Do you think itll fit a Vee ... spoiler and brake light are different from 172/182? :p :p

Black one at Bristol Street sold quickly ... tho it did have a paint defect which was why it was cheap.

Im actually having more of a problem with BMW and Audi man in the Vee. Local BK/McD/KFC boys are interested and want to ask questions - even the chavs are my local convenience store wanted to talk about the car. Get plenty of other positive points and waves and thumbs up from other Clio...

(I know its a pointless post but ..) A number of unsold Acid Yellow ones sat in dealerships around the UK ;)

Ahhh ... all makes sense now :D :D

Knew you were moving Day ... but hadnt realized it was this way. Cool :D

And a Blue V6 too :D Born and bred and still live in Hedge End. Had silver 172 Mk1 (now fUbArs) until I got the Vee. Is a black 172 Mk2 just a few doors down from me; a blue 172 Mk2 just round the corner; then another silver Mk1 and a silver Mk2 within the surrounding square mile. Not many...

Getting warmer ... not Oz but at least the right neck of the woods ;) 172 owner from NZ in this thread ... http://forum.cliosport.net/display_topic_threads.asp?ForumID=2&TopicID=150457&PagePosition=1clicky <---- :devilish::devilish::devilish: The number of the beast...

Certainly are (or have been) some 172 owners from Oz whove posted. In fact reckon somebody posted in the last couple of weeks about problem theyd had (broken / crashed) and they were from down under tho I cant find the post - of course it might have been a post that you made :confused:

Wotcha :D

So for a while I was going to get a Silver Mk2 until in the end I changed my mind (twice) to end up at Illiad :oops: Id collected a few Silver Mk2 pictures ... cant be doing with posting them one by one so theyre here instead ... http://home.btconnect.com/andynet/ForSteve.zipclicky

Didnt wash my car so it looks like a rally sl*g ... and only found one excuse to go for a short drive in it ... tho we went "the long way". In fact the short way is a no go now due to the 20 mph limit enforced by extreme speed bumps. Instead I got to challenge my vertigo by messing around at...

Yeah ... clearly some dodgy mechanic has messed around with it previously ;) *Ahem* ... used a nail and it was how many degrees out on the timing :p

Yeah ... reckon thats not a bad price! And 20k miles over 18 months isnt stupid or anything.

Howdy mate ... lovely looking car :D

Missed a step above ----^ :p [Edited by Andy D on 24 March 2005 at 12:33pm]

Yep ... I wash the missuss car. Is the "cost" of me being allowed to wash mine. However, her car is a Citroen C8 7-seater and hence f-ing massive. Took me 4 hours the other weekend to wash and polish it. Dont show in the same care and attention as mine tho ;)

Ditto with my Titanium 172. Looked good all the time. Indeed I seriously contemplated an Silver V6 (rare in a Mk2) ... but decided in the end that it was just a little bit "too bland" for a Vee.

90 :o But looking pretty good for it even if I do say so myself.

Which was why I was so gutted about mine yesterday. Crawled out of a tight space (well for a V6) at 1mph ... no noise ... no vibration thru the steering wheel. Thought Id got out fine ... until I noticed otherwise last night :sick: Fred ... assume its a case of getting the wheel to you ...

Howdy mate :D

Must admit Im VERY glad I didnt go Black Gold on the Vee. A hard colour to start off with + loads of horizontal surfaces on the V6 that you dont get on the 172/182. Rather than running off the water simply sits on the sides / sills / bumpers ... and dries in muddy puddles :cry:

With all the other V6 owners here! I bought the V6 because it stirs something inside you - its not about rationality and facts and figures!! Thats why it tends to produce extreme reactions - the "its the best car ever" from those who connect with it - the "overpriced and not fast enough" from...

So any UK source of the PakShak clothes? Their web-site is off line at the mo. Any easily obtainable alternatives?

Howdy mate ... welcome to the club!

Been getting waves/thumbs up off most of the 172/Cup/182 owners Ive seen in the last week. Had a Mk1 owner literally trying to leap thru his window when he saw me on the way to work today :oops:

Howdy ... and you need to be a paid up CS member to be able to post on For Sale.
