thats a good idea, but no unfortunatly i not got any break down cover! maybe it could be the air filter? i done nearly 18000 miles in just over 3 and half years and its never had a new one!

damn! how expensive are these? and are they easy to fit yourself? or would it be best to get it diagnostic checked at renault?

I had a scorpion on my old Valver! think they look the best! http://erc.qmuc.ac.uk/cliosport/gallery/full/1073942001__Trevclio3.jpghttp://erc.qmuc.ac.uk/cliosport/gallery/full/1073941906__TREVCLIO4.jpg

On a Valver/Will the box is dirctly on the TB so even if you insulate the box the heat will get in though it! And if you insulate the box you are more than likely going to keep heat in the box.

Got my Documents through today!:D Think it took a while because they have changed the forms. And the new forms wernt coming out till 2004.

My old Valver used to goan when i turned the wheels. I toped up the power steering fluid and it never made another sound again in the 3 years i owed it! Hope this helps

was this done on the mk 1 172?

Put me down!

Yeah a pic would be good! Im just trying to work out how you can get the top of the box on when you have the induction kit going into the original pipe?

If i wanted to pay £2000 more then i would have done!

Do you mean the car or the documents?

I have had had my cup since 21 november and i have not recieved any of the registration paperwork for it yet! I bought it from a broker. Does it normaly take a while for the documents to come through?

LOL Na not been up that way lately. So maybe there is a turbo charger sitting under there! (runs outside for a look)

I got one of the last Cups so maybe they fitted them to the last few;)

nice one! na i just thought they might have put something like paint code: TED43 not just TED43 Sorry is it TED43 or D43?

Just been out and had a look at mine and there is a code saying TED43 nothing that it is the paint code though.

Thanks alot mate i appreciate your help! :D
