This look odd at all



The 1.2 Clios is infact 1149cc but its called a 1.2 for some reason.

I think its like BMW saying the 318 it should/used to mean a 3 series with a 1.8 engine but its infact 1.9 I belive. Same for the 535d its a 3.0 liter diesel.

The new shape came in on a the Y plates hence why Evo had a Y reg new shape 172.
 


That is a weird one as its got the same interior (bar the colour) of the X reg, MK2 phase 1 Clio Grande I had but has a phase 2 exterior!! :confused:

318 - 2.0

316 - 1.8

Just to be clear :-P
 


that also doesnt have the renault badge on the boot which was a facelift part on the mk2 phase 2
 


Cat D

Broke in through the boot, then damaged dash perhaps.

Parts obtained cheaply from another car?
 


I dont think so Day172, it actually says its a Grande RN, non of the new shapes have that title.
 


That doesnt look right, isnt the front end from an newer car ?



The boot button at the back should be the silver one, with the renault badge..

or am i wrong
 


Its been recovered from Cat D damage so front and back bumpers were replaced with the Ph2 rather than Ph1. 1.1 becuase cc is 1149. ;)

Thus the interior is Ph1

Then that would also include replacing the front wings and headlights..

And more no doubt...
 


there are loads of hybrid ones about my ex-driving instructor had phase 1 mk 2 51 plate with a phase 2 interior and that was bought brand new
 


I emailed him about these points and he replied,
