I have a turb!

I'm soooo pleased with it! Took the ex with me and he managed to get the guy to drop from £2,000 to £1,500! Scared the crap out of me on the way home in it too! There's not much i need to do on it!

Gonna get black lights.... prob leave the wheels for a bit and gonna get myself a cossie bumper! I cant wait!

Thinking i mite have to insure it now tho! Cant have it sitting outside for long!!!

Here are some pics which the guy took... i took a couple but have blown up my pc... so will ask my mate to bluetooth them to their pc!

Very nice, what kinda bumper you planning putting on?

Would get a set of standard rear lenses on there, lexus lights are for lexus's :roll: 8)

Clio b
08-05-2006, 00:28
jus want the cossie one on there....

i got a set of standard alloys with it too... gave em to the ex tho cause he wanted some and i dont like em! since he saved me £500!

08-05-2006, 00:34
Nice one. I like them lots. Keep it standard looking and drop a 2.1 zvh in there.

A set of 16" mondeo si rims (escort gti style) would look mint and a set of smoked and red rear lights are all it needs.

Clio b
08-05-2006, 00:36
the ex has got a 2.1zvh to go in his... mine's too quick for me as it is!

i'm startin to quite like the wheels on it too.... mite keep them for a while!

08-05-2006, 00:37

Clio b
08-05-2006, 00:39

Looks nice. Be careful where you're pointing when you wake up the turbo rudely. Goodbye twisties, hello mad crazy speeds. :)

Craig
08-05-2006, 09:12
nice bud! i like them, but they are money pits, and not too good on the old handling!

Clio b
08-05-2006, 09:15
well i didnt have the guts to drive it home yesterday so the ex did.... and he went flying round this roundabout... i thought he would spin it but it managed to stick rather well.... i'll jus need some practice! :lol:

I can't believe you guys are scared to drive your own cars :o

I flew to Kent to pick my coupe up, and couldn't wait to kick the 270bhp shit out of it :lol:

The ford looks nice and shiny, hope you like driving it (when you get chance) and that it doesn't end up costing you loads :)

09-05-2006, 09:17
There isnt much not standard on it... lights, wheels and mirrors.....

Lunner
09-05-2006, 10:50
for greenlight don't you have to be 21 and have a year NCB??

Don't bother telling them about chips and cams, don't throw a paddy then :lol:

Just mention obvousl stuff, like lowering, 4 pots, exhaust, and IK if you have it, don't bother declairing a replacement filter imo

Clio b
09-05-2006, 10:54
I've told them about the exhaust, lights and alloys.... the dump valve has been taken off cause it was faulty... and i'm not sure if i'm gonna leave the chip in... will see once i've driven it! definately gotta get another dump valve tho! :D

This is what one of the boys from clio-stylers thinks....

"even ones with a 190 chip are dog slow. ive raced a frst and was leaving it at a steady pace in my 172, and my clio valver out accelerates the 172"

Gav
09-05-2006, 19:58

lol must admit have raced quite a few standard ones and thrashed em, but coz their turbo their highly tunable!!

25-05-2006, 09:27
Well i think my rolling road printout shows it aint dog slow!

Anyway i love it so what else matters!! :D

Mine was silly power but it needed an Escort LSD it used to spin the wheels thru 3rd gear lol. It was about the same pace as the Clio when the Clio was stripped, but I never got a chance to explore the handling.
