I know this is a Vw forum but seeing as a few guys on here are buying clio's as track cars I thought I would share so you can avoid this disaster.

Why not report this advert on pistonhead.
There is a function on every advert to report to administrator.

As far as I'm aware it has been reported by numerous people and the chap has re-listed it again.

What's both cup packs ?

QD has inspired me to look at one of these.

Thought the cup pack was lowered and no abs?

Quote from: Clio Sport
The optional 182 Cup packs were; cup suspension pack, slightly lower stiffer springs (and anthracite wheels) and cup spoiler(s)

I think this translates to:

Cup Suspension Pack: Stiffer springs & Anthracite Wheels
Cup Spoiler Pack: Front Splitter & Rear Spoiler

The 182 Trophy had some trick suspension all round.

On a Clio 197/200 the Cup Pack translates to: red calipers and stiffer springs.

Yeah dave as deako says, cup packs were an option on 182 s from 2004, qd has the 172 cup from 2002/ 2003, which was the hardcore one, cup suspension, lighter seats and no abs, then the cup suspension became an option. 172 cup is the best out of the box :happy2:

I reported one on there the other day a supposed Edition 30 in Candy, but its on 05 plate with std GTI interior, blatantly not an Eddie, he also states "Limited Edition, there are only 1500 of these in the country" which is a load of crap, we all know there are 2300 and god knows how many GTI's (Which is what he is selling!).

That'll be a frickin minefield then.....if I find one I'll post a pic!!

Had a Clio Williams Mk1 for a fortnight, only just stopped smiling, safe to say the 172 cup the nearest thing?

Cheers Matt, got chatting with Dave the other day and it's the smiles per £ ratio that attracts.

Would love to get into a ed35 or another rocco but 9 month old twins are cuddly money pits

There's one of those trophys at my work place with a forged engine and a turbo, supposed to be 350bhp. Bet that's good around a track :driver:
Won't be as good as a megane though :sad1:
