Re: Picked up a 172 from a memebr here !!!

Looks the mutts nuts! I'd ditch the tints and keep it fresh, good work fella!

Right next week the rest of the tints will be going....

And also will get a few more bits done on the interior !!!

Then i will start to run out of ideas on what to do next lol!!!

Maybe tidy the engine bay more, don't think I want to go for more power !!!!

I love the interior, i'm in the process of pulling bits of my trim off to give them a coat of satin black,
do you have any pics of the door cards, have you had the door handles painted black aswell?

Also how did you get the internal light housing off just pull, or is there a special way of doing it without breaking the thing?

Cheers guys.... Tints have now gone :)

And a few more bits in the post to mr Austin porter to be re-trimmed

Dave Just pull on it... It just pops off but be careful not to pull too hard and pull the looms behind a part lol

I sent all my bits to spray shack well worth it ;) the finish on the interior light alone was Worth the money !!!

And no have not done the door handles yet !!!

Really nice little car that, mate. Glad the tints have gone, they really don't suit the Clio range IMO.

Top effort all round. How much was the steering wheel retrim out of interest? Looks like a good job.

Cup spoiler makes Monaco's looks so much better (well tbh, most RS's lol) Fitted one to mine not so long ago and now seeing it with a standard one in pics makes it look naked!!

  Mk2 Ph2 172
Looks like I will be keeping the Clio for now so....

I put my private plate on today as I only had a few weeks left on retention so rather than re new it I chucked into on the 172 :)

Clio needs a good clean lol

Forgot to mention I have the electrical fault light on the dash sometimes when I start the car ( heart beat monitor one )

Thought it might be the coil pack on its way out ?

So changed coil pack but had the plugs, leads and ht leads Sitting around to do too... So done them!!!

Still have the problem... If the fault light is there it don't start but once it's off it's fine ???

Also replaced the temp sensor .... I now get full revs again :) it no longer thinks it is cold all the time :)

Glad to see it's still looking good mate! Miss this car alot! Had to get sensible with a diesel golf now so seeing this makes me really miss the fun you can have in these little cars!

Looks like it's been through a few changes, like the wheel and alcantara!

Yes mate I have put my stamp on the little Clio :)
Very good little car :)


Wanna buy it back lol
 
  Monaco Ph2 Clio 172
Ha, I probably would mate, but just bought myself a new car. It's good to see you've put some time and £ into it. Keep it as long as you can I'd say, you'll only miss it once it's gone!
 
  Maybe a 172 Cup..
Love it! pastieman.
I take it from all pics that you like your Trendlines......; )
