The best way to improve performance on a 1.2 would be to strip it, decat it, coilies, leightweigh alloys and the best tyres on the market. Obviously that isnt the best possible setup but it is probably the best cost v improvement setup. imo of course

Garmin all the way. I got my garmin nuvi 200 for £99.99 on boxing day this year and they're still £99.99 now, it hasnt depreciated atall :D couldnt recommend it more.

They missed "VTEC just kicked in YOOOO"

Gutted for you mate, was it his fault then?

The 306/106gti where suposed to be great. Would love to drive them.

Decat it, 1st thing i'm going to do when i get a decent car.

+1 on this aswell i realy want to hear a dump valve on one of these.

They remap to around 125bhp i think aswell. I'd consider a twingo gt as they're coming down a lot now. With a nice set of alloys and coilies it could be a weapon.

Looks like an awsome road mate. When i change my car next year i'm going to take a few days off work and go on a north-mid wales roadtrip.

Bloody hell, hot hatchs have a tough life though don't they because they're designed to be thrashed. I wouldnt buy a 175k 172 for more than a few hundred quid.

+1 rear splitter FTL

I think maybe you should go stealth mark. I can see why you get lots of attention. Its the ride height not an issue on track?

I've seen an 03 plate PH1 clio MTV, got a pic somewhere, that was weird.

You said you liked the torque at the warrington meet mate. Know what you mean though the lack of revs and awful noise it what puts me of diesels

Its risky losing the space wheel but nothing a car of tyre foam cant sort out. Good mod mate.

Whats with the dynamique alloys mate?

I'd let my gf drive my car. She's a rele careful driver. although likes ripping the rubber splitter of her mums dynamique on kerbs at work lol.

Because they're very cheap aswell. Good buy for a cheap runaround.

Ebay? Look for someone breaking a 172, not sure if its the same colour as other clio's

buy a second hand 182 cat?

+1 It must have s**t loads of grip to do that without just understeering. I've seen clarkson do that in a 182 aswell. evo magazine actually says "the most fun you can have on three wheels..." about the trophy

I recon my 1.2 would maybe the slowest if i went. Mind you i'm sure CorsaB club or something have been there with there 1.0 Envoys with 5" Exhausts and done worse.

It will be the best thing you can do for the car mate. Its the only thing that lets it down.

Y didnt 197's come with xenons when the 1*2 did? Doesnt exactly seem like progression to me :s

I'd have a go at somewhere like bedford 1st mate. Get used to it.

I'm holding out till i can afford insurance :( if i go for a 182 next august i think i'll get a good'n for 5.5K Easily.

When i start trackdays i'm going to go to bedford autodrome because it has the big runoff's etc. Sorry to see this mate, it must be gutting for you, chin up though.

More like bloody insane. Unless he's won the lottery or sumthing.

Thats class mate, a little sad but class, i'd do it at some point in the future.

Good picture mate, shame we can't see more on the car.
