Hey there! My name is Ioannis (the english name for that is John :D ). I'm a Clio GT owner and the main reason that I've sign up in your forum is to get inspired from your mods under the hood as we have the same engine and i want to find solutions in order to upgrade my engine. GT and twingo RS is a very rare car, here in Greece, because it was very expensive. With the same money everybody prefer to buy an Ibiza FR or a 207 Rallye or a turbo engine car. My choice for Clio was the reliability that gives you the atmo engine, and my love for high reving in mount roads. I didn't get a Twingo RS because i need the spaces of Clio and i didn't get a 203 because of the high taxes that 2.0 engines have here in Greece (about 600 euros per year the tax to the state and 500 euros for insurance) plus the increased consumption. My english level is not so good so I ask you sorry for that :roll: I'm gonna show you my car in the right topic. I would be glad to advise me :D I hope I'll enjoy my stay here!
 
From Attica area. Marathon. Is about 50km from Athens and because my university is there i had to do 100km per day for 5 years. I 've been to Rhodes twice. It's a nice island and have a lot of tourists from England, especially at Faliraki. I suggest you to visit Zakynthos, Corfu and Crete, places with also a lot English tourists .
 
I've been to the big water park at faliraki loved it there. I'm not one of the drunken tourists lol I go with my wife and 2 kids.
 
Ugh.. English tourists, they're the worst!







And I'm not joking this time :p

Nice color you have on your Clio (atleast in your profile pic) & the Twingo & Clio are not the only cars that share the same engine, so does the Wind ;)
 
I love this car! It's so cute and cudly but in my country they didn't import it. I see that you have the 1.2 tce version. Great news for you. I am a member in the Greek Renault Club. We have a member that have a Clio with the same engine and he has tune it to 150hp!

I remapped mine from 97 bhp (100 bhp on paper) to 127 bhp & 190 Nm torque.

I could throw more money at it but for the moment I'm fine with the results :)

+ in Belgium there's not much more I can do thats legal for the road. Maybe a 200 cell cat and a fmic..

I do have some Clio 172 injectors that I haven't used yet.
 
Hi there - I am a greek but I left greece 10 years n now back - I'm 34 years oLd now- the greek market for cars is crazy - anyway hello my friend from greece -
I bought the old model a6 Audi Quattro turbo for 5k euro .
I used to live I singapore where cars are so costly it is mad - my wrx in singapore I bought cheap cause I could afford to pay 40 000 for the
2005 model n parts are cheap second hand etc
I have always drooled over the Clio rs n later the megane rs but 100 000 euro was just too much !
It's true the 2 litre tax levy is crazy so many 2 litre cars are trying to be got rid off - tat leaves me with the twingo rs 133 but not available at dealers.
It's perfect for me whom is a genuine car enthusiast - ti boro na Kano = wat can I do to get a small city car with some life n avoid mad taxes n fuel costs.
Smart roadster ?

I always buy second hand cause more bang for buck but as a greek eligible for loan n agent warranty made me set on a twingo 133 to zip around

I live near lAgonisi so there is a nice 15 km road along sea

€100,000 for a Clio is absolutely unbelievable!
