hmm, dont liek matt black on a black car.

quite like the idea of mirror polished to be honest but would it not be a bigger job over just spraying/powdercoating??

not sure how much it would cost, and will many wheel refurbers etc be able to do it?!

never had a problem with black or yellow cabs, but private hire firms are 5hite! most of the time if i see a vectra, 406 estate or cavalier i expect it to be a taxi driver and get ready to be pi55ed off!

haha, no definate decision yet, give me some ideas and i might choose it!! Leeds VTO, not sure if these pics will help??

no mate i havent, they arent on the car yet, i could post a pic of the car and one of the wheels if that helps??

yeh i know, i bought one of those brushes to get inbetween the blades!! was thinking anthracite now or a gun metal, i know white will be a bit(h to keep clean. if anyone fancies a photoshop...

anyone got any ideas?! all you people bored at work on a friday afternoon?!

i had an engine transplant to the 1.2 16v unit, pulls really well through all the gears upto a steady 135mph ish, but 0-60 is slightly higher. the better sides are it gives about 1 or 2 mpg more over the old engine, and the tyres seems to last a few more miles, thats about all, if im honest...

if i were you id get a crosser, much more performance and hugely fun but it depends on your transport and money situation, but definately worth the exyra, especially if you have the time/money and space to use it properly.

finally a response!! im not too sure on which to go for, as im aware that white wheels will be a b**ch to keep clean, but they would stand out a lot more, which colour is easier to get a good finish with, ie show up the imperfections more??

on my clio, 1.2 the same as yours the light comes on at 58ish miles, and ive pushed it once to 50 but the car was shuddering a bit when i floored it!! wouldnt do it again, one of my mates has a 1.6 51 plate and his regularly says 100+ miles and then just cuts out, hes used to it now and just...

surely someone on here has some opinions!?

hmm, price and insurance doesnt seem bad at all, although id have to spend a lot more to get rid of some of those horrible looks!!

he must have thought you were a chav putting stickers on your 1.2 to make it look faster!!!

what is the insurance group for this and price?? good report there mate, might be interested in looking at one of these sometime in the near future

no, but it might be something to do with yours clearly being the only 2.0 clio or something...?! did he not notice the engine cover saying 2.0 16v when he had his head under there?!

i dont understand why these, and auto lights are fitted on cars?! way i think of it is if you arent capable of turning lights on when its dark, and wipers on when it rains then you shouldnt be on the road!!

i like the way he/she has stuck elastoplast plasters on the tailgate to get rid og the holes after 'smoothing' the boot!!

arthritis??

sorry mate but thats got chav written all over it, they completely ruin the inside of a car, just my opinion though... in answer to your question though im pretty sure they are easy enough to hardwire in with a simple switch hidden somewhere out of eyesight.

everything! i love everything about my clio!part of me wouldnt want to buy another so i could try a different car, but i wouldnt want to change because i love them!!

someone must have an idea?!

thanks for the input edde, im hoping they will be fine for my car, i dont often push it near where i think it may lose it, so hopefully they should be good!

bought myself some turbines, got my tyres so all i need now is to colour the turbines! wass thinking white, but then had the idea of a gun metal colour??or anthracite? my car is a 3 door in black, will be lowered 35mm when they go on aswell so any ideas off anyone would be good, apart from...

some people said that on another thread i posted on here about which to choose over GSD3's and T1-R's, but the toyo's got a '1.5' grip in wet conditions on the mytyres tyre test, and the GSD3's got '2.1', and both tyres have roughley the same kilometers tested??

its my first buy off them but im extremely happy with the service, definately reccomend them to anyone, was abit nervous about buying them but definatley happy that i did.

ordered some tyres on saturday off mytyres, and had an email yesterday saying the estimated delivery date was 11/12/06 - next monday, then got a phonecall they had been delivered to my nans today, well happy! also, can't wait to get my wheels painted so i can put them on, the compound is so...

you should add some older drivers, might make it go down, i know on my second policy having my mum and dad as named drivers took it down £400!

seems fairly genuine to me, would make sense but im nto sure how insurance works, could be something completely different..
