New Member - Manchester - 1.2 Dynamique

[welshname]

Just bought myself a clio 2 weeks ago after i crashed my corsa (although im kind of glad because the clio seems so much nicer to drive)

Have a few things in mind that i would like to do, but limited cash at the moment so it will be a slow progress.

What would be the best thing to begin with?

Welcome to the club. What ever you do, don't bother with the engine!

 

[welshname]

Not that stupid fortunatley. Im a massive fan of the euro look tbh, but undecided what i want to do with it. As its black, and the cars lines dont really stand out too well.

edit *although stupid enough to spell fortunately wrong *

 

[braderz1]

welcome to the club matey. if you like the the euro look. coilovers will drop it and some big bbs rims :approve:

 

[Riad]

[welshname]

ill see what time it is when ive finished fixing my mates pc. and also once me and my gf have been to her brothers to get his s**t together before his crazy ex throws it all in the road. bloody psycho, he's a DJ and last time they split up she came round to his mums house with all his CD's and snapped them up and posted them through the letter box.

 

[Zorr]

Hopefully we will meet on the road sometime or on the Trafford Centre meeting on 1st of Oct.

 

[welshname]

Altrincham to be exact - I am average 27 most of the days but when I sit in the Clio I behave like 7 years old boy with his favorite toy.

 

[welshname]

cool. im not sure i can make it to the wirral meet tonight, but the trafford centre 1 isnt a problem.

Im in salford mate!

 

[Curtis!]

Plenty of people around Manchester, KK's at TC is regularly where people meet.

Average age is low, but iirc Jonff is around 38 so he rockets that up!

 

[welshname]

he lives in urmston doesnt he. funny cause ive never seen his car driving about.

Tossssssseeeerrrrrrrrr <3 lol

 

[welshname]

well decided to upload the pictures of my last car after the crash. only got 1 of the front but thats where the damage was

i hit this

and i just had to stop 2 days ago when my mileage read this in my clio

 

[Jonff]

he lives in urmston doesnt he. funny cause ive never seen his car driving about.

I do indeed. You're more likely to hear it before you see it lol

 

[welshname]

is it you that lives in urmston jon? im there now on winchester road lol

 

[Curtis!]

I do indeed. You're more likely to hear it before you see it lol

Definately this!

How hard did you hit that Vectra?!

 

[Jonff]

Yeah, I live just off Broadway, (Davyhulme). Aye! I know Winchester road, that road use to be an absolute nightmare to drive down till they re-surfaced it a while ago.

 

[welshname]

i have a few friends who live down there. most live down kingsway though. i did see 2 clios the other day doing about 50 straight over the roundabout at trafford retail park heading back towards urmston way. one was blue but at this point i was still screwing my 1.2 sxi courtesy car about.

 

[welshname]

and pretty hard to be fair. he was waiting to turn right. and as you can see from the picture, his indicator light was out...

 

[blue 105 zed]

hollinwood so im close to u ill keep a eye out for a euro when u get going

 

[welshname]

hollinwood is real close. do you know alder road in failsworth?

 

[Curtis!]

If you know what day/time you saw them could help! Me/Jon was over that way last week iirc at some point.

Get a set of coilovers and go from there with the Clio IMO.

 

[blue 105 zed]

hollinwood is real close. do you know alder road in failsworth?

[welshname]

it was late on, about 9-10ish probably. you were going fast anyway.

 

[Jonff]

Probably wasn't me to be honest. The noise mine makes is pretty distinctive. lol

 

[welshname]

well it was f**king loud anyway. i heard them coming from lostock circle before i saw them.

 

[BIFCAIDS]

welcome to the club as long as you dont drive behind me and do your car like mine we'll get on

 

[sofaboy]

I spend most of my time in urmston, and use winchester quite regularly

 

[welshname]

[sofaboy]
