My new turbo (1.2) clio

[Swift]

Just picked it up today, well pleased with it. It's still tight but def a lot more rapid than the normal 1.2 clios. I don't think the pictures do it justice though, will try and get some better ones up soon.

 

[J0sh]

Coilovers and some nice alloys will finish that off a treat. Whats performance like?

 

[Pep]

xenons on a 1.2?!

whats the spec list with equipemtn for them etc, really like the look of that actually...!

very nice car, how much faster you think it is, are they 100bhp?

 

[Ben.]

excellent mate!!i think your the first person on here to own one?

 

[Swift]

Yeah planning on just those two little extras once iv got the cash, nothing over the top. Yeah its 100bhp, took me by suprise first time I drove it as i'm only used to driving the standard 1.2 16v mk2

sh*te lol

 

[J0sh]

sh*te lol

lol, I wasnt expecting anything exceptional, im just curious as to why they'd bother if there wasnt much in the way to gain.

 

[tomhunt85]

xenons on a 1.2?!

Nope they're the sports style lamps with dedicated cornering lights, standard on the dynamique. They're the xenons if they have washer jets sticking out of the bumper like the 1*2.

sh*te lol

compared to a 2l yeah lol but I don't think you could do much better for a 1.2 - 1.4 plus i think its something like 47mpg

 

[V1NNY]

i've driven the TCE 100 and its got a bit of poke to it

 

[daydotz]

very nice ive got a soft spot for the sx ive got a dci86 on the way id keep the wheels personaly :rasp:

 

[Pep]

looks awesome mate, how much did you pay, options etc?

 

[Josh220]

looks really nice that. think it will look spot on lowered

they look like them its the same spec as a dynamique s + plus a body kit

 

[Swift]

looks awesome mate, how much did you pay, options etc?

Part exchanged my old mk2 1.2 for £3500 which knocked the £11.5 price tag down a bit. I wanted xenons but for some reason this model doesn't have them as an option. Everything else is standard, ie bodykit because its the sx version.

 

[Clio R]

looks nice mate just needs lowering

 

[Pep]

what stuff does it come with?
has it got rear discs?

really like the look of it, what power you think could be got from the engine, exhaust filter and remap etc?

never really liked the mk3's that much but loving that!

 

[daydotz]

ive got loads of toys on mine even the rare 5dr option lol apart from xenons :dapprove: i really dont need them as much as i wanted them(i dont do much night time driveing now)

id have had a dci106 version personaly

 

[Swift]

cheers guys. I know what you mean pepsi, I hated the new shape until I had a look at these, came along just after I had put an order in for another mk2 so had to cancel it all. It does come with rear discs but that about all I know! lol I didnt get a broucher because the dealer didnt even have one yet. Im sure once the kits available you will be able to squeeze a bit more out of it. I reckon the 0-60 is less than they actually say on the website. Go and have a test drive and see what you think

 

[Matta_88]

nicer looking than a 197 imo, nice one mate

 

[Pep]

yeah i think i might go to my local renault and have a spin in one.
is there any lag oir anything or just a smooth turbo?

saw somethig about these on the net a few months back, really interested now!
have they got decent seats inside?

 

[daydotz]

:S are you sure its discs its drums acording to my research its not
if i go back to a petrol it will be one of them my dci looks slower on paper


i need proof :S

 

[Swift]

:S are you sure its discs its drums acording to my research its not

err not to sure, I haven't had a proper look just going off what the dealer said. Pepsi - i'll upload couple interior shots for you

 

[daydotz]

fair point just take a few of the rear wheel for me i love the alloys ive got them on mine

 

[Marky_]

Oooh, a turbo. Not bad. I do like the look of them, but good luck keeping it clean

BTW, what insurance group is it?

 

[daydotz]

4e

 

[Swift]

A few more, sorry about the quality - 2mp camera phone...

 

[daydotz]

that sucks mine i expect will have drums dam you renault

 

[Swift]

that sucks mine i expect will have drums dam you renault

what version have you ordered?

 

[daydotz]

ive ordered a 5dr dyanamique dci86 compared to yours its a snail
ive not seen it yet though ive got a few more weeks till it arrives

 

[Pep]

nice one, looks good mate.

got aircon?

 

[Swift]

tell them you want to cancel and get an sx! Nope no air con, i think its a rip off plus it will slow down my car

 

[daydotz]

i think thats to late . i just remap it that will slove my performance issue its only a bodykit ive got so much more to keep me entertained ive climate card key rain sensor light sensor parnoramic sunroof folding mirrors cd changer parking sensors those alloys im adding that spolier to mine will do more mpg an its a lot cheaper to tax

 

[Pep]

lol, how much do renault charge for it?!

have these got the little computer in the dials for mpg etc?

sorry for all the questions just interested!

 

[Jay]

A brand new car without air con! I'd take it back.

it does you even get a real old fashion fuel gauge

 

[uhoh_spagettio]

Son,

That looks the sex!

 

[AlexS]

Air cons a waste of Vpower anyway, i wouldnt use it even if I did have it. I would rather spend my petrol on catapulting down the bypass once a week than freezing my b****cks off in the car.
