I've driven loads of 197/200's but they look a bit pants, interiors imo are hideous and they're too expensive and thirsty for me to even consider 15k plus a year in. They do drive very nicely though, about all they have going for them imo

It does't take long to get balls deep, kept a spreadsheet on mine and not added the front end suspension refresh yet as it's in the shed, not actually on the car yet, lol!

I'm definitely in the other camp, I think the 197's look rubbish really. never got on with design language of the front of that era, same reason i'm not hugely keen on that era of megane either. 200 or nothing if I had to have a mk3. but to me they're just too expensive for not much gain, want...

oh go on, tell us, I paid 600 for mine...……..about 6k into it now though, flol!

Nice find! Are you sharing what you paid for her 🧐 :ROFLMAO:

Allow the enthusiasm to wash over you, before you know it you'll exceed the previous owners levels and the warm fuzziness of proper Clio ownership will envelop you in it's warm and reasonably priced embrace

Welcome, another car saved by what sounds like an enthusiastic new owner!

Looking good man and nice progress

Weirdly the item won't load for me now on ebay, but search clio boot mat and its there (y)

Another small addition, cheap ebay boot mat, fits perfect and looks the part so for just over a tenner I'm happy, help protect the original even though don't really use the car boot much tbh

both the stalks are wrong, arse! Appears phase 1 are lucas items not valeo and not cross compatible really. Plus colour match ain't quite right. So bought a lucas one..... for a poverty spec it bloody seems as only single fog light position.... dammit should of looked closer on the popular...

why would you let the courier take the parts if they hadn't already been paid for? I don't get it? edit, wait I do, just took me while figure it out, lol i'd so get scammed easy 🤣

Welcome back.....Although no one ever truly leaves

Another minor update, cars just been lapping up the mileage as normal, however hit a couple of stumblers recently. The cat joint fell off manifold side, so I sold the original cat and stuck a cheap eBay 60 quid one on with a new fitting kit. That keeps occasionally throwing a Lambda fault up...

are you implying I even have hair? :unsure:

My 182 does this sometimes but not all the time, I always use 97 or above RON fuel, currently ESSAR 99 as local place is that now but if out and about BP or Shell etc etc. It can do it on any tank of fuel from any of the above, so I have always just put it down to slight impurities in a certain...

Seen today around 1:30/2pm at Stafford street roundabout, right silver fox at the wheel. looked far cleaner than my heap but didn't catch full reg so couldn't MOT History stalk you. You were waving or something out the window though so defo a 'Clio guy' so may be on here?

Nice purchase, looks a good base and getting belts done before you even get it is ideal, piece of mind! Presume you are chap on Facebook groups too who has his answer for carbon (carbon skins) and wheel refurb (snappy)? I have used both those for my stuff and wouldn't use anyone else, both...

Great to finally meet you too chap, cars a credit to you. :cool: @Dr Jekyll

surely its pretty simple to figure out, try to remove battery, if airbox is in way, remove and there is your answer? some gibbons about

reiterate all above really, good ones are getting hard to find thanks to being killed, tracked or kept hold of now. I may well have the least valuable RB in the country now though but still wouldn't sell it for less than 3k in its current setup

341lb (60nm) it appears is stock

again this is for mk1 fitment, so Clio Williams, but I run them with mk2 wishbones, arb, etc etc

in all honesty I am not entirely sure but at a guess 250-300 ish just checked, my replacement are 500, not 550

I run 550lb iirc on my variant 2's on my mk1

My set for now

as above really, just stick jumper leads on it with alternator disconnected
