I suppose depndant on how you look at it, it can either be a good thing or a bad thing! As per above, if the appropriate receipts are present (ie all work done) Then why not, a brand new engine? It should run with no problems for plenty of miles to come.

Maybe a high mileage mate, but thats not to say you wont get a well serviced looked after one for that money, mines is a 2001 "y" plate with 46k, got her for 3.8k (needed cambelt)

This conversation is going no where, if its black then someone will almost say white. Block?

Whatever pal all im saying is im not going to be subject to scrutinisation from someone doesnt even own a 172. The 172 is fast and it is faster than a few cars going. But i dont remember saying its the fastest car in the world. IM not making it out somthing its not, every comment i make is my...

Mmmm alot of brave chaps out there, taking 57' + 08' cars on a track? lol I just couldnt for the fear of introducing it to a barrier!

You have to forgive me for not agreeing to what your saying for the pure and simple reason that you dont actually own a 172 clio. You honestly think a 2.5 TDI A4 could beat a 172 mid range? Jog on!!! Ive fucked so many im thinking about putting a "bye bye TDI" sticker on my car... Please...

Every time i hear people "modding" 1200cc or 1.5 dci's i always think whats the point. Theres no substitute for cubic capacity...

The alarm on mine is a pain in the arse, when it goes off i dont know how to get it off! Ph 1 also!

This is ridicolous!

Id go for the fabia mate, easily re-mapped for 200bhp and itll still give you well over 35mpg! Failing that Seat FR of some sort the TDI's have proved time and time again. Or if your feeling flush, Astra 888, 240bhp :D

Sorry but, who cares? lol There's f**king loads, there not individually plaqued are they>>?

Sorry has the cambelt been done?

Do you own a 172? Your very half empty mate, they do say its 5% the car and 95% the driver, ive shown many a Audi, Bmw driver what renaultsports are all about.

Think the Twingo RS will be the one to watch for!

Re: Milltech Exhaust on 172>? Wheres that from? Full system?

Do you always believe what you read? @ 290kg's heavier? 1600cc>? It makes 175bhp yes... I have to be honest mate i reckon id muff a 207 gti. My saxo VTS fucked all sorts of Pug's the 207 GTi included, im going to look out for one:evil:

Theres a website dedicated to Civic Jordan owners thats a pretty sweet set up, plus they have listed how many have been written off... I suppose its quite a good idea to find out where they all went but you can never track them all. Thers always some old guy that bought one years ago as a...

I suppose we will know whether she beat you or not cause you wont mention it again lol

Mmmmm, trifle lol

Have any 172 owners got Milltek systems on there cars? My brother got one fitted to his Fiesta ST at the week end and after hearing and feeling the diffrence it made its really tempting me to go for one myself, so i asked the guy how much it would be i think he said around £700-800... After...

This is a bit of an assasination of the senses! lol

I have a blue t-shirt can i join your cult?

I just hope my clio is quicker lol, the shame of it!

Theres a few places in the Uk that will fully restore a 1600 or 1900 for around 6k. Ive seen there work and seriously you think they had a time machine to 1989! Think its the borders some where:eek:

I do apologise for the quality (camera phone) ill get some better ones up soon!

Its a double cat exhaust thats on the clio 172 mate, you may be shocked at how much itll cost you to replace! Welcome any ways mate!

T-Cut>?

I wouldnt bother mate, your saxo is what 100bhp? and does 0-60 in 9.0s? Why do you wanna get a DIEsel and modify it>? I hate to sound like an old moan but if you want somthing fast then buy a fast car! There is no substitute for cubic capacity! Buy a Fabia VRS!
