Just thought I'd pop in and say hello to see how many of the Cliosport old-school were still here.
I'm moving to the centre of Bristol with a new job, so I've just sold my 300bhp Fiat Coupe 20V Turbo and am now using my other half's '02 1.2 Authentique. Talk about a step-down in performace lol!
It's not all bad though: the money is in the bank, I've had a refund on the insurance and I had fun "beating" a Ford Ka off the Severn Bridge tolls today.
Anyway, another reason to sell my car was that my other half is working abroad this summer. It makes sense to keep the 1.2 until then, but after that I think I'll be getting desperate for something better to drive (although I guess my annual mileage will be sub 5,000).
We'll be sharing a car for the foreseeable futute. Interestingly, the only one of my recent cars that she'd drive was my 172 (bought from Daipac). So, I was wondering what the news is on the Mk3 Renaultsport Clio? I reckon I could afford one of these babies when they come out, as long as it doesn't stand out too much on the street (always thought the 172 was good for this - it never attracted as much unwanted attention as my Williams did).
