clio 172 rs2 , need advice...

benito31 · May 13, 2011

hello everybody, the car came on British Island ( the 24 april) ...

I left Toulouse without the south of France (I have two
hours from Spain) and then fly towards leeds
direction york to get my beautiful blue.
Besides the fact that I'm 14h road to come back: o I
say it is an experience to make and remake the British are
super fun: girl:

Small information:

clio rs 2002 methyl blue ... This
it had 112,000 kms (69000miles) when purchasing, xenon lamp, alarm
home and everything else

  the above was added by him:
sportline spring-30MM, Turin cup rims 16 with toyo tires, blade
K-tec carbon fiber,
all rods painted in blue Monaco, Renault Sport badge
recent releases, logo renault front / rear rim and logo
aspect of carbon fiber, Recaro seats trophy, disc brakes
Brembo and Ferodo pads and "short Arel" but I know not what
that means: lol:

all maintenance has been done, auxiliary belt, pump
air conditioning ... distribution in March 2010. I have all the MOT and
the maintenance log.

go up to the pictures, sorry for the dirt, I took over the
breaks on the road or the ferry at Dover: o

Sorry for my English ...
ps >> it must have belonged to one of your members because the sticker is on my forum back window

in france:

news ::

I replaced the bellows gimbal bearing side, I look for a line
exhaust and I hesitate between a scorpion and a line line
toyosport (good price on ebay)? did you notice? user you to paint your calipers
Brake?
the exhaust line of origin was so rusted that it was fixing it is breaking :dead:

You bought a RHD car from the UK to use in France? :S

Looks nice though!

Mark-172 · May 13, 2011

^^ I was just thinking the same thing , there must be no decent 172's left in France anymore ha

but yeh looks good though

mr.pink87 · May 13, 2011

and another RHD working on the continent! For the people that will be confused: these little cars are f***ing expensive over here (double the price) and driving a RHD isn´t that bad!

benito31 · May 13, 2011

yes, the RHD isn't a problem in france and the price is very interesting, in france a LHD is more expensive with the same parts...

Christopher · May 13, 2011

Ahh fair enough. They're so cheap here now though, I can understand why you travelled!

Do you have to re-register it for French licence plates?

benito31 · May 13, 2011

yes, I expect the certificate of compliance which must be sent to me by Renault France, I must give an exhaust line for the control technique or my issue for line or scorpion toyosport, once I made the MOT 'll pay my £ 272 for my car registration.

Cookson · May 13, 2011

Tidy motor that is. Recaros too. Mmmm

RDH · May 13, 2011

That looks mint!

d4nmc · May 13, 2011

Very nice car that, I bet you had fun travelling home to! When I sell my cup I might try selling it to someone from mainland europe, could be a good opportunity

benito31 · May 13, 2011

And for the exhaust you have a advice?

Weo · May 13, 2011

if i had a 172, i would want it looking like this.

mr.pink87 · May 13, 2011

i don´t think there is any paperwork for the scorpion exhaust. do you need to register any mods in france (like TUEV approval)? if so, you need a exhaust with homologation (E-no., permission like a TUEV-paperwork). Registration of the car itself should be possible with a certificate of permanent export or the v5 documents. That is how it works out in Germany and it should be similar in France due to EU regulations.

Adey. · May 13, 2011

thank you indeed are they very beautiful, besides change the color of brake calipers and add a strut bar at the front and rear, there will be nothing more

it requires no paper on the muffler, I mostly wanted advice about the quality of both brands, I see many scorpion on the forum but very little toyosport, I would also avoid cutting my rear bumper

£399 - click the button for the cliosport members price.

benito31 · May 14, 2011

yes, must I register it as I would have more access to part on your site. Especially since the car belonged to a member here since I support tax cliosport.net and the sticker on the
Rear Window ...
I sent a mail btb to know the shipping cost but the mail came back :dapprove:

thank's

Kane. · May 14, 2011

That looks so nice, cheap to register too

it costs around 1000 euros here.

benito31 · May 14, 2011

the sound is good for a long road or city with the ktec stealth exhaust supersport ?

> http://www.k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=1088&catid=8&appid=2&pic=2

40 pounds more than the Scorpion line but the quality may be also a little more interesting ... I'm going crazy with this story line exhaust especially as long as I have not received the exhaust I can not ride with my beautiful blue

benito31 · May 16, 2011

members can confirm that they even have international bulk orders can participate?
thank's benji

benito31 · Oct 24, 2011

Some new, the car reaches 72,100 miles, since the purchase I did change theaccessory belt kit due to a problem of screws forgotten by the garage leeds, I changed the rear discs + pads + Rear bearing rear brake. I replaced the original intermediate I changed a line n g catalyst after ORECA brand (the sound is just terrible ^ ^), I also took the opportunity to change the alternator that control more , painting the train back to the Almerita and installation oforiginal renault 4 dampers assembled to my Eibach springs. I bought an air box21Turbo + green + air filter box cover air renault 25 v6, but I can not find the solution for the spent air inlet duct diameter 100mm with setting beacon xenon
