What Mods to get with £800

[Djlowton]

Anyone got any ideas of what i should do with about £800 to my clio mk1 i have just bought, its completly standard apart from some 6x9s in the parcel shelf

 

[AhmedRSi]

what engine? how old are you?

 

[theduck]

Pics of your car? Guessing its a 1.2 so probably alloys and lowering.

 

[DrR]

How much was the car?

 

[Djlowton]

im 19 and its only a little 1.2 as i have just finished my ban fro drink driving, insurance is crazy

 

[Djlowton]

got it off a good mate for £150

 

[latza]

sell your car and buy a ph2 seriously they are so much better

 

[DrR]

lol i'd just leave it.

 

[Djlowton]

i did have a mk2 4 but i cant afford 1 with my insurance being so high

 

[Brett]

Not worth chucking £800 at a £150 car. I'd just leave it as it is, build up some no claims and some clean driving history.

 

[theduck]

Insurance is killer so you're looking to modify? Going to declare the modifications? If insurance is that bad I doubt it, and so you will be driving around illegally AGAIN.

 

[TimR26]

Have you checked your insurance will allow modifications? I'd save the cash and enjoy the car for what it is.

 

[Tony Hunter]

Save the £800 to go towards your insurance next year.

Brave man coming on here admitting DD.

 

[Djlowton]

i learnt the hard way

 

[S&K]

Dare I say driver training ? Seriously a car limits day or instruction at a track day is going to be worth more in the long run than a few bolt on goodies and hey you'll notice the extra power / handling even more when you do modify you're car

Some insurance companys dont mind mods after bans shows your looking after car ask ya self how long you want to keep ya clio if it for a long time then mod it like alloys lowered ect but if it only temp then put monet toward another car but just depends how much ya like ya car

 

[Slinkey]

out of curiosity how much are you paying insurance?

 

[gaz44]

Brakes.

 

[Magic Johnson]

More booze?

 

[iimushroomzii]

Get some decent valver brakes, Willy wheels, and some cheap lowering springs! Sorted.

 

[Aluco]

Spend it on something worthwhile.

I love how people on here have already decided what this guy should do with his life. If you've not got any advice about what he's asking then don't bother saying anything!
