Thinking of getting a 172

[Andyrg@ ClioTurbo]

Hey Guys.





Im currantly a Megane Coupe Owner But im nearly 99% got this Clio 172 Sports.



Any advice on it its a W 2000 with 39,000 FSH and its coming with a 2 years Parts warranty, Any thing to look at as its already had a push start button on it so soem ones been having soem fun with it. Its silver and was pretty nippy on the test drive, Are they Quick? and what can you eat up for breakfast?

Dont get the 2.0 owners started.

Basically loads of cars most big sporty things have 50% more weight so need 50% more power just to keep up (until drag becomes a factor)

 

[Andyrg@ ClioTurbo]

Dont get the 2.0 owners started.
