The punto boys talk about the V6 ...



  Der Panzer
Page one is just silliness. As it goes on some people with an idea pop in.

As it goes I don't rate the V6 either. Yes, I know I've never driven one etc, blah blah blah. I just think there are better ways to spend to money. Could be wonrg, but I doubt it. ;)

The spelling is brilliant

"there was 2 much traffic to try anyfin stupid and go after him"

Shows the level (in my opinion!)

Like he would of caught up with him anyway!

All the punto's round my area are driven by complete chavvy tossa's... I did see one nice looking one once though :)

Most of them were reasonably complimentary I thought, apart from the few who were a bit clueless.

I've had my fair share of puntos, used to love them! No way as quick as a v6, thats just crazy!

it annoys me when people are so ignorant about other cars.
Try improving your knowledge on them first!!!

Members of cliosport are so much more open-minded ;) thats why this is blatently the best forum on the net

I would have disagreed with that if the XROC forum was still going... however looking at many other forums (even ones that should be into the same stuff [ie. WC].... i have to agree with you

To be fair those gt puntos are quick cars but comparing one to a 172/182 is silly and comparing one to a V6, well.......................................no contest really is there!

sumone said they saw one in a scrapyard and were dissapointed to see the arches are just a bolt on extension....

that cant be right can it? unless hes seen a poor v6 bodykit on a normal clio...

iirc they are an extension

The wings themselves are bolded on but there are bits which are part off jointed to the shell from new.

At the end of the day its all realy removable it woulnd't be effective to make it out of solid stucture.

I think that they are quite quick in a straight line but they arent very good in the corners.


hahahah cant beleive i heard that from a punto driver! puntos handle bollox doesnt matter what suspension you put on it, the chassis is toss!
 
LMFAO @ post #3 and the boxing smiley. I nearly spat my coffee all over my screen. Classic post. Post of the year :star:

Such a breath of fresh air being referred to one of these threads to find they majority of them well mannered, respectful, and open minded to other marques.

God forbid they ever visit Cliosport.

Am I missing something or would a 190bhp punto not actually give a standard v6 a run for its money? V6s arent "that fast" A coilovered tuned punto would be all over a v6. Fair enough its comparing tuned with standard but theres wouldnt be a great deal off difference (apart from the in the punto you'd look like a chav ;))

Disagree that a clio v6 is a supercar too TBH

I would have thought so due to it power to weight? my old 200bhp 5GTT would piss all over my V6 due to its weight.

I would never call the V6 a supercar either, but it has a supercar layout/looks (like your VX, only with better pwr to wight...lol)

I have just had a gander, and to be honest there pretty knowledgeable about the clio range. A few people aside they were open minded and quite complimentary.... a nice forum to have and be in, and as usual things have got dragged out of proportion!!
Christ knows what other forums think of us its quite embarrassing at times...

ummm I feel the erge to register and post up abusive comments! must hold back...

Oh well done, you did us all proud :rolleyes:

Luckily they didn't rise to you and your 'supercar'.

They seem like a really nice bunch, I wonder if other car clubs have the same impression of us?
