Hi all out there. I take possession of my Clio A&D tomorrow (can't wait) and can anyone assist with the proper care of the paint for this car. Also any PROVEN performance mods would be helpful also. Please keep me posted of any club runs in / from Sydney and any track days also, thanks Scott.

G,day Scott. The A&D is the best spec'd 200 released here, good choice.

Plenty of worthwhile upgrades available if you know what your doing... exhaust, headers, tune, suspension, brake pads & lines, tyres, mounts, weight loss, etc.

Great car the 200/197 but far from perfect & like all cars there are always production compromises that can be improved upon. Go on http://www.clio197.net & you'll find much more useful/knowledgable Clio III info than on here.

For cleaning products at a reasonable price http://www.chemguys.com.au/

For upgrades

My personal view is to go the lighter route rather than additional power. I'm personally looking for a light weight pulley kit.

Did you pick up the one for sale in Zetland NSW? Do you mind me asking how much as I'm watching the market foe A&Ds

 

Thanks

Welcome! Great choice of car :)

 

For cleaning I use the Nanolex matte paint kit from Car Care Products and I find it easy to care for.

 

What number/colour is the car so we can add it to the register?

Only hassle I had with the paint on mine was 'fallout' or miscellaneous sticky black stuff. Having recently discovered Gyeon Iron and understanding it's awesomeness I'd keep it in the back of your mind in case you get little spots of black in the matte paint that are tricky to remove.

Hi Guys,

Thank you all for the informative replies re cleaning products and upgrades. Superfly - yes I did pick up the one from Zetland - I was also watching it for a while, I always find that people who are advertising before Christmas and still have it sitting there for a while get keen to do a deal - I picked it up for $24K :D
