I have had a few French hatches in my time, owning 4 R5GTT's and 4 205 Gti's about 10 years ago, found the Renaults more fun and better to drive and always liked a Renault sport clio. After selling my MR2 GTS Turbo, I bought a Seat Ibiza Tdi sport, remapped etc which was the biggest money pit and worst built car i have ever owned, so sold it and bought my Clio.
Looked round a few Clios and found this 1 with mods already done to it, owned by a mature owner for over 3 years.
This was how it was when i bought it (ad pics)
The car came with,
alloy bonnet and shift light,
Momo gear knob and handbrake handle,
Rear black lexus lights, :dead:
17" lightweight Kei racing wheels refurbed black with Rainsport 2s,
Koni adj. shocks,
Spax springs,
Powerflex wishbone bushes,
Goodridge brake hoses,
Magnacore leads,
K&N induction kit,
Ktec sports cat,
Magnex exhaust system,
Remapped with RR printout of 182fwhp.
Painted the calipers black and bought some fresh plain plates to tidy it up.
bought some phase 2 rear lamps to update and remove the lexus style ones,
from
to
much better!
Even though the car sounded great i was getting some serious heat soak to the air filter, especially around town,
so went from the k&n
to a CDA with caf and Samco elbow (not pictured)
Swapped a spare amp for a carbon splitter
My girlfriend bought me a Momo wheel for my birthday to replace my worn wheel
Decided to go for some smaller wheels and so sold my 17s and got some stock 16s
they are so much heavier than the 17s that the handling really suffered, i did not like them at all so are up for sale,
had a mini photoshoot with a best mates Lexus and my girlfriends MR2
I decided i want 16" Pro race 1.2s so bought some in matt black,
plans are to do the belts and new front brakes, then i would like some Recaros and go from there!
Hope you like
