Been thinking lately about selling the clio, and getting a cheaper car, such as a 106gti, and throwing the rest towards a kit car of some sort.. anyone want to talk me out of it and tell me im being stupid?! lol
imo i wud keep it, but its ur car so its ur decision. sounds like uve done all the right mods tho. the way the market is atm for cliosport's u wudnt get imo a great price for ur car.
i've looked at some kit cars and i think there near all total utter dog sh1t.... they may have a rapid bike engine but there near all ford made to a cheap budget in a shed..
when they turn up at a mates garage for work, mot's etc they all shake their heads hoping the guys lost. nope, he wants something done to it NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! they would rather fist themselves that touch them..
that said there are a few rare ones that are built by people that really know there stuff..
Although both an S1 and S2 Elise are quicker off the mark than any Clio variant, at speeds over 60mph a 172/182 is easily its match. The later 111R is a different story. The Elise is more fun to drive, but not on motorways where its ride quality limitations and bone hard seats come into play. Try before you buy and remeber you will be paying group 20 insurance.
