DoomedMan Posted 20, June 2007 Report Share Posted 20, June 2007 Thought I'd pop I line, say hi to you all. Bought a Clio Sport 03 in silver last week and was told to come here for a chat. As far as I know I own the only clio in Whyalla, a town owned by a large brigade of v8 utes and SS commodores, if you don't drive a ford or holden here you go largely unrecognised, which is more my style. Look forward to chatting with you all and sorting out my yet unmolested ride. DM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanSA Posted 21, June 2007 Report Share Posted 21, June 2007 Welcome mate, lots of us in Adelaide if you ever come down. You must be a distictive sight up there i imagine, bet the cops have no idea what it is either.. Any nice roads around the town? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoomedMan Posted 21, June 2007 Author Report Share Posted 21, June 2007 Drive to Adelaide is about 350kms, all straight roads. Only road in Whyalla with anything resembling a corner is the short drive up the hummick hill lookout (about 3 corners all up). Next closest is the Horricks Pass, about 170 kms away but definitely worth the trip, will get out there soon. Will get some pics up soon, even managed to get all my music gear in back.

murcod Posted 21, June 2007 Report Share Posted 21, June 2007 Welcome, pity you don't have many corners to appreciate the handling. You can still enjoy the "big car feel" at the open limit. As far as I know I own the only clio in Whyalla, a town owned by a large brigade of v8 utes and SS commodores, if you don't drive a ford or holden here you go largely unrecognised, which is more my style. Sounds like Elizabeth and Salisbury..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
