My New Brand New Mk3 Clio

[cat171]

yeah get some pics up, i've seen a couple of new clios about & they look quite nice.

Talking about top end etc, a dude i know used to have a new fiesta 1.3 8v & reckoned it would go 118 mph (the book fig was only 96 lmao) he did the top end with four of us in it - just shows how much the speedo over read, typical ford !

Friendly reminder.

ClioSport and it's staff do not condone illegal acts or misuse of cars on the roads they are driven on. Our rules incorporate any posts that break the law. Posts from members or users "boasting" about breaking the law will be removed.

In simple terms... if you do 120mph on the public roads then keep this information to yourself, do not post it on the forum.

Talking about potential top speeds and speeds obtained on a track is fine.

Calling a public road a "track" or "private road" to get around the rules is normally obvious and posts will still be removed.

Is a parellel dimension ok ?

Yes, unless you can prove that they don't exist?

Oh and the extra space comes in a treat when tryin to climb bk into the front seat, if you know what i mean ;-) ;-)

dirty b**ch... quality

120 m.p.h. in a 1.4?

Do me a favour. Indicated speed maybe, reality, no sir.

allans old 1.2 dynamique done 118 GPS reading with only a catback exhaust and pannel filter

congrats on the new car, quite like the new clio its growing on me, still prefer the MK2 Ph2/3 looks wise though!

You mean 20mph, down a steep hill.

I had a 1.2 8v as my first car

So how can someone say it is on a track without saying it`s on a track?! :S

Re-read what I wrote and think about it for a minute.

Mind bullets!!! Its telekinesis Kyle

 

[Chris n nic]

hmmm so as long as you say track and not "track" then it won`t get deleted...

 

[Dash]

You have to say "I raced him off the pedestrian crossing in the outside lane by the chippy at Silverstone"

dirty b*tch... quality

haha, after reading this whole thread, that was the only comment i picked up on too.

Pics of you and the car are needed to see exactly what you mean about the space in the back. As i've found being 6'2" in the back of the mk2 clio is a bit of a struggle.

*sigh*

If the post states on a track but clearly is not then it will be removed.

 

[FlamingMonkey]

How do you know its not on a track?

I'm guessing you use magic, its the only possible solution in this case.

 

[Chris n nic]

I wish I had a green name and could talk down to people. Basically it depends on wether you think they are being honest or not...Photographic proof and a letter from a responsible citizen is probably the next `law`

he did, look what happened though...

Chris,

Thankyou for applying to become a moderator on Clio Sport. Each application is given the utmost consideration (except Jesus' cos he's a rate tw*t) but unfortunately we cannot give you a position at this time. Overall we were impressed with how you handle yourself on the forum, but we are looking for people that have no interest in Clio's and own different cars and would ask that you be more of a condescending prick for future consideration. Meet this criteria and it's yours.

Regards,

Da Management

wow... so that's why they turned you down... harsh man! :clown::rasp:

 

[susanamck]

I would sell the 182 for one of these, tho i do miss doing 110mph in 4th gear at the rev limiter, then putting it into 5th for a nice stable cruise on the track...

I would buy one, tho these are very very very overpriced for a clio. Dealer wanted £12,000 for a 1.4 privledge 5 door clio, had the alloys, air con packs etc. Come after March i expect these prices to fall and then i can chop one up for under £9,000 - £10,000. With the issues ive had with the clio in the past 13months with the 14 warranty claims i suspect i should get it for free...

Tho a letter to AutoExpress and Renault Uk is inbound about the claims and what can be done about all this trouble ive had.

Id buy a used one of these tomorrow, tho as there are not many made so far, the prices are held until the production numbers out does demand.

lol it looks huge! next to that vectra!

 

[Steviant]

See they didn't bother to move the engine start button over from the LHD ones. Very lazy Reno, indeed.

 

[Neil G]

I did look at a Mk3 Clio in the Renault showroom and wasn't overly keen on it....could have been because it was in red though or because I was more interested in the Renaultsport Megane outside

Hope it goes well....certainly looks good in black

 

[ukaskew]

Any engine bay pics? Access looks a little tight with that bonnet line, probably just an illusion though.

 

[David_Snaresbrook]

Are these keyless entry/start then?

 

[Daniel]

Why Go for keyless option and not aircon??!!

 

[_Kenny_]

I saw a mk3 on the way to work today, looks so HIGH! It was parked next to some estate and looked bigger lol

 

[kyle d]

i have a dci 100 and i aint done far off 125.

 

[Temp]

Drove behind one today......what can i say.....boring. Looks like the b*****d offspring of a 206/micra. IMO

 

[AliasOmega]

i like em...id have one if i could find one cheap enough.

And the bonnet release is still on the wrong side, at least they put the windscreen wipers the right way round this time. Not like any of its a major problem, engine start would get to me though.

Yeh would be interested to see this too.
