Hi guys, just thought I would say hello as I have been hanging around the site for a few weeks and realised that's just rude without saying hi !
Anyway, just sold my abarth 500 and picked up a white ff200. Loved the 500 but it was just a bit small and even with the Koni set up a little skittish.
I have owned 2 performance renaultsports in my time but a few years ago now. I had a clio 16V and then a Williams which I wish I still had !
The gap has been filled with a variety of performance cars and I am currently on my second RS4 in a row. But with fuel prices and my job meaning some weeks I can do a load of miles, it's just no good for everyday use. So the wife has it during he week which gives me he opportunity to have something else to mod.
So I got a 10 plate white ff200 with cup chassis. It's done 15000 miles, recaros, auto lights, keyless etc. I had the opportunity of having a set of speed lines but I found one with the anthithite pack ( I know it's not popular ) as I wanted something a little different and so I decided to keep the cup wheels and spend the money on a few other things. I like the look of the cup wheels in black so this maybe an option down the line.
So I will start a new thread with pics later once my first few bits arrive. I have had the parrot astroid head unit fitted and I am really impressed and will give a more detailed review later.
On order at the moment :
Pioneer replacement front and rear speakers
H&R springs 30/40
20mm H&R spacers
I have read about people's thoughts on the spacers but I have run them on both my Audi and the abarth, tracked both and never found they changed the handling, so we will see with the Clio. I hope not as it needs them IMO.
Here's a couple of pictures of the old set up and I will add some more once progress starts on the new one.
Cheers guys.
