Clios in and around Lichfield

Hotshot · Jul 27, 2005

I have now seen a few, with few details sticking except for the nicely modded 182 at the Trent Valley roundabout yesterday. If you are in or near Lichfield and pass through it regularly, drop a line on here.

Currently driving my first Clio. Black 1.2 16V Dynamique, bought it 2nd hand from Shiptons in Burton on Trent. http://www.clan-xtra.co.uk/cars/clio for some early pics. Not yet had a decent day to get the mags stuff off my sister to clean it yet once i do ill post some more up.

Lee · Jul 28, 2005

Matty, whats your 172 like? I see a modified silver one most days when I drive through Brownhills.

I live in Cannock. I think Im out on the piss in Lichfield next Friday!!

coope182 · Jul 28, 2005

Im from the hard knock street of Burntwood so am passing through Lichfield most the time.

I have seen a few nice Clios around the area, however there have been some dog awful ones supplied by that Garage at Fiveways island near Cannock, you know the ones with big stickers and stuff!!!

Lee, I would be at my folks this weekend so may have popped into Lichfield on friday however Im down south with work and all being well another track day this time in a Focus RS. Im building up to getting mine on track, the missus is pushing for her name on the insurance and a trip to Germany..........oh dear!

Lee · Jul 28, 2005

All sounds good to me Neal, except maybe letting her drive, but anything for a quiet life.

Its not this Friday Im over that way, its the 5th.

Lagerlout · Jul 28, 2005

Im in lichfield a fair bit. Have seen a few 182s including a Yellow one in Woolies car park. I have a 53 Silver 172 with Cup spoiler and Splitter and Turinis. Give me a flash if you see me a bout.

Hotshot · Jul 28, 2005

I wouldnt touch Shiptopns with a barge pole. They were always bad, even when it was a poxy back street garage in Stretton. Theyve just been taken over and according to a mate of mine who works in the trade, the new owners put nearly 1000 quid on every car.

They sell a lot of sh*t too. Most of their second hand cars are scratched up and knocked aout. Not very pleasant to deal with either.

What colours your Clio?

Hotshot · Jul 29, 2005

Black, ive made em take out all the pings, dents, scratches. made em retexture the shoddy rear bumper too. The car was up for 5600, but got it down to 4499. Nice lookin exhaust there Dan, that the custom job from the other thread?

Once ive gone over this car with a fine tooth comb (and products) ill get some pictures up.

Dan Page · Jul 29, 2005

yeah tis the one from the pics of the other day!

Hotshot · Jul 29, 2005

gotta pick up some parts from renault tamworth tommorrow, will attempt to give it a bit of a clean and put some pics up

ViolentJ · Jul 29, 2005

Dan, where in stafford do you work?

matty223 · Jul 30, 2005

im sometimes in lichfield iv a silver v6 my dad owns jon pauls menswear sometimes parked outside

Lagerlout · Jul 30, 2005

Is that place closing down? I used to shop there all he time. In fact Im going there on wednesday to pick up my suit for my mates wedding!! Never seen a Vee there though.

Hotshot · Jul 30, 2005

think ive seen the v6 your on about. ive bought a few t-shirts from there when i was a bit younger, and judging on how busy it was when it first opened im not surprised you have one

Might be nice if we get a few people together for a drink in Lich sometime?

Lagerlout · Jul 30, 2005

Maybe we could have the next Mids Meet near Lich some where. Its fairly Central I would say, and a piece of piss to get to from the A38.... The fact that I happen to live ten minutes away has nothing to do with it. lol.

Hotshot · Jul 30, 2005

i could actually spit on the A38 from where i am right now

was planning on washing the car and doing the interior today, typically i do one half of the car and it starts that very very irritating fine rain

When was that? I had a Blue cup packed 182 before the Trophy. Doubt it was me though as Id have remembered. Its bound to have been me you saw on the Orbital though, I drive it every day. In fact Im sure Ive posted Ive spotted you on here before.

The one with the Lexus lighs I see in Brownhills is driven by an Indian lad by the looks of it, certainly not a women. I do see lots of silver 172s in Cannock driven by women though.

BTW, Im network support spod here: http://www.swordfishstudios.comSwordfish part of http://www.vugames.com/Vivendi Universal

Hotshot · Jul 30, 2005

ill drop my cv in if you guys are looking to recruit anyone in ur dept Lee?

Lee · Jul 30, 2005

Sorry mate, not at the moment. Programmers and Artists are wanted but no one in my department. Just me and my boss.

Hotshot · Jul 30, 2005

ack not to worry, times are hard it seems. doesnt seem like my degrees entirely desirable

matty223 · Jul 31, 2005
