My 03 Clio 1.2 16v expression

Hmmmmmmm Beat that!.






Seems every person on here has a mega perfomance car, well not me.

I drive my mother car (sometimes I can pinch my dads T5, when he need me to pick him up from the pub), but for handling, the wee Clio is just so much fun.

I used to have a 1.2.16V Dynamique called Lucy. Absolutely shite car - loads of rattles and creaks. I think she was made on a Friday after the pub at lunchtime, but she handled very well.

The way that the thing judders in gear, and the fact that I can pull the cabin to peices worries me. Also has a bad tendancy to stall but what can you do!..its not mine .


What is it with girls naming cars?.


I mean I talk to my car (don't laugh), but as far as naming the it, nah thats just plain odd.

it's funny, 'cause that's a Renaultsport Clio

I think that isn't your car, it's on a garage forecourt too. Why lie though?

Well no shit sherlock.......


For one, im not going to fart my time away taking pictures of a car that is only at my house after dusk (The main user of the car is away at work during the day, whilst I catch the train to university)....Its dark around 5pm on a good day up here (Scotland)


Plus my neighbours will be mildly amused to see me trying to take a picture in the dark, with only the flash for light..so half-inching a pic from google is no crime...if it is then arrest me now!!.

Responding to prev-last reply of course its a 172.....However barring the Alloys and trim, it does currently closely resemble the clio that my mother own, and that I subsequently drive .

Finally whats the point of posting your car on the internet?, anyone could steal details from those pictures....Regie Numbers etc....Fraud only happens to those who allow it to happen to them!!

That's like me posting a pic up of a ferrari though, when I don't own one.

Each to their own.

PS, better hide your reg plate when out and about if your'e THAT paranoid, as it's clearly on view and your details could well be stolen

Is it really?, do you own anything that resembles a Ferrari?.

Where as I own a Blue Renault Clio, ok it isn't a 172, yet at least on the outside it resembles my car to an extent.......So how does a fezza compare to your car?

what's the point in even making a thread then?

For gods sake don't drive it, dont take it out of the garage lie low and hide.

They are watching you and they might see your numberplate, or someone elses !!

Yes, I do, thanks. Made in the same factory as quite a few too. However I wouldn't post up a picture of a ferrari, as that's not what I own. it's not rocket science really

Would consider posting something similar, to make a compromise as such?.


Much easier than taking a picture, uploading it onto your computer, then uploading it again onto the tinternet wouldn't you say?

My point about security also extends out to what you may post on this website..

.." Oh I was doing 100mph the other day on a national speed limit road "....

For any onlooker (of an Authoritive nature), it would be simple to enter the cars details into a database, and forward details to your area.

Now I know there is no proof of you performing such acts, and you may well just be telling porkie pies anyway. However it may just bring you some unwanted attention...which of course nobody wants.

Fair enough :smile:
