Nice pics, I drove a rented Fiesta TDci in France last june, got it to 185 km/h coming back to Paris from a day in Bretagne on the Autoroute, I loved the little car and i'd definetely get one as a daily driver
the only thing those cars need is an intercooler, that'll give them a bit more punch!

Nice car ther, Thamar. I always liked the looks of the Clio II, certainly after the facelift. The 1.5 dCi 80 is idd a very nice engine. You chose the right colour, Rouge de fue, isn't it?

Driving your parent's car is no shame..
If I should buy my own, it would have to be an old opel or peugeot from the beginning of the nineties, with a starting price at £ 2000..
But my parent's haven't got a car which I can drive, so I guess I have to buy an old one!

I'm in almost the exact same situation. I also drive my mum's car, of which I chose the colour, edition. And I putted in my own speakers and radio
I have to do the washing and maintance (checking oil, tire pressure and driving it to the dealership for service) The car is mostly driven by me, so it's kind of my car...

Nice car, thamar. I would have been very happy if my mother had a new car when I was studying (1991-1997) - we had a 1981 beige 1.3 Corolla estate, it was really classy!!!

A few days ago i rented a clio like yours but with 4 doors and the engine was the one with 65bhp and with A/C.
Flat was about 180km/h, downhill was 190 at 4500rpm!! Doesn't go more lol
i liked the car =)

Hey Thamar, very beautiful car dude....as i liked it this much, i decided to make something on it, nothing professional, just 4 fun. If u guys see any mistakes please tell me as i would make it better next time as i am not a professional photoshoper . Guess you would like
I didn´t make too much modifications as my intention was not to make it a tunning car, but a sport one, as a Sport production Clio.
If u didn´t like something, tell me and i can change it. I´ve made another mod on another photo u posted but i don´t have it here at home, so i will post it as fast as possible later.
The photo in stock, that u had posted
And the Sport Limited production, brand new one Renault Clio Sport
As i like to always make improvements on my jobs, i can post it again later with some plus modifications.
