Passed you yesterday by Brymbo in my blue 197

Had a 172 cup for 3 years until 2006. Early on in its life (when it had done about 5k miles I think) I changed the springs to Eibach sportlines and put the original cup springs in the garage. I've now returned to Clio ownership (after a 156 GTA and a Twingo GT) and have a non-cupped 197 which...

Last active 2003 to 2006 when I had my 172 Cup with white speedlines (DE52 YJW) which I still see around Wrexham. Back now with an albi blue 197, and very happy.

At last - I've seen my old car! Looked good and shiney. I flashed like mad, but got no reaction - not surprising I guess considering I'm no longer driving a Clio. Let me know if you need any background info on the car - it's a cracker. Cheers, Gary

I part ex'd my beloved Cup for an Alfa at ES Jones in Dobshill near Mold about 3 weeks ago and I'm wondering if anyone on here has bought it? It's got white turinis and a 2x3.5 magnex exhaust. I'm missing it and need to know it's being looked after / ragged as it should be.... Ta

Hi Just managed to get my hands on a 360 at last and I want to link it to my wireless home network - but I don't want to pay 60 quid to Mr Gates. Can I use any old adapter? My main PC uses a 17 quid Belkin USB adapter from Argos that works fine - so my question is, can I use that (or another...

I've got white 17 turinis on my cup. During the course of the 34,000 miles I've covered with these wheels I've had bridgestone potenza and goodyear F1s - both in 205x40x17 size, but I'm now fancying a change. By my reckoning a 35 profile 215 width tyre will have slightly less overall diameter...

I followed you in my Cup this morning from the Gresford roundabout to Abenbury Road. I enjoyed the feeling of being part of a Clio Cup Convoy.

Ive got a magnex ss cat back system on my 172 cup with the twin round pipes. It sounds great but looks pants because it looks so "after market" - ie it isnt integrated with the bumper. I want to rectify this and raise the exhaust into the bumper by cutting out about 2-3cm of plastic. Has...

Ive just had a magnex cat-back twin 3.5" exhaust fitted to my Cup at Demon Tweeks. It seems to slope downwards underneath the car and so exits about 1" under the rear bumper - does anyone know how to improve the fitting so it will be horizontal and therefore need a cut out in the rear bumper...

Im thinking of buying a £3k megane coupe, and I still have my 16" turinis (sale fell through yet again ffs): - question is will they fit the megane if I get it? Its a 1996 1.6 coupe - I know theyre 4 stud, but not sure of the PCD (ie4x100 or whatever) or the offset (ie ET38 etc). Any help...

Whats the best kit to get from this: http://erc.qmuc.ac.uk/Cliosport/Gallery/Full/1066602898__DSCI0042.jpg ...to this: http://erc.qmuc.ac.uk/Cliosport/Gallery/Full/1066602967__DSCI0042low.jpg (the second one has been badly photoshopd!) A few people are raving about eibachs - Which kit...

I want to lower it 20-30mm (ie not much, but enough to stop it looking silly). I want to spend about £250 including fitting and geometry setup. Ive had eibachs on a civic vti I used to have, and they were great - any recommendations? Ill be keeping the standard shocks.

My Cup had the common front suspension fault fixed a couple of months back, and I think maybe its not as low at the front as it should be anymore. Im probably talking b****cks here, because the fix involved the mounts and new shocks, not the springs, so I dont see how ride height could be...

How much affect can air temp have on BHP? Ive had my Cup rrd today (its first one since I got it in March), and I couldnt help but feel disappointed with the bhp figures - 144.9 at the wheels, and 163.3 at the fly wheel was the best of two runs (144.4 & 163.1 for the first one). It got...

Has anyone on here made the bold move of putting white speedlines (or similar) on their cup? I fancy the idea, but whats the balance of opinion on here? Any pics (real or photoshopd) appreciated.

With my Cup, when I press the accelerator it goes steadily to the floor and stops. However, once it feels like its stopped travelling if I press it a little harder it gives another 5mm or so, all-of-a-sudden. Its almost like somethings got stuck behind the pedal which gives in when you press...

Anyone done any 30-70 testing in their clio? Anyone know what a cup should do it in? And is the standard test to start from a steady 30 then floor it?

Am I the only one who thought that the Cup was supposed to be limited to a run of 500 per year? Anyone know exactly how many have been produced for the UK market?

I know this has been discussed a few times, but can anyone point me in the right direction to get one of these things? Do R-Sport have a website? And whats the latest on the Renault warranty position? Cheers
