First time Clio Sport RS owner in New Zealand

[senuwees]

Hi all.

Dewald here from New Zealand.

I have purchased my first Renault Clio Sport RS. I have been interested in them for a long time but always had my other project that needed my time, until now. These are quite rare in NZ and they don't come up for sale often. I managed to jump on one as soon as it came up for sale and added it to my garage, I would like to use her at the occasional track day when possible.
Leia is a silver 2011 and has done 115 xxxkm's, there is some paint work to be corrected but is suspected given her age. Other than that she drives really well, I collected her a week ago and drove her back home which was a nice 370km drive.

Cheers

Nice, we used to live in Warkworth. North of Red Beach, but we have relocated down south now.

Thanks guys. @Jaeclio where are you guys based in NZ?

Me and @DLX are based in Auckland (East/South) and we both have Ph1's. Plenty of others too but not sure where abouts they are based mate you?

Ok I see, I have moved to Palmy from Warkworth last year.

Nice purchase - I can imagine that they don't come up for sale that often, like you say.

Were yellow Brembo’s an option? They look good against the silver paintwork.

These were definitely painted by the previous owner, I am in two minds about repainting them but then they do look kind of nice against the silver.
