i met up with my mate yesterday after he'd finally got his mk1 clio valver road worthy, he let me have a go.... and my god! it went! and it handled so well on the corners.. just gripped

any way... pics! :-D

and i took my seats out etc to try and keep up

Both awesome cars! Is that a clio rsi 1.8? I went in my mates one a few weeks back and it was stupidly fast , so rapid , proper pocket rocket. I have to say it wasnt as race and kool looking as that one :p

How did u do trying to keep up with it ?

Your car is mint also. Really simple but so smart also , I'm very jeleous! How much is it lowered by and what size wheels? It looks like the perfect stance i want. I'm struggling to find the perfect stance and this looks pretty much bang on! o and does it rub ?

Thanks

its a 1.8 16v mate.... rapido! he left me for dead obviously

my car has no stance :p its too high and i cant go lower because of the tyres.... the wheels are 15s with a 195/50 tyre... balloons and it scrubs because of that, but i should have some 165/50s by end of the month. I'm not sure how low it is... its on coilovers and i just lowered them until it didnt scrub as much LOL

So its not a real williams then?

I'm glad it's not a proper Williams, would be a shame to see one damaged like that..

The Clio 16v is a proper weapon in the right hands, just like most French hot hatches...

the car was messed up on one side when he bought it, the plan was to just use the engine and put it on his old mk1, but he decided to tidy it up and he's done a banging job imo, he's just waiting on paint now

Ooft I love those, shame a lot have just been abused these days though.

Awesome

You haven't got anymore pics have you? :-D

I spotted this yesterday i recon, or is it the one thats been driven round newark for a while now?

I wasnt getting at anything bad, i was just confused when you said it was a 1.8 not a 2.0.

Still a pokey thing and the wing does look good.

clio looks good, love the look of them
