Seen both of these a lot along the a2, (I nearly bought the Monaco a few years back)
Last sighting was last night round 6ish at Oare about 2 mins apart
Never been arrested, been pulled over for some proper stupid reasons though (not always my stupidity either).
Treat them with respect and they're generally alright.
as for current list of tugs.
1. Driving stolen red ford fiesta (was actually MY OWN white Rover Metro)
2. Driving with fog lights...
that makes sense, biggest contributor to the low mileage is the fact its been parked for nearly 4 years (last tax disc ran out oct 2010)
Just had a quote from Renault Wolverhampton on a new pulley.
Feels like im throwing money at a car I'm about to sell. :cry:
It's been the 3rd car for a while, I bought it for abit of fun, then life got in the way, mortgage etc. plus it needed a few bits for MOT, so it kinda go forgotten about until now.
Only had it back on the road for around a month, but wanted the belts done for piece of mind. Plus it'll sell...
the car is on 49,000, the belts were last changed at 38k, but the car has been sat for 3 years (in my ownership) the main reason for the belt change was due to them not being used for so long, and a leaking cam seal getting oil on the belts.
oil and filters were changed 3 months back.
new bolts...
Hi Guys,
I'm hoping one of the engine guru's can give me a little advice.
Car is currently in bits as it's midway through a belt change in my garage. (don't worry, I have ALL of the proper Renault tools)
I've got belts, camshaft caps, tensioners, idlers and cam seals, basically everything...
something like this?

sounds like it could be an earth strap.
the common culprit is the gearbox one, accessed through the passenger side wheel arch.
Renault raped me £200 to diagnose / solve that one, for what was essentially a £15 bit of cable :(
wanted something small and unassuming that went well.
to the mass populous, its a shitty 1.2 clio, so they have no issues pulling out on you on the m/way, not realising your kissing 100mph (or more)
to those in the know, tis a proper car.
just a click from the starter solenoid.
but the battery was a known fault.
Between me and wife we have 3 cars, so the Clio was sat for a few days as the ZR is better on fuel.
She killed the battery in her 106 that she uses for work (self employed), so I switched them over to keep her moving.
