To be fair the way some cleaners clean our own cleaning will always be better :lol:

How you finding it ?

 

[Gordini_133]

ive seen some SHOCKING cleaners, ma mate had a guy clean his civic type r, he used one bucket, one sponge, for everything, starting with the wheels!! and dropped the sponse 7 times on gravel lol he had to tell the guy to stop and **** off lol haha

Ah its an awsome car, was gonna get the clio or megane cup, but insurance was a nightmare for some reason, but its a great car, i do town driving, so its perfect, proper nippy, quick, amazing handling, love it!

I was looking at Clios but love the Twingo so much i got one instead :lol: i dont drive mine much i stick to a push bike

But yea handling and its nippyness makes it a super car

 

[Gordini_133]

any you think doing and engine conversion and putting a R2 in will be cheaper ?.....

 

[Gordini_133]

i know someone who had a normal renault clio, and done an engine conversion to get the clio 182 engine, and he claimed that the insurance stayed the same, but its dodgy....my mum has worked in insurance for so many years and she said that doing something like that is dodgy because if you crash and you haven't declared the conversion and the power difference, they wont pay out.... i still think that the insurance will go up because its not the model of the car, its the engine, and if you do an engine conversion, your pretty much buying a more powerful car, i would just not do it to be honest
