[CocoPops]

Im relatively close to you (Bicester).

Ive got a proper 182 (its up for sale tho )

 

[Munday]

Thanks guys! Yeah, I love it to bits! My previous car was a 1.1i saxo so the Clio is very different to me.
Do you ever have LAMs or local get-togethers?

 

[L1oyd V]

lovely mate.. enjoy

 

[CocoPops]

Do indeed.

Im your area rep and cover oxfordshire/north wilts/northants etc

There are quite a few things going on at the moment, french car show at end of may is probably the main one.

Once thats out of the way, Ill look at organising a local meet.

Quality car. I love racing blue with gordini stripes. One thing though. You might want to get the washer blanks (below the headlights) colour-coded like on the 172 cup as the black bits look a bit out of place and are iritating when polishing.

Hope you have fun with it and dont end up in a tree after the slight upgrade from 1.1 saxo to 2.0 clio

 

[Munday]

CocoPops - Oh right cool, how do I go about signing up? I want to become a member but apparently they are not taking any registrations at the moment?

andy - Thanks, where can I get the washer blanks from?

 

[andy_leitch]

no no no. youve already got them. they are unpainted matte black on your car but you can find a colour coding FAQ on the forum thatll tell you how to paint them (if you want them to blend more). i suggest you look for pics of a 172 cup and youll see the difference,

 

[Munday]

Oh right lol! Thanks mate, I will look now

Beautiful mate love the racing blue with stripes on!

Nice machine, your cup badges look very low though. I fitted mine myself this weekend based on pictures Id seen, and theyre a lot higher than yours. I guess they just get slapped on in any old place at the docks

Picture showing my badge position...

Lovely car love the colour... enjoy it

Is it just me or are the stripes not supposed to come down to the bottom of the boot line?

LOL its never seen any polish yet. In fact, it was fairly grubby in those pics, and it defo needs some tyre black. She will be getting a waxing sometime during this summer though.

No, bought it from Crossroads Renault Kidlington. Its not my nearest Renault dealer, the closest (Abingdon) kept messing me round over getting a test drive.

Thanks for all the kind comments, will be meeting some of you next Tuesday I think as I have been invited to the meet near Maidenhead.

 

[STEVE182CUP]

Munday,how much did you pay for your cup.
