    i raced one and pulled on it slightly in a straight line, my clios far from standard though, a standard clio will be slightly slower. remaped astra, bye bye! they are fast when mapped, dont handle very well though lol (ive driven one!)

    engine conversion?

    the only reason id do a conversion is to NOT declair it if i couldnt insure the real thing, wouldnt be doing a conversion then declairing it. my mate pays £200 a year to insure his 1 litre corsa that some how wheelspins in 4th gear as it overtakes everything in its path lol

    Clio MK3 1.6 Dynamique S - Opinions

    ive only got experiance with mk2's but we have both a 1.6 16v 110bhp Dynamique and a 1.5 DCi 100 Dynamique. the 1.6 16v is faster overall when your screaming thru the revs, but around town the 100 is quicker due to all that torque and it has much less torque than the newer dci 106's which now...

    Engine Restrictions on new Clio 200!?

    my car was really well looked after and never driven that quick by the first driver i assume due to brakes being factory fitted one and factory fitted tyres at 20k, when i got it it wasnt as quick as id have thought, i put 30k of hard miles on it and now it FLYYYSSS

    Does anyone Know this car?

    crashed repair cars not my bag, more hastle than they are worth in my experiance, you get straight ones mega cheap these days anyway, id rather have a straight one with a snapped cambelt or something like that.

    Just picked up black 182 faults steering whinning stiff clutch pulling to left

    id suspect its leaked its fluid out one of the hoses, you may want to get it sorted soon before teh pump catches fire lol. other possibility is the aux belt has gone and been lucky enough not to take the cambelt with it.
