The Clio has gained its place in my heart... and in the garage! The Porsche might change (and it changed, from a 997 Turbo mk1) but I don't see what I could replace the Clio with. I'd like to buy a Leon Cupra sub8 but I don't want to say goodbye to the Clio... It's so practical for the city and...

Bought mine new on ebay, but it took something like 3 weeks to arrive (to Portugal though, UK might be faster).

Really becoming an enthusiast of NA engines in a growing turbo era. Which one should I take today to make some noise in the city? :smilingimp::smilingimp:

Here in my country they are actually holding quite well. The car costed me 19.000€ in 2013 (RP 29.950€ in 2012, poor first owner!) and is still worth around 16.500€

I have a 2012 mk3 Gordini and when the Clio 200T came out I went to test it both on the road and track. My expectations were quite low after reading so many bad reviews on the gearbox, but I actually enjoyed the car. It was a nice all rounder, the gearbox was fine in the city (I live in the city...

Done. Good luck :relaxed:

My 200 Gordini doesn't have it :pensive:

I have tried many pressures when cold, from 1.8 to 2.3, and found the car to behave better when using 2.1 cold. Specially in Algarve, because it's a track where tyres work better with higher pressures.

The car behaves nicely, though. Onboard with Cup 2s. The car in front was using Federal semislicks and had a Quaife LSD, as well as a Milltek exhaust, air filter, remap, strut bars, 330 mm brakes.... Mine only had H&R lowering springs, an Akrapovic and DS2500 pads.

I have also used the Cup 2's. At first I had 225/45, but they were rubbing on the bodywork (I have lowering springs) and now I have 215/45. They are good tyres overall, which was what I was looking for, since I also use the Clio on the road. The grip is awesome but I was a bit disappointed with...

Yes, I forgot to say! The car is on 20mm spacers. I hate the look of it without them! I prefer the wheels more at the surface, though it becomes much easier to scratch them when parking. I just removed the spacers for track use since my Cup 2's were 225 and they rubbed on the bodywork... I have...

Went for a drive with some friends and one of them took some cool pictures of my car. Here they are :relaxed: It was a tough decision to choose the best looking car or the best sounding one between the Akra'd Clio, the Abarth 595 Competizione 180 with Record Monza and the Mini JCW with JCW...

Hello everyone! I decided to create this progress thread instead of having everything spread across the forum. I have a 2012 Clio RS 200 Gordini, number 950. It is both my daily driver and my track day car (though I have other cars, but I just love the little Clio!) So far, these are the mods...

Come live to Portugal :tearsofjoy::tearsofjoy: You won't be ripped off here. I bought my Clio 200 when I was 18 (it was my first car) and insurance against all risks was 800€. I am 21 now and paying 300€ for legal insurance, theft and glass (because I break a lot of them on trackdays lol). I...

Welcome! Your car looks super nice :grinning::grinning:

Bem vindo ahah Welcome! Car looks tremendously nice! Enjoy it

2012, 23k miles, lots of track days and still running the original gearbox :blush:

The Clio in front is not a Cup, but has Cup shocks with H&R springs. It also has a Milltek exhaust, Quaife LSD, 330 front brakes, strut bars and a remap... Mine is a 200 Cup only with H&R springs and Akrapovic exhaust, everything else standard

Thanks! I was using an iPhone 7 on the front and a GoPro Hero4 on the rear. We have a lot of strong civics here on track days, with a lot of preparation so they are fast :tonguewink:

It is indeed an awesome track, always going up and down like a roller coaster and with lots of blind corners! I have done three track days there and every time I left with a huge smile on my face. Spectator wise, it is not so good as you only see one or two corners from each point... It's a...
