Erm just drop it 30mm but still useable, propbably some cup 16" multispokes or 16" supperleggera's, possibly a viper or BMC CDA,
thats about it really

Its just so much nicer to drive than corsa, faster, smoother and my god does it handle well!

40k miles, loaded with extras

drove the astra and its far too big for me, plus the clio does 44 mpg on motorway runs, faster than the astra, 14.7 1/4 standard car!

yeh for the money its great!
for 7.5k the price of a good coupe then id say the clio is possibly beaten by the a3/golf

Im ever so happy with mine, it just pulls without spinning, i had a play with a 2ltr nova earlier, something i dont want to admit - i actually pulled a fair gap from him
