But it's no ordinary clio, sure to some/most people here wont like it but they do fech quite a bit for there age. Looks nice but im not a fan of Phase 1's Jaykay
I bought mine when i was 18 i think, spent a year replacing a hell of a lot of parts, it was worth the wait for me. Get a skuttle kit on it for a great induction sound!
Cleaned it today after about 6 months

Haha yep not any normal clio
.Glad the wait is worth it. Same the interior is mint but its the exterior that needs work.
Im very tempted by the skuttle kit just need the money.
Here is my Zed, had it for a year now. 2000 W plate, 2.8 litre, facelift exterior but without the later 3.0, not many made in this configuration apparently? Optional extra 17s, sports seats, M suspension... not that it stopped the colossal body roll at Cadwell as you will see 
Enjoy.
I guess I got a little carried away with the pics
Big thanks to XSP Photography for the on track photos.

What is it then?
Just looks like a generic Clio to me and neither of you have said what it is. :/
Xez - You need a new rear numberplate, that one is warped.

Very nice pics of the Z3. I'd be a little concerned about the rollbars though.
Seem to be below both of your heads, and is it actually functional? Or just a style bar?

Thats the reflection, its deffinatly straight
Jaykays is a 1.8 16v and for a J reg car it has a lot of 'toys' expensive in there day

He's 18 though, doesnt need a large car. I guess toys is the wrong word. You should be on my side here!

Nothing but on here it always have to be a large saloon, preferably BMW. I'm just saying he's young, and wants a nippy car he can chuck around.

I did...kind of...I said it doesn't look anything special.
Seriously though, age and car size means nothing, as a lot of guys on here have proved.
1.8 16v ... ~140bhp in a tin can...not bad.

Well, here's my car - took me a while to find my ideal car:-
It's a Japanese import, Mitsubishi Evo 9GT, May 2005, 2L 4pot running 414bhp and 400ft-Lb @ 1.83bar with a few tweaks:-
Have a few plans for it next year, funds permitting.
Recent visit to Millbrook for a CAT Driver Training day (highly recommended!)
I was also proudly part of the official Guinness World Record for the largest parade of Mitsubishi Lancer Evolutions at Castle Combe in July 2008, along with 272 other Evo's. This was organised by the Mitsubishi Lancer Register (MLR) club/forum to raise money for charity:-
