    Why put on 15" alloys???

    they handle and feel much more responsive mid cornering on 15's even my 1.2 16v's i used to run turinis on the road and had 15s for track and going a blast

    1.9 DCI performance

    remap is about your lot as far as performance goes on it, probably gain 20-30hp and similar torque however you would be better just changing for another daily!

    TOYO PROXES R1-R

    I Agree with Sam, they are much better half way thru their life!, i always ran them on my DCi100 as they were a decent cheap performance tyre, fitted some to my PH1 172 to get it thru an mot and they wern't a patch on PE2's but they were also not far off a quarter of the price!

    Dynamique S 16V

    stripes look ok on it and the ones up the side, as you said though remove the sport badges and try and tidy up that exhaust! LOL @ 4k kick though!

    172 Owner - Worth while modifications...?

    personally first what id do (after spending a fortune on both my 172's) is new genuine dampers all round and eibach sportline springs, then new genuine track rods, track rod ends and you could go as far as i did with new bottom arms which include new bushes and ball joints but that was just me...

    removed the twingo badge and fitted some phillips blue vision ultra bright 501 sidelights today, no pics of the sidelights yet ill get some tonight! (im not into LED sidelights thats why i went for these for just a bit cleaner and brighter look than OEM) Uploaded with ImageShack.us

    Has your 172/182 been reliable?

    my 2 172s were 10x more reliable than my 200 was

    Just put down a deposit

    i tend to agree with most of what is being said here, generally as dan says with some/most performance cars, people buy them then either get bored and change for something else or realise it costs so much and change it. However with the clio 200 being the car that it is, most owners take a few...

    loads of them go about here, bit funny looking imo although a slammed & mapped dci106 one could be cool!

    Martin_172's Twingo GT TCE

    interior isnt too bad, simple and basic, no where near as nice a place to be as my GT DCi and 200 but no worse than my 172's were!

    Martin_172's Twingo GT TCE

    standard its just as quick id say as the DCi106, but it needs 6000rpm changes to match the same performance as the DCi106 doing 3500rpm changes, as the 106 has bucket loads more torque, but remember this probably weighs 200kg less, with a map and a big increase in torque it would definately be a...

    new mats fitted today, didnt have time to hover it, ill do it at the weekend! He ran a lower figure on run 2 which to me would say the turbo is at/past its limit and intake temps are suffering, but a slightly better turbo would give you more scope for power while still retaining low spool...

    Not a great start to 200 ownership, looking at upgrades to sort the throttle

    am i the only one who finds it retarded to get a remap to "cure" a fault that isnt the normal behaviour of the car? at least try adjusting your driving style or compairing another car to rule its not you first! lol

    i got my factory tyres replaced at 6000 miles (granted wear had been accelerated on one due to arnold clark) but my 2nd set were probably 1k from being illegal when i traded it in at 13,500 miles. Driven properly these things demolish front tyres, my original rears were probably 50% worn @ trade in.
