I can understand, well at least you have been there and done it now. You could "make" yourself a t shirt lol 
172 will be great fun Im sure, you will miss the Saxo naturally, but the Clio is step up.
Im such a n00b cause you mention the bike under your avatar, awesome. Not a huge bike fan myself but my uncle talks none stop about them.
Main question I should be asking is what are you going for next then? Not a 1000CC yet I assume?

I'm thinking of either a Kawasaki Z750 or an Aprilia Tuono (which is a 1000cc V Twin  )
Preferably the Tuono, but i'm unsure yet. The Kwak would be a lot more reliable most probably.
Quick picture of my monster:
Yea, the Clio should be fun for me i reckon. Plans this time are: Coilovers, Poly Bushes, small Carbon bits, Silicone Hosing, Standard Interior, Stealth Stainless Exhaust and just really really clean. Kinda OEM+

The 1000c Tuono is going to be calling you like a devil sitting on your shoulder
The Ducati looks very tasty matey! I love bikes, but just dont think I have the balls to own one.
Thats pretty much all you need to do to the Clio, its a great looking car in standard from.

 Don't tell me that.
A lad called Jordash or something like that. I knew he wouldn't keep it as clean as i did

Just going to check my ebay records pal, will edit this post in a second :Y: I've replied to that thread
EDIT: Right, it's a 70mm x 60mm reducer coming off the throttle body with a 70mm joiner between that and the elbow. Elbow is 70mm to fit the Simota. Then the cold air feed had a 70mm elbow. Then to reduce the elbow iirc i used a 67mm x 54mm end feed copper reducer (plumbing fitting haha) and then a straight piece of 55mm silicone to connect to the original piece on the slam panel.
The copper fitting is stuff i sell at work plus copper will stand high temperature's easy which is why i used that. You have to chop the elbow's about a bit iirc to get it all to fit right but it's pretty straight forward.
