Just wanted to give these guys a big thumbs up. They sorted out lots of niggles for me on the V6 that main dealers had failed to rectify. For a brake pad change (pads supplied by me), fixing a very annoying air conditioning fault (required re-wiring), new air filter and MOT it cost £150...

Is there any way of the locking the boot without using the central locking remote? I note you can lock the doors independently but the boot seems to be another matter. Anyone any clues?

Well I have the same problem. I live in SW London and used SMC Woking. It was a complete disaster. Of the 3 faults I asked them to look at, none were fixed and I had the helpful comment further time needed to investigate. The car was supposedly valeted but was filthy when I picked it up. They...

An interesting topic this. I think the Clio makes most sense secondhand. I came from a 911 GT3 which was fantastic but - get this - too fast for this country IMO. It was a great car but I had too much money tied up in it and it became more and more of a worry. I thought Id lose my license...

The price was including ONE tyre. The other faults that they couldny find/ rectify were - air con causing engine revs to jump significantly and make driving slowly difficult; coolant smell on hot days; whsitling noise on certain throttle openings. I also noticed yesterday that the tyre...

Good question! I also bought a Lamborghini though...

Thanks for the help guys I must use full throttle a bit more often then! I will check out all the hoses to make sure there are no coolant leaks Craig

Hi Ive just bought Knockers car - picked it up today. Its fantastic and great fun - Im coming from a 911 GT3 so I suppose they have something in common! I have 2 questions though - 1) is it normal to smell coolant from time to time? (I used to get this on an Elise I once owned so...

thanks I think I must have had brain fade today! I thought it was Jan 03 and not Jan 04... also, any recommendations for servicing - are SMC Guildford/ Woking any good?

Hello Im looking to buy a Clio V6 at the moment and have a warranty related question. The car has done 21k miles and was last serviced at 12k in Jan 2004. It has had an oil change in between but the book hasnt been stamped for this. My question is that as the last official service was over...
