Old Car/New Car

[Nyall]

I traded in my 1.4 Dynamique for something a little quicker on Saturday.

Here's a few pics of my old baby on the day I got her...

After a bit of tinkering she ended up looking like this...

Lowered on Apex springs, Silver Turinis wrapped in ContiSport Contact 2s, bee-sting aerial, RenaultSport grille, OSRAM Nightbreakers and polished by DA by myself.

Loved that car, it was my first car but now I'm moving onto bigger and better things. A RenaultSport 182 to be precise.

The day I got her, again photographed on my Grandparent's driveway. Spooky lol.

Lovely!

 

[leeds_182]

A natural progression.

The dynamique looked really nicely done.

 

[jenic]

Best RS clio, FF RB :approve:

Nice one mate, although it should be my car sitting on your nans driveway.

...sounds wrong doesn't it!

 

[jim cook]

Sweet

 

[Joe#]

Awesome mate. Just done the exact same upgrade myself

 

[VIICarCare]

lovely that

 

[Nyall]

Cheers for all the comments people!

That does sound wrong Chris! Have you sold your RB yet?

I'm loving the 182, everytime i turn the key and the engine starts it puts a big old grin on my face.

RB is such a gorgeous colour, a real head-turner! I get looks everywhere I go haha.

I've kept the Turinis that were on the Dyna, I reckon I'll have them refurbed but don't know what colour, or if I should keep them fresh and silver...

Think I'll leave her standard for the time being and enjoy her.

Nice love the colours !!!!

 

[Matt W]

Lovely. Your 1.2 was nice so carry on with the 182

 

[Marky_]

Your 1.4 was tidy as well. Some good little touches on it.

 

[arg_carra]

Both cars extremely tidy - nice upgrade, enjoy

 

[James28]

Cracking upgrade mate. Literally exactly the same as me, except my first car was a black 1.2 not 1.4

RB + Silver Turinis FTW!

 

[Whirly172]

Wrong, but so so right.

lol, it's still for sale, a few emails and pm's here and there but nothing serious. Someone is hopefully viewing it this week though so we will see.

Silver turinis mate, 100%.

That's lovely, nice upgrade mate!

 

[andywa]

Very nice mate.

 

[Rhauri]

Lovely, one of the best colours and I love those wheels.

I'm in Southport too, looking for a 172 once my S2000 sells. A friend & colleague of mine (username: Chee172) will also be putting his PH1 172 back on the road when his 350Z sells too - so there will be a little collection of us in Southport very soon!

 

[JakeJ]

how old are you if you dont mind me asking? thinking about doing a similar upgrade

 

[ekaJ]

Whats happened to this mate?
