New 197 Owner

[Mr. Ski]

Hi,

I'm Adam from Newark, Notts, and at the weekend I picked up my 1st Clio 197, Ive had a 182 before, and the time was right to purchase this clean standard example,



Few plans for it, swap the headlights for the black ones with the projectors, Wheel refurb (probably leave the wheels silver) H&R/Eibach spring kit, maybe change the exhaust and a panel filter, and just enjoy it really,

So yeah, Hi.

Welcome. Looks lovely.

Like the fact that the words “standard example” were followed by a list of upgrades. You’ll fit in well here.

How do you find it next to your 182?

I’d go bronze or gold on the wheels!

Bronze is a good shout, id not even considered that to be honest, The 182 was about 6 years ago, and that wasn't 'Standard'



But I haven't shut up about it since ownership,

so far im loving the 197, Coming from a Mk2 Golf, lets just say, it feels very refined,

"Very refined"!!! Not something you hear very often around here!

182 looks a fun one mate but glad you're enjoying the 197.

As for the wheels, if it was me, I'd go gold. Think it always looks so cool on a black car.

@Jordanfaf on here has had his wheels done in gold and I think it's a winner. Some photos here
