    I think I've done ok here! Bought my 172!

    Might want to take that strip of gaffa-tape off the number plate ;) VickyX had best organise another meet soon... Where abouts in Essicks are you ?

    Hi all!!

    Hi Kath. Welcome. First things first - ignore the sharks ! Secondly, the exhaust - in my experience, if the backbox has gone, the rest is soon to follow and to just get it all done in one go. Is it all original or has it been replaced at some point ? If it's all as it came out the factory...

    Tail Happy 182

    Ouch. :dapprove: I thought boxes were more like £2/250, not £400...

    think 15" alloys are too small?

    15's on a DB9 ? Stupidly small. Probably wouldn't get over the discs, let alone the callipers. 15's on a small French hatch ? Perfect. Lighter than larger wheels, tyres are cheaper too. 15's on a lowered small French hatch, even better. :approve: Don't go bigger than 16" on the Clio...

    Tail Happy 182

    Why a grand ?! It's not a Subaru. You're near Fred.. call him.

    Urgent (possibly legal) advice needed - 172 has just come back from mechanic...

    Not at all... Plenty of 172s on here for that price. £1500, you're in trouble. £2500, normal price.

    Frayz in his shiny bean !

    I thought it might be you when you came up behind me on the slip ! :rasp: Stu's wheels.. :nono: Good luck with the 'ring !!

    Car looks tidy dude.. I still can't wait to see the Batmobile when it's done !! :approve:

    Tail Happy 182

    Get some decent rubber on there .. ditch finders should only be spotted in ditches, by themselves. But also visually check the shocks for leaks. Failing that, push the car side to side at the rear, or open the door, step on the, er, step (!?) and bounce the car up and down. If it takes more...

    what colour should i get my OZ F1's done in?

    Here's an idea.. Do the mirrors blue to match the rest of the car. Silver is the only colour to have with a blue car. Black is a no-no.

    Clio first car project

    Nice smart looking car: Not a fan of the cat-D van look personally...: :dead: Tyre shine - it makes your tyres .. er .. shine. Very much needed with black wheels.

    Dr Jekyll's Cliosport Saturday Pics

    If anyone hasn't realised - you can click the pictures and get them from Flickr in full technicolour glory. Why bother emailing 4MB+ files ? Nice piccies, Dr. :approve:

    Adding extra speakers to 5 door mk2

    Never come across a JVC head unit that is even bordering on 'good'. Alpine or nothing for me. The standard speakers are just fine - as long as you can cut the bass to them ! Had a cheap sub in my ph1 Clio, HPF/LPF set up so the sub does the heavy stuff, and the standard speakers do the high...

    New Clio fan

    Welcome ! Different turbo, map, intercoolers etc... The mk2's are pretty happy with a map .. 130HP not difficult to achieve ! Presume the mk3's have something slightly different as they're 106 not 100, can't imagine they've designed a whole new engine to see an extra 6HP. Could just be a...

    Adding extra speakers to 5 door mk2

    The same power and (I'm assuming you've got the standard headunit?) awful Renault HU noise will still be going to them though... Aftermarket (Alpine, Pioneer) HU, then speakers, then amp if you need/want. All IMO of course.

    Adding extra speakers to 5 door mk2

    Possibly a really stupid question, but why do you want speakers in the rear of your car...? Decent set of components up front, amped if you can... job done.

    Ollie's CSS '11 photo thread

    What's the deal with the motorbike half way through that set ? Also a couple of cheeky shots of Ricardos' bus .. X--CDT - the white ph1 .. I thought he was on holiday !

    Nice ! East Mid Airport is rather close to the track IIRC !

    A bit of setup help ;)

    Weird. It's FWD .. of course it will understeer before it oversteers. Unless you've got ditchfinders on there, I can only guess some driving lessons are in order :rasp: Is the car full up or stripped ? Try dropping a couple of psi all round... the less weight in it, the less the pressures...
