Exactly the same as mine except I have the 1.4, pick it up next week. Will be cool to see what you do with it

What I've done for the last year isn't exactly "fronting" as my mum has used the car a lot aswell, it's not the typical "it's my car but i'll put mum as main driver" case as they are clamping down on that kind of thing. I know a lot of people that do that but me and my mum have shared that car...

Hey everyone, this may help some young or new drivers. My dad recently told me about this as he's worked in insurance for about 25 years now. Firstly always ring up to get your quote and directly to the insurer. (you can use gocompare or something to find a base quote) Putting family members...

Alright mate, car insurance is a b**ch. standard. I've found the cheapest to be admiral, I got a £1350 quote in my own name on a 1.4 clio 2003. With a one year introductory no claims bonus. I passed my test last September at the age of 18 and have been driving a Fiat GP 2007 and the insurance...

Cheers, is there anyway to loosen it or extend it? If it costs lots then I'll just live with it

I test drove a 2003 clio 1.4 mk2 yesterday and I know cars feel different but the clutch seemed quite hard and quite short. Is this a problem? Im used to driving an 07 fiat grande punto which was bought new

not too soon as I don't pick my car up until next week now :/ (bloody investment accounts ey) and still gotta get to work on it. any good places?

Thanks JCC

Hi all, I want to lower my clio and put some 16" inch alloys on. How much do I lower it by and what tyres will I need on 16" alloys to not rub and keep the speedo in tact. The car is a 2003 1.4L "Billabong" Clio and has the standard 15" alloys on with (what I presume) standard tyres. Thanks...

Ah cool, not too far. :O you can get the ferry to felixstowe :P lol

You north essex?

Hey man do you know of any clio meets in town or colchester? New front bought a 1.4 billabong black clio today woop!

Car now on hold as the person sold it to someone else who offered a bit more than me but didn't ask if I'd offer more first :/ Bit of a shame so now on the lookout for a 1.2 or 1.4 clio to buy :)

do you know how happy i would be with a £400 quote lol? on the age related thing no i havnt got one im having to buy a 1.2 this week as my quote for that is £1400. what is worse is that I have the money for a more powerful car but then my insurance quote is £6000 which i cant afford :/ when im...

How many Ipswich heads we got on here?

Sick looking car buddy!

Re: Southend Meet January 22th 2011 If mine is all finished by then I will come down for this as its not very far :)

Anyone got them? What are your opinions? They look nice and are quite cheap but I have no experience about them in practice

Thanks for that I didnt see the guides section as I hadnt joined the club but im on it now. Will probably do beginners guides for the site when I start work on it as some of them seem to skip parts and not be so in depth so I'm guessing there will be a little bit of trial and error

£1700 is just a little more than what im paying on a 1.2!! lol My quote for the same car as you was 6k! :(

The subs are a yes definately, and no its not a chavvy body kit, mostly subtle mods. Do you know of any guides to do this kind of stuff?

Hi, I hope this is the right section for this. I'm buying a standard 1.2 expression 16v this week and looking to upgrade the following: - Head unit with full speaker upgrade, 2 subs in the boot - New backbox - Induction kit - Lowering - 16" Alloys - Possibly bumpers and side skirts I havnt...

how are you finding the toyos? im looking to get some with some alloys next week as they are quite cheap

Hey all. Just signed up as I should be getting my clio mk2 this week as my project car. Looking for advice and guides about modding and electrics as I'm trying to learn by doing this. Also if there are any clubs/meets/cruises in the area let me know. Simon
