2007 Clio 1.2?

[polarbert]

How can anyone buy such a car?

The clutch is the lightest thing I've laid my foot on. The brakes have absolutely no feel.

Understeers slightly, gearbox is average.

I suppose its just a white good really. I suppose I could live with one if I wasn't interested in cars.

No offence to anyone that has one, just not my cuppa tea!

Got it as a courtesy car from Archie Moss, while my great reliable car has new anti-roll bar bushes, new engine mount, and a new boot lock. :rofl:

all new cars in low spec form are a bit wooly

MY old boy has the Dynamique Mk3 (1600cc with all the toys) think thats the spec, and the steering is so light its un real, the brakes are either off or on, no happy medium there!

I couldn't believe the brakes!

It was piss easy to park though.

Roll on getting the 182 back!

i have one of the wooly 1.2 mk3s!

have to agree! steering is like your driving in the air! to get a happy medium of brakes, its in neutral first then the brake on!

clutch is much lighter than the old mk2 hydraulic ones!

Got mine back at last. They didn't fit the anti-roll bar bushes as they had ordered the wrong ones.

They did however leave a few nice scratches on the back bumper for me.

Going to try and get that sorted when it goes in for the a-r bar bushes.

ive thought the same about mine i still enjoy driving it but it lacks feel

im driving about in a 1.2 16v mk3 the now.

the lack of power is very noticeable when pulling away, it seems to bog down, but once its rolling its not a problem about town when you get used to it.

i like the light clutch

the brakes are dangerous, i get paranoid when stopping at junctions if anyones behind me! - nothing, nothing, nothing, WHACK!!

 

[polarbert]

I found it quite amusing that I started slowing down going up a hill at 50mph!

Mk2's had cable (v6 excepted)
