Any reason for you selling so soon just seen it on pistonheads?? http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/3628885.htm

Was just about to post this up myself. What a joke £450 for a pair of severely broken seats, you would need to be a complete t**t to buy those! What exactly could you do with them apart from look at them!!!

Matte grey from the new 200 raider or a ph1 LY would look mint IMO.

Don't touch it just leave them, the look better standard LY R27 shouldn't be messed with.

The main reason for changing the water pump with the belts is your going from and old loose belt to a newer possibly a little bit tighter belt which can cause the pump to fail IMO when you have access to it all and for a £30 part it might as well be done because if you don't and it does fail its...

Unfortunately this is just one of the 197 little problem, there is a patch for the ECU available from Renault but it doesn't really help that much. When I had mine I just got used to leaving it running for about 5-10min before setting off on a journey to avoid this but when the engine cold it's...

Yeah it does did about 100miles in it on Sat and it's minging again but at least it's got some good protection on it now and should clean up easier now. RS badges can be had of eBay but you won't find them cheap anywhere, expect about 30-40quid!!

Here are the after shots Sorry forgot to take pics of the engine bay, which is crap coz it was looking great too. Next on the list of things to do is pick up my cup spoiler and get it painted/fitted then sort out my Xenons as they are looking a bit dodgy. Thanks for looking...

Right been hanging about here for a while now so thought I better get posting. Did a sort of mini (2days) detail of my car. Started off yesterday morning and finished up tonight. Here is run down of what happened and some before and after pics, didn't get to many during polishing as garage...

Just did this yesterday, bumper off job not difficult follow the guide on here or type how to remove Clio bumper into google to get a PDF guide. Parts are cheap too I paid bout £20 for both from Renault.

Try getting them from Renault sure there quite expensive I had to buy a set for a PH1 172 once sure it was nearly £70

There is one white one in the uk handpick customer by Renault.

Saw a black 182 today driving alongside loch ness today R* ELF, looked like u were out for some fun. Anyone on here??

Gearboxes only have 750rpm difference in 6th gear not huge change and it didn't come in until early 2008 so a lot of early R27 have this box too. My opinion find a tidy R27 and a standard 197 with recaros and drive both then test a 200 to decided probably not a great deal in it. I used to...

Well after about just over a year with my mk5 GTi, I'm back to renault sport again, previously over the last 6-7 years I've had a Clio RSi, PH1 172, FF197 and a Megane R26, after having flywheel and gearbox trouble with the GTi I had it was going to be expensive repairs so I decided to get rid...
