new 172 owner (Scotland)

[Craigstew172]

So im new to French cars im usually a jap guy but ive now decided to make my v1 sti impreza into a dedicated track and was then on the look out for a cheap fun daily driver. I originally was looking for a civic vti or something along those lines but my friend told me about a phase 2 clio 172 for sale at his work for cheap so i decided id give it a go bought it and now im loving it such a good little car. There are a few bits needing done like new wheels and tyres (i hate the wolfrace ones on it) discs pads service etc but as of this far anyway nothing but impressed with it.
Here are a few pics anyway.

My other car.

Welcome along bud...

Definitely get a thread up when it comes time to build the Impreza! I love the things!

As for the Clio, it just needs a different set of wheels for me.. I'm not a fan of the current set, but that's just my opinion.
All the best with the car, looks like a good base for you :up:

yeah the impreza is already a pretty high spec i will do a thread on it once it comes out of winter hibernation. the wheels and budget tyres will be binned as soon as i can find a decent set of 15s to replace them or if anyone does like them im happy to swap for some standard wheels ha
