    Another hot day, another steering wheel destroyed

    Yep I had a Dynamique before, pretty much the same apart from the thumb grips.

    Another hot day, another steering wheel destroyed

    Only 28c or so, considering these things are sold in France and other European countries where temperatures can be considerably higher than here, I would have expected this to have been a non-issue!

    Another hot day, another steering wheel destroyed

    My so-far so-good wonderful Clio Cup has now seen 2.5 years service (registered Dec 23rd 2003) and covered a fairly easy going 24,000 miles. Everything was fine when I set off for the beach this morning etc etc etc, return to the car (thankfully mostly in the shade) and everything is still fine...

    Is this a good cup deal?

    Depends really, mine is on 24k, December 23rd 2003 so pretty much identical. I've spent a fair bit recently at 24k, so make sure yours has the same... - 24k service, looking at £150-£250 depending on where you get it done, I had front pads just changed too, worth checking - All 4 tyres at...

    Trophy photoshoot

    Stickers? I can only see the original security one in the window, nice to have it completely standard as it was direct from Dieppe imo.

    A nice souvenir press release to print and save with your new car :) http://www.press.renault.co.uk/releases/arc_2004/080704-a-ren.htm

    Trophy photoshoot

    Stunning shots, love the side profile one. Ever run into trouble having different spaced plates front and rear?

    182 Petrol Blue....... what do u think

    Yup, 9 Petrol Blue confirmed by Renault, can't remember the Liquid Yellow number, 34 rings a bell..?

    couple of cup questions!

    If the garage uses approved parts then they will have everything to hand, you don't need to go direct to Renault to get the parts as this would probably cost you a fortune (especially oil!) Is it a 172 Cup? The majority will be out of warranty by Christmas anyway, only a few sold in 2004.

    182 Petrol Blue....... what do u think

    One in the club I think, has some non-standard wheels. Very very few of these about, only 9 ever sold compared to 34 for the other I.D colour (Liquid Yellow). They look gorgeous imo, only ever seen one in the metal.

    DTM Practice @ Brands

    Nice pics, especially like the pit-area shots.

    couple of cup questions!

    ^^^ It's never that complicated regardless of what a dealership may tell you. I know plenty of people who get their car serviced at non-Renault garages who have then taken their cars in for warranty work with no hassle. The OFT went to great lengths to make things cheaper and easier as far as...

    Sega Dreamcasts...

    Plenty still about and easy to get hold of, Ebay / local indie game stores / Gamestation etc have plentiful stock. I've bought about 25 games in the past year, only game I haven't managed to find under a tenner is Rez, one day though! Having said that the home-brew scene is fantastic and...

    couple of cup questions!

    As above, so spare wheel but two cans of tyre foam. And two key fobs, make sure you get both as a replacement is very expensive. You don't need to have your Cup serviced at a Renault franchise dealership to keep your warranty valid, any decent service centre/garage that uses approved parts...

    Sega Dreamcasts...

    Hell no. Best disc-based console ever created. Still have mine and play on it a lot, including the fishing road, gun and everything else! Been playing Bangai-o recently, incredible game. Just an amazing amount of outstanding games on it, Soul Calibur, Virtua Tennis, Skies of Arcadia, F355...

    K800i released O2

    I got a W810i today, searched for the 512mb card for ages then realised it was already in the phone! Good phone but usless software with it, keeps locking up on my PC.

    Saner's sheep in super-size A2, think this one will fill some dead space on the walls at work...

    Nik's Trophy, on my wall

    To satisfy those who have requested: This is the original uncompressed 2mb file straight from the camera, not actually that great until you've had a play around with it... http://chrisharrison.smugmug.com/photos/78572442-O.jpg This is the file sent to Photobox, it looks so much better...

    Nik's Trophy, on my wall

    This pic is a bit dark as I didn't want to use flash, but I will get a better one when its up on the wall... Taken from this (and added a border...) Love it, quality is incredible considering I have a 5mp camera and that shot was taken from 50 metres or so away, no pixelation or...

    Guess who's bought a Williams 2!

    Just thinking that, I've been keeping an eye out for a Valver for 6 months and nothing has come up within 30 miles. If I ever found one it would be the only one in the county I think!

    Think I need a better camera, help!

    As I'm sure you know getting a good Macro shot is just about spending hours waiting, moving around and trying your best not to move to much (or hoping that whatever bug it is doesn't move too much!), the only reason I have 30 or so good shots is because I have another 500 that were awful. I'm...

    Think I need a better camera, help!

    Thanks for the advice all. Some interesting things to think about. Got published for the first time today (sort of!), well chuffed even though it's small etc. This pic http://chrisharrison.smugmug.com/photos/77486235-L.jpg Is now here...

    Nintendo DS Lite Packages

    They sold 35,000 Lite's at the weekend and oddly enough the original DS sales didn't even slow down at all either. Quite fancy upgrading but can't really justify it, money better spent on New Mario I think.

    flyered....

    I've flyered 3 Cups now on my travels in Wiltshire and have filled in my forum name on each, no reponse that I know of yet though!. Nearly ran out now though, had to resist at Castle Combe last week as there were 7 non-ClioSport 172/182s and I only have 4 flyers left! Couldn't choose which to do...

    In fairness I posted a pic of about 20 of the things and it hardly got any votes! And that was down to everyone here, so no blaming admin ;)

    Looking great. I've just ordered an A2 poster print made of your car Saner (along with several others, Photobox have a deal on so I got loads), hopefully it will look fantastic, this is the pic I used...
