Hi Folks, Not technically a Clio question, but it's pretty close... Recently had a crash in the wet weather an my car has been declared a total loss. However, the silver lining is that I'm now free to look at something a bit more fun. Since being a kid I've always fancied a Clio Williams but...

Nice one! Thank you muchly!

Hi Folks, I have a 2005 1.2 16v Expression 2dr (leccy windows, no ac -the model just before the Mk3 arrived) and sadly some utter twunt stoved in my drivers door- not leaving details or anything. :mad: Genuinely anoyed as the car was in perfect condition previously - polished religiously...

Awesome, thanks guys! I shall not worry about it now. Had a mate look it over who work for euro car parts and he said the same. Mother's bf also echoed that so I shall just have the arb bushes replaced this time around.

I haven't touched the suspension since I bought the car, and I can't think that it's worked it's way loose... If anyone can shed some light on this it would be great.

Just investigating my wooly handling and found this. (the fag is there to emphasize the gap) I'm right in thinking that this is really not right is it? New mount time? Cheers. Dave

Thanks for the advice. I can't find any to fit in his shop so I've emailed him (in my best school boy french) to see if he does them for the 1.2 16v. Does anyone have any experience of these kits? Dave

Hi all, After 80k the time has come to replace my shocks, so I'm looking to upgrade to a set of coilovers. I've heard that 1.2 16v's have a different fitment to all the other clios (23mm hub spacing?) - just wondering if anyone knew of a set that would fit nicely? I'm looking to spend as...

Hi All. I've been driving my 2005 1.2 16v for 5 years now (owned from new) and I feel it's time to trade up to a 172 / 182 / trophy if I'm lucky. I haven't even tried to sell the car just yet but I'm gearing up to do things this month. I could do with some help re pricing really as I have...

Hi all, I'm having issues with the Clio at the moment, I have a 2005 1.2 16v. From time to time - when I come to drive the car the passenger side rear brake sticks on when it's been parked up. Normally this happens only in wet weather - leading me to think that there was some water...

Disconnect the battery for about 30 mins... that used to work in my smart- hopefully it should work with the clio. We used to have to spark the live terminal to 'shock' our ECU's into releasing.

Ooooh! a free ecotect valve... wouldn't have one at that price lol. Just a quick question- feel free to call me stupid if you feel like it... is the acoustic valve exclusive to 182's and the sportier versions? Or is it on every clio?

Any luck on fitting that pipe then?

Hi guys, The time has come around to service my 2005 1.2 16v and rather than replace the standard items like for like at main dealer money, I'd rather replace them with quality items which wouldn't void the warentee (or at least would be hard to detect or easy -less than 2 hours- to remove)...

I was thinking of doing a 126 with a smart engine coversion. The idea never really took off but thats spurred me on!
