Who here owns a Renaultsport?

I honestly think that you should stop spending for a bit. Enjoy the car for what it is for a while and after a few months do another upgrade perhaps.
 
£8k to run a Clio for a year, madness.

I've run a Xsara VTS over a similar time frame and mileage (12 months/14k) and its cost me about £3.5k... INCLUDING buying the car.

Quite a difference considering the similar age, type and performance of car!

How did you manage that seeing as 14k is well over £2000 in fuel alone....?

Insurance? Tax?

Bearing in mine that mine covers 2 years worth of insurance and tax in that £8k...

£400 insurance + 2x £130 odd tax. Just 12 months though!

Fair enough just the £8k figure shocked me! Almost makes pcp on a clio 200 seem viable!

Yeah, the £200 Clio 200 deal was great, but at the time I was doing 18k a year... the Clio 200 deal is limited to 5000 miles or something.
 
Tyre shine/gel is awesome!

I've been very good the last couple of months, aside from new front brake pads which were needed, I've not spent a penny :)

Although I am now considering changing my bullets back to standard, as the fact mine are slightly off colour does annoy me.

EDIT: Scrap that, I like them actually, just wish the blue was a perfect match :(

Talking about spending obscene amounts of money on a Clio, I think you win this thread :p you've spent the same, if not more than me, AND an entire engine rebuild ;p
 
Pfft! You're all noobs! Love the way I don't get any compliments on my car because everyone is thinking 'Yea, it looks alright, but not a patch on SS's' :p

No not at all, to be honest they're basically the same. Mine is a little lower and it has different coloured wheels, not much else is different :)
