Guide to MK1 Non-sport Clio's?

[cgap]

I'm tired of sharing a car with the OH and am interested in getting a Mk1 1.2/1.4 to get me to work and back.

Problem is I know nothing about the Mk1, is there a guide on CS at all to the different editions etc?

Buy a RL (Poverty edition) I have had 3 mk1's and my £300 RL was the shizz lol

1.4RT for all the extras

I have a RL..Very nippy on steels.

Only time mine didnt work was a problem with an earth on the gearbox, £10 later and it was fixed. Just watch out for rust.

Not powersteering either, doesnt bother me much, direct steering FTW!

[Savi]

I only ask as I wanna get rid of the power steering on my valver, didn't quite know what model mk1 rack & column I needed to do it

cheers

thread from the dead or what lol!

Manual steering on a valver is a wonderful thing & I'm glad I done it
