    How are clio's in the snow? I'm snowed in

    Why would we start a ****storm? It's interesting to hear what someone whose clearly used to 'extreme' weather driving thinks! The taxi driver in the French Alps in January was mental on these snowy mountain roads - very impressive!

    Time Lapse drive to work.

    That was addictive to watch...! The time lapse makes it look like you were flooring it through the snow lol

    Back at last

    Beautiful car mate, LY 200's are the sex. I went from a sprint to a cup which was an awkward and expensive job, but cup to sprint is easy cos the holes for the cup are covered by the sprint :)

    Why your clio?

    I first saw a 197 outside my school. It was a LY R27 with cup spoiler and it would drive past every day, looking pretty damn awsome... I was only about 14 at the time, but I decided it was my realistic dream car lol. Then in Aug 2011 while sitting in hospital after ****ing my knee on a...

    Its time to say goodbye.....

    My mate has one of those in black - great cars! He's very proud of the speakers, likes to blast them full volume to show 'how there's no distortion' :D

    Top class 197 review!

    Completely agree, he actually does a frikking good job for someone who obviously doesn't drive. It is hilarious, but he may well have a future in this... he's clearly keen enough

    h&r springs on an 09 200

    I've heard people mention that earlier 200's like mine have a different (smaller?) top mount. If I'm gonna buy h&r's will I need to make sure they're the right ones, or will all h&r 200 springs be cool? Cheers

    My new 200 cup in Mercury Silver

    I wouldn't have known even if I'd checked, but I gave the car a good drive before I bought it, I was 350 miles from home and it was a very good price so I was happy, and there's no issues bar a full brake service (working at a garage it will only cost me £400 or so) so it's all good

    Speeding - drat

    I used to get stopped quite a bit in my Corsa D, but never in the Clio. Had to do the speed awareness course once, and the lack of knowledge the old people had was amazing! "what's the speed limit on a dual carriageway with a national speed limit sign" "60!!! :D" "NO"

    My new 200 cup in Mercury Silver

    Didn't check the engine bay, call me an idiot! I bought it from g'gow so once I was there I couldn't just say I don't want the car, so I commited the cardinal sin of crossing my fingers and hoping for no nasty suprises!

    My new 200 cup in Mercury Silver

    Got my new headlights fitted :D Fitted them last night at a mates, drove home and realised the levelling motor wasn't connected (ok, I didn't realise, I just got confused. Some helpful people on here realised) Re-did the job today at my work when my boss went... Working at a garage has it...
