Looks like a nice Clio without having to resort to those silly over stretched 'johnny' tyres.

Don't like that, at all.

IMO that is just jumping on the 'euro' bandwagon!
That fails on a few levels, mainly the wheels, which are of the wrong offset and do not suit the car in the slightest.

Remove the stickers and the crappy plates and I think it'd look quite good - in this pic it looks better I reckon: It's is very stereotypical of course.



Seems a bit over-price though.

I just don't like the DUB scene at all anymore. I used to see a nice golf lowered on some nice wheels and think "Thats nice and tidy" but now it seems that every euro hatchback you see is lowered on cheap ripoff wheels and slammed on to the floor.

And the people that slam their car to the ground and go "omgwtfbbq!11! It's so Euro now, proper dub!"
Don't get me started furious

I don't mind it as it's in rather quite nice condition. The main thing that I don't understand is the price. Surely 2500 would be the maximum for this? After all, it is still only a MK2, Phase 1 Clio with with a set of aftermarket alloys.

I know what I'd go for given the choice - http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/1520619.htm

Are you seriously saying that's subtle!??!
different alloys, bigger spoiler. smoked rear lights, and quad pipes....

IMO only the wheels are un-subtle... a little bling for my liking... other than that I think perfect balance :-)

I love this. Its just so nasty, a drift slag if there ever was one. The skyline engine in it is pretty cool too.

looks a pile of st to me...dents and dodgy panels don't really make it look good.. The best thing are the alloy wheels..

Blimey! 360 ponies aint half bad for a first car thumbup


How long have you had it for?
I have had it since November 2009.

I have already covered 4000 km in it.

Due to weather I have not had a proper blast in it yet. Roll on spring.

But even when driving it on bad surfaces I can make my wife cry from fear when accelerating.

Switzer P800 911 Turbo. All 800hp of it without shouting too loudly:

I like it. But realistically, all it is visually is a Black 997 Turbo with a set of alloys, tints and a nice looking GT2 esque spoiler. I bet "Switzer" want a shed load for those 3 parts alone!

Depends if you missed the word "Visually" I put in biggrin The engine could be stock or 800BHP it would still be a subtle looking Turbo tongue out
