Anyone know about this Clio in Fast Car?

[CrippsCorner]

Never buy the magazine but looked at the front cover in WHSmith's this morning... though it looked quite nice. Any more information on it!?

That's the biggest image I could get from their website!

 

[JAMason]

Not to my taste. The effort and detail that has gone into it admirable and though,

 

[Jack!]

Well that pisses all over the post a picture of your engine bay thread.

 

[MrDave]

Was in pfc last month iirc

 

[Dan...]

Ahh, I've seen this bay before, looks mint! I might have to pick up a copy of this months

 

[midge]

LHD, owner unlikely to be on here.

 

[Knuckles]

saw this too, too much effort and money for a Clio though.

Leather engine bay FFs, god forbid a mechanic marks it when servicing it lol

 

[Joe#]

I just don't see the point in this car at all.

 

[danward]

I like it, always appreciate the effort put into these cars.

 

[caymanr26]

From Belgium - they aren't allowed to mod engines power wise so go different routes
i saw it at fcs last year as well as in PFC last month - amazing amount of detail - leather bay is properly crazy

 

[l33th3tr33]

Apparently he comes over for FCS every year, so he'll probably be there this year.

 

[Bobby.]

Not the route I would favour either but we can all agree that hes done a brilliant job.

 

[LiamR172]

f**k trying to keep that clean if he actually drives it.

Also, not aloud to mod the engine but he has an induction kit?

 

[caymanr26]

thats as far as it goes and thats pushing it - think they get away with an exhaust too but in theory nothing that would add power but guess they have to push things a little!

 

[Nick_Leeds]

It'll still rattle like f*ck.

 

[Cub.]

And I thought the white bits and pieces in my engine bay were hard to keep clean. Lol!

 

[CrippsCorner]

I just like the fact it's a feature car and still has the original bodykit on I wonder what the colour is? Seats look like they could be awesome, if a little overkill.

 

[The Chubby Pirate]

Owner is definitely on here, almost certain the colour is BMW's sepang bronze.

 

[Kyle 86]

It looks great apart from the wheels

 

[ben_r1]

This was at FCS last year, believe it had Belgium plates.

 

[Chip-mk1]

Rules on modifying are very different on the continent, a lad in france I knew who had a 2.0 nova had to keep refitting the original engine for the "MOT" style test over there!

imo it's the best looking Sport ever! And regarding the modifying rules in Belgium, they aren't allowed to do anything unless it has an attest with it. If you have that attest needed for every specific modified part you'd still have to pay extra for every modification made.

LOL, and theirs us whinging about put the cat back on our 182's.

Indeed!

Shows how lucky we are!

 

[Bobby.]

Hardly seems worth it, you would think he would take it off the road and use for track days?

 

[Chip-mk1]

Its a weekends work at most once you know what you are doing and have already got all the bits, so not as bad as it sounds, plus from what he was saying trackdays are harder to come by in france, plus I think he just likes the fact that people are REALLY surprised when they get beaten by a nova in their 172 or whatever, over here you wouldnt think too much of it if I came past you in a nova or corsa as you will no doubt have seen loads of other fast ones, but this way he gets to have a car people really dont expect and that he just really loves.

Brilliant thanks! I searched Google but couldn't find any more information. Looks great, apart from the steering wheel, that's bloody awful lol.

That colour really is stunning in good light...

 

[Chip-mk1]

It was impressive in real life at Combe last year.
Very well done.

 

[ParisPeach]

I well want a leather interior!! But a darker shade

 

[Dolan]

There has been a lot of work gone into this and it looks fantastic in person.
It's great because it's different.

 

[Chi]

I really like it. colour and wheels tbh

 

[Goodj]

facking hideous.

but, as Chip says, modification styles vary wildly. You wanna see how much effort can be poured into a '93 Proton Saloon to make it look…….

actually, some on here would probably take pointers from them

Met this Clio in Wetzlar (Germany) on the Mittelhessen Tuning Show 2013.
