My Cleee-O

[S23]

This is by faaar my most favourite 5 door ever!
i want your alloys haha

Cheers dude . I'm afraid you can't have them :rasp: .

I went from an Mx5 to a Clio due to a new arrival due in August! Was an Import Eunos Roadster. Lowered on Bilsteins, forged wheels, exhaust etc. Was the best car i've ever driven, and still is. Just felt complete if that makes sense?

Ah I seeee, congratulations . Yea mate that makes perfect sense, my mum used to have one and it was amazing to be in! Ever since she had her's I've always wanted one, will get one eventually . Sounds like you had a nice one. From accounts of being in the passenger seat I can vouch that they handle like they're on rails

That's the one?! I found that ad on PH and genuinely love it! Looks so gud mate, the splitter on the front, the colour, the condition, the mods. Perfect. Infact your ad made me want to get one in red. I won't be able to have one for a year or so yet though

 

[sussex_gti]

Yes mate, thats the number! Wasn't looking to sell yet, but my Clio came up at such a good price, it would of been ride to turn it down. Miss sneaking the back end out on damp roundabouts! If i had of kept it, it would of been wound down on coilovers, plastered in JDM stickers and would of been perfect. Its gone to a good home though, so i'm happy. I'd recommend one as soon as you can get one!

Sounds similar to what I want to do to one :rasp: ha, my mum will be jealous when I get mine. Nice to hear some positive feedback on them too, other than just 'you don't want one of those, there hairdresser's cars'. Ha.

 

[sussex_gti]

Yep, got alot of those type of comments, including a couple of best mates. Chucked them the keys, 10 minutes later they come back, grinning like a pair of Cheshire cats. Makes all the abuse worthwhile!

Yea, if mine isn't scuffing then it's parked. Ha. I've lost count of the number of times I've bottomed out in mine, lots and lots of times, just makes me laugh more than anything. lol

Good man! As long as its rust free, they are spot on. If you need any advice give me a pm.

Cheers for that dude Yea will definitely PM you if I get any closer to getting one. Ha, glad you like my current one though :rasp:

Its a sweet ride, nothing better than slammage and deep dish. The Diesel engines a good little number if in good shape as well, they haul the K12 Micra along quite well. Re-map on the cards?

Ha, that's exactly how I felt :rasp:. Yea it's really good actually, very fuel efficient if you treat it right, reasonably quick if you don't though . I'd like to get a remap, boost it a bit. But TBH I don't know if I'll bother. But who knows, I do want a bit more power out of it

[Naith]

well... never seen nor heard of this, and what can i say. kudos to you boyo!

big big fan, be nice to see it at some summer shows hopefully.

granted i'd change one or two bits but its not mine to do and thats the whole point, you've stuck with it and had a vision, something i really respect. (silvervisions? granted everyone does it but its needed, or maybe rainbow bulbs like i have, they look funky) i'd probably get the bumpers coded as previously as it smoothes the whole look but gloss black as you said could be clever too... so whatever way you go, good luck.

credit to your attitude and the site.

Cheers mate, means a lot . Glad you like it and the general direction it's headed. I have been thinking about indicators and that. I have something in mind though . Just out of interest where do you get the rainbow bulbs from? Cause I couldn't find them anywhere. lol. Yea, I'd like to take it to some shows and that this years, might head up to FCS this year, would be good fun. Anymore you'd recommend/going to? .

Indeed it is! :rasp: Did you get my PM mate? Has your mate got those fotos of mine uploaded? Would be nice to see them that's all

 

[Pasty]

I dont think he uploaded many, his memory card was screwed or something.

Ill chat him up and see if he's got any left on his camera.

oh and get it mapped next, you'll love it! mate of mine had a dci 105 and it was a weapon once he'd had it mapped. had a front mount off a megane on it for a while too!

My coilies are about 15mm away from the base, and now I haven't taken the adjusters out. But just thinking about your thread you probably have wound yours down a bit since you wrote this

I heard a massive bang when i came out of work last night, pretty sure i bottomed out on something lol. Its not leaking anything so its all good

I think we're exactly the same then. When i first dropped mine down i measured 15mm from bottom. But this time i counted 8 threads from bottom. Pretty much the same height then .......finally lol :rasp:

Bahaha. Yea man, I hit mine shed loads. The thing that killed it was landing directly on it after being in mid air doing 50. Ha. Seriously though, be careful with it cause it was £620 to get fixed!
