​I assume she was the better driver?

EDIT: no mention of factory fitted - "7 What are the new elements to the MOT rest? For Class 4, 5 and 7 vehicles:  Headlamp levelling and cleaning devices when fitted for HID or LED headlamps" http://www.dft.gov.uk/vosa/repository/CHANGES TO THE MOT TEST EFFECTIVE FROM 20 MARCH 2013.pdf

Garage no.1 is a Renaultsport specialist, so they certainly know. Any other garage would surely see as soon as they turn the lights on?

I see that he's a tester, but two other garages (one very well known to the Scotlanders on this site, and the other being money grabbing bar stewards) have no issues with washers being removed. ​Iirc the wording is that they "must work if fitted". So not having them fitted saw mine pass...

Nope, two garages (including the Kwikfit that tested it - took a chance there!) told me that they must work "if fitted". Mine are currently off the car and blanked off with electrical tape, passed MOT yesterday with no problem

No idea, but it is a bloody nice 993 GT2 along those lines of those I saw at Le Mans a few years back

Not bad, prefer the 'proper' one though:

Just imagine what would happen if he had a "Powered by fairydust" sticker!?!?! :eek:

What's the cure time for Tiger Seal in sh*tty British weather? 24hrs? I bet I'd move the wee buggers when I put masking tape on to hold them in place :)

Pretty sure I can work out where that is, might as well pop round for a visit

Re: SUPER 1600 REPLICA based on 172, CLIO WILLIAMS Tribute, CLIO WILLIAMS IV (Austra This thread give me a semi. I'd love to have the knowhow/cash to rock the S1600 look

Got the 182 through it's MOT with only an advisor for wear on one tyre (which I already knew about) - get in! EDIT: this includes having the light washers deleted and currently blanked with electrical tape!

Ditto that :( Good luck!

I was up Torridon at the same time for some mountainbiking. We were camping/vanning....... it was grim! Awesome area though, did wish I had the Clio on the way up/down!

The 182's mine. There was a silver PH2 kicking around as well, didn't clock the reg though

FFS, I really should know that by now :rolleyes: IMG_6682 by mark_p2511, on Flickr Yeah it was in a pretty bad way, the state of the fiberglass doors would cause uproar on the group-buy thread ;)

Camera's just out of the oven to dry off :) Will get mine up shortly - didn't get the flames from the Porsche though so you win!

Not wanting to hijack the thread, but........... MOTing with a sensor (engine) warning light on? Should still pass with that assuming emissions aren't effected?

​bhp increase

This thread is confusing, I was always under the impression that the ideal track Clio was the one with two CBR engines in the back?! ​;)

Track car eh..... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Renault-Clio-172-Road-Track-Car-/251272662158?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item3a81048c8e perhaps? Joe's already nailed it really, 172 and save a load of money for repairs/upgrades/fuel/tyres

Bumper off (for the first time ever), new arch spray guard on and headlight washers off to get it through it's MOT!

At a guess, he was still having a bit of a race with the black car you briefly see in the background (or possibly the other yellow one you see off on the other side)

at smaller events the marshalling/1st aid can be horribly inadequate for a big incident. There's a really horrible video of a Lambo (iirc) crashing and igniting recently too, takes an age for anything to happen :(

OP, you shot your bolt too early! It should be #1 - "182 with private plate on Ansty road was it you? Nice car, I'm a Happy Hardcore fan too!" #2 - "yeh blud that wz me. Str8 blazin' up teh road. wurd" #3 - "well cum stain, you were driving like a....." etc, etc. Much more fun that way ;)

Annoyingly I reckon it's possible to get better photo's when the track's running in reverse. Unless you have a huge lens that is

Is that American Stig, or has he let him go a bit since the last series? ​;)

but what if it had the pops 'n' sparkles remap??

I did indeed, just got it delivered today. Found a lad trying to sell one for way too much on ebay and manged to get him down a bit. Think he might have a drivers side one (I've got the passenger side) if you want his contact details?
