  1. clio r27 to Ibiza FR / Cupra

    Hi guys, just joined the forum today. I currently drive a R27 Clio but have recently been thinking of changing / trying something new. I have driven Renault Sport Clios for a good while now, having a 182 before the 197. I have been thinking of changing the Clio to the new Ibiza FR or...

    Great brakes on Clio compared to Cupra!

    On monday I had a prang on the way to work, hit up the bum on the roundabout so the car's in for repair and I have a gutless Clio courtesy car for a while till its fixed :( The difference in power compared to the Cupra is hilarious, but at least the rides much smoother to work for a while...
  3. Bocanegra vs Cooper S vs Clio 200

    Nice review. Boc gets marked down of the handling (yet again). I do hope some nice coilovers will sort this problem. From the looks of the review it does come in last place. One part of the review I dont understand is where they admit the Boc its faster in a strait line than the clio and the...
  4. Has anyone changed from a Clio 197 to a Mk2 Leon Cupra?

    I currently have a limited edition RS Clio R27, which has got to be one of the best handling cars I have ever been in, but it's a 197PS N/A car, and the power comes in at 5000RPM, so I have a niggle/desire to change it for something with a Turbo. I've always liked Leon's, and my mate has...
  5. Seat Ibiza Cupra TDI or Renault Clio 182?

    Which would be best for mainly town driving? Pros of the cupra? I know the huge torque and economy would be good but decent ones cost quite a bit. And I'm sure the cupra couldn't hold a candle to the clio's handling/fun factor.
  6. Going from Clio 182 to Ibiza Cupra

    Hi all, I'm looking to move from my RenaultSport Clio 182 04 to a Beezer Cupra 1.8T. I do quite a few miles a month and I've just downgraded from a 57 Civic Type R, the 182 is an awesome little car but really is tiring on my long journeys. I do like to drive with some verve, I know asking if the...

    m0rk's 2003 Renault Sport Clio Cup 172 WN52 PCU

    Well after a job shift & having to drive into central Portsmouth every day I decided that the MX5 needs to be relegated to weekend summer duty. So I need a sensible commuting car for my 15 mile drive in to work. So being almost 30 insurance is no longer an issue, and because I like a...

    Will clio wheels fit???

    Seen a nice set of clio sport wheels that I could get cheap and I know they're pcd is 100 (same as Ibiza's) and the centre bore (i'm guessing, according to alloyguide.com) is 60.1. So with just some spigots to change centre bore to 57.1, would these fit? Cheers, Gordz.

  11. Cupra TDI vs Clio 182

    Had a go tonight with one. First was from about 70ish and he cudnt keep up. Then we tried from about 80 (he started off behind me) and he stuck to me like glue I could go far as to say he may have had to back off. I was in 5th at 80 so maybe shud have gone for 4th. Or is it just because the...

    Fun with the Clio sport. Or not.

    So yeah, I thought today was the day when i'd master the double-declutch technique - And since it was raining, it'd be one of those situations where if I didn't master it - i'd probably die. Incentive! :) All was going well, I was giving a nice little tap of the accelerator in neutral before...

    Ibiza + Clio Photo shoot

    Me and a friend who owns a 172 decided to take advantage of the weather and the fact that both cars had been cleaned to take some photos of them together, these are also the first pictures of the car I've taken since I have had it. Think they have turned out ok. [B)] Please feel free to...
  14. 03 Cupra R upgrade from MKII Clio 172

    Just upgraded my car from a mark II Clio 172 to an 03 Leon Cupra R 210 and wondering what to expect. I havent picked it up as yet - its ready for collection tomorrow night (Monday). My Clio was quick but pretty raw, not alot of comfort etc. I had a K-TEC Racing exhaust system and tbh drove...
