhaust and engine. Ive heards of rebuilds every 5000 or so miles are not uncommon. (But not alwys the case)

Ive had (and still got) my 1.2 Clio. Gonna be getting a Saph Cossie early next year when the weather picks up again. Im going to keep the Clio though, and in the long run look to either put a GT Turbo engine in or a 1.7 Volvo turbo engine in, but keep whatever I put in fairly standard for...
