Best place to buy new parts?

[scalino65]

Hi. I have just bought a 172 cup and I think my alternator is on the way out. (very hot and smells of burning). I will test it all out at the weekend, but as I will definitely need to get new bits and pieces, where is the best place to get them please? I see wolverhampton renault mentioned alot when I search. Is there someone from there who;s a member on here? Would be good to have a contact name/friendly contact so I can check I'm getting the right bits,etc. I'll be keeping the car standard so I expect I'll just be after Renault/valeo parts.
Thanks in advance.

Just ring them and mention cliosport forum and he'l give you the discount and will check parts from using Reg.. They were brilliant when i needed a few bits for the Mrs 250 CUP

Other option is Renaultpartsdirect who also offer a decent service

Probably just pulling your leg. Take care of your 172 and it'll take care of you
