Well after saving up for a while, I've finally bought my new car. A Renault Sport Clio 182 FF in Racing Blue. It's the colour that always stood out from the rest to me, and I've wanted one before a even started to drive. So it's a dream come true

The car came with FSH, belts done by Fred. And currently sits on 65,000.

It already has a Yozza fitted (cat still in place), Eibach Sportline springs and a carbon splitter. So there's not much that needs doing to it to be honest.

The only bad news is that the car won't be driven on the road until the end of August. Simply because the insurance drops by a fare amount. So it's going to be a long 2 months

Anyway here's a couple of pictures

I'm not too sure at the moment. I always said they better without, but now I think it suits the colour. I'll have to see..

 

[Jon.G]

Awesome mate. I bet you're over the moon!

It's been a long time coming. I assume you'll be bringing this to TRAX this year! Plenty of time to get a DA over it, Amigo and about 10 layers of Glasur.

Diadems too <3

I thought the 182 cup was the only one that had the stripes.

 

[chriscummins7]

That looks superb mate, really does!

I had the dilemma of wait or pay more... I paid

No, FF's did too. It might have been an optional extra.

As soon as a saw the advert, I knew it was the one.

I love your's though

 

[Eddie.]

Fantastic mate.

Welcome to ownership of the best colour

I loved the stripes when I first put them on mine, but I rapidly became bored of them and got rid.

 

[Whirly172]

looks clean mate, always liked RB's, keep the stripes tho

 

[MatthewR]

Congrats on the purchase! Look forward to seeing it.. Will CSS be its first big outing if your not insuring it until August?

 

[Jon.G]

You could spec it with RB. Only 64 non-cups were spec'd with it.

When I bought my RB I was going to wait a month until my renewal before using it as it was about £250 to swap my current policy over for that last month.

2 days before I picked it up I called my insurance and whacked it on the credit card lol

 

[Bobby.]

Looks tidy!

LOL I don't blame you though to be honest.

At least by doing it this way, I can get it cleaned up properly. And fit a few bits.

 

[jenic]

LOL I don't blame you though to be honest.

I took mine to Wales for a week that month too as I was off. Most people look back at paying a lot for insurance and regret it but tbh I don't, I'd pay it again, it was well worth it.
