Always love white mk2's. Not keen on the carbon bonnet though.

Did you have the spray job done or did you buy it like that?

Bang on :D

Love the last shot! Shows off the bonnet awesome

New style renaultsport badge, white wing mirrors and black front bumper inserts and this'd be perfect. IMO :eek:

Cheers pal, what do you mean by front bumper inserts, the washer blanks?

Bought it like this mate, think it must have had a shell change at some point in its life, i rang renault and they said it left the factory blue.

Sweet! I want a closer look at your Clio, do you go down Mac D's? I've seen an Arctic 182, Mosley's Bean 182, a LY 182, and a Cup ending in HLK around Tiv, you know anyone else with a Clio? We should meet up!

Sorry mate whats SRS?

Serious.
About being re-shelled... surely a more reasonable explanation would be that it has been resprayed at some point? Considering Renault didn't ever do any white 1*2's (other than the race cars)... I doubt someone would go to the effort of swapping shells TBH mate.

Anyway, get a splitter on it! It'd finish it off nicely!

I echo the comment about tyres. I would say get a splitter (carbon would match your car better) and spray your boot button white! I really don't understand why hardly anyone n CS colour codes the boot button - makes it look soooooooo much better!

My old man was a panel beater and sprayer for 20 odd years he reckons its had a shell change. Theres no blue anywhere, not under any of the carpets or anything. You can scrape away the paint in the boot and no blue so who knows :/

didnt they make these in France? Could it or the shell come from there at some point?

Love the colour and the car, perfect ! :p

If there are a few clios in Tiverton we should sort out a meet in Exeter or something and get the word out, if it was big enough I'm sure people would come a little distance for it. I know I'd come up from torquay if it was a well organised meet!

This Saturday, carting down in st eval. I'm considering going but the old man also wants his car detailing for his fathers day present haha, then an awesome beer festival in the evening, tough decisions to be made, but we'll see if many more people are up for the meet, if so get a thread started.
