Trade n Save are the old Renault garage, opposite Tesco opposite the old cattle market. They did my cam belt change. They are Renault specialists and did a good job of mine. Or Renault? Do they have a workshop?

If you can a few days before spay some WD40 onto the bleed nipples for a few days before hand to help free them up. I also second the Ezebleed, it took two minutes to do and got it spot on first time. Get about 3x 500ml of brake fluid, you might not need the third bottle but it is best to have...

Black front end looks smart, even better against the red. I was going to to the same on mine, but went agaisnt it and just did the grill bit. Glad I didn't as I have seen a few Titaniums with it and it doesn't look right. Yours is spot on. Have you thought about gong black front lights? I also...

You also aren't having the suspension back, that is staying on mine!! haha. Glad you are happy with it, presume there are plans for it?

And I am quoting now: "Doesn't look like a ph1 too me" 😂 RB is the only colour Ph2 I would have (ignoring the daily I have but that's not a sport!). When the Ph1 is "finished" I will be getting an RB daily.

I am never sure what to use through the chicanes, 3rd feels too sluggish pulling out and 2nd is a bit too low/lots of revs going into them. But I will admit I am not going full on through them to push for third really. I probably should just attack them a bit more and have more confidence and...

Does this mean you are coming back to the Dark Side?

@imprezaworks I've got a Ph1 so I think @Ads29 is right? And no wonder I couldn't find it again as I wasn't searching for rear gear box mount!!

Damn too slow!! Lol. Even when it's not for sale yet I am too slow! The PMS one does look nice too, and it is tempting me by that. But if there is an alternative I would be open to as well. Just didn't want to go the route of wasting money when it could be a simple fix. Hoping the dog bone...

I had the black Ph1 saved in my eBay and it's now gone and can't find it anywhere. I can find the Ph2 but this is useless to me! Yeah the car is mainly track.....with the occasional drive to visit the girlfriend which is a 500mile round trip! It drives better on the motorway than the 1.4 Ph2...

I knew knew I should have done it last week as the my are not £25 any more! And I can't find an option for the stiffer one, not fussed about the vibrations as its a track car. I will have to see f I can buy direct from here. Noooo, car is more important! Haha. Mine only knocks when pulling off...

I've had recently a flashing EML that doesn't throw a fault code. Similar symptoms as your lumpy idle. Leave it running from cold it idles a bit dodgey then after 5mins the EML starts to flash. Turn car off and on it doesn't come back on but if driven before this happens it is fine. I am...

You also having the exhaust knocking!! Well that is sorted then, swap for the Motorsport Evol dog bone mount to start with! And then going on what others have said do a few more up grades before splashing the cash. Just the advice I was hoping for!!! This will be next months jobs :up:

The polish I used worked really well, it was more of a re-protecting it as surely over polishing something will take any protection off? Or is that metal polish Finish stuff the product I am after?

Exhaust was fitted about a month ago, proper bling and looks really nice. But a session at Combe turned it slightly brown from the excessive heat. Not a problem as I used some Autosol (I think that's it's name, looks like tooth paste in a black/gold tube) and it came up like new. But did two...

Isn't the plate removable? Looks like it is attached around the holes with like wire for quick removal. Also liking the decals. Makes me want to do mine as mine ideally needs a respray. But would rather spend the cash on performance! And decals/wrapping it is a lot cheaper!!

Would rather buy the Calrton than a house. Probably be a better investment.

Don't get me started on lumpy idle.......I am having issues with that, but got an idea how to sort it. Some pointers in this thread if you need http://www.cliosport.net/threads/injector-issues.792412/ My thermostat has been like this for over a year now. Yes I know I am lazy seeing as I have...

Mine is the same. When stuck in traffic it does increase to normal temp and then more if really stuck in traffic and then the fan kicks in. I have a thermostat just not got around to fitting it yet.

I did run a tank of Redex injector cleaner and two tanks of V-power for the first long journey after the winter as it was off the road for about 4 months. Then I started having injector issues - one was broke for sure as it was a 3 cylinder. But then occasinally I get this lumpy idle like what...

Mine put up an error when I was driving around with one not attached. Somehow it unplugged itself while driving. Not sure how. But if you have a code reader then it's not really an issue

Maybe that's why mine isn't throwing a code when the EML starts to flash, and only does so after a while of idle and then turns off when I restart the car, it's like one the limit of being an error. When the one injector did go (and when one wasn't actually connected) it was flashing constant...

Flashing EML is faulty injector. Apparently you can check their electrical resistance, not sure what to look for on this.

Euro Car Parts, online price is about £40. That's for a Magnetti Marelli one. Same product as GSF and they want about £60. When I bought one last month the guy on ECP was shocked how cheap it was, just ask for the online price in store. Thinking about it, I have the same issue as you, I may...

This thread is going to be the end of me. My eBay search is now retro cars and I have been tempted so many times.

Got 19mpg on a 15min session at Castle Combe on Saturday!! That is a record low for me. Needs to be worse. Got it back to 35mpg on the drive home. Hopefully will get 45+mpg on the 4 hour drive to North Wales on the weekend like last time I drove up there.

It was the first track car at home that we didn't "build". Made quite a bit of money from the old Triumph we built so decided to buy something ready to go. It was pretty nippy. Was the first quick car I ever drove but I never drove it like it deserved. I managed a 59second lap around Llandow in...

That was my step dad's. Was built with a 1.6 Cross flow in it then he started it whilst in gear and it hit that bench and damaged the bonnet. But he couldn't get a replacement one so had to get the new style bonnet and then he dropped a 2ltr Blacktop Zetec in it and kept the twin Webber carbs...

That picture is a Roomster....but that Yeti is epic, and he knows how to drive as well. That Roomster was getting smokier and smokier every time I saw it! Did anyone see that 4x4 go around? Think it was a Shogun or something. Totally standard and it made for comical watching. Probably shouldn't...

I love retro cars!!! Metro has to be the best. Turned down the oppoortunity to buy a nice MG Metro the other year, but I had my sensible head on and didn't do it. Would have been the perfect daily car The closest thing I have "owned" to a retro hot hatch was the previous track car at home - Mk 1...
