Hi, Im new to the forum and will be soon purchasing a 172 cup, hopefully in mondial blue! Have been reading hundreds of posts on here and it has helped me set my mind on a Clio! Have previously owned a mk1 clio 1.4 8v as my first car, then moved to the blue oval for a mk1 focus 2.0 esp and now want something with more power! Will purchase my car once my funds are transfered into bank, hopefully sometime today! Haven't had a chance to test drive any yet so cant wait to get out in one! Will be nice to give my mates mini more of a run for his money, although I know I'm still guna be about a second(ish) slower to 60 than him!

Hi mate,

Welcome to the club.

Have you found a 172 Cup that you like? If you want to have a look around one then your more than welcome to come and view mine. Would also give you a good idea what to look out for when buying one for yourself!

What mini is this? if its a cooper s then the clio will match it to 60 no problem! an s works and you have no chance in standard form lol

Howdy!

I work in Worthing, you're welcome to come and have a look around mine if you're passing, although it's pretty far from standard.

Where abouts you live mate? I've seen a few i like, bit of a treck away so havent checked them out! Don't mind travelling though, just more time/fun on the way home! Il never beat his mini, it's a beast, jus wana have abit more fun and maybe overtake him when he's refueling! He's got a cooper s with a full thruxton 240 kit on it and one of the sexiest interiors I've seen!

Hmmmm sounds niiiiice! I live in Storrington mate, you must know where that is? just down the A24 near washington.

Well best thing you can do is see a few examples off here and then go searching. will give you a better idea of a decent example when you see one. if you dont mind me asking, whats your budget? i know there are a few for sale within a 20mile radius or so

Burn is a spirited drive, blaze is what I'd associate for a sneaky fag or a joint. I may be wrong?
