very nice upgrade though!
 
  clio 197 r27

yes the fiesta including the car was a total of 34k.. owned for year and half and loved every minute ended up with

8 mag features
best non vag
euro winner
top 20 at mod gods
was on 5th gear

i built it to do all the above and enjoyed it , now i wanted somthing quiker and somthing i can drive down a road and think are there any speed humps about lol...

i was paying 2.4k a year on indurance for the fiesta now i paying 1200 for the clio sooo massive saving there, sold many fiesta parts and made 5-6k back and still got some bits also......... soo i think i did a good thing tbh.....
my money end of the day any who yes i have alist of bits for the clio but with contacts i made owning the fiesta and mate working with renault race team think i will be getting some parts cheap if not free. so cant complain........
already had a white gloss cage made up for me but unsure weather i want it ....
yes it was in fast car at leeds in the skatepark. good shoot tbh..

with xmas coming up im hoping for most parts from family and gf. quite enjoying how it is atm lol.

people spend just as much on engines, its just how it goes...

fair play and good luck with the clio, i think i remember your fez few from ff too.
 
MEH it's only money can't take it with you so why not spend it! I loved the Fester. Hope you make the R27 as good!
 
  Elise 111R
yes indeed. 34k. and your point is ??????
take into account 10k was audio .........

I think his point was what did a £1200 saving in a year and half of spending at 35k really benefit you?

Did you split the gear? You must of lost more than it was worth.

BTW i think both cars are really nice and the Fez looks amazing but i'm one of those people who thinks you should of got a Z4M.... and before you go insurance.... 23k for the a good example and even if you spent 6k on insurance you'd still be better off.

Although as you say that wouldn't of given you the mag covers etc which are more important to some than others.

Good luck with your new car
