Bit of a downgrade tbh...

[Harpham]

Went from this:

1.2 16v 53 plate Clio...

To this :

52 plate, Clio 172 on 43k with factory fitted sat nav :approve:

BTW, ignore how the suspension looks, its just how cars sit on the top of my drive!

Im in love.....

 

[Gally]

Lols it was like high front, high back, high front, high back!

Looks very nice.

 

[RichClio]

Such a nice colour!! i am very jealous! right now im saving hard for a 182

 

[Budgie]

Awesome!

Although, ditch those centre caps and plates asap!

They ruin the car!

 

[Harpham]

The centre caps will be going asap, along with the alloys (as one of them is buckled and they're 17's... dont fancy 17's lol), as I want to get hold of standard 172 alloys!
And the plates annoy me too tbh Alloys are my priority atm though! lol

 

[Magic Johnson]

Needs slammmmmed!

Looks mean though.

 

[jdh91]

think your right down grade. loose the wheels. nice though.

 

[mark_sport172]

If your selling the alloys, give me a PM..... Quiet like those alloys.

BTW, Clio looks stunning. Love the colour

It'll be awesome with standard wheels on.

The brightest silver you can get!

 

[Tupps]

Nice downgrade mate

My thoughts exactly... Want to try and keep the standard look aswell.

Only other things ill be wanting to do to it is uprating the brakes (as the rear brakes will need doing soon anyway and the fronts have already been uprated) and put a stainless exhaust on if the standard one decides to break!

 

[guysy]

Nice purchase, A few choice mods and it will be a minter.

 

[nathanH]

Pics of san nav needed... forgot what it looks like... not many spec'd with it!

Very nice downgrade m8 . Looks very tidy, and sat nav too sweet!

 

[st3ve]

You gave it away with the name of the car under your avatar.

Looks mint anyway pal flamers are my favourite colour on the normal 172's easily. If you get standard wheels get em powdercoated gloss black ftw.

 

[Magic Johnson]

I like the alloys that are on it, bar the centre caps.

His Clio is awesome tbf! :hail:

But can mine pull off black wheels if its not going to be lowered or anything?

Im quite fancying just the standard silver tbh though, as the car is quite rare (because of the satnav) so I dont want it to look like its been owned by a "boy racer" due to subtle mods like that... If that makes sense!
And also, I know if I have them sprayed black, ill want to start doing other things to it, like carbon diamonds etc lol!

 

[Slammed172]

Not a fan of the alloys (size & centre caps) or plate.. Other than that, a good upgrade. Defiantly rare with sat-nav, but i bet its crap, lol, like all factory fitted navs.

Might see you about Notts if your ever in town.

 

[nick.]

Well you could always get yourself some standard ones which will look good and then if you ever fancy lowering it you could then get them sprayed black if you wanted

You've got to get it sitting on some Eibach sportlines at least. Standard 172 wheels in standard colour let the car down big time.

 

[Davis]

looks nice mate. very clean

 

[Curley]

Lovely downgrade

 

[pritchard182]

looks sweet slam it though

 

[Jun]

One of the best down grades you can have

 

[alex-avfc]

Go with silver wheels, it's the future.

Plans sound good though, good choice with Flame red.

 

[Leeshez]

Red is a nice colour.

 

[Megzy]

WoW... that needs Lowering!!

 

[MK3]

Get it slammed Wish i could downgrade to something like this lol! Lovely colour

 

[Harpham]

Thanks for all the comments peeps!

Dont think ill be lowering it any time soon But im thinking other things may be happening...
- 172 wheels are a must tbh
- New plates (may go for 3/4 front if im feeling like a daredevil)
- Needs a splitter, so may go for ktec carbon splitter
- And then carbon Renault badges and bullets all round
- May go for an exhaust once this one goes.

Anything else I should consider?? (Not lowering lol )

 

[Sargara]

Come to the Donnington meet in the East Midlands section now you have a sport

I was looking at that thread yesterday... Left a post in it!
I said I would if theres people from Nottingham going aswell, so I can convoy down with them!
Are you going?

 

[Slammed172]

Plans sound good, why not lowered ?

Because im already being raped for insurance so I dont want to pay any more for that and atm im enjoying a nice smooth ride... Dont get my wrong though, in a few months time I may totally change my mind and slam her :rasp:

 

[Rob]

Should have got yourself a modified insurance policy, I did through sky and can't say I regret it at all

I've just stepped to 172 town, the power difference is amazing! Bet you're loving it, car looks great, bar the few things that have been mentioned.

Got some pics today:

 

[Tigger]

Yeyy mine can wear MY Orange bits again

Looks really good mate - keep it sweet

 

[Harpham]

First Mod:

ClioSport sticker...
Could have done with being ever so slightly higher, but the Cliosport is in line with the Renault lettering!

Also, this car is gonna take some looking after to keep it clean.. I only cleaned it 2 days ago (and i havent drove many miles) and its already ditched!

 

[Beef-Mc]

I see what you mean now about the basic GPS.

 

[Jonnio]

I see what you mean now about the basic GPS.

Looks a hell of a lot better than the standard one in my car lol.

The Clio looks very noice!
