not my bag tbh, back end as a whole isnt doing it for me, and the front end looks like it cud do with being lowered. Cud use bigger wheels too, just my opinion tho, apart from that, gd stuff.

did you do all that yourself or did you buy it like that.

Well as it stands, I kind of agreed with Rhino. It's too white. So, that kind of sparked off my imagination abit. Now I am not too good with this painshop pro lark, so hopefully you will fogive me. I think it looks amazing like this this though.

i agree with debz, it would look abit better in yellow but its not my cuppa tbh. but if u like it that what matters m8
You are right, I did have it on ebay recently, because I commute from Fife to Glasgow everyday and use the train, I was worried it wouldn't get used so thought best let it go. In the end, I just couldn't let it go, probably end up regretting it. Not the first valver I have had and they really are great cars.
I purchased the car that way, so all the criticism is directed at the wrong person, however, that said, I do have plans for it. I do really like the front bumper and the rear but the side skirts are what makes this look a little OTT.
Looking in the short term to getting 17 inch alloys and lower it a little. As I use it very little, was thinking 'Project Clio' over the winter, which may include an engine change.
The custom exhaust is nice, although I am probably going to end up with an asbo cause my neighbours have complained that it sounds like a Touring Car or Rally Car (back fire included).

Okay, well seeing as everyone is being politically correct, and you have asked for an opinion, I think it looks s**t.
What a way to ruin a valver, with a badly fitted bodykit (no doubt), all the fibreglass and weight ruining the handling and power of a standard valver, nasty rear lights (it isn't a Lexus), gold alloys, I struggle to see anything redeeming other than the engine now.... I'll stop there.
I am certain you'll make it on Barryboys. Each to their own, individuality and so on, but you asked for an opinion. I'm sure I won't be the last with the above thoughts.
If you're changing it, that's excellent news and my criticism is nearly all levelled at the previous owner. However, I still struggle to see why you'd buy something like that.
What a first post.

I mearly stated that you will either love it or hate it, after all, I have to drive it :rasp:
Na, I seriously purchased it like that but of course I do have plans. First thing to go will be the wheels I think, I am ordering 17 inch replacements (white or silver) and lower it a little. The sh*tty side skirts are coming off too, and then a respray.
Dunno what I wanna do with the back but I want to keep the front bumpers.
Why? Nothing wrong with the Valvers, this is my second one. All be it, not as good looking as the first I had.

Personally speaking I am not fond of these big beefy body kits, and if you are going to kit up a Valver then I would say keep the kits small and subtle. At the end of the day though, its your car and you have to do what makes you happy. Good luck with any future plans.

Even thats a bit too modified for me...But each to their own! As someone said above Valvers in std poise look eye catching!

Don't forget Rhino16V. He's got a lovely little motor too.

Well you definitely can't please everyone that's for sure, but there are most definitely some very very nice modded Clios on here.
