i found a good one! woohoo!

[Rogan]

Swift was sold a month ago so i went searching for a new car, always fancied a 172 but could never find a good example! i traveled to England twice to be let down by hit motors at top price!:S looked at serveral more over here in Northern Ireland too, if they werent hit, they were rough so just as i was gonna give up on a clio 172/182 i finally found a good one!

I bought this one off a Estate agent in Doncastor off this site and judging by its condition, i can see it hasnt had a hard life

so was over the moon with it!
1st thing was first and that was getting Rossei to detail it

After this it looked amazing, and the only blemish was the kerb marks on the alloys. So a big thanks

to SQDesign for refurbishing the alloys in a slightly lighter gunmetal(i think it suits the black better

) Before the alloys went on i painted the calipers gold, i think suits it

and fitted redstuff pads all round which make the brakes brill

Then left it into Renault for a "health check" and service so everything is 100%

I've never been so excited about owning a car! they are such fun cars to drive

Still got plans for it so watch this space

comments welcome

just a wee update! got sum bits and pieces for the clio such as
a set of Eibach sportline springs which are class! dont make it bouncy at all and lowers it 50mm (i think more like 30)
also got some carbon bits and pieces such as mirror covers, splitter and fog light surrounds
oh and a set of smoked wind deflectors
well please with how its looking now what ya's think?
