My 2003 1.2 16V Extreme 2

[Bux]

I got my first clio at the end of November and passed my driving test beginning of December!

Unfortunately had to take the alloys off it because of insurance purposes... grr

I haven't really gotten round to taking some pics of it myself, but here are a few from the ebay ad:

 

[Plummer]

Did you tell your inusrance that them alloys can come as optional?

Looks nice how it is :approve:,
lowered a tad would be better but I can understand it not being with insurance being a problem.

 

[RDH]

Don't like the alloys anyway mate, car looks clean, welcome to CS.

 

[Chris J]

Looks nice, those alloys would look good in white.

 

[kaimcg]

Hey. Nice car, alloys were shoddy. Who are your insurers ?

 

[Bux]

Did you tell your inusrance that them alloys can come as optional?

As soon as I said alloys they said no. Even if they were on the car when it was new they wouldn't let me. I only have to wait until i renew my insurance next year, then I'll put em on... or I might get some black ones

Hey. Nice car, alloys were shoddy. Who are your insurers ?

I'm insured with churchill, they were the cheapest I could find... but cheap is still expensive

 

[kaimcg]

Fully comp ?

 

[Bux]

Yeah, fully comp £1600

Did you try, Quinn Direct? they are normally pretty good for 1st yr drivers.
Well they were the cheapest for me for my first year, and best of all they allow any modification aslong as you dont touch the engine.

i was only 3rd prty fire n theft, and it was £1400 for my 98 reg 1.2 clio.

 

[Alastair.]

lol so if u bought a brand new car factory fitted with alloys, they will be like "no sorry sunshine, those alloys will have to be swapped for some steels with plastic trims"

 

[Bux]

Yeah I tried lots of places. And when I was getting things like £4500 as the cheapest on confused.com I just went directly to quite a lot and Churchill were they cheapest. They were also the cheapest for my brother when he passed 2 years ago

[wiley]

[Tigger]

Welcome on here mate, nice 1st car

 

[Leeshez]

Nice car. I was asked if a car had alloys and i said no idea it is factory standard. I knew that it had.

Awesome , where abouts around Bath are you? Im in Midsomer Norton

I don't really know what the differences are between mine and yours, except mine has red interior instead of the blue that yours does.

 

[Englebert]

Shame it has the red opposed the green seats, i would have made you an offer you couldn't refuse!

They're great first cars, enjoy!

 

[VeinAST]

Another local one!

Car looks tidy

 

[Reyes]

Tidy. Slammage in need.

 

[Bux]

Another local one!

Car looks tidy

Yup, hopefully I'll be able to turn up to a few meets in the future

The car wasn't very tidy inside when I got it, the previous owner didn't clean it at all when I picked it up. They even left £4 on the floor next to the passenger seat and the new Boyzone CD in the headunit.
The only problems on the outside are a big scratch on the bonnet and loads of light scratches over most of the car (except roof lol). Also he has hit something and dented the front of the car... atleast it only broke some plastic

 

[Bux]

Here's another pic which I just took, doesn't look very clean along the side but the bonnet is nice and shiny

Anyone wanna guess at what trims i have on? Pat on the back for the person who can get it.

[Redler]

I'm getting a dynamique spoiler soon as my 3rd high level brake light doesnt work. My dad ordered a new light and they sent the one from the black dynamique light instead of the red standard one...

So I have a choice of either a dynamique spoiler or a new red light. So i'm going with the spoiler. I got a quote today of £20 + VAT for one

 

[Kerryclio]

I thought that if the alloys came as standard the insurance should cover them? As i have alloys on mine?

 

[conneh]

Tom Buxton hmm
Dosn't ring any bells.
I know some people from Norton Hill tho, Maisey Ree, Jodie Winkler, Milly Cleal etc.. Mainly know/go out with that lot (For obvious reasons!)
I'm at Wirthlington, year 13.
