Third car! Piccies

[veaney]

Hi All,

Havent really introduced my car on here yet so here it is.

52 Plate Clio 1.2 16v
62k on the clock, picked it up for 3k part ex'd my fiesta.


Out with the old..

In with the new!

Current mods..

None lol just painted the calipers yellow, don't like the back one though. Stuck a beesting arial on and got some 6x9's in the boot & a new pioneer head unit.

Future Plans

Get it lowerd by about 40mm, and stick some white alloys on like this..

Getting it lowered, apparantly need to soak the torshen bar in wd40 for a week lol? And just need springs for the front.

Only other mod i want is tints. Don't really want to do anything to the engine because its not really worth it on a 1.2, may get a backbox though but only money will tell!

All comments will be appreciated!

Only on the mk1. Mk2 has a rear beam. There's a guide to changing springs on here. The principles are the same for all the mk2 reno's!

got 300 for my fiesta.

picked it up for 150 from some geezer in essex but it needed camshaft doing & tappids or something so just got a new engine put in it, all in all cost me 150 for the engine and 170 for it to be fitted, new oil and filter. Don't buy of some geezer in essex well you get what you pay for

im trying to find a pic of a clio same colour as mine, think it may be a 172 with really nice white alloys.

was thinking of getting a ph1 172 u can pick them up for 3 grand now can't you? trouble is my insurance quote was 2.5k on confused :s

Don't think you can get an RS Clio in Cyclone blue to be honest. Have been thinking of white alloys on mine, but not sure it will go.
