Hi folks,

Nick is me name (yep another one from Dereham) I know some of you from Scoobycity.

Unfortunately my scoob is for sale, as I need some money towards a new house I'm purchasing.

One question Big power what quantifies that? as once I've sold the scoob (if that's ever gonna happen) I was thinking of a little Clio 172 or 182.

Cheers

Nick

welcome to the club Nick 182 is the no brainer if it's gotta be between the 2.... any particular reason why the clio ? could get other cars for the money :grin:

Basically I need 3+k plus a car and mine will hopefully sell for around 9k.

My main reasons for choosing the Clio are MPG (I do Dereham to Norwich City centre and back every day), Insurance is half the scoob, 7 odd secs to 60 and gets a lot of votes from Evo mags and the like.

Can you think of any others?

Welcome to the site Nick

BigPower is as much a mindset as a bhp threshold. The Clios are both great cars that carry a far bigger performance punch than people expect.

Seat Cupra R's are a possibility too.

:( I heard about this from my work colleague, he's a chap on Nick's clan - can't believe people do that ! I've seen the new spoiler he's got fitted but not quite the same as the PD :cry:
