Lots of people. About a grand if you buy new. Someone is selling some nice Momo's for under £400 inc frames on V6Clio.net - see there for photos as well :)

Brooky, the pics will just look the same as if they were in a clio 172/182.
As for the costs, they'll be the same too.
 
  Disco 5 ,Monaro VXR
can i ask where you got them mate??

and did you fit them yourself??

im just looking at costs for a clio v6 while im waiting for my car and think a v6with something diff ie recard seats may sell faster when time comes
 
  GW Stage 2 R26
its somthing i want to do aty some point nearly did it with my 182 was gunna cost around £1300 for the trendlines with runners and everything
 
  Disco 5 ,Monaro VXR
noo suck

dont do it

we will have exactly the same cars then lol.

im looking at getting one of the clio's from rims.co.uk
 
  GW Stage 2 R26
ill get the trendlines wich match the interior and you can have somet different sorted lol. he onl has tthe 54 silver one left wich is 17k or the mark 1
 
  Disco 5 ,Monaro VXR
yep he is sorting out my part ex and then im going to eiether get that one or wait untill he gets another in.

the mark one is overpriced in my eyes anyway plus id want to sell alloys.
 
  GW Stage 2 R26
have you looked at it? it is nice but ye bit overpriced plus wouldnt buy a mark 1 anyway. ave you asked im to knock a bit off? he did for me

Imo, if you fitted recaro's to it you would be better off selling it as it was (standard) when the times comes & selling the seats on seperatley. That way you would get more money for them.

Info on prices for the seats etc is on here.
 
  An orange one
yes i fitted them myself...4 bolts each plus i took the runners off the standard seats

the recaro instructions are PERFECT and so is the fit and finish on all the frames/bolt holes are all perfect etc

heres mine...they perfectly match the standard trim...they are ambla black/dinamica suede black pole positions with ABE so you can use the standard belts

i got them from capital seating :)

fair play they are stunning.

i really want a v6 but couldnt only have two seats for very long.

looking at a monaro vxr 6.0 within a year to get the best of both worlds

rare
4 seats
fun to drive
and looks the business.

just may get mark 1 clio for say 10k as i dont think they will lose much money in a year.

trade her in or sell on and get the monaro
 
Any mk1 vee for 10k is likely to be a dog tbh. Finding a decent one is very hard, even some which cost 12k I found to be dogs (I paid good mk1 money for mine - but not as much as the red mk1 rims have in)
 
  Disco 5 ,Monaro VXR
the one for 10995 on autotrader @ xtreme looks good.

plus there is one @ d.s Cars for 9.5K which does look good in the pics.

but i would only be keeping it for a few months well 8 months tops.
 
  GW Stage 2 R26
mmm colin love the seats. ye would def be better of selling the seats seperatly wen its comes to selling it. dont know why they didnt have the trendlines as standerd!
 
sorting it now

http://search.autotrader.co.uk/es-u...88-91-119-4294966970-4294967142/search.action

there are two under 10k

and the one @ xtreme is lower down
With regard to the one DS have for sale....

"Full Renault service history with all the big bills done, 2005 Cam belt change with service £2700 and has had the coil packs £900 "

^
those prices are utter bs, a cambelt & waterpump can be done for £1000 from a specialist, or about £1500 from renault themselves.

Coils, can be bought for £30 each - so that's £180

So where they got their prices from is anyones guess.

If it's a good one go for it :)


The one xtreme have in, has the wrong seats in it (it's got mk 172 ones) they don't match the interior at all - however James (JR) said the other day when I posted that car up, that some did come with those seats & that his Mk1 did too.

The good news is that that car too has had it's cambelt done :)

I'd consider seeing both & going from there.

Exactly, Reno have quoted me £1k for the belt and offered to knock 10% off :) and i have changed all my coils for Peugeot items at £27.00 each!:star:

Those seats in the Xtreme one are a bit of an oddity aren't they? I have the 'proper' Mk1 ones, with the coloured RS Stripes - way better than the Mk2 with it's boring grey stripes ;) Just a shame about the dark blue leather really heh...
