I know this is a Clio forum but lots of people on here own things from other manufactures so I figured I'd post this here.
I have a Ross-Tech VCDS Hex-Can cable and live near Cardiff.
I've gotten all I need out of it so far but I'll be keeping it in case I need it for future...
So a friend of mine owns a Porsche and she is epic enough that she invited me along to the launch of the new 911 at the Cardiff Porsche dealership and I certainly wasn't going to turn it down!
I arrived first as she was running late and as soon as I turned up they knew I didn't belong and I felt...
Hello all.
I threw the idea of a South Wales rolling road day up here and it sounded like a few people would be interested in it so I figured it could do with a dedicated thread where we can get an idea of numbers and interest.
This would be a nice chance for the folks in Wales to have a chat...
Anybody else seen this?
The Black Mountain (A4069) and all the way from Llangadog to Brynamman is now a 40. No 50 or 60 stretches - all 40.
Well. That's certainly spoiled what is regarded as the best road in Wales.
They're going to make an absolute killing on that road this season.
Does anybody watch the Regular Car Review videos? He did a Mazdaspeed 6 video last week (6mps to us lot) and raises some very interesting questions.
If you don't watch this guy's videos then now is a good time to start :smile: He takes a very different approach to reviewing cars.
Unusual request I know but it's a ball-ache as I don't have a Clio anymore and Google Images is surprisingly not being helpful.
I'm doing a Torque (the Android App) write up and a few of the plugins because I've seen a few questions floating around and it's a guide I haven't spotted yet. If...
Now I've actually got things to talk about on this car I figured I should make a proper thread for it as half the folks on here don't own a Clio anymore anyway. :innocent:
Anyway I bought the car off a friend in June. Him and his better half owned the car for about 3 years and he takes...
Hi all,
My dad is currently selling a genuine Renault Power Steering Pump on eBay and as he's bored of trying to sell it I thought I'd shamelessly plug it and give him a hand. :)
It was originally bought brand new for my mums 2001 Renault Scienic but was never fitted and the car is now gone...
My friend is looking to part ways with his rather fantastic Toyota Celica ST205 GT-Four WRC, so I'm going to shamelessly plug it just to help him out. :)

Rather than talk about the condition of the car, I will talk about the man. I look after my things...
Thought this might interest a few folks on here.
Currently at £4200 but I assume this will only go up.

I know this is meant to be in the Local Meets section - but nobody looks in there as often as they do here! So I hope the mods overlook this one and don't come down too hard. :dapprove:
Anyway - myself and @Filters are going to meet up tomorrow and go for a spin. We're going to do a large chunk...
In the title really.
There's some 'cruise' thing tomorrow night probably around Llanelli, does anybody actually bother with this stuff? Or shall I write it off as I was planning to and save my fuel for the mountains.
Had a good day today and it was nice to finally enjoy a bit of sunshine.
My friend and I decided to take my Clio for a spin around the Elan Valley and a few other places so I thought I'd upload a few photos. :)
There's so much to see in Mid-Wales and so much stunning scenery to take in. I've...
This has nothing to do with myself! My car is fine and I wouldn't do anything this retarded.
Chatting to a guy at work today, seems he did some stupid s**t over the weekend.
My colleague (lets call him James) went out and ended up in a head on collision. By all accounts both cars have been...
Nice to know someone else here drives a 182.
I haven't got a cs.net sticker on my car yet because I'm a lazy f**k and haven't gotten around to it.
I did take a piccy but I forgot to upload it to Dropbox before I sat down again.
If you want to say aloha, come see Mike in Team 7. :)...
Saw a crash on the M4 this morning and saw what looked like a 172 involved.
Didn't really get a good look as I was going the other way but car looked fine but there were boat loads of emergency vehicles hurtling towards it.
Just wanted to make sure nobody was hurt. :(
Anybody else get emailed something like this today?
I live in Wales where the 3G is "good enough" by O2's standards. In the centre of Cardiff my speeds don't exceed ~2.5mb where as my mate on EE gets 4G as fast as the fibre to my door - and where he doesn't get LTE, he sees 3G pretty much...

Is that for real? Can't find anything other sources.
TL;DR : My friends and I in Wales want to play retro coin-op games. Tell us where to find some.
Bit of a random one this - I was out with a couple of friends this evening. Just an impromptu gathering of local mates and after deciding we could not be arsed with going out and joining the crowds...
This follows on from a thread I spotted on the PH forum.
How many of you use the engine to slow the car when approaching a set of lights rather than using the brakes?
I like to drop a cog or two as I'm approaching roundabouts where there is clear visibility or when I'm approaching a set of...
Popped down to see Charlie at Pro Speed today and have him build me an exhaust. He cut back into the cat as well so that's no longer a bottleneck on the car either.
Top blokes down there and a good laugh.
It was dark when I went to pick it up so I haven't had a chance to take any further...
I fear this is a stupid question but my search results aren't giving me a definitive answer.
My wheel bolts look like turd so I'd like to smarten up the car a bit.
Can I do a straight swap of bolts from the originals at 24mm to these? (27mm)...
Did a quick search on the answer to this and I seem to be coming up below average, so I thought I'd make a thread.
Went for my MOT today and I was surprised to hear I'd failed on (both) the front tyres.
It would seem I've killed a pair of Continental Sport Contact 3s in just over 6500 miles - I...

Just curiosity. Not seen this one on the forum.
Yes it looks clean and very well looked after (not sure about this lights and the black badges) but for at least...
I'm overhauling my suspension set up as even though the car actually rides ok, it's now approaching the 60k mark, it's 9 years old and could probably do with a refurb.
I'm ordering 4 new shocks, Eibach Sportline springs, Pure Motorsport top mounts and new drop links and anti-roll bushes.
I've...
