Farewell my little Clio!

[steviem]

Just want to post a few piks of my old girl as she has gone off for someone else to enjoy.


Farewell old girl, thanks for the fun.
Ive jumped ship and gone back to the blue oval brigade with a Mondeo st tdci.

The red bits will be going in the not too distant future. She's running at 195.9 ps with 370lb torque.

They take so much bloody work for little gain.

Something like a Fiesta ST not take your fancy mate or need something big?

I love them, I really do. Such a great well finished barge.

 

[Scrooge]

Handling, looks, gearbox and how they're to drive is brilliant. Shame they're built like clios, money pits and a pain in the as to et any real power.

For the money they're great though.

Didn't get chance to have a play but she has plenty off pull.
It's my first diesel as I have always frowned upon them but I'm very pleased with it on the ride home.

 

[Scrooge]

The hybrid makes it very linear power on diesels. A must in any diesel.

Any future plans?

Gally I was looking for something bigger. A daughter to move to and from uni complete with everything she doesn't need but still has to bring or take. Plus all my fishing gear, it's amazing what you can get in a clio when you try but a bigger boot makes for cosier passengers.
As for future plans it's a matter of finding out what I have and what can I do to 'tweek' things. But that's a while away. I'll just enjoy her and get used to it first and take it from there.
