I saw a 19 16v in the Scrappy today in a gorgeous metallic green colour, didn't see any rust, it was truly heartbreaking every panel was seriously dented, the interior had been taken out. Will take pics next time I'm there. A sad day for one 16v. Crying or Very sad

Theres many a 16V in the scrappy cos the engine has been put in a clio etc.

Hardly ever see a 16v round here....if i do im always peering at it as we pass each other and funnily enough the driver of the other 16v always seems to be doing the same (usually!) Laughing

Last week I saw a P1 16V in 449 blue in Manchester. First time I've seen a 16V of any description, either Clio or 19 in the 3 years I've been in Manchester.

By contrast, I've seen several Ferrari's, Aston's, top-end Audi's/BMW's/Merc's and even the odd Bentley!

there are loads of clio valvers and 19 valvers here in southend, i've met the female owner of the red ph2 at last, unsocialable cow she turned out to be, lol, parked up next to her at the local petrol station, she came out and i said, nice 19, she just said 'yeah it will do' and bogged off lol.

when i was at the breakers on saturday i met the owner of a black ph1 hatch, he was there for a fuel pump, told him about this site.

i ought to take my digicam around with me and try to get pics of all the valvers around here.
