RENAULT [Edited by lagerlout1 on 09 September 2005 at 12:57pm] Oh and I think you need to mod/replace the boot struts to stop the spoiler foulling when you open the boot. The Clio trophy boot only opens to a rather dangerous eye level. And see the little green light on your keyboard next...

I bought mine from newcardiscount.com It was a pre-reg UK dealer supplied car. I got it for £12k. The closest a dealer near me would get was £13.6k, so essentially I saved £1600, or £2600 off list price..

lol... that looks nothing like it!! From memory, its more like this... http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y72/lagerlout1/DSC00418copy.jpg

Ive been quoted £180 t o have my bumper resprayed, which considering I paid £60 for a sh*t repair I thought was a good price. The place Im using did some inurance work on my moms Scenic, which is like a pearlescent metallic, and they did a superb job on it. Really impressed - they happen to be...

It wasnt until you bumped it ;-) I can stay below 3k rpm in my 172 and overtake a 1.2 16v. In fact, my 21 speed mountain bike would give one a run for its money. I could piss faster. *bait deployed*

Yup, idle is poxy on all RSs. All cars benefit from frequent oil changes. Steering is hydraulic iirc. The Cups are quite twitchy as standard. [Edited by lagerlout1 on 08 September 2005 at 7:19pm]

:cool: mmmm bilstein..mmmm

Head gasket? the mayonasie is usually coolant/water in your oil. Not a good sign.

You no like? they look like they might be refurbs - not quite as bright silver as new wheels.

LOL!

Im positive they will. May be more expensive mind.

I have more trouble 2nd to 3rd tbh.... especially whn being a bit enthusiastic. i put it down to the driving position though. To get sat comfortably behind the wheel and farenough away from the pedals, I have to stretch to put the car in 3rd. Crunches like buggery. I think I may also be...

I would say 8k should get you a good average miles 53 plate 172.

Theres a set for sale on here.... Im making some enquiries...

lol. Yes Boss!:D

Thats what I wanted to hear!! Cheers fUbAr!! Im not too fussed about appearance - just want less body roll!!! Whats the ride like? the roads round me are shocking, so I dont want anything too harsh.... [Edited by lagerlout1 on 08 September 2005 at 2:19pm] Just saw your post gaz. So...

cool, cheers dude. There has to be someone on here with them on their car thogh??!! Theyre not the cheapest springs in the world... is it worth the extra money over say, apex?

Very Neat that.... but where do you put your Golf clubs?

I certainly wouldnt pay £12,500 for a second hand one. id paints or not. You can get new Trophy for £13k¬!!

How do you find them over standard? What sort of price are they? Worth the money?

I see a Racing blue most days, and tbh it looks stunning. Really stands out from all the other the cars on the road.

1.2 16v shoot out anyone? I can probably get a dis used airfield for an afternoon. Ill take the missuss 1.2 16v. Best get a K&N and an Ecotek fitted if Im to stand a chance.....LOL Seriously, considering the engine size (which is nearer 1.1 iirc 1149cc) theyre decent little motors.

surely the back brakes dont do much work anyway.... theyre only piddly little discs....

:cool: Some fast f**kers in there!! Neil and Chris must have f**king stonking engines in their Cups. iirc, the only mods are induction, zorst and Rsport. f**king ace!!

lol! As long as I get a good deal (its a 3hr drive!) I dont care if you get a cut!!

1110 kg according to Renault blurb. Fat b*****d things lol. Cup is 1021kg.

Oo00h theres another one... Thats five now I reckon... Lagerlout1 eves The Bear rich172 EVOgone

Looks like we need a group buy on the 182 surround too .lol.
