Back in August 2012 I had a complete new exhaust from cat through to backbox - all back to standard (after my lovely BTB was stolen by those who deal in scrap metal) About a month ago I started to hear a rattling noise coming from the back. I thought it would go away but it hasn't! I've just...

He's got 3! Stocking up ;) You could start a business selling them!

I had the BTB fitted to mine, not too intrusive on the noise front at cruising speeds, just loud when you put your foot down! Sadly some thieves decided to steal the middle section of my exhaust :boring: so I am also looking for a new one as we speak

The dreaded circlip went in my gearbox so I'm debating whether to spend a little extra on a new clutch whilst the box is being rebuilt!

I have a 52 reg Clio Cup. Probably going to embarrass myself here but I'll ask anyway... Are there any differences between the gearbox of a Cup and a non-Cup? I know there are differences between the boxes in the 172 and the 182.

£850 included the price of a new driveshaft, too (which isn't much!) They said they need to remove the engine, too! I've told them to wait whilst I get a couple more quotes! I'm not in a rush as I don't use the car every day... So, you all suggest I use a Renault specialist (know to CS) who...

Cheers guys, I appreciate your responses... The garage has confirmed this is the problem! The garage (I know the owner well) have quoted me £900 to put it all right (8-9 hours labour), send gearbox off to specialist etc 1. Am I being ripped off? 2. Can anyone recommend anywhere local to...

Hey guys I took my car on an auto test event on Saturday. So much fun! Over the day of 5-6 hours I drove the car for about 16 minutes in total (warmed up/left running properly etc). The cone course was very tight, 2nd gear for 90% of the course... Though, my day was ruined by a problem... On my...

I saw this car on PH classifieds back in September, it made it onto my shortlist and I was going to go look at it but found and bought another one just before! Small world! I am refurbing one of my alloys on my 52 Cup and need a spare wheel! Does anyone know of the best sized wheel to fit...

I have got a couple but not got any proper ones yet! Here is a pic from the advert... http://cdn.images.pistonheads.com/aimg/3117/3117580-1.jpg

Would it be wrong to put an RS badge (that would be for a Ford) on a Clio? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Ford-RS-Badge-Emblem-Blue-Fiesta-Focus-Mondeo-Ka-NEW-/170639515286?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item27bae85e96

cool, I'll check out Wests Renault :) thanks for the tip! Went for a bit of a drive this weekend, really happy with the way the car handles more than anything. Brilliant fun

You can prob get the foam stuff on ebay. I found some magnetic strips on there that I couldn't get anywhere else!

Heya! On Monday I picked up my 2002 Clio Cup! My name is Kris, I'm 26, live in Malvern, Worcestershire. Previously owned some fun and 'special' cars including... 2x Fiesta Zetec-S DC2 Integra Type-R EG Civic My mate owned a Clio Trophy and convinced me to go for the Cup if I wanted to go...
