^^^^^^^^^would a respray be any quicker lol

Sorted:oops:

I wanted a 1.6 16V as I thought fecking hell 110BHP is gonna shift in a clio! I then heard of the 2 litre mk1 now and thought bloody hell 2lires in a clio and 172 bhp, its not like a 2litre mondeo 130bhp engine either. After that I was absolutly hooked but wasnt in a position to buy one. Then...

absolutly fecking ditto!

As above the 2 are not directly comparable cars due to the massive price difference.

Just been quoted 220 by renault in Swindon! I then did a search! And found this was way too much. I was then put through to Renault minute and haggled it down to £140 if I supplied the air filter!. Bonus is that they fit my new ITG panel filter!!!!

0-60 7.5 seconds according to autocar 200bhp and probbaly 1.5 tons!

R sport check the cup vs scoob videos in driving tales, that should put you back on an even keel!

Back to the original post you could try meguirs scratch x

Just a bit! Esp as Ive got the swindon meet today but should be okay in the end!

I was buffing the cup earlier with a rotary buffer when the pad came off and the metal arm underneath continued to polish my cup!!! Serious cratches and chips:( Managed to hide well with blue wax stick and blue polish but will need a respray!

Bearing in mind renault forecast a 75% uptake on these packs it should have been a std/delete option not an upgrade!! [Edited by brazo on 17 July 2004 at 8:45am]

Can renault simply increase the hp and uprate suspension though? The suspension on my cup is a stiff as a board, i understand its even stiffer on a 182 and if it was to be even stiffer on the 192 then surely the ride would be too crashy.

So, is there anyone out there, who can see what I see in this car, a classic, rear-drive, mid-engined sportscar, with 255 bhp from a gorgoeus-sounding V6? Fantastic looks, awesome presence and, when driven in the way this layout demands, hugely fast in most situations. I have seen 155 mph so...

Extend your existing loan by 6-7k and part x the VTS against a new 182!

Camera locators are fine as the whereabouts of speed cameras are in the public domain anyway. It is detectors such as radar/laser that they want to ban bad news for the new road angel as it is integrated and all one piece!

The valver is a clio 1.816v, puppy was a pet name someone gave their clio, 172/182 refer to the bhp (din) 2 litre clio variants and cup refers to the lightweight 172 model

Thank god for small mercies another maxed poo motor bites the dust:D

Wait till yer 28 Lee;) Car is garaged, low mileage as I have access to a comapny car for 95% of my driving. It is hardly ever used so low risk I suppose!

Just about to pay the 740 and I thought sod it lets give elephant a go £556 WTF! And only another 50 quid for air filter, sports suspension and R sport chip!!! Should I decide to go down that route of course;)

:cry:

errh......... theyre all the same beacuse its exactly the same car!!!

How much do you want for the plate?

Cheers guys thought it werent too bad! Will probably check a few other companies. Admiral wanted roughly another £60 for eibach springs and a sports air filter Wouldnt insure me for front and rear strut braces though:cry:

Last year took out an insurance premium on an imprezza turbo for 800 wrote it off within 2 weeks and bought a cup with the payout! Admiral now want 740 for this years premium!!!! Sound good? Oh am 28 with no ncb! and the odd speeding fine!

Tis true was just quoting chapter and verse!

Ultimatly the cup has a slightly better power to weight ratio albeit 1bhp/ton so give it the same rubber well you do the math!

Chuck yer mate out, lose some weight and run it in for a few more miles and you should get 6.3;)
