V nice car Looks v tidy!!

 

[Aluco]

mmm i like that its well nice, what happened to the standard pedals tho ?

could have a smaller steering wheel too but apart from that it looks gorgeous

 

[Shotgunsjay]

ace! unsure on the bus steering wheel tho...

 

[wogger]

Pedals came on the car, there going to be replaced with some new ones from Renault as soon as pay day comes. As for the wheel, believe it or not I find it makes the driving positions loads better plus its not that big in the flesh. lol

Cheers for the replies

 

[makavelli]

looking good, crying out for some new wheels bolts tho lol

 

[wogger]

Im just waiting for the wheels to turn up then im going to have to get sum new bolts, dont think rusty bolts will ever be cool.

ph2 rear bumper and it would look mint

 

[fuzzi]

stunner mate nice rubber

 

[wogger]

Iv bin playing with the idea of ph2 back bumper, but wernt sure if to go for the twin pipes or just play it safe with the 172 ph2??
Just want to see how the new wheels look, then i think its going to be coilover time!

 

[Aluco]

could be cool with a 182 bumper actually the exhaust would be a pain though because of the spare wheel well. Personally would just go for a 172 bumper and get a recessed system made into the bumper

 

[wogger]

I quite like not seeing the back box though, makes it look bit smoother if you know what i mean.

 

[wogger]

just picked these up!

Just a quick pick of the old ones

:evil:

 

[wogger]

Another quick pic while the weathers nice

 

[DebV6]

Looks a minter!

Is that steering wheel for real? You could steer the SS Great Britain with that.

Oh, and pmsl @ your name.

172 i meant would finish the rear look off

looks sweet

what miles did you get out the old ones??

 

[Ex-User (19928)]

Steering wheel looks just what the Clio needs tbh.

I found the ideal position for the pedals left you too far away from the wheel.

 

[iimushroomzii]

You need to sell your number plate to Winston! Hes a proper Wigga!

Lol, I love the daniel ! I was just thinking the same things.

cars nice apart from the steering wheel.

I think its about 3month :dapprove: but i do 50 miles a day round trip to work, so its not that bad.

As for the steering wheel, i think i need to take another pic because its only 350mm! lol

Cheers for all the replies as well, like it says in the title its my first go at Clio ownership, all ur views and comments are welcome, even when taking the p*ss out of my number plate!

 

[cat171]

350mm ? A standard one is about that size, or maybe a touch bigger.

 

[Ash87]

some nice mods so far, looks good

 

[wogger]

Im not sure what size a standard steering wheel is? I thought 350mm was just about right, any smaller and my hands would meet in the middle!
To be fair any wheels better than the tatty thing I took off, I think renault made the standard one from cheese.

 

[Tigger]

Looks great
What did you have before the Clio?

Iv had a civic 1.4 twin carb, that was a little stripped out track car but i stuck that into a fence. Then I bought a 1.5lsi civic and did the whole JDM thing, never got round to fitting a teg type r lump. If im honest I miss that little civic , i ort to have kept it and turned it in2 a proper track monster.

Wogger I had a EP3 Type R. Tuned it a lil bit (Kakimoto Exhaust, AEM Filter) But sold it, bought a Focus ST. Miss it so much. Now sold the Focus ST and Bought A 172 to track. I like your mods, even the steering wheel, I prefer suede tho. How many miles u get out of the tyres? Roughly 3000?? Are they worth it?? And if it is 3000 miles is taking it slowly looking after them or having a bit of fun

I was looking at getting an EP3 while looking at the Clio but the insurance was mad! Nearly 3 x more. As for the tyres!! there the best mod iv had on any car, at the end of the day its the only thing thats in contact with the ground and you get what you pay for.

Cheers again for ur views
