Sounds like just the ticket to be honest. Cheers.

So how are the Cooksports with new Cup shocks? Just a nice little upgrade to the already ace standard handling? Can someone give me a description?

Wow, would be better off with marshmallows as the suspension setup.

Thanks for the response guys. The reason I asked was generally, Ktec seem to offer quality parts so was interested to see if the miraculously cheap coilovers actually had any merit. In response to some of the answers, yes i'm looking for a performance and handling upgrade instead of 'mad lowz'...

Hello CS'ers.. Who has had experience with these? http://www.k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=2853&appid=2 In the research stage of uprating my suspension on the Cup. I know there is massive recommendation for new cup shocks with cooksports however for the same price range the above can be...

Hot. I wanna touch it soon.

Started out with a mk1 1.2 that I kept mint and it looked fantastic. Progressed to a Williams that was broken all of the time but the sillyness of it was what truly hooked me on Clios. Deviated for a bit and dabbled in the drifting scene which I also love, but after realising I could afford the...

Buy a sport.

Ooh, like the deflectors. Have been on the fence about getting some myself. Are they Heko?

Droved it lotz :approve:

I'm also going to do this as my fog lights are ruined anyway.. but more for brake cooling. I'd be interested to see finished pics too.

chriscummins7 the good old days! looked really good that did. That red one above looks like it's wearing a gimp mask, no?

Quite honestly, the best thing you can do on a 1.2 is whack on the nicest coilovers you can afford with some 15" turbines or rare cool wheels. It'll look great and not cost the earth. If you really want to change up the interior, maybe invest in a sport interior. Keep it and enjoy it for a...

Sexy, i'll have that when you're ready.

Sounds good buddy, no rush. PM me a pic?

Does someone sell the wiper blanks for the mk2? I'm after a matte/satin black one to look sort of OEM.

Is your foot constantly mashed to the floor? :p

As has been said really. Before mine was serviced I was getting around 40mpg on a run. No car enjoys slow traffic, however you should be getting better. Mine doesn't drop below 35 with a mixture of driving.

Liking it mate, I am also putting some love back into a neglected Cup!

Well, here's the start of something new! I recently bought my rough around the edges 172 Cup. When I got her she was in need of some TLC and still is, to bring her back to former glory. So far in my short ownership new tyres, wipers, complete service with belts, plugs, oil etc. have been bought...

Looks mint! Race ya. :cool:

Welcome :) Where are you from mate? I am over in Guildford.

As above, I've had a E36 328i and now own a 172 Cup, before this owning a Williams to add to the pot. The BMW looks awesome, is smooth as silk to drive, feels executive, built like tanks and are fast in the top end but personally, excitement never comes into it unless you go drifting. However...

Bought a 172 Cup. Because it's the bestest :cool::clap:

Oil change yesterday, today treated to a well deserved wash in and out

Absolutely adored my first car, a Mk1 Clio Les Routiers. Was lowered on coilovers, cream leather interior and little detailing bits.. completely mint. I hear about it from time to time and it has been owned by a fair few people now, looking VERY tired and abused :( (Old forum signature from...

Oh sorry, was referring to mine (as i have an aftermarket system with no box) ..thought it may provide some info to you of another cause of the rattle!

Sounds like the same rattle on mine, its the heat shields creating a metallic rattle sound.

Had a Mk1 Ph2 Clio as my first car and jumped to a Ph1 Williams as soon as it was vaguely affordable. Got bitten by the drifting bug hard and have been skidding about in cars of varying states of broken-ness until now, I am back in the car that I aspired to have when I was still in the clios, a...

Turned up yesterday to see if they were open, saw a quite mint black 182, who was it? Going back there today to rectify my tyre mishap. :o
