I’ve had my Clio 200 since new in 2010, at first I was really happy with the performance but then as the weeks went by I soon realised it need more.
This is how she was when I picked her up…
I started with the usual mods, Milltek exhaust, lowering springs, ITG filter and a remap. As I am also the owner of a carbon fibre and performance accessories company I thought it would be rude not to put some carbon on it..
Once this little lot was on, the car was quite frankly epic. The Nos made such a difference as did the Sprintbooster, unfortunately Nos fill ups are expensive and I have a habit of using too much so in the end the poor girl died, she coughed, she spat a valve and one of her pistons crumbled…
Next up was the engine build… complete with Forge Silicone hoses and titanium exhaust wrap… and of course the development of a massive 63mm hard pipe kit.
I loved the white on white look but the RC6 pads really eat into them. I had no option but to refurb them so opted for black. The alloys were only 6 months old too.
Funny you should say that i’ve just fitted some white wheels to my 21 and the last chap didn’t clean them too well, i’m going to have a mission getting them anywhere near white again!
Just ensure you treat them with a good wheel sealant. I put on some composite mould release on mine now and it does the trick but I must’ve put £50’s worth on them
ive always ran carbon lorraines on my other clio’s, got ds2500’s on the current one and i think i may need to change soon. Seem to go off quite quickly with some spirited driving?
