wow, I drove past shaganappi just a couple of weeks ago on my way to the airport! Probably drove right past your street. Small world. I can remember because there's just something about that name....

If you're going up against a modern hot hatch such as the Fiesta.. Why not also go for a low boost engine rather than bodies? For 18k I'd be wanting heated seats and a great sound system as well. Not just a track car.

Great news, happy for you!

I'm massively relieved to hear you haven't been charged much as of yet, as I was going to make the same point as @Starlet_gt in my first comment but it was already dragging on a little. As you've tried to stress over this thread, there's a huge amount of work required, I do understand that...

Just scrolled back through this thread, it's been almost exactly a whole year since it got to Diamond Motors now? Something's just not right.

Don't come on this forum much anymore bit I like keeping an eye on this thread. Anyway, It seems like Mick is kinda taking the piss to be honest, there's just no way it should be taking this long. Not when the guy supposedly knows Clio's like the back of his hands and has got surely got...

Glad to hear it, enjoy! keep us updated chap Thanks guys appreciate it!

End of an era. The Cup went to it's new owner today ? Thanks to everyone who's offered advice and information on here, and I've made a few friends along the way! Been an epic car to own and will certainly find myself in another one in the future. James

Maybe get Satchell Engineering involved for the rear setup?

you're correct sir. Still blisteringly fast changes though, which lead me to believe it was DSG

That looks absolutely ace chap, the gold reflective tape is a great touch as well.

My apologies! Fair point!

Surely stud and nut conversion can be almost the last thing to be done? Shouldn't hold up progress, I assume it's just using normal wheel bolts at the moment?

Sadly my Cup is up for sale. Would love it to go back to someone on this forum who'll look after it and hopefully keep everyone updated on it! All details on the advert https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Renault-Clio-172-Cup/113028084597 Any questions, feel free to PM me. Cheers, James

Cheers, I Did a ski season there in 2016/17 and been wanting to go back ever since, it's a beautiful country and definitely worth a visit when you get the chance!

Thanks. Looking to take a break from the endless money pits that are cars. I'm going to Canada next month to work in the mountain bike parks. Will certainly be back in a Clio again once I'm back

The beginning of the end. The Cup will be up for sale very shorty, so I am slowly taking it back to standard ready for the next owner. Bit of a shame because in it's current form the setup was absolutely spot on. Everything just came together perfectly to make a truly awesome little car...

Recently went back to standard air filter after running a KTEC induction for a few months, it may just be the 'placebo' affect but I'm sure it feels a little slower now... Maybe it's just because there's so much less drama without the noise.

As mentioned before, Spoiler looks ace mate!

Awesome update!!

Was a good day dude, 182 looking on point!

Racing Blue is by far the best colour for 182s! Liquid yellow comes in second but can't justify the price hike on them

Looks mega mate! Also, garage goals!

Colour looks awesome! Only colour I'd have over my Cup

My friend had one of these, unbelievable cars! I think it was mapped as well. I was pretty jealous every time I sat in it to be honest, with the DSG box the acceleration just pins you back into your seat like no car I've been in. He had a full custom decat fitted to his and it sounded...

No need to buy one. I’ve actually just signed up on the Canadian version of Tinder, you just get matched up with local moose

That really sucks mate. What sort of person does something like that? The crash might have been an honest mistake but to drive off.... If that happened to me I'd give anything to get my hands on the perpetrator

Right from the beginning I felt like it was being blown out of proportion. Tenner says that box lives for another 10k.

They're by no means self-claimed Renault specialists, but from the work I've seen them do, I'd have thought they could do a belt change with their eyes shut. They fitted my cage, satchshift (same as PMS shifter) and did some re-wiring to my 106 GTi a couple of years ago. They had also built a...

Mick is deffo the go-to guy, but on the other hand, he's always super busy so you'll need to book well (weeks) in advance. Noble Motorsport in Chesterfield are a good alternative, really good guys there and their work is top notch.
