    Removing Rounded Screw?

    Think all the angles have been covered, once you get it out you will have a great glow as you beat the bugger, seem to have done the same to a few bolts on Renault seat frames, are they thread locked? Carl

    Unhappy clio newb

    I am in Leicester city centre (www.cgcarsleicester.co.uk) if you need a second opinion, me personally i think it sounds like a coincidence, if he has drove that many miles and it was fine. Sorry to hear this though fella, are you sure a piece of the starter motor hasnt fell in the bell...

    Loading a bobcat onto a truck

    Rust proofing

    Any local garage can do it for you, its a messy job so it needs to be done in a well ventilated area, if you want to tackle it yourself you can buy it in an aerosol form, i think a aerosol tin is around £6 each, they are small tins but do go quite a long way. Carl

    Low & High mileage - As bad as each other?

    Just have a good look around and take it for a drive, i have a low mileage car and its great as it has minimal rattles and everything is nice and tight. Just ignore the miles and inspect it like you would any other. Carl

    Big effort, big money - still a 1.4 though!

    Seen this car in the flesh, it was at the audio place i took mine too, Plush automotive in Broughton Astley leicester, the work on that car will be top notch. I like it but as you say its a little dear to say the least. Carl

    Nicely done, but in dreamland

    Me neither, if you look at the good ones they seem to fetch a premium, i would'nt let mine go for anyless than the above. Its like all the older stuff the fiesta xr2's etc if in good nick they fetch good money. Carl
