    172 cup vs focus ST

    Have you even driven the ST? I personally don't like them either but i would certainly think they're quicker round a track the the Clio as is a lot of 'worse' cars, even a Megane RS. So why would it be any slower than a Clio on a 'country' road? I would bet my ass the ST is faster in just...

    172 Xenon/HID quality

    My 172's xenons give a cool blue light but then they aren't as good as my Mini's. To be fair the car is a few years old so i guess technology has moved on.

    New Reno Sport badges

    I bet loads of people change them, then in 10 years people will pay extra for the 'retro' badges ;)

    Zorstec Custom Zorst' - Opinions

    Had Zorstec do an exhaust of the NSX. Looked great but sounded crap.

    My subtly modded 172

    I can't fathom why you'd want 182 hub caps but otherwise looks in good nick :)

    Oh Christ wots the point in having a 182..?.

    Their service is non existant! Black Circles will actually help you. I use mytyres and their prices are often good but if you want reliability then don't use them.

    My new 16v Clio Turbo

    Shorter exhausts give more power. Sounds like a decent bit of kit but those 17s are about 30 years old aren't they? I'd get smaller ones, looks like a monster truck on a little Clio.

    New wheels

    I was thinking that... Nice wheels :)

    Oh, the anticipation.

    172 lookalike side skirts

    Renault had a kit for non sports including them.

    Strut brace on a 182 Cup

    A front strut brace will help because of the heavy lump over the front wheels but the car will actually feel like it understeers more.

    Clio 182 Reliability?

    My friends have 106s/Saxos and they have been worse than the Renault. If you are buying privately i would ask the owner about wheel bearings, airbag warning light, exhaust and top suspension mounts. Let them know its not an issue that all these things have gone wrong, the important thing is if...

    New Wheels - Stupid Question Time!!!

    Get the wheels shipped to you and just look in Yellow Pages or Yell.com for local tyre fitters. If you ring around you will get a good deal in comparison to the online retailers.

    to euro or not to euro?

    The wheels on the blue one is exactly how it should be! Very nice...

    Absolutely Raging

    Can't believe someone just left it. Thats disgraceful. Any CCTV around? Do only employees park there?

    clio 1.2

    That is what it is. The fix is to solder the wires together as mentioned in Edde's thread. Not sure where that is though...

    Backbox & Induction Kit killing power???

    Your mates could well be right. I doubt your backbox makes an positive or negative difference to be honest but i imagine in most circumstances an open filter is losing you power. Ideally the thing to do would be to invest in a remap that caters for the filter and exhaust.

    Why Do People Do It

    Lol. I bet that cost him s**t loads as well...

    A man in need of some advice....

    See if a member will do a part ex on the exhaust. I returned my 1.2 to standard but left the Turinis on it. Can't believe how many calls i got, a girl cried on phone after i told her it was sold, lol! You will make more money if you sell stuff seperate.

    to euro or not to euro?

    As Weeman says you will need the wheels to actually poke out of the arches (which is a MOT fail btw). Althuogh that Mk5 is not euro, too fussy! Need to remove the side strips, smooth foglights etc. A lot of money but if i had it i'd probably do a similar thing..

    182 turbod up

    From my perspective i wouldn't spend that much on a a little FWD hatchback but if you have the cash to splash then why not? Owning a Scooby driver would be priceless.

    OOOOH!!! to be low again :P

    See what Dan means about the wheels, looks like you need massive spacers! Otherwise, looks really cool with the old skool black rims.

    s3 vs 172 vsCTR vs FIAT COUPE

    I do agree with Tom that this forum is a bit pathetic when it comes to these constant comparisons, but the fact is most members are young lads so it comes as no suprise. I think you are somewhat misguided to think a CTR has a better image though. I hardly ever see 172/182s around so declaring...

    Meggy 225 vs DC5 vs VXR vs Golf GTI

    I would love a DC5. Couldn't give a crap if a Megane/VXR was faster with 'X' amount of upgrades, the DC5 driver would always be having more fun.
