Hi All, Not been over here for a few years. Love the new look of the forum now. Just wondering if anybody on here owns my old Clio 172 Cup and if so how it's getting on. Bought new in 2003 and sold in 2006 to another CS member. Toying with the idea of getting one as a weekend/summer toy...

Right, Just an idea I've been toying with. Unlocking some money in my Cup and buying one of these "cheap" MK1's for about £4500. Need about £3k to spend on various things so this would be perfect. Has anyone gone from a Cup (or ph2) to mk1 before? How does the ph1 drive differently to a Cup...

Saw it at sandilands about 16:15 today. Non Cupped one, 05 reg

Sure the number plate ended PHY but it was very dark. About 07:15 this morning.

A mate at works brother has a very early mk2 172. He recently had a "belt" service (not sure on the miles on the car) but shortly after his started produce black smoke and refusing to go anywhere (ECU light along with a couple of others) I've never seen the car as it isn't local to me but the...

Any good? Currently use Meguiars: Step 1 (at all the time) > Step 2 > #21 > #16 Will I benefit from klasse instead of step 2?

Spotted outside my flat about 3:30 this afternoon. Was just about to get the car out as it drove past. Bottom of Spout Hill, Croydon (Addington Village Road) Fella was a bit older than youre average 172 owner. Anyone on here?

54 reg 182 with Cup chassis. Big Cliosport sticker in back window. Bottom of Gravel Hill by the BP station about 14:30

Renault Shirley. First one ive seen up in the flesh. Really nice and the Recaros look so comfy! Reckon its ready for delivery. Trophy owner in Croydon or Bromley?

Spout Hill Road about 17:15. RO03 *** Nice and clean! Amazing all the bloody RS Clios you see while out walking.

Upper Shirley Road in Croydon (near Trinity) today about 17:00 Black looks so good with Turinis

Going down the Trinity school D/C about 16:40 today. Loud? just a bit!:D

Need help guys...... Ive bought a 172 interior to fit to my 172 Cup. Just need to know where i stand with the airbags in the seats? Will the go pop if I connect them to the Cup? As the Cup isnt intended to have them? Or is it best to put the leather skins of the cup seats? Mucho help...

Cant work out how to bolt my spare Turini down in the wheel well. The plastic bolt just isnt long enough. Surely it cant be a different part to the one in the 172 or normal clio.

My friends brother has a very early (Y or 51) mk2 172. It dont have a alloy spare it has a steel 15 I thought all 172s had an alloy spare? Has he been ripped off?

I know the 172 has better speakers than the Cup and lower end clios (40w instead of 20w or something) but does it have speakers at either side of the rear parcel shelf?

I know this has been talked about a lot but I find the standard bulbs in the Cup total crap on a dark motorway. My MK2 VTRs were miles better. So Im thinking about buying some new one. Im thinking of getting white LED side lights and a new set of H4s - but which ones? Dont wanna go mad and...

Driver seat padding on my Cup has become a little squeaky. If you push back with your sholders it makes a really annoying rubber squeaking noise. Other seat is fine. Anyone else had this? Dont really wanna take it to reno cause theyll cover the springs in 3-in-1 oil or something stupid.

My uncle has just changed the oil in my cup for the first time. Ive had it a year so I thought change the running in oil. Now I see I should have had it done at 1000miles! The oil in the car was rubbish quality. No way it was the right oil for the car - it was like water! Funny really...

Just looking in my manual. What Clio has 195/50 rubber? Thought the normal 172 had 45s just like the cup? Put my Cups to 33/30 as it says for the 195/45s but it feels too hard. Are these pressures in the manual quoted for the normal 172? They where only at 28/26 :oops: Cause I havent checked...

Ive had it a year now and have done knowhere near the 12,000 miles required for the 1st service. Should I just book it in for an oil change and leave it at that? Get the first service next year?
