i was around that at 19 on my 172, its living in scotland, less thieving scum = cheaper insurance

wish it was mine.

lol u wont get 200lbft from a dci80! more like 170lbft id buy an 86, they are awesome cars!

1.2 tce

just that bit stiffer and sharper, remember a non cup pack 182 will still handle on par if not better than a standard 172 and you never saw any of us moaning about them back in the day!!

of course you dont have to heel and toe it on your daily drive to the shops, im talking about performance driving, its part of owning a performance car, you wouldnt be driving to the shift beep when the engines stone cold, or hammering it over speed bumps, or wheelspinning everywhere as its not...

im not trying to make myself sound superior, ive said it before ill say it again, mechanical sympathy goes a long way. if more tried it, renault wouldnt be changing so many boxes. why do you think the new RS is going for a dual clutch auto, to stop all the ejits trying to do fast and furious...

twingo 133 and tce will use the same box afaik from factory.

yep will bolt straight in no problems, as mick said id go for retaining your current gearbox and linkage etc or make some sort of solutuion using the twingo GT setup. it will go well, my mate has a clio 3 TCE remapped running around the 130hp mark, and if caught off guard it will give my 200 a...

eibachs would be my choice but id also do fresh genuine dampers too, for all it costs!

dell motherboards are usually ok with CPU upgrades, a quick search on the dell forum though will usually confirm if your choice will be ok, id stick a core2quad in it, ive got a core2quad extreme edition in my HTPC and it still deals with everything i throw at it! but as said id be looking to...

must have been retro fitted, it was never available as an option and wasnt fitted as standard until 53 plate >

The problem is the box may not be quite as strong as some other manufacturers which can stand up to ejits that cant drive, the renault box wont last great if you are one of these ejits. learn to heel and toe and you wont kill boxes, i stand by this statement and have done for years, ive yet to...

nice upgrade, pitty its the petrol and not the dci but nice still the same. Whats ur plans for it?awesome cars dont feel that dufferent in feel to a 200 really.

nothing wrong with the boxes if you know how to treat a gearbox!

i know a guy that bought a 182 "with cup packs", i took it a blast and was really impressed with how it handled, it felt a good bit better (from memory) than my old 172 when it was standard (although it had been a few years since i driven one) and i was raving about how good the cup pack was...

ph3 cars got rear discs, so that will be an 04 plate onwords and a few late 53 plates. if its got the ph3 interior and front end it will have rear discs, not that they are much of an advantage as they just cost you in snapped handbrake cables and groaning rear bearings that the cars with drums...

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news i see the stereo may now have a fancy UI but it still sounds as equally pish as the Clio 3.

what was the script with the mk1's? 1.8 16v, normal 5 speed box with a diff?

i would have thought alcantara seats, soft touch dashboard and non poverty spec steeringwheel with cruise. but as said above other countries got different spec cars, i beleive it was AUS that 172's came with 15" wheels?

quite right buddy ive spent the last 7 years modding my clios and never declair a thing, the money i save over all the clowns who declair mods gives me more money to buy more mods.

Re: Recommend me some nice I phone headphones (in ear) really? my HD-25's have had daily use for the last 10yrs and been all over the world and are still perfect!

you need to get a video up of how that manifold sounds!

impressive, i like that!

im not so sure lol

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news aye straight from renault ill take it without a warranty if they give me 5k off it lol

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news glad they have confirmed dual clutch is an option, means its deffinately set to be my next car assuming it drives well and looks pretty good, problem with renault as usual though is a year after launch the original will be de valued and unwanted after the cup...

This angers me so much. i f**king hate the useless dealerships we have to put up with.

i was doing 500 miles a week in my 172 at one point, it coped pretty well until i got the DCi100 and it was like a bentley compaired to the 172 lol

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news i think financially it would be a bad move to offer both a semi auto and a manual, especially after spending a s**t load developing this new box, i hope im wrong but i cant see them offering a manual. given the cost cutting move of going for 5 door only for...
