Dunno if its standard Steve .. But from the outside its looks to be, its got all the standard outside trims/exhausts/wheels etc.. but even if it is, the guy driving is pushing that 172 round them bends and managing to keep the CTR going... Evenly matched motors.. Still good viewing though ;)

here guys and girls .... its an old vid but check it out http://media.putfile.com/Rallying-Clios

The only problem I see here is compaired to the VTR, they had to compromise top end speed in the VTS coz they altered the gearing ratio to give it the 0-62 time it has. so for top end speed the VTR and ultimately the 172/182 wins.. But there is a significant differance straight line power...

Thats why I posted it .... there isnt much difference as they look as though they're power to power round the track, but the guy in the clios out-performing the CTR round the bends and for the most part and you've gotta admit, hes flooring it on the outside and still managing to keep the pace on...

Your not on your own racing ... Halifax are quoting the same price for my first service too .... Mmmmmm, I might get that for free coz of their "nice" chip charge!!! lololol There is a plus to it .... they've got a FREE drinks machine !!!! pmsl

<<<----- wonders how quick and how long the coppers were chasing him for him to loose the license!?! pmsl Its a pity having to sell it... oh well, it'll be worth watching to see what it goes for too ;oP

Heeeheee .... Wanna know whats faster?? http://media.putfile.com/Renault-Clio-Sport-vs-Honda-Civic :race:

I did I took one on a test drive with my brother when they came out... For an extra 45 bhp its a quick motor.. Problem is we took it out on a damp road so stopping it from wheel spinning on power was a bit of a problem but its a solid car on the road and if I had the extra £££ I would have...

Shame you didnt take the picture with the manager in the shot.... Now that would've been nice to humiliate him too .... Burger and Fries anyone ???? :lolup:

Its a bit of a bad do that ... Even more so coz the 182's are decent motors, Always remember " Where theres blame " .... You cant go wrong :)

Good.. glad you spotted it this time, I'm glad I went in at night after the garage shut.... I would've been handing my keys back to swap!! pmsl ;)

This seems to be a comman fault with clios... I've NEVER kerb'ed my 182 but the steering wheels out already, mind you... My 172 and My RSi had the same problem, an off-centre steering wheel..

Ok .. scratch that .... Looks like the wifey's thrown it :nono: lol

shame I didnt see this yesterday.. I've got one you could've had for nothing :(

lol ... Now I am apologetic for NEB-CM- .... :( Its his thread and everyones going on bout mine now!! lolol All I can say is that I'm gunna try to see what the score is and undoubtably, they probably thought that the chip would make a difference.. ( shame they didnt remember the Megane Sport...

Ahhh . thats why the fat little fecker woz quick! lol ... They're known to be heavy but now I know why you pulled it quicker! hahaaaa .. Oh well, I take it in my stride, I know theres quicker cars out there and I'm glad it was fun! ;o)) Back to the good 'ol drawin board (scribble scribble)...

Seems like from Renault Halifax's point of view I'm driving a hybrid Clio sport/Megane 182 lol ... Chips Anyone??? lolol

If your not planning on taking it off and its permanent? How about car window or silicone sealant? Dont know for def... never stuck a spoiler on though

Glad I'm making folk happy ..... :)

I came across this about 9 months ago .... http://www.turbonator.com/index.html dunno how realiable they are or if it works but for the price they're asking for the hardware ... might be worth the money ...

I had nothing but problems with them when I had my 172 but I think that was due to the 3 year doomsday bit!! lol But it looks like the area managers on my side so thats a very good sign indeed .... I wanna be there when the heads roll and the storm goes down!! pmsl :cool:

Ok ... Update peeps let me FIRST appologise to NEB-CM- for nicking his thread last night.. :o For all those that were advised I got an upgrade "megane Sport chip", Today I went to Huddersfield Renault to ask them about the chip swap.. The guy in parts laughed, which was a good sign in...

It's right ... aint your fault... All my doins I tell yer.. Mine!! pmsl advice... dont do Renault chips!! lolol :D

yeah ... well, they charged me for it, so I'm assuming they fitted it too. I'll find out tomorrow if they havent or not, but if its damaged the workings I'll be having a "nice" chat with Renault UK

Renault, Halifax.. I'll get it checked out on monday. But I'll probably take it to Hudderfield coz they can give an independant on it, But I've had run-ins with renault,Halifax before with my old motor. Its right, no offence taken, I'm easy going me, but if it turns out to be false I'll be...

I've got a length of material in-between the cover and the car, that stops the "scratching" effect. I tie it down with bungee cords between the wheels so it stops people from lifting it. All I know is it stops people from keying the car and I've not had anyone touch it since I got it.

If I'm wrong about the increase in power then I appologise but I was told this by a different person that sold me the car. The car does feel quick and I have already pointed out that I could be wrong about it. Doesnt mean to say that I'm an idiot altogether, I was offered this as an extra and I...
