Clios great but its limited in where you can take it in regard to mods. I'm finding everything I want to do cost stupid money cause its not been done before or in limited numbers. i.e ITB. You must be only person running them on a 197, like Mikes the only SC. The cars become developmental cars for their respectful tuners.....Your cars certainly pushed the envelope but at the cost (not only money) but also reliability. Its hard to get the balance with these cars once the mods get intrusive. Your certainly a leader not a follower.
The clios my hobby at the mo but I'm realizing that unlike the 1*2, people realize that you soon exhaust what you can do with them and move onto another hobby. There are sooo many 1*2 with turbo's, Sc, ITB.
I always use Woody's experience as a barometer for moddin' 197. My last car I hated it because of the mods when conversely I was the one who modded it in the first place!!!! lol. When I parted it out, and put it back to standard, it drove nicer in its purist sense. I forgot how good it was to start with. I think the clios like that.
You have some tasty mods and I'm sure you'll get enough money from them to supplement your next 'hobby'. First dibs on your suspension and gearbox please!!!!! lol
