Is your wife’s minge sore? You must have been in there for a good hour at least.

He’s 16 so he’ll be fine then. No padding needed, the little gobshite is the same size as me. 😂

Is the age restriction for passengers 16?

Plenty of wd40 (or something better like Injector-ex) on the underneath of the bolt. Don’t use an impact! If you can’t do it with a normal sized ratchet, get some heat on it. Again, from the underneath. They’re a complete prick to remove.

Well it was dark, and he just said “suck on this” and the next thing I know I’m waking up on the floor. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Mate if it wasn’t for @MarkCup last year I’d have been found face down on the floor somewhere at about 6am. @DaveDreads and his stupid bong.

Who’s camping and who’s premier Inn’ing?

I wish I was. But when I get back off holiday I’ve got 2 weeks of missed income to catch up on, as well as the £5K+ I’ve just spent on holiday. It isn’t going to leave me much time at all. I have just had a message off my mate I sold the Kangoo too, he’s said I can bring that if I want. Plus...

That’s going to be my back up if my hydraulic idea doesn’t work. I’ve actually got an old table made of really nice box section ready to sacrifice. 😂

That was my first thought but it’s now created a weak point on the box and I’m not confident in it at all.

The 172 clutch cable is too long. The 16v cable is too short. So I’ve used a 172 cable but packed the end of it out with a spacer. That spacer has caused the pivot point to move meaning it’s putting stress where it shouldn’t. Basically, fitting a gripper diff to my car was the worst thing I ever...

No, the gearbox casing is flexing. And I’m pretty sure you’ll all punch me repeatedly if it explodes and dumps oil all over the place. Not a great scenario for a moderator of the worlds finest automotive gathering.

Hydraulic clutch conversion. I have all the parts but it’s never been done on a Mk1 with a 172 box as far as I can see. I’m also on holiday for the next 10 days.

Highly unlikely my car will be ready for this. So I’ve either got to buy something to make use of my track ticket and I can also use to enjoy the roads on the way there (risky with an unknown car) or sell the track time and just drive up in the truck.

Rear brakes and rear shocks will get rid of 4 of them and the parts are cheap. (Assuming you have a clio?) I’d be more inclined to see what the oil leak is. If it’s not bad or it’s just a build up of old oil, take all the under trays off and clean it all up. Obviously if it’s bad and leaking...

Mick at Diamond Motors Steve and Andy at Birchdown Both top notch.

Locking wheel nuts, window etchings and alarms were all done by CAT for ‘genuine’ Uk registered cars iirc. All models had the immobiliser. Final answer Dave, but im only 99% sure not 100.

I can’t think of many sub £5k 5 seat hatchbacks that can do what that just did. Such awesome little cars.

Let me know a price when you get back from your trip away. I’m absolutely skint at the moment but I’m hoping my mate will sell a couple of my cars whilst I’m away. And I’ve always wanted one of these.

As above, I used to sell Renault 172’s when they were new and for every English registered one there was at least one import. They were very common. Nothing to worry about at all.

I can’t answer your question but that sounds like a great idea.

I use a Ctek on my car. I only use the car maybe 5 or 6 times a year and 3-ish years on, battery is still perfect.

Sounds a bit pants, no? Unless it’s the quality of the video. What manifolds has it got on it? If it’s the standard crap it will be strangling the V8 noise. Get some good quality headers on there and it will sound biblical.

I like Peugeots styling department. They do good things. The interiors and engines are pony though.

Looks nothing like a Renault 5. It’s f**king massive. Why does it need 22 inch wheels?? New cars really can just f**k off now. I can’t think of a new car that I’d actually want to own??

Your other option is to slide a very thin pick/flat blade screwdriver in between the pin and the plastic housing of the plug. This then pushes the pins closer together. Doing that as well as giving them a good clean up has worked for me on several clios.

AW Motorworks, every time.

Wow, that’s cool as hell. Must be super super rare too?? I worked for Renault for 7/8 years during this time and never even heard of it.

@MarkCup i need to see the video. I feel like a kid that’s had coal for Christmas with everyone else tucking in to a Satsuma.
