Recently got my hands on a Red Corolla T-Sport with 65K on the clock.
Mechanically this car appears to of been well maintained, serviced and cared for, it drives beautifully (especially over 6200rpm).
The downside is the bodywork and interior all came to me a little scruffy, therefore the last...
As some of you may have previously seen my first car was a Clio Campus Sport which was my pride and joy for a year and a half. I enjoyed making it my own and keeping it clean and tidy.
Come university I had to sell up because I wasn't sure how funds would cope with a car at uni. Now with one...
I know there is threads on this problem, however I just wanted to double check that it's not the HG. Am I correct in believing this is condensation build up? The car is run twice a day for a 10 mile run, mainly on A roads, you would think that would be long enough for it to warm up. I can't say...
I have just DIY re-furbed my 182 alloys, I used all Halfords paint and lacquer. How long do I need to wait before polishing and sealing? It's been a week since I sprayed the last coat of lacquer.
Cheers.
Thought I'd share the pictures from my trip up to the Morgan factory in Malvern.
I drove up this morning and found some nice windy B roads on route to have a play on, got to the place at 1 o'clock for a guided tour. Prices were reasonable considering the tour lasted 2 hours. Some properly wicked...
A high pitch screech, only happens when engines cold. It's not loud only noticeable if you know it's there and only recently developed. The noise lasts about 0.5 seconds.
Anyone have any ideas or similar issue?
Thought it would be a good idea to refurb my 182 alloys in time for summer. Only two need doing and I didn't fancy splashing out £100+ for them to be professionally done. In an ideal world I wanted all four to be bmws sparkling graphite, however funds and the fact two are in great condition put...
I bought a ktec exhaust system and went about trying to fit it myself...
With a lot of swearing the old exhaust came off and I have managed to fit the ktec centre pipe from the cat. However the back box is proving a nightmare, for a start the rear exhaust hanger is different, can this OEM hanger...
So yesterday was my 18th birthday and Dad has said he would like to pay for me to do a track day. It's nothing serious just wanted to have a little bit of fun and try driving on a track.
Question is what sort of track day should I go on? Or would it be better to have an instructor session?
Any...
I have just bought a recessed supersport of eBay, hasn't arrived yet, but is it possible to mount this under the rear bumper? I don't fancy cutting my bumper as it's a campus sport 1.2 therefore will go back to standard one day before selling.
The link to the exhaust is...

How much is this worth, very interested but not sure on the price?
What size rubber grommet do I need to blank the rear wiper hole?
I know halfords do sets of them, could someone link me the correct one if you don't know the size?
Cheers, Kieran.
These arrived today http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/191166354089?_trksid=p2060778.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT
Went to fit them and they are the right fitment and light up when turned on, however the bulb is too wide to fit through the metal plate which locks it in place, meaning I had to...
I have a clio campus sport, looking for a cup spoiler, I believe mine is ottoman blue, is this the same shade of blue as the arctic blue which the cup comes in?
Here is a picture of the shade of blue of the campus.
Looking into buying a pair to go on the 1.2 this evening, any advice to whether they are decent or problems to look out for? I've done some research and the inner ring has snapped for some people, however this is just the 16mm ones?
Cheers,
Kieran.
After telling myself I didn't want to get drawn into detailing I can't stop reading about it and want in. I am a little confused by everything on the market and what's best for a beginner. Could someone break down the steps and give me some advice on what to buy or point me in the direction of a...
I have been cleaning cars for years, trying to make a fiver off my neighbours, only since getting my clio and joining this forum have I become aware of the detailing world. However being 17 and having a Saturday job I don't have the biggest budget to run the clio let alone spend £50 on a pot of...
Just joined Clio Sport so I thought I would post a thread about my Clio.
I have been driving for around 5 months now, I have a 1.2 Clio campus sport as my first car. Despite it being sluggish compared to other 1.2's on the road I have fallen for it. I bought it from a Renault Dealership with one...
