172 cup. Hands down. Don't even think anymore about it lol.

Thanks for all the positive comments all! Loving the car , and the modding has started already lol :)

I purchased a ktr panel filter from ktr, will see if it makes any difference..

Hi all,Anyone on here running a ktec racing panel filter on their 172? Any good?Cheers,

Thanks for that mate. Will defo get it checked out by a RS specialist after its been done to make sure timing isnt out, any decent place you could recommend to me near buckinghamshire/aylesbury way? Cheers,

Thanks mate, thought it could be the clutch on its way out but it seems not then! ;)

Thanks mate. LOL hopefully not, most people I know that have owned 172 clios they've not had any major problems...

It's being done by a garage the car sales place use called macs garage near Witney (Oxfordshire): http://www.macs-garage.co.uk/ Hopefully they will do it properly then!

Thanks all. So is the clutch biting point also usually high? (At the top)

Hi all,Sorry if this is a retarded question but I don't have much experience with clio cups.. I recently bought a clio 172 cup which I pick up tomorrow night. When I test drove it the clutch felt very heavy/snappy and the biting point seemed to be quite high is this normal? If you guys don't...

I like Buckinghamshire but I prefer Oxfordshire.

Thanks for the recommendations guys. Either way I guess refurbing will be much cheaper than buying a new set of turinis...

Hi all,Can anyone recommend any decent wheel refurb places in bucks/aylesbury or milton keynes area? My turinis need a refurb all road (typical corrosion around outside of wheel), it seems its going to cost between 160-220 (£s) all round to be done properly...is this a sensible price?Thanks,Dom

Hi mate, thanks for your response to my thread. Cool, would be good to have a mini meet or something in buckinghamshire/aylesbury/mk ?

Thanks mate. Nice to hear that as it was a concern. I pick up the clio on wednesday/thursday next week paid deposit on thursday, its currently having cambelt etc done by the garage. I'm so excited love getting a "new" car to me. I plan to take it to "the ring" and some uk circuits. How do you...

Looks amazing. any plans for it?

Are these a con or do they work well on a clio ? http://www.superchips.co.uk/search?make=29&fueltype=1&model=115&variant=1308

"The thing is that when you buy a much faster car you find that you very rarley get to open it up and truly enjoy it, unlike the 182" - Completely agree with you, this is real talk.

Jamie 16v I agree, there are always going to be exceptions to the rule.

Cars arent investements dude.

Thanks for the kind comments everyone. Mazda RX8s are very difficult to sell at the moment mate because of stupidly bad fuel consumption (late teens early 20s - MPG), expensive servicing, tyres & the "what if" scenarios are potentially very costly if the cars not maintained properly (rotor tips...

Thanks mate. It's blue with the speedline alloys? Here is a link to the one i bought, don't worry about it being over priced - i got a good deal with PX: http://www.woodstockcarsales.co.uk/renault-clio-172-cup.html I'm looking forward to tuning it aswell, welcome thoughts on what tuning...

Hi All, I'm Dominic - Registered on here a few years back when I was going to get a clio sport but went another route instead... Having Px'd my current car (Mazda RX8 231) due to high running costs I have bought a Renault clio 172 Cup :) Looking forward to gettting involved in the community...

Hi All, Just wondering how much can you pick up a set of clio 182 alloys with tyres on for these days? an estimate e.g between 200-400 kinda thing.. Also can anyone point me to a thread on here about basic tuning of clio 172s as i want to look into it so i know where and what exhausts to buy...

thanks for the comments guys. Anyone up for a px? If not hoping to sell the car soon i really want a clio sport :( what do you think the performance will be like in comparison to my CRX? Thanks,

Hi All, As it says in my title i am after a clio sport cup 172 i currently have a honda CRX Del Sol which is up on ebay at the moment for sale. So as soon as that sells i can look to buy a clio cup :) im also wondering if anyones interested in doing a px? like my car plus cash your way...

Not bad at all! What mods you done to your clio then?? have you got any pics?? £627 fully comp? how old are you mate? Dom

Sounds like a good buy! especially for only 2k! Do you have any pics of it?? After how many miles did you get the cam belt done out of interest? Thanks Dom

Yeah because the focus weighs a fair bit doesnt it? i quite like the look of Astra SXI's & SRI's i will have a look at performance specs on the net, what are your views on 1.6 clios?? Thanks Dom

nice, what sort of performance spec are they mate? Also how much did you pay on insurance? Cheers
