Yellow mk1 172 from the other side of the pond

Hi All,
After years of driving a Saab 9-3 Turbo i sold it and bought myself a Clio RS.
It has been in mine possession for a whopping 1,5 weeks

Bought it as this.

Very standard state, but realy realy hated the wheels.
So i bought some heavily damaged 17" Wolfrace alloy's for a steal.:rasp:
During the coming weeks i fixed and repainted the alloy's and they ended up as new

Till today i fitted some new goodies :
Raceland Coilovers
Xenon slim ballast kit 6000k (ebay €27)
JVC KD-AVX22 Chameleon headunitS
Some new speaker units
Custom exhaust

It now looks like !

The coilover set is fenomenal rides extremely good in the corners but i have to say at full lock there are some drawback's (wich i expected with 17").
Going to take it a little bit higher so this doesn't happen anymore

I have to say the xenon kit is working far beyond my expectations, i mean what can you expect from a uber cheap ass xenon kit. It works and installs like a dream, 5min. more work than a simple lightbulb change).
When i placed a very expensive pilot kit in the saab it was an absolute nightmare with placing the ballasts and dash errors for weeks after it was placed.
The love for these cars is growing every day, i am absolutely not loyal to a brand when it come's to cars but i have a feeling this little rocket/kart is going to change all of that.

Callin' Bandit!?

Welcome Dutchie.
Looks like a dutch invasion...

Sunflower Yellow... looks good with them large wheels albeit a bit too large for my liking.

Can't faulter a Clio Renault Sport.
