Nope, not got one but I think I'll have to invest in one tomorrow... Cheers for the help. Still weird that I have a connector just hanging behind the dash, but nowhere to plug it in.

Anyone? I've checked the connectors in the front bumper and they're connected, also re-seated all the relays behind the dash and I can hear the relay click. Any help / pointers would be really appreciated :rasp:

I've just bought the Connects2 adapter with a Pioneer HU lead and it doesn't f'in work! The HU is only 18 months old so I know it can't be that. Checked all connections repeatedly but no luck :-( Sending it back ....

Completely agree - I've got a 2 year old TXP50GT30, and the picture quality for the price is only surpassed by its replacement models! It's EPICALLY good.

Hi all, as titled my front fogs aren't working on my 182. Only had the car a few days but wanted to test all the lights etc and noticed they werent coming on. I'm getting the light on the dash, and I've tested the fuse and all seems OK. What I have found though (which I think may be the...

Just .... just ... FACEPALM :headno:

Saw this on Ebay earlier : http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/151105826682 If I wasn't buying mine from Steve at R-Sports I'd have been tempted! Looks pretty mint and well maintained - plus ALL belts done and an RS192 exhaust. Wouldn't pay that price though ... prob £3700 if it's as good as it...

^^^^ ​This definitely!!! I bought a dog of a 172 a few years back as I didnt pay attention to things like this. It had budget brand tyres which were completely useless. Turned out the rest of the car had been maintained (or not) on a budget. I never skimp on maintenance / tyres and would be very...

Thanks for the suggestion - I'm having the Black Gold 182 with Recaros he's advertised. Put my name down before it even officially went up for sale! Can't wait to get hold of it :) It's not the Blue I always wanted, but I saw a Black Gold FF 182 with the cup packs and the paintwork with the...

Just sold my Fabia VRS to the first viewer yesterday, and for the price I wanted! Picking up my BG 182 from Steve at R-Sports when its ready :-)

Watched that a week or so ago ... Really enjoyed it in a bit of a geeky way :D

I'd be tempted, but its out of my budget! Plus I would have thought it's better to have one that's been used properly (but still looked after) rather than sat around. It'd be a bit of a shock to it's system :rasp:

Needs some work and has done 80k with no official service history for the last 5 years ... But nice colour :-)

.... but incredibly close to me. Really got to get my car cleaned and up for sale!!!

Yeah, I'm beginning to worry about it a bit - I'm looking to buy one once I've sold my current car and I'm beginning to panic that I might not be able to find a good one!

Yeah, my remapped Fabia VRS does the same when you actually work it out. Then again it's reading out 55mpg instead of the genuine 50 ;)

Yeah, I once took my 172 from the midlands to Picardy in France ... driving down there, around France, then back up I averaged 44mpg :-) Used to get high 30's every day with a mix of spirited and laid back driving. Often saw over 40 tbh, especially on motorway routes. Always loved that fact...

Did a quick bit of searching and it looks like my evil old black Clio actually ended up with a Cliosport member - Bambi. I did used to see it knocking around Coventry after I shopped it in at a local trader and wondered how the hell it was still on the road lol. So my old Monaco blue 172 went...

Yeah ... I think it's gonna be a 182... A Blue 182 with cup packs was the first RS Clio I ever drove - and I fell in love. Ended up compromising and getting a Monaco Blue 172 (which went to a forum member), then a year or two later the evil evil horrible black 172 I owned ... I could never quite...

Yeah, I'm kind of limited by budget - I'm hoping to get a decent price for my VRS then put max £800 towards my next car, so in theory with all being well I could have a budget of up to £4000-£4200. From what I can see I'm probably not going to get a good 197 for that sort of cash, but I'll keep...

Yeah, had a chat with a friend of a friend who's owned both (the 182 was yellow, lucky b#####d), and he preferred the 182. Basically said the 182 had a bit more shove and was cheaper to run, but the 197 is more fun to drive and screwed together better. Also looked at some 04/05 plate meganes...

Hi all, I'm putting my 04 Fabia VRS up for sale this weekend with a view to getting back into an RS Clio. Had two 172s previously, one was awesome, one was a dog. Would I be better off spending 3.5k on a nice 182, or spreading my finances a bit further and going for an early 197 at just over...

Mk2 Phase 2 all the way.

Cheers, when I'm all sorted I'll give him a shout. I'd like to keep the car for a good while, I reckon the RS Clios will become a cult car - the last of the n/a hot hatches :-)

Hi everyone, I've been a member (albeit probably not a very active one) since I had my first 172 back in 2004/5 ... and now I'm hopefully going to join the ranks of Renaultsport owners again! Quick story of my car history over the last 9 years ; I sold my awesome Monaco Blue 53 plate 172 to a...

Alpine SPG-13CS for the front and SPG-13C2 for the rear.

I'm selling my Clio so I'll have a set of Alpine SPG-13CS's and a set of SPG-13C2's for sale in the next two weeks. The general sale price of these two items totals about £160-£170 new, so if anyone's interested, please pm me to make me an offer.... otherwise I'll stick them in the for sale...

Just saw a mains powered machine polisher in my local Aldi and am tempted. Heard it can give a fantastic finish with less effort than doing it by hand.... and can you REALLY go wrong for £13? Saw it in the Coventry store on Radford road on my way home last night, they had a fair few left...

sounds like your MBR is buggered... try downloading easyBCD and see if it can pick up both installs... should be able to.

I think its a good price.... I just happen to work for Alpine, hence my bias on the forum towards Alpine :) .... and I get staff price... LOL
