Short of having one of each, which are known to work, and trying each of them, I'm kind of out of ideas chap. Would Renault be able to tell you from their records? May be worth a try. If no joy, grab an aftermarket stereo and get someone else to wire it in ;)

It's pretty valid. You can take a TV back for a full refund it it has a design defect. You can reject a house if it's not built to code.

There are at least 2 different head units used in Clios. Tuner List Update List possibly more And, from what I've been led to understand, you can't swap between them, because of......something. In fairness, even the cheapest JVC offering will be 300% better quality than an OEM unit.

Could well be an issue with the stereo itself, if it's one they've had sat out the back for the last 4 years in a damp room.

Was it the welds on the RS that went?

I guess if Rover got away with the K-series for, what, nearly 2 decades? Ford will be able to swallow this one.

How has this impacted the spreadsheet?

Hagerty There is a lack of 'stance' and snapbacks though.

If it's not doing the job you primarily bought it for, get rid now while it's still an unabused, low-miler. £5k is a strong ask though.

Did they even do a manual V6 in the Mk.1 TT? just try driving one first. In something other than straight lines.

Isn't that what the LCR's 225s got? COuld easily be wrong here .....EDIT An ED30 will be "worth more", granted, with it being a limited run jobbie EDIT: Yep, that'll be the Mk.5 golf with a 2.0

Another vote for LCR, in whatever colour. Some examples.... and one which is a disgusting eyesore Grey Yellow Black Grey with modzzzz 6th-form knicker-snapper - Picture 19 includes some tasteful mods you may not expect "Low mileage" isn't really a thing you can pull with a decade-old mainstream...

This thread contains all the usual promise of a car having thousands being thrown at it, used for a fortnight, maybe even on a track once. Then sold

Well, I dropped a small amount on an "enhanced", booted Leon. It wasn't the cheapest move I've ever made, every month has brought a fresh "challenge". None of them being mods, just keeping it happy on it's own wheels. I convince myself I'm better off every time I read the MPG's, compared to the...

I wouldn't want to risk a £4k S3, or R32.

Sure you don't just like cars that look like they've fallen out of a Max Power centrefold? The RS Focus......surely just for builders who like to drive with a bicep taking up half the windscreen? Oh....and MarcCup, but in his case the entire dashboard is full of receipts and graphs :smile::up:

If it drags people into a showroom, where they then get hen-pecked by the other half into getting an i2 1.0 N-Line instead of the Evo- wet-dream-machine, because of real-world considerations..... then it's entirely done its job. If you strap a bodykit and big wheels to a shopping trolley, to...

It'd wouldn't hurt their bottom-line if they could make an N-line brand a trim level for the 1.0. Remember the Fabia vRS? See how they don't make them now? That's, among other things, because buyers wanted it a car that looked the part and didn't care if it had any juice to back it up. Your...

There'll be an N-line Just like there's an M-Sport and S-Line and SRi-VX Line and ST-Line. Or GT by RenaultSport It's about selling cars, not making friends on Pistonheads

Any non-A-class AMG Mercedes Job jobbed

+1 on MK.4 era VAG Waterpumps. Same on the 1.9 PD's

What is it you're really after chap? Something comfier than a clio cup, that will at least match it in pace?

How about a low=mileage Leon Cupra R. 225hp, but not losing 1/4 of it in Quattro? It wont have an audi badge on the nose, but there's loads of them scattered around the rest of the car ;)

They'll holdmoney while the warranty is still in effect. As for "lol, who'd buy the 250hp one"..... Who'd buy a Clio without it being a cup-packed RS? Or a Merc that isn't an AMG?

Rather that than a Renault. Colour looks like it came out a mid-70's Rover catalogue, but I'm hardly one to speak about colour choices.

Another vote for powerline. The only times it isn't a better idea: 1) old wiring 2) if you have more than 1 main board. The Powerline signal only goes as far as your....'consumer unit' (?, someone electrical will correct me here). ethernet > wifi

Alternator bracket snapped at 4yrs since last belts. lost the belt, obvs. Cams not affected

@Scrooge I can almost hear your teeth grinding to dust, just from typing it

172 did that. Out of the blue, the actual alternator bracket gave out. Made zero difference to the engine itself.

Non-V6 Clio as an investment? Does not compute
