I was under the impression that it is the switch to over ride the cruise control that was suppose to be fitted to newer MK2 172s, but the switch comes on all of them.
For example, youd have your cruise control set to 50mph and if you wanted to accelerate, you would push the accelerator right...
Paddy - I think youve got an Internet curse on you! There have been quite a few downloads since putting them up, so it must be working for most people!
If you still cant get them Ill mail them to you.

Best in which way? Ive owned a 172 and a Williams, and seriously hope (and intend to) own a Cup at some point in the near future.
The 172 (MK2) is packed full of goodys, is fast and fun and handles very well if lowered (and rolls too much if not).
The Williams, as Craggy says, feels...
bambam - I saw you and the puntos racing just before I left. If Id have known it was someone form cliosport Id have videoed you.
Rhys
Edit - and yes, those Puntos were very.......yellow!
All from Santa Pod last Sunday

The download works fine for me....temporary glitch maybe?
I thought the Cup driver was doing okay. 15.15 is a good time and he did a 14.97 which is, erm.....even better! The normal 172 was only getting 15.8s
Rhys
Your call of course, Kathy, but I have to disagree. People always post 1/4 mile times on the General forum. If Id called it 172 vs VTS vs Cup it would have stayed on the main forum. This wasnt about a meeting, it was about my day out videoing cars at Santa Pod. :confused:
Edit - Just want to...
Went down with Craggy in his VTS. Other Clios there included a silver MK2 172, a Cup, a 16ver (didnt see it do any runs though) and an RSi. There was also a CTR there.
As for the times.....until the point that we left:
172 MK2 - lots of times at around 15.8 and a 15.6
172 Cup - 14.97...
The real question is, does the MK2 GirlRacer have different gearing and ECU to the MK1? And which is faster?
Oh, sorry.....got a bit confused for a moment then.... :oops:
The guy on this forum with the "Jap style" clio 16v has got is sprayed in a Subaru blue I think. The colour looks absolutely brilliant and suits the 16ver down to the ground.

Give Hillpower a call. Their de-cat pipe is about £75 but there is a very generous Cliosport discount (takes it to about £50)....dont know if it is silenced though.
Also the one above doesnt include VAT or shipping...
Rhys
Hmm....might go for a silenced de-cat pipe as suggested. Also, http://www.fastchip.nlwww.fastchip.nl do a chip for £230 that includes a basic launch control feature, programmable change light and full throttle gear changes. Says it is only for "Phase 1" at the moment, so Ill have to ask them if...
Reckon its b****cks apart from the psycological effect. Id rate it with Ecotek! I had both done to my 1.4 16v a couple of years back and both were a waste of money.
Rhys
Ive got some new 195/50 P6000s that are going on the car as soon as I get it back. Ive been driving round on bald tyres with slow punctures up until now. Cant wait as the handling is pretty spectacular on the slightly skinnier and totally shagged 185 tyres.....whats it going to be like when its...
Carlos - I can tell you early next week when Ive got my Willy back. It had a de-cat pipe on when it went in, but its having a new cat fitted. If it feels sh*te, Im putting the de-cat pipe back on.
It felt pretty good with the de-cat on, but it made an annoying buzzing noise at about 3000 -...
