My Clio 172 Cup... the start



  EP3 Civic Type R
Just realised I've hardly posted any pics of my Cup since I got it last July.
Still in love with it, like I only bought it yesterday!

Got a full Yozzasport exhaust waiting to go on, some 40mm lowering springs (coilovers coming in the summer), wheels are going white then I'm going to be looking at some engine work to get a few more horses out of the engine. (Eventually TB's and an attempt at a 'reliable' 220-240bhp)


My old valver... that some people might recognise more-

Had a Fiesta RS Turbo inbetween- and now the main love of my life...

Top pic of cup was in August, bottom one was today- not much change! I've got important bits like servicing and cam/aux belt out the way first.

Btw- pics look distorted as photobucket resizes them. Grr! Thanks for comments!

I don't think anyone likes my car!!! :-(

I've just purchased some silvervisions also- as I realised how crap the orange bits look in the indicator.

I have the Blue Oval... it's just in a mass of bits whilst I decide whether to resurect it- it's still sat here, with the Cup in the garage- can't seem to let it go!

It's going to be a modern valver look-a-like soon matey ;)

Nice reminds me of my old one. Can't beat Mondial in the sun. I'd keep the wheels silver, works better with the blue imo

Cheers all- Defo going white with the wheels... all my alloys have been white in the passed. I have what some might say, a 'fetish' for them!

Can't wait to get my Yozza exhaust on now when I get some free time next week.

Pic of the old blue oval as requested- sat rustung in the garage minus wheels, interior and a few other bits at the moment as the Cup took all my attention away!!! ;-)

White wheels are the way forward, cleaning them however, is not! :(

Your Valver looked good, better than the Cup I think!

I'll just ignore that chavy red thing! :p
 
  EP3 Civic Type R
It's not chavy you goon! Apart from the wheels and bit of engine work it was all standard bodywork :p

I loved my Valver- I'd love a stripped out one someday to have as a track toy.

Thanks...

De-fried egged it today by getting some Silvervisions. Camera flash doesn't help, but you guys are right- it transforms the front end

Very nice fella. I'll keep an eye out for you if I'm ever over your way...only in Darwen so not far off :)
