Thanks for looking.
 
Lovely ride height looks perfect too. I'm getting the f1's refurbed on mine next saturday I'm on two minds wether to go anthracite or silver.
 
Stunner, cant help thinking would look even better with colour coded side strips and re-painted calipers.
 
looks perfect, love it :)

Alright Liam lad :) You know who this is don't you?
You will get to see it next NE meet we go to.

Thanks mate,
It's very low indeed haha.

I think they both look good, Anthacite on Silver does look good.

There isn't a mark on these, person who refurbed them did a very good job.

Thanks Will,
It's on my 'to do' list, there is a tiny bit of rust coming in on the arches and a little bit above the drivers sideskirt, I will get these sorted at a local Paint shop to me along with getting the rub strips painted,

Going to ring them this week and see if I can get a quote and get it booked in and done in time for FCS.

Also where is the best place to buy car mats?
I've looked on eBay and there's none that take my fancy.

Thanks for comments.
 
photo *****! horney said this is quite rapid like, youll have to let me know next time you're out ;)

car looks awesome like, oh... new exhaust? i thought this had a twin exit?
 
Leave the side strips as they are! It breaks up the paint! They dont look right painted IMO!
 
I really like that, wheels looks great.

Just not so keen on the yellow fogs.

Thanks man
I don't think I'm keen either, it's only a plastic film that I can peel off.
So might do that.

Do you know what paint they used for the wheels ? and what is it lowered with ? cheers.

No idea mate,
I can find out for you.
I need to take a close up picture because it has like a 'speckled' effect which looks great.

Im driving it tonight for work, keen I know,
Yeah it's pretty quick, he's not seen it yet.

I'll take you out in it.

Thanks mate.
I've always liked Black bump strips, my old 106 GTI was like this:

Nice and clean dude, i'll text ya during the week and you can pop round or something. Get your FCS sh*t sorted aswell lol
 
u running spacers on the front? what size? cheers. nice car btw.
 
Luffly, both! :)

How much has it been lowered? I'm debating what to do about my ride height atm.

I love the yellow fogs, reminds me of my old mk1 :D
 
Going to the Preston Park meet tomorrow so thought I'd give it a good clean and Wax.
First time I've used my Wax, DoDo Juice Supernatural

Enjoy

Time for an update:

Went to USC this weekend, Not good pictures but some Pre USC Prep work.

Fit chrome indicator bulbs front and back:

IMG_1729.webp


IMG_1731.webp


Front aswell and set about removing yellow film from fogs:

IMG_1725.webp


Then I fit a 102mm Cold Air pipe onto my V6 airbox, made a massive difference.

Then at Santa Pod I ran 14.2 on the 1/4 mile at 96.8 mph
Then I put it on a dyno dynamics rollers:

A blurry picture of me on the way home:

All in all a top weekend, been well impressed with the Clio. Kinda want to keep it now, was thinking of selling up.
Cheers

looks lovely mate! Thats a nice power figure you're putting out!

Thanks mate. She sure does pull well.

What mods to have you got mate to make that figure?

Dan

- Clio V6 Airbox with ITG Filter and 102mm cold air pipe.
- Ktec straight through decat.
- Ktec stealth system.
- Matched inlets.
- RS tuner remap.

Before the rolling road arguments start I will say it was making good times and before I went on dyno a DC2 Teg with breathing mods made 198bhp which is basically standard power.

Also I think Dyno Dynamics are quite reputable rollers.

Cheers for comments
 
Cool mines pretty similar bar the cold air feed and matched inlets. Mine made 170 with good torque. Might be worth me investing in matched inlets and remap it again. Mmmm dc2, started me thinking again lol

haha that's decent, I always think Ph1's make good power, seems like the thing with Mk1 and Mk2 VTS's. for whatever reason Mk1's always make better power.
 
Today gave it a wash, first one since coming back from USC.

I had the rolling road graph laminated:

Hope you like them all.
I am possibly thinking of selling up.
Not exactly sure on price offers around £2,000.

It's decent on fuel, averages about 35mpg around town and 47mpg on motorways but I want something better than that for now.

If anyone is interested or wants more info or to come and see the car then PM me.

I really don't want to sell it but hmm lol.
Never thought I'd end up liking a Clio.
 
Very tidy. It's nice to see someone else rocking yellow lamin-x on the fogs. :)

Just read your latest update lol!

Loving the look of it!

Still want to know the size of your front plate, and where one would acquire on from ;)

Haha thanks mate,
The plate itself is the same size it's just the font that is smaller.
No idea where it's from.

liking how it looks now over the 1st pics,

what suspension is it on?

Thanks mate, I think the subtle changes make a big difference.
It has Raceland Coilovers :(
If I had my own way it would either have some Gaz or Bilstein B15's.

I love that a lot. Not a fan of the yellow calipers though.

Thanks Will!
Well it was a hard choice, they really needed painting they just looked horrible, I normally don't like painted calipers.

I was going to paint them Red and then I thought Blue, so I thought painting them Yellow was playing it safe lol ;)

Haha, Had to take them off they were starting to peel off.
