You didnt blow a tyre though ;)

+1 Anthracite would go best with it.

That looks like Petrol Blue to me, which is VERY rare. Only 29 registered in the UK IIRC. Well its either petrol blue or a crap camera ;)

I only ate 2 of my donuts :)

It's ok, they'll charge him to let him go home

I'm Tom and i've got a 197

Fitted them myself with the help of my brother (He's an Audi Mechanic). Wasn't too hard a job to do, the hardest part was getting the old ones off.

The eBay ad title was: K-Tec Racing Renault Clio Mk2 Sports Suspension Kit Had both springs and shocks.

Haha! They definately arn't recaros. I can't remember the make of them but my mate bought a cheap set to go in his Land Rover: Also, remapped to over 200+ brake lol! Id love to see the dyno results :P

I bought the springs from auction by K-Tec on ebay, and as its been over 90 days the page has been taken down so unfortunately i cannot link you to them. I bought the side strips from a guy on here who sprayed them for me, cost me £35 for both sides IIRC.

I lowered my 1.2 by 35-40mm and it does make a very noticable difference IMO. I got springs and shocks from KTEC and it handled so much nicer with them on. It may not have been really low but i still liked the way it sat. Here's my before and after pics of lowering my old one: Before...

Woo! I haven't had a doughnut in ages! (Really surprising for me :cool:) 1. Dan. 2. Will' 3. Matt W 4. Bux 5 .Jim 6. Monkeyknifefight 7. Mr_P 8. Westicles

Haha! This gave me a big sense of deja vu... My old car (not a rep but a slightly modified 1.2) is up for sale as a 182 rep...

That is crazy insurance prices! I agree with what the others are saying, keep the 1.2. You wouldnt really notice the difference between the 1.2 and the 1.4.

As far as i am aware, the non-sport colours are the same as the 172 colours, but the 182 colours are different. For example, Non-Sport - Pearl Black 172 - Pearl Black 182 - Black Gold

Scam. I searched google for and it comes up with a load of other pistonhead adverts with that same message and similar email addresses, and most of them have been withdraw by pistonheads. This one hasnt as its only a day old: http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/2447600.htm

Same, I'd like to have one of them on my bedroom wall, it's looking rather bare at the moment. They look utterly awesome

You're welcome :D Also, I agree, it will look sweet!

Low: Slightly Higher:

Looks awesome mate! What changes you making?

Wow! Congratulations mate!

Looks awesome mate!

mmmm... that does look tasty

They say a picture paints a thousand words, so here's a thread with pics of the last one! http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?533589-Cliosport-Car-Park-amp-Clios-on-track-at-AJEC-Performance-Day-Combe&highlight=performance+car+action

Very nice looking cars there!

Ive had mine 3 weeks and i do this :cool:

Good point :cool:

I would have thought putting a 172 engine in a 1.2 would cost more than just buying a 172.

Ive had my 197 for 3 weeks now, and I came from a 1.2 too. It does feel like a big step up, i even scared myself once or twice by how fast it is haha, but now i've had it for a few weeks im used to it and feel more in control. You'll love it!
