I've just brought an R27 off a forum member and it's a lovely car. A lot of fun to drive. And less rattles than my old 172.

Just done a 200 mile round trip today to view matts r27 today. Decided to buy it Sony gotta do another 200 mile round trip again next week. But if it's worth it then I'm prepared to travel.

That silver one will be me I train Friday after work.

I know there was another silver Clio 172 going there a while ago but not seen it for a bit. You would know mine by all the filth on it and the tsw wheels.

Yep that's me buddy

Hi all. Maybe someone can help. If you open up the fuel pump under the rear seat in a 172 there is a little non return valve. It's like a rubber cap thing. I am missing mine. And it's causing me problems on low fuel when I go round a roundabout. Has anyone got a broken pump they could fish...

Possibly me as I live in church Langley and I've been off work this week with the wife. Mine is lowerd and has tsw wheels and a decat so it would be obvious.

Yeah seems to disappear as I rev. I know they sound a little sewing machine like anyway. I also thought dephaser. Can someone please explain to me what the dephaser actually does ?

Hey as per title really. Sounds really tappetey on idle it performs fine or seems to as its always sounded like this. But not ever hearing another ph2 172 I can't tell. It did spend a week in Renault last year and they didn't say anything ?

I'm in Harlow. But used to live in theydon. Was there earlier visiting my parents.

just spent 2 hours last night replacing my bulb, water had got up into the ignighter and caused it to fail, once it dried out it was ok, but as with the joys of owning a renault, the headlight adjuster managed to snap while i was replacing the bulb..

Ok this is an odd problem, i had a map sensor fail on me and this similar symptoms, but its not the map sensor. When i go full lock right round a roundabout the car can only be described to as suffereing from fuel starvation, as its starts to judder and jolt, similar to when my map sensor was...

I'm in Harlow too, could poss make a meet

Look out for me. Most dirtiest iceberg 172 in Harlow with tsw wheels.
