nice one- just a shame for non-facebookers (Never done it, never will)

my belief is that mechanics not experienced in Clios see the yellow SERV light and just think its time for a dealer service, and owner is ignoring Obvs any red lights they get concerned about

Ah well- comradeship is the name of the game. Snuggle up under the Cliosport tent then. So long as theres a warm cuppa :-) Mind you, they've quoted rain everyday down here this week pretty much, and weve had a few spatterings only

I know its not something car show attendees usually talk about... but any idea on the weather Will be there whatever tbh

Realise this was a while back, but Halfords do Silkolene Pro 4 Plus oil 5w40, but say its for bikes only Does that matter? Engine oil is engine oil is it not? Pricey too, but like to try something else when i change oil in couple weeks

i paid 200 for a rear half cage off here, and £200 for plates welded in to bolt it to, and for it to be fitted, at a specialist drift car place

no 7am'ers queueing at the gate for opening then? Mist hovering all over Silverstone Not my idea of a nice day, an early wake up either, but paying £50 for entrance, gotta make the most of it Somewhere round 7.45 for me I think,

unfortunately the later you get there (Unless its 11am) the longer the queue's

for Club stand ticket holders, site accessopens at 7am

what- 6.30?

going up the Saturday before, as its a killer drive from Sussex coast to get there for 7am on a Sunday Otherwise would have drove up gunshot with you

Yes- i missed this too. Sept 8th went away to sunny Tenerife and only got just got home and logged on yestday will keep eyes open for next one

Fair point getting a car all done, as i would probably do that in future Just when I was looking the thought of spending close on £2k on a 15 year old track car was a phallacy Now that i have done that (lol) i would consider in future getting one all done Saying that, Ive had a year of fun and...

yep- club entry 7am on TRAX website Now trying to find the postcode for the entry point closest to T5

Yep, just downloaded and printed all the tickets and stuff, and track time info Us is car 3/32 We are Milton Keynes the night before, are the gates open 7am for Clubs? - havent found that bit yet. Says 10am show opens for general public Happy to meet up with anyone round Milton Keynes or en...

seems a tadge pricey for a 115k miler, but certainly a few extras. Just depends if its those extras that you want I plumped for a £550 phase 1, then spent £1k on it concentrating on tyres, seats (Corbeau new) half roll cage install, and general servicing Got my belts to do next year, and...

so whats the final tally of those attending- see there is 14 confirmed on this thread, must be a few more than that?

just to confirm for anyone reading this thread, a yellow SERV light permanently ON will NOT fail an MOT. Will not even be commented on in relation to mine. "Noisy exhaust" was only comment on mine :-)

Get a roll bar fitted if its for track, i got a 172 (Non cup) but would probably go the extra bit and get a 197 now Cup is cheaper for cambelt changes etc- no air con. get a Cup if its gonna be used on track a fair bit as less bits on it, full fat for comfort and roaduse. 15inch wheels- cheaper...

Selling a car is a lot easier, and you get more money, if its a runner So maybe join the RAC/AA/ BRitannia and leave it couple weeks, then call them out They should diagnose, then if you get it going, stick it in for a cheapo (£30) MOT? Trailer it if need be.

Thats interesting as this is the first paragraph of the email the sent me which made me think they would mail it: Thank you for your club order for TRAX 2017. Your order number is 1718** and you have booked with ClioSport This email is confirmation of your order. Your club ticket(s) and...

Welcome to the Club new to Clios myself a year ago, when I noticed this small French car that could make 170BHP , and only cost £550 (Phase 1) Went for it, have spent about 1500 with new AD08r's all round, rear half cage (Welded bodywork mount plates) and top spec bucket seats amongst the cost...

Maybe travel down night before- a few cheap hotels about. Be exciting for the kids

When cleaned up the silvers do look good... in a photo Real life you can see where all the paint has faded and chipped Some stickers sorts that..... my Phase 1 has a lot of stickers . Ha! still great fun tho

would the power steering failing take out belts?

Wonder what happens if the PAS fails Had a Punto where loosing PAS was a common problem, just went really heavy all of a sudden Imagine that going Ton up on a track approaching a bend !!!

makes a mess tho...

thanks for the replies- wont bother then... not much into "the look" tbh

Thread resurection: Anyone know if these actually help cooling the engine at high speed/ track days, or are they just an appearance thing My PAS fluid boiled over on the last track day, wondered if these would help?

looks really nice- don't fancy the cost tbh
