Got the v6 out of the garage this morning to let it run for 20 mins etc and there was a cracking sunrise bringing out all sorts of yellows and golds in the paint, so thought id get a few pics... then i got carried away lol :)
love that one ^^^^^ :)
strange one, ever since i did ios 5 last week, missus is still on 4.35 but has synced her phone lately, just not bothered to update,
when i plug in the phone windows says "lou's iphone" instead of "cols iphone" even though it shows up correctly as cols iphone in itunes?
cant seem to find any...
Hi all,
Been running a 1.2 dynamique since may as a daily while the vee sits tucked up, but have seen a 182 for sale just up the road from me, car is actually sitting at a small used car dealer but is for sale privately,
So phoned the guys dad up (lad has gone to Australia for 6 months)...
While it was out of the garage today i got a couple of pics, cant believe how much this colour gleams when its detailed up! Its almost like a candy apple red, :approve:
One month of tax left until its SORN until april, arrgrghh lol
Out for a drive with the missus and found an ideal photo spot! didnt have the digi cam (doh) so they are just on my iphone, but i thought the scenery was awesome with the vee in the foreground!
Mum and dad have had this 18 months now and its just such a good car! Aside from a new gearbox under warranty after 3-4th syncro failed, its been faultless!
Its "comfort spec" i.e no recaro's or cup pack...but on our local potholed roads thats a godsend!
Currently on 13k and getting...
...got my private plate transferred over today! just need the nice weather now to take it out...stop hogging all the sun down south!!! :( Just taken on my iphone so nothing spectacular
and all tucked up away again ready for the sun to come out (sometime never)
Picked up my mars red from alex in edinburgh on friday, it feels soooo good to be back in a clio v6 again,
met up with IainT when i was up there for some pics and he led us out of town, The recaro's are sublime i forgot how nice they feel, it turned 22k on the way home though :( its been...
dont laugh guys lol, need a cheap to run and buy / insure second car while the vee is SORN'd through winter..
have spotted one online near me its a billabong 16v, i presume this is a 1.2, only concern of mine is it has a sunroof, are these known to leak or be problematic?
how much are 1.2...
Mum and dad have owned their 200 since new January 2010 and it's been Graunching into 4th for a week or so, so after a visit to the dealers it's going in on Tuesday for a new box under warranty, they said that's the 3rd one they have changed so far! Ouch!
Also worth noting is that mum and dad...
After 3.5 years I've returned to clio's with v6 number 3!!
Since my last one I've owned a TT quattro sport (240) an M3 cab (e46) a tuned meg r26 and a mk5 r32 but the urge to return got too much!
So in 2 weeks time I pick up my 255 in mars red from Edinburgh, sure some on here will know...
Had this around 9 months now, fitted H&R's and the 19" talladega wheels from the mk6 .R....the exhaust is standard (and would never change it sounds unbelievable as is) but i have fitted 100mm tips onto it for a bit extra visual effect :)
AFAIK the colour (shadow blue) is pretty rare on R's...
Owned it for 7 months now, and in that time, ive fitted a forge FMIC with K&N panel filter, its been stage 2'd by RStuning in leeds so it flies along nicely now..the torque is great!!
Also just last week I fitted my k-tec exhaust system, which is brilliant! quite loud lol... so anyways, heres...
we just picked it up on monday, need to get some proper pics but this will give you the general idea :)
wheels are R26 18's, they make the car really, much better than the OEM 17's...which are gash :(
Has anyone done this and are there any problems?
I have a brand new set of 8" x 18" Megane 225 graphite wheels and was wondering which tyres to fit onto these in order to fit the whole lot onto a brand new Clio 200 (non cup model)? If anyone has done this can they tell me which size of tyre to...
was wondering why nobody has specced these yet...the only pics i can see of a 200 fitted with them are on the 200's website..they look far nicer than the standard 5 spokes or the speedlines IMHO....
not been on here for a while...few of the old names may remember me (hi christopher u still got the RB??) lol used to own a 172 cup then a mk1 vee then a mint mint mint mk2 vee, this is what im driving now...fancy a go in a clio 200 though lol
was standard when i bought her, only colour combo...
what a difference!! looks a new car now and handles so flat! also got the KW rear tie bars so i could get the camber and everything all set-up perfectly
few crap pics...nice n low :D
:)
what a fantastic car....extremely quick when the turbo boosts up...and thats before any tuning!!!! definate grin factor all the way..and probably the nicest driving position ive ever sat in! :)
already ordered fully adjustable coilovers for it.. :rasp:
so easy to go fast...didnt realise...
removing my recaro's now and the passenger side seat belt holder at the bottom which bolts onto the sill with one large bolt...has worn off its torx shaped bit...and appears extremely tight..leaving me unable to get it out using methods i can think off....:(:(
anyone else had this...
the list spec i want comes to 18395 lol...now i know nobody ever pays list...but what kind of price should i aim for the following..
197 FF
recaro's
climate
xenons with auto lights/wipers
cup chassis
glacier white
i was thinking maybe £16k...ish???
:D:D had it back for nearly 2 weeks now...but the weathers been that shitty and cold ive not had a chance to wash it all etc
so nice to have a car without a stonechip or anything...im hang back along way from other cars to make it last lol!
i bloody love this car....i cannot make my mind...
