The Clio's in a different league tbh dude. Saxo may have been more of a head turner but this is definitely a better car. It's quiet, it's comfortable, more power, don't feel a chav lol
Thanks for the compliment's folks

Re exhaust, I run a super stealth on mine, not as boomy as the stainless stealth, and was about 1/3 of the price of a new exhaust compaired to Renault uk.

Lol, i do miss the Saxo. Ideally i'd have kept it and got the Clio. But can't afford 2 car's and a bike sadly  lol. And no, defo not stripping the Clio.

Ah, i shall look into that also then. Tbh, i'm not sure if the current exhaust is a Magnex or a Miltek but it's lovely and quiet. You can tell there's an exhaust there but it's really subtle. Shame it's not so pretty really.
Makes a massive difference from how loud the Saxo was

I'm considering one but it's not at the top of my list right now. I've booked the car in for Cambelt and De-Phaser pulley now. 3rd November. Will get it an oil change at same time.
Would normally do oil change's myself but the car has FSH and seem's a shame to spoil that so i'll just get everything done at my dad's garage with a receipt.

Cheers dude. Yea, the Saxo was awesome in my eye's. Loved every second of owning it.
Got lot's of compliment's, looked exactly how i wanted it to, was fun, awesome colour. But like i've said, if you don't move on you never experience anything else.
In all fairness the 172 is 10x the car. More comfortable, less chavvy, more toy's, quicker. Just generally better I love it haha.

K-tech stealth is crap. Been proven to loose power over the stock system. Just bought myself a custom prospeed Exhaust and she's mint. Just ask Andy. Oh and where did u get the led's mate? Desperatly after a set myself.

Really like the new 172! Im either going to get the 172 cup next or 182, need to wait till I can insure it though  Itsa very nice upgrade from the vtr, do you notice alot more performance? Ive been in a 182 and that was awsome
