Thought iI wanted a Cup but ended up with...

[GazP]

Long story shortish I left the Clio Sport scene 2-3 years ago and ever since have wanted my old sport back. Thought I wanted a Cup but after viewing a few all over the country I couldn't find 1 I'd be happy with. All the Cups in my price range that I looked at (upto £4500) had either been ragged, neglected or chaved. I've always had a thing for the phase 1's but didn't want 1 a silver 1 (nothing wrong with silver btw) so when the above car came up for sale (46'000mile minter) I shot down to see it (400+ mile round trip) and the rest is history. On the drive home she performed perfectley and even though most of it was on the m1 I had a big grin on my face!

Here she is...

when I get chance to give it a wash I'll post some of my own pics up.

Lookin good mate lovin the blue. Im in the exact same boat as you, I was away collectin my own little non silver ps1 172 (pics to follow when washed lol) yesterday and had a few miles to cover via plane, train, taxi and boat.
Your right about the big grin on your face i had the exact same although this my first clio sport and i was plesently surprised to say the least.

Nice, rare colour too.

Liking the sudden influx of the Odyssey's lol. Always thought there should be more around given how many were produced. Looks like another minter.

 

[philmots]

LIKE that.

[Aluco]

Lovely colour.

 

[GazP]

Gave it a quick clean today...

I wasn't sure if it was Odyssey blue or Monaco!? It is a lovely colour which ever it is.

 

[SBV116]

Very nice!!

 

[Ian]

The Ph1 only came in Odyssey blue; it is confusing though - Renault have way too many blues in the Clio range!

 

[RichF]

Nice motor, ph1's are growing on me

 

[sideways danny]

That's exactly the car i want

 

[T. 12 E E D.]

Lovely mate best colour ph1 imo

 

[koi]

nice rare colour, although it does seem to be appearing more and more now!

See I thought the same, but if you look at the RS heritage site there's 934 Titanium, 117 Pearl Black and 116 Odyssey, so there should be a few about. Plenty of Pearl Blacks in the club anyway! My theory is it looks a lot like a 'normal' colour so there's more chance that they were bought by more sensible people and kept for longer lol.

 

[Brett]

Love it. There's one round my way but it looks a bit battered.

 

[Dave..]

Looks in good condition for it's age, very few around I imagine that are kept that well.




It's strange seeing one without orange bits all over it though...

 

[TimR26]

Nice colour haven't seen many of those before.

 

[rosssei]

so your the bandit who stole it off PH - you got in good and quick! wanted this car myself! health to drive mate!

 

[Greeny.]

Thats really nice, good find

 

[Gally]

It's nice I just see ph2's as a big step forward in looks and interior. All imo of course.

 

[franx]

looks like you drove it out of the showroom.. pretty low mileage aswell , good decision

Welcome back to the Going+Throwing :approve:

[.GAZ.]

Buy mines + Stick an engine in it = Happy days!

 

[SammyT]

[st3ve]

That looks a minter and less than 50k on an X reg, good find.

 

[Moz168]

Very nice, hope when I get one it will look as mint at that.

 

[Alex_X93]
