I've had the Cup, coming on a year now. The upgrade wasn't really an option I dreamed of considering, as I was 20 at the time. Turns out the insurance was only £60 more a month, something which I could afford. The day I got it, I hadn't even sat in a Clio sport, let alone driven one. So other...

Yeah, aparently so. Has enough 'bounce' to not rattle about, and driven down to Glasgow and back, and is still sitting in place. I forced a thick peice of metal wire through the center of the cork, then wrapped it around itself underneath the mount to keep in 100% in place.

Couldn't agree more with the lowering, my next mod once my next mod hassle-free insurance starts! Also, I fixed the exhaust right after I took these pics, the exhaust mount had perished, so put something in place for the moment that holds it up in place nicely (being a fat champagne cork =p ).

...and a bonus picture from the day I bought my Cup. My 1.2 Dynamique and and Cup together for the only time ;)

Hella' ironic if it caught fire accidently and your insurance company decided to check this website ;)

Purely cosmetic stuff/easily sorted. Just inconvinient. Got it at a steal price too. It looks like it just drove out of the showroom now.

My mum's 1.4 does 29.9mpg. No typo there, and man is it slow. Flooring it in second or third gets you nowhere, and sounds like one of those little motorised cooing fans when you have your hand cupped round it.

Dear Derek, my Cups previous owner, Thanks for leaving chewing-gum under the rear passenger seats. Nothing turns me on more than having to use my mothers Marigolds to peel it off on a Saturday morning. Also, any chance of the front splitter you managed to rip right off the bottom, still leaving...

take your foot off the accelerator ;)

Car's looking good mate! Thought about some ph2 rear lights instead? It'll break the colour down a bit, especially if you plan on colour coding. The good thing about your colour is it should be fairly cheap to spray, just do as much of the prep work yourself beforehand!

Your premium is £1594.54 Eh, thats with a £1000 excess people. Think I'll stick with directline for my 172 Cup. £1049, 21 with no NCBs

How much is that lowered by? Also, loving the front plate. There would be no chance of getting away with those up here- too small a town.

I'm with directline: £1045. Thats with 3 years driving, No NCB's and a 172 Cup. Im 21.

They are around £14 from Renault.

When I bought my Cup (used), one was laquered and the other was not. I'm not sure which I prefer to be honest. Luckily, my dad owns a cair paintspraying garage, so when I have time, I'll re-spray and laquer the other, along with the engine cover I aquired from my mates written off 172!

Dave PM'd me asking for a few more, so these are the only others I have of the car. As I said to himself, the wheels aren't 'hard' to clean, just a pain in the ass =p The brake dust just rubs right off, as you can see by the 'CLEAN ME' pic. With a decent toothbrush of a handy shaped peice of...

These are 16" in white. The 17's just look disproportionate IMO, the spokes being longer. Plus, it's not worth an extra £200. edit: Don't get white ones. I have 2 toothbrushes, one for my teeth, and one for these wheels. Dirty; 1 hour of toothbrush action; The pain is worth the gain.

That's actually quite smart. They're not as 'black' as I thought, so wouldn't look too out of place on another colour of car.

My driving instructor never billed me, reminded him twice. Oh well, 3 years later. Just waiting for a bill to show up on my birthday or something.

This picture is actually only 40% of the original size. Taken on a very expensive Olympus camera. The quality of the original is immense.

Cheers mate, I also have 16" Superturismo WRC's to complete the white look.

Mine started peeling away on my old Dynamique, so glued it back on. Not sure about a part number though bud.

Very nice! How did they have the right graphics and that, did you take down an example or what?

Heat up the glue with a hairdryer, and twist while pulling. Don't saw it, as you can probably get a good £25 for it off ebay towards your new one!

Insured at 19 for £941, without any no-claims through elephant. Shot through the roof when I declared alloys, exhaust and viper kit.

My mates mum has one. Fooking gorgeous, and the car looks ace too. Has recaro's. She works for Renualt, so probably got it cheap too.

My dad owns a paint spraying shop :)

Yeah, the picture of the sport wing is deceiving. It's actually alot wider than the standard one near the bottom, so no chance of your skirts overlapping.

the 2 skirts are different prices if if I recall correctly. One is 111 plus vat, the other is 80 something. Not too sure though. I suppose you could cut your skirts to match the angle? But most likely wont look neat.
