vorn_182 Posted June 11, 2003 Share Posted June 11, 2003 just been looking around cliosport.net and I found some quite interesting things 1)A Clio can look really nice when suttle things are done2?A Clio can look really bad when they stick huge wheels on them or try to make a Grey car look cool.3)People who own Clio's think there car is worth twice as much as any normal person would(£2000 for a K reg 1.4?!)4)I spotted that practically every forum selling somthing gets highjacked by someone else selling the same thing for a pound less.5)Clio owners refer to 16valve Clio's as "Valver's", thats quite funny as I doubt anyone else would dream of calling there car one of those!(Or yeah, mines a "Zetec'er" yeah man!) Sorry, I'm just scouting around for idea's for a new car, I'm not convinced! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Posted June 11, 2003 Share Posted June 11, 2003 How about a mk5 Fiesta? Excellent motor's, and look really ncie with just a set of rim's and some lowering! Or better still, keep the escort! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vorn_182 Posted June 11, 2003 Author Share Posted June 11, 2003 I'm on a tight budget! If I had the cash, a Zetec S would be top of the list but its not. Theres something I dont like like about my Escort, I just cant put my finger on it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cabrio Zo Posted June 12, 2003 Share Posted June 12, 2003 And you can get a BB Tuning turbo conversion for 4k which will give you near standard cossie power! Not bad in a small car. Did you see the new V6 on Top Gear?! Still wouldn't swap my 'scort for a Clio Z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crumpy Posted June 12, 2003 Share Posted June 12, 2003 Well the "valvers" are quick motors and at a group 12 insurance not to bad to insure. its about 4k for throttle bodies, 6k for the low boost kit and about 8k for the high boost kit. But a high boost turbo kit in a 16v clio is gonna be fast. Shame its soo much to do though. I would however though have a new V6, very nice motors.

mr_b Posted June 12, 2003 Share Posted June 12, 2003 yer, im looking for a new car at the moment, i have seen a few cars on clio sport going for way too much money. best way to get a turbo clio is to get a r5 1.4 turbo lump and transplant that into the clio, there are a few places that do this conversion.
