I'm still alive and well and missing the V6, often wonder why the hell I ever sold her as I know I'll never find another one in the same condition, but life moves on and I've moved "Up North" to be back close to my family.

Here's my latest ride...... which keeps me entertained, and the girlfriends John Cooper Works Mini which is a great little rocket.





The C63 AMG has just 11,000 miles from new and is great fun, I spent months searching for one of the last of the model, it's actually a 2014 car, but as I live in Hull, I snapped up the registration "HU11 AMG"...... LOL.

This was the day I collected it from the dealership......

Interesting change from a V6 clio....I too have a C63, bought new and almost right away had the ECU uprated by Kleemans to 542 bhp, nice and quick now !!!

Hey Jim, good to hear from you........if you remember your Titanium [v6plaque]133[/v6plaque] was the first Vee I test drove back in July 2011. I agree you should have kept it - it was immaculate, and had only 16K miles! If I remember correctly you also had a BMW M5 at the time....

Glad you are still in the 'car scene' and enjoying your motors.

Once a petrol head, always a petrol head.

Yes I did have an M5, I enjoy my big engine salon cars, but having something as collectable as a V6 Clio certainly takes some beating.

I do check on here every now and again, not sure who has my old V6 ...... And yes, it was [v6plaque]133[/v6plaque].

Good to hear from you. Keep in touch.

Hahah...... I did exactly the same, after purchasing the C63 from Mercedes Central in Birmingham, three days later it was at MSL Performance having a Eurocharged Remap (528bhp), secondary decat and a Quaife Limited Slip Diff fitted.

Now...... apart from a supercharger it's perfect

is that ecotile on the floor of the garage?

 

[Jim Green]

No.... It was from Halfords, a temporary measure until I get the floor coated, but as a temporary measure it's standing up surprisingly well.
