ginger clio's not beans

you need to learn to slow down for speedbumps, I felt sorry for your clio down teeside park last night.....OUCH!!!

hey joseph was the first owner of mine, followed by mary, then jesus, get it right FFS!:rolleyes: Not worth £4k though, you could spend the majority of that on a supercharger and you'd have no contest, you should've thought wiser baked bean man!

It is probably worth circa £2500 with the belt done, maybe put it up for £2300 without it done, not saying anything but if they ask then that is why its cheaper theres £200 difference there, compared to the £4-600 you will spend on getting them belts done, leaving you with a potential loss of...

172 ph1, the way to save £4k for pretty identical performance :rasp:

the fronts arent a hard job, the backs are extremely easy edit: just serviced mine this evening, give it a run to work and back tomorrow and dwn to leeds on saturday, seems to be a tad smoother, although im probably imagining that to hide the 70 quid hole its left in my pocket :(

whats the mileage on it?

good precise driving there, I only watched first vid but it appears if you were infront of the st to start with especially on the more technical sections, you would pull a good few metres on him

if they are going to give you £3k against a car worth up for £3650 chances are your car is probably going to get put up for £4k There is a minter on here, if you join up you will probably see it in the forsale section, for similar money but only has around 30k on IIRC

al be down in my mates iceland grey saxo, doubt i will get to see you guys!

that is really good, its been nowhere really in 3 years, should look pretty cool on coils as well, good buy I know the feeling of wanting your old car back

I will do, going to service the car on thursday I think, once Ive spent £40 on plugs for it :eek:

will be meeting at scotch corner I reckon, maybe try and meet up with karl before as lack of sat nav means I will get lost!

diesel power and petrol power delivery are a bit different though ;-) although it should be more than 160 anyway :P

no thats at the flywheel mate!

yeah that is quite a good figure, they normally make around 155 standard IIRC, thats all Im hoping from mine this saturday

very true, once you've spent money on a car that isnt going to break down, does decent mpg, tax, insured and test, you've spent the best part of 12-1300 quid, and you may as well have just used the clio I love it, I know I have it stupidly low so it scrapes along the tarmac but sometimes I...

some people really havent got the idea of a sleeper on here, im suprised you havent been told to lower it on turini's, add a cup spoiler and splitter as well Looks awesome, maybe rub the wheels down to bare metal and let them rust away through the winter, or if you're going for wheel trims...

yep, rang euro car parts and they didnt do mounts for the 172, didnt bother ringing pagey's but thought feck it I want it fixed so ordered it and fitted it myself Its all done now, I think its created another problem for itself, either passenger side driveshaft, ball joint or bottom arm is...

couple of pics afterwards can be found here Geddes- clean your car! ha http://www.saxperience.com/forum/showthread.php?p=3804905#post3804905

done that before with my old vts, when it came back out it just seemed slower, good to get the mods done but its no point having it hiden away when I can drive it and enjoy it, all be it at a massive cost

I first started off using my mates Porter cable on my clio, it did correct around 85% but now I have my rotary I can get it to go pretty much 100% correction, I have done on my bonnet and it looks brilliant Best thing to do is start with a dual action and once you're more confident buy a...

I only ever go on to look at the studio, showroom , projects and resto's, CBA with posting stuff, I go up to a local detailing shop and get top advice from them, saves being flamed by some little internet geek on a forum If you dont want to answer the question, dnt rant on about the search button

my upper engine mount has failed on me last night, absolutely fuming about it but I guess its wear and tear, I will still be there, looking forward to see what it puts out, if its over 150 bhp I will be happy :D

not quite the case porter cable lol

Well Ive been doing some bits and bobs to my clio of late, coilovers, cup spoiler, wheels etc, and its decided to reward me with breaking 2 bottom ball joints and now an upper engine mount After ordering a brand new mount from renault for £70 Im ready to throw in the towel with it, I love it...

good read actually, sorted my otherwise Crap friday night out, glad you're getting it sorted though :)

Re: Ben_stevo172 - Supercharged Monaco 172 you need to apply some tyre gloss which should make the wheels look better :)

They look really cool mate, cant wait to see them on the car:D

never got chance to see this yet mate but the pics look awesome, it isnt official until you get your private plate on it ;-)
