go to pistonheads and do a search for tyre finder, will come up with their thingy
Just put in the size you want and it will come up with a big list of tyres in that size and prices
Try ebay as well, bargains to be had there! get my tyres mostly off ebay now;)

What you having done to the engine?
I've finally got the wilwoods & RSi skirts and all the other bits and bobs I bought off you, fitted to my valver http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=358941
Thanks guys :D
Just a personal preference with the ph1 mirrors, I think they look smarter, you dont see many valvers with them on these days. I've always prefered ph1 mirrors and ph2 grill tbh
The vee used to belong to riz, my m8 picked it up 3 days after I got mine back
Got myself an F7R...
It's been 7 months since I had a little oversteer induced off road excursion :oops: and done this damage to my baby :cry: :cry: as well as the all the suspension damage
I wasn't too worried about the cosmetic damage as the plan ever since I bought it was to get full respray. So the...
Fair play to ya mate :approve:
French car ownership: annoying heaps of sh*te that break and cost a fortune yet so rewarding they're worth every drop of blood, sweat, tears and money that goes into it:approve:
£150 for 4-5 hours labour is a fcukin bargain :eek: -£30 for the clutch and it's £120 labour, £20-30 per hour is very cheap:eek:
Let the garage do it, not worth the hassle DIY to only save £120 for a new clutch
I've found that the combination of discs & pads are quite a big factor performance wise, certain disc/pad combinations seem to be quite poor
e.g. I've heard a lot of people have said ebc greenstuff pads are sh*te, I had greenstuff pads with ebc discs that were a massive improvement over std...
it's a bit sad to see people giving up on valvers lately, all cars will get to the point of being money pits due to age.
I've stuck with mine and it's a minter now:D
If I could afford it I'd like a 172 as my borin everyday car and the valver as a toy
lol @ lisa, now I understand a bit more...
Same here, can only get on here & WC while I'm at work. What's Gav done?:S
PITT manouvre FTW:rasp: french tin Vs. T5 tank, hmmmmm I think it would be the automotive equivalent to gang rape lol!
Joking aside, prats like that learn the hard way, most of em end up dead:nono:
me & my m8 could have a go
he's got an ex-police T5, hasn't polished the bonnet so you can still see POLICE where the stickers used to be.........might sh*t him up a bit and calm down
nice to see a fellow C16v member on here :approve:
Recently had a full respray done on my valver :cool: . I know not to polish it for at least a month.
What I want to know is, how I should go about giving the car its 1st polish?
What sort of product/technique would you recommend?
Any advice on looking after brand new paintwork would be...
Another good source of information is www.williamsclio.co.uk , do your homework and look at a few to get a better feel for them.
The only reason most people say they're unreliable seem to forget they're older cars, and things wear out so the thing are gonna cost money, so will the 182's 197's...
I would go for it m8, as said if its documented as well all the better, I'd find that sort of honesty encouraging when buying a car :approve:
My housemate is buyin your vee :cool: our driveway is gonna look mad:rasp: will look sweet next to my valver (which is absolutely immaculate...
should've raced him, don't matter how much power he's got if he can't slow down proper
Just outbrake the tool and watch him have a 1.8 16v turbo off roader :evil:
You should be ok, if the police etc do a check it will come up as showing a valid mot until the date it runs out.
But be careful as there can still be things wrong with the car that can incur penalty points & fines dodgy tyres/brakes or even no water in the washer bottle if the weather is dodgy
