Hello guys, I'm Mike from Manchester and at the weekend bought an 09 plate 197 Lux edition in Albi Blue
So far i've given the car a good clean and prep for winter. Washed, clayed, polished and waxed, sealed the wheels, shined the tyres etc.
I also changed all the indicator bulbs to silver ones, fitted white LED sidelights and numberplate lights and also fitted some alloy ebay exhaust tips which are cheap but actually look really great I think. I saw them mentioned on here and thought they looked well worth the £20.
Not the best pics but sure i'll get some better ones when I take it out for a drive
So far i'm loving the car, still drives like its new, no rattles etc. The interiors a nice place to be with the Lux pack, leather, climate control, nicer sound system etc.
It drives great too, still getting used to the power and not had a chance to drive it on a completely dry road yet, but the grip I gives even in the wet at close to freezing temperatures has amazed me so far!
Plans for the car are only small at the mo, want to remove the 'clio' badge from the back, I may plasti dip the diffuser and from grill as they are a bit faded and i'm not too keen on the silver mirrors, so may look at spraying them black or maybe getting some covers for them. Also the wheels have a bit of lacquer peeling and minor curbing, so may get them powder coated dark grey cup style.
