Thanks for looking
 
Some great pics there Nick I've roughly done the same. Went from my 197 Cup to a 225 and drive my mates 250 Cup now and then.

Question for you...do you ever miss the Clio ?
 
Thanks mates, I did miss the Clio quite alot when i had the R26. Now i've got a 250 i don't miss the Clio so much :lol::thumbup1:. I do sometimes miss the way the Clio sounded.
 
Haven't stopped looking at them recently. The leather standard seats are gorgeous in them, as are the leather recalls. Look a little more grown up to the clio. Get an exhaust on it. Sound lovely then
 
Marshall i promise you, It does'nt need an after market exhaust. It sounds the nuts at full chat propper R26.R sound, Then if you have it in extreme mode it pops and bangs all day long :smile:
 
Has it got a cat back?

Never had the trophy pop/bang regardless of monitor setting. Must be my driving style.
 
Nope standard exhaust, When your next out for a drive in extreme/sport mode blip the throttle when going down through the gears, Drop the rear seats for extra effect lol. Then when your stationary leave it in extreme/sport mode rev to about 3K :wink:.
 
Will give it a go. I know cat backs pop all the time and if I'm honest I wouldn't want it but ill still have a ride out tomorrow and try it out.


Hoooooon
