As long as this paint I bought is up to the job and doesn't melt they will be left alone. Llandow yeh I seriously need to look into a new mount. The exhaust place I took it too on,y remounted it with a brand new mount 2 months ago maybe and it's failed already. Not good.

I know. It's one of the best things I've done to the car. I drove the works van the other week which has the same size wheel as the Clio and it was ridiculous. How I drove round like that for 3 years I'll never know lol.

Lol. Careful, he's on here. Probably be on to defend himself in a minute lol. The wheel is still awesome btw. absolutely love it.

It's safe to say I was s**t scared lol. All good fun though lol.

I would like to point out that they were melting after someone else drove the car not me ;). I had no problems with the brakes all day, my friend however cooked them lol.

I like this.

The wheel refurb was just over £400 including 4 new tyres though. Think it was £50 a wheel for the actual refurb. Probably a little more now as it was nearly 2 years ago I ad it done. Well, I'm currently refurbishIng my old grab handles to sell on if your interested ;). If not I've just...

I know. They are coming off and being completely stripped of all paint this time then hopefully they might not melt lol.

That's about as good as I can get it to sit. Only just had a new mount as the last one failed within a year. Think it might be too heavy for the standard mount. May have to look into getting an uprated one. And I'm certainly not cutting the bumper

I hate my exhaust, although it does sound great. I know it gets some grief so I took a picture of it lol. I keep meaning to investigate getting a swap but haven't got round to it yet.

So its been a while since I updated my project thread. Well I haven't done anything to the car so no real need to until this week. Only two minor additions but gave me an excuse to give the car a much needed wash and take some photos with my DSLR as I hadn't taken any yet. Oh please excuse...

I bought a cheap wired one for mine and works for bulb mode. Has the lock switch

Thats a good price Mike for a plug change. I was quoted £200 from a specialist for a mini service (oil and filter change and general inspection) and spark plug change. I thought it was a little steep at the time.

A lot of people will say don't buy a 182 cup, it's considered as the runt of the litter lol. Get a FF 182. All the toys and both cup packs.Oh Oh, and welcome.

Never owned or even driven a "normal" 172 so couldn't tell you which is better. I love my Cup. I've no doubt I'd love a 172 as well. The factor of the colour and nicer wheels swung it for me in the end. I can live without the extra comforts.

Wonder what plugs they are going to put in. Was going to do it myself but at that price I might take them up on that. Just need to find a dealership I trust now lol.

Go and see it if it's local. Doesnt look to me like it's on coilovers. Looks pretty standard. Awful coloured wheels and butchered bumper for the exhaust, but easily fixed. Rubbish advert, pictures taken in the dark, bad spelling would put me off a little, but I'd still view the car and see...

Someone the other day posted the centre of his wheel that he fabricated with a Renault sport sticker. Looked pretty good. Edit, found it http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?622683-New-wheel-on-best-change-yet!&p=8404252#post8404252

One of the best mods I did to my car was change the steering wheel. Looks good

As I've already said Ron. It's a software problem. I took mine to apple and they basically said wait for an update. They know there's a problem should be sorted with the next update. Waste of time taking a trip to an apple shop unless your just passing anyway.

I have safari crashing quite regularly. Common problem if you do a quick google search. Apple seem to know about it apparently. Hopefully the next software update will cure it. Only been happening since I downloaded ios5 onto it.

A spirited drive somewhere and somewhere to stop take photos would probably be ideal. I'm probably going to be hanging about for a fair few hours so all idea appreciated :)

Full 12 month MOT, 12 months tax. Belts done and receipts to prove it wasnt done by a cowboy, wheels not scuffed and kurbed and I don't think 3k is too far off. Tha fact it's not sold and just sat there for 12 months would worry me though.

I have a little bit of a squeak on start up and my belts and dephaser were changed by a reputable specialist just over a year a go. Only squeaks now it's cold. Goes away as soon as the engine warms up.

Just in front of the clock. iPhone fits in that little gap pretty well.

Thanks. I had a few ideas this month but was really struggling tbh. This was the only one that turned out quite well. Could be a little sharper but that's more down to the light I had avalible in my flat.

If you use self tappers to hold it in place you don't need to take the shock out. To bolt them in its easier to take the shocks out.

Swan neck spanner and an Allen key to get the top mount undone. And lots of penetrating fluid and muscle.

Fair enough. I'd still be looking a a fiesta zs etc. seem to be very popular.
