Brand New Clio 210 Cup (Well, almost was!)



H

Harpham

I picked up my 200 Cup yesterday, so thought it would be rude not to post a few pictures on here...

Also, here is my review of Richard1 and Crawley Down Group RenaultSport for anyone that is thinking of buying a 200: http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?549391-Richard1-Crawley-Down-Group-RenaultSport&p=7312367#post7312367

And before anyone says, I didnt want to be a sheep (baaaaah) and get the Speedlines. I like the standards anyway as they show off the Brembo's y0!

A few from when I picked it up:

7 Miles on the clock ;)

And the first and only mod was going to be my +10BHP CS sticker (hence the title name), but it went a bit wrong as some moisture was on the inside of the rear window, leaving me with 10bhp screwed up :( :

Im absolutely loving the car at the moment. I cant wait until ive ran it in properly and can give it a bit more revs ;)

Needs speedlines. :(

Colour looks okay but I think there's better choice on the 200.

I also think black must be like the rarest colour in the 200! Only seen 3 on here I think. I'd never own a black car again right enough!

Richard's awesome, bought my first 172 from him at Crawley Down :D

Looks nice, I'm a fan of the Speedlines but I like that this is different!

Looks decent, the 200 wears RB better than the 197 does imo.

Can't stand the standard wheels though mate, sorry!

LOL at Dan, he has a way with words that boy!

Bad luck on the sticker though :dapprove:

The 200 is just as good without Speedlines and you'll get more enjoyment out of driving it than looking at it.

Is that why you spent the extra £1200 odd on LY :p

Already dirty :( The dealership was 180 miles away from me, so it is pretty dirty, in my standards!
Its visiting JimWD next week for a detail, and after that, it probably wont be cleaned again until Spring ;)

Because it looks better :( You don't wash yourself in poo so you smell different!

Enjoy it and go easy in any snow!

Nice way of putting it haha ;)
I think as soon as any more real snow comes, it will be staying on the drive. Last thing I want is to break it as soon as ive got it :)

Thanks for all the comments guys, really appreciate the love!
Oh and Brian, you sir are a legend :D

I quite like these wheels on the RB! I think different colours suit the speedlines.

My thoughts exactly... I agree that the speedlines do look awesome on other colours, e.g. Glacier White, and totally understand why people get them but on RB, I think the standards look pretty damn sweet!

I also saw an RB 200 just after I had ordered mine, it had the speedlines and I just wasn't overly keen. Im glad that I stuck with the normal ones.

Those wheels look utterly sh1t! And the Brembo's also look rubbish in red! (Can you even spec them a different colour)

f**king with the suspension on a car rated for its awesome handling, Madness IMO. :slap:

Unless you spend a small fortune

Like taking the dampers off a Trophy and putting Ktech stuff on.

Nice care although I agree with William. I personally hate those rims, and I'm not a fan of flashy red callipers. Especially when they're mincing 4-pots ;)

RB 200s are lurvly.

Would you not consider spraying the standard wheels black? Black and RB really suit each other IMO

I'm not happy. You've got more fuel in it than I had when I collected mine. :(

Thats because I had just put £40 of fuel in it when I took the pic (the petrol station was right next to the dealer lol, I just forgot to take the pic of mileage when it was there) ;)
It only had a tiny bit in when handed over, just above the red.

Errmmm, they would look good... But i dont really want to spend money on it atm. I think if im going to spend anything on it, it would be to buy a Cup Spoiler (about £180-190 from Wests, and respray would cost me about £30-40). The spoiler was the one extra I wanted, but I didnt want to pay the £400 price tag, as I knew you could get it quite a bit cheaper.

Nice one Harpham, welcome to the superior Cliosport gang :rasp:

I hope you have got driving it out of your system, aparently theres more snow on the way and as i found out last time around the 200 is pants compared to the 172. Combination of bigger tyres and more weight i guess :dapprove:
