The next Clio adventure

[Jonff]

After having an argument with a tree and losing in my Cup and it being wrote off I've moved on to another Clio. 3rd one this, I think I have an addiction problem lol.

Bought a blue ph-1 off my mate a couple of weeks ago, at 1st I hated ph-1's but over time they've really grown on me. I did say after my Cup I'd never own another Clio, Oh well! :evil:

Just a few pictures that were taken last week.

Very nice mate, how could you hate ph1s :rasp: ive had 3 Ph1s, 1 Ph2, & 1 182 & the ph1s were the best out the lot, youll love it.

You got any plans for it or leaving it as it is? has it already been lowered?

 

[Kane.]

Lovely colour, whats it like compared to the ph2 ?

 

[Jonff]

Started doing bits on it from day one

Up to now, I've put my exhaust and inter changeable decat, Mapped it via an RsTuner, Ph-2 rear lights, Colour coded door handles.

Plan to stick the brake set up I had on my Cup on it, Get my ph-2 rear bumper sprayed and fitted to it and then just general bits and bats really. Yeah it's on coilovers already, Fk Koingsports on the front and ASTs on the rear.

Feels alot better to drive than my Cup. Gearbox is so much tighter and the steering feel is a millions times better. Although the Cup was quicker than this one.

 

[Craig.]

Noooo keep the ph1 rear bumper lol.. How you finding the ph1 dash compared to the ph2 lol im so glad ive changed mine

 

[Jonff]

Lol. I have to stick a ph-2 rear bumper on to hide my so called stealth exhaust, it's annoying seeing it sticking below the current bumper. The dash doesn't bother me one bit, yeah it's a bit dated but as I say it's not an issue for me.

 

[BIFCAIDS]

Ooo first thing id do to a ph1 is a ph2 dash.

 

[Craig.]

haha ill let you off then if the ph2 bumper is serving a purpose :rasp:

 

[tommys]

I like it. I think these look better with the PH2 bumpers on.

 

[Jimbo_M]

Nice ph1 pal...probs my favourite colour in them this

 

[jim cook]

Nice example

 

[Brookie.]

Really like it!

Looks good John. I used to prefer the exterior and interior looks of the Ph2's, over the Ph1's, but since owning my Ph1, I wouldn't mind owning either now

 

[Christopher]

Looks great!

Don't put a Ph2 rear on there. :dapprove:

 

[Gadget man]

Agree with Christopher! Keep it standard! Too many Ph1's on here seem to be having 'transplants' with bits from Ph2's. It's either a Ph1, or a Ph2.

 

[Jonff]

Looks great!

Don't put a Ph2 rear on there. :dapprove:

Sorry Chris it has to be done. Just can't accept that ph-1 rear bumper, even more so with the exhaust hanging below lol.

Still think I do prefer the ph-2 looks tbh. But as I say, the ph-1's have really grown on me of late.

 

[Fletcher]

Nice. I do like blue ph1's.

 

[Christopher]

Fair enough, I was the first person to do the swap on here and immediately regretted it, despite not saying that at the time.

Still miss that car though. :dapprove:

You'll love it mate. I'll have a look at the next meet.

 

[The Chubby Pirate]

I had a Phase 1 now a 182 - i can say without any hesitation the Phase 1 was the better car.

 

[Jonff]

Cable throttle is so much better than the DBW set up on my Cup, although I'm not to keen on the ABS. Just doesn't seem to inspire confidence.
