my new clio Sx turbo

[Alex5]

so after looking around i had my heart set on a 1.2 TCE SX. a Mk3 with a sexy factory body kit and tinted windows. i found a pretty cheap one with high miles and after advice about high milage on the forum i went for it.
3 hour train journey yesterday and drove it back it was a dream to drive, could feel the small turbo boost on the motorway if i put my foot down its really nippy for a 1.2 !
going to get a sports grill and thats it for now

it does have a turbo only a small one thou, it just gives a slight boost when you get to 3.5k /4k revs

my 1.2 mk3 can just about keep up with it but its still quite effective got any plans for the car???

Very nice indeed.

They go well for a 1.2 tbh, Kliokid the 1.2 non turbo is horrendous in a mk3, not even close to a turbo in terms of pace.

How many miles has it done buddy?

Really like the SX styling, my Mum has the 1.5 dci engine. Love the colour

I really like the SX range too. RS grill and coilovers and you're onto a winner.

106k miles .. How ever 9 stamps in service book

It really flys, combined with the look I'm already falling in love with it

i really like these, ive just chopped the 200 in and was looking at them but were still holding quite a bit of money in SX kit with nice options so ended up opting for a Twingo GT with the same engine

Lowz would set that off nicely.

Nice colour.
