Nope no door cards but I was thinking about gettin some plastic panels made.. How much would you be looking for for your ones? Does the auto bonnet have the raised centre section?H

I know it's frickin huge! Needs a new back box and its prob not doing the engine any favours being that big!

Well, since selling the 200 nearly a year ago and trading her in for something a bit more economical, the itch came back for another french hot hatch! The previous owner gave it a full respray in arctic white, replaced the engine and clutch, fitted a Sparco roll cage, Cobreau...

In the twisties is where it counts tho :thumbup:

I miss a fair few things about the clio like the rawness of it and being able to ring its neck and it rewarding you for it! The D3 is a different beast tho and I can't fault it but you feel guilty when you have some fun in it for some reason! I'm gettin 45-48 mpg out of it which is good and...

Yeah I bought it off Ed! He's a good bloke actuall seems really honest and helpful! Was it just the air con that put you off?? To be honest that was the one thing I regret not specing when I bought the car and seems to put a lot of people off with 2nd hand 200's! I think if it hadn't of have...

I never had a problem with mine but when it was serviced at BTM last Month, Fred mentioned that he's seen a few clio's which leak from a bolt on top of the block which looking at your pick matches the one he pointed out... Could be another common Renault trait??

Cheers for the comments guys! If I had the money or the space the Clio without a doubt would have stayed for weekend blasts! The new owner is on here anyway so at least I can make sure she's being treated well! :-) I've looked into a remap but the D3 has the clutch from a 320d and as its...

Yeah it is mate, think there was only 500 or so made??

No it's a proper alpina. No 103. It's obviously base on a 320d but with the injectors and intercooler and also a bigger turbo. So it has around 35bhp more than a standard 320... The newer bi turbo ones are mental tho but had no chance of affording one! Also with a £300 remap that will raise...

Well im sad to say the clio went a week ago and im missing her already! but due to the amount of miles a do with work i had to get something more economical which meant a diesel! Having to get rid of the 200 was depressing enough let alone swapping it for a diesel so i went with this...

1 x black & 1 x albi blue both parked at Eastgate shopping centre car park in basildon today..

If I were you I would install the HID kit at the same time as you fit the projectors so you don't have to take the bumper off twice.. I was tempted to install a HID kit but decided to get some Phillips diamond vision bulbs for main and dipped beam with some LED sidelights. Was cheaper an they...

Yes if you haven't fitted the levelling motor to your projectors and the projector housing inside the headlamp unit seems loose and moves around its normal as the motor and arm haven't been fitted to keep the inner part fixed.. I also thought mine were broken when I got them second hand for...

Cheers for the comments guys! Curley, can't make the meet in march or the Wales run so I'll have to see what meets come up in after...
