I wanted one a few years back, i think they have aged too much now. I mean everytime youd see a 172 you would get owned and they are everywhere now.

Ask Lee mitchell about VTS and Clio16V's I was sitting about a meter off he's rear bumper at 115mph he pulled over and I left him for dust was 3 up as well.
The clutch arn't too bad in the 16V, I've not had any major problems with my valver aopart from the ability to blow up gear boxes, currently putting my 3rd in 
That'll teach me, word of warning don't wheelspin in first whicst on full lock round a roundabout

Not reading no further, I'm sorry but this just is not true.
Clio 16v will beat a saxo std for std in a straight line, fair enough saxo vts's and 106 gti's get 20 ish bhp from ind kit and exhaust (apparantley :lol but the clio will be faster std for standard up to and past 60 imo.

the new clios have entirely plastic front wings - and thats on the 172 which wipes its arse on clios 16v's and saxo vts, so i dont see what plastic arches has to do with speed at all

williams have got a large insurance cost jump considering the marginal performance jump - i mean yeah they have more power but they weigh more and stuff - just cam up a 16v and stuff - they are cheap and fun.

nope all the front wings on 16v are plastic.
not that it matters.
oh and they do have proper wide archs, saxo west coasts have those psg2 style ones, its not exactly a special quality the vts has.
plus citroens are wank.
