After 7 very good years ive decided its time to break the clio and move on to something else:D Here are the last pics i will take of it in its current state:dapprove: Will be taking sooo many good memories with me as it's been a cracking little car and has hardly ever let me down in 7 years of...

Its the sequel to Final Fantasy XIII and picks up pretty much where the other ended, i wasn't to keen on the last final fantasy sequel which was X-2 on the ps2 but this does seem alot better so far!
The story has got me pretty...

Went to rs tuning yesterday to finish having the clio mapped. i was there a few months back after fitting a group a scuttle induction set up and changing my cam timing to get more top end power. unfortunately Paul found the limit of the standard 16v/Williams injectors (192cc) with this setup, it...
I decided to PC the car this bank holiday weekend for fcs next week. It hadn't been done since last may so was in need of doing having lots of swirls in the paint and a general lack of colour. Still need to take the wheel off and give them a good going over then the interior but that can be done...
Sold my Sparco pro 2000's as after 3 years use i decided they were a bit too much for daily driving :clown: They were perfect ( probably the best seat ive been in) on track but that covers about 1% of my driving so had to go plus one needed a new cover to tidy it up...
Decided on a pair of...
Decided it was time to dig the 15's out of the shed and get them wrapped in some new rubber. Wanted a semi slick type tyre but was quickly put of R888 due to now costing £450+ for 15's Heard good things about the Hankook Rs-2's and after seeing them for the bargain price of £220 delivered...
a friend of mine has got a 172 and asked for my help today. i pop over and he had the car on axle stands wheels off etc, for some reason the driver's side driveshaft is rubbing against the back of the block (gaiter obviously split in the process ). it is the same when the wheels are on and the...

was off work this week so set about fitting my group a induction kit on to the hybrid, this set up was used many moons ago by renaultsport on the group a car back in the early 90's (most of the mk1 boys will probably know this) so i knew it would work well. it ended up being a bit of a pain in...
friend of mine has just got a 02 172 ff , he was out in it today and said he pulled out of a junction started to wheelspin ( it was wet ) heard a loud bang and felt the car shudder then lose all drive. it will go in to gear but wont drive forward, the speedo will go up as if the car is moving...
i thought id start a new thread so we can all post our results from yesterday , there should be a few of us as i saw at least 20 clios running:D it would be good if you could post up a picture or scan of your graph along with a list of mods done so other owners of the same car get an idea of...
Went along to surrey rolling road today to get my mk1 hybrid rolling roaded as i wanted a direct comparison to my old setup which was run there last year. when i last went i made 177bhp 139lb/ft and this was running a 2.0ltr f7r , piper 270 cams , supersprint manifold, mongoose exh and hillpower...
