I genuinely have a lump in my throat. My first holiday with my now wife was in that car, back in about 2005! It had 26,000 miles on it iirc. I paid £5,500 for it from the Renault dealer where I worked. It was on the forecourt for £6999.

You need to fix the car mate. You know that yeah? You don't just turn the light off and the problem goes away, this isn't Harry Potter.

I bought my Clio in 2008. I will never ever sell it. Ever.

If it was me, I'd contact Agency and explain the situation. They may offer to repair it at a reduced fee.

1. No. it's a private sale from a private individual. 2. You can but their contract was with the person that paid them the money so they're perfectly entitled to not help you. 3. Yes unfortunately.

Look up 'Arkonik' I recently got offered a job there but had to turn it down as it's just a bit too far away. (An hour each way assuming there's no traffic, realistically 90 minutes each way) They build some of the best trucks I've ever seen. Their attention to detail (and their workshops!)...

They're nothing like they used to be. The era of solidly built E46's and E39's are a distant memory to them now. The new 1/2/3/4 series' feel so cheap it's unreal. My dad had a 535d and when the lease was up for renewal, he drove a 2 coupe, a 3 touring and a 4 Gran Coupe and ended up getting a...

They look f**king horriffic. And the only front wheel drive BMW make. Ergo; they're s**t.

Was this in Filton/Patchway yesterday morning?? There can't be 2 driving around in Bristol surely?!

330's (petrol and diesel) were 5 speed pre facelift. Facelift's had 6 speed.

It's a sport not an M-Sport. (Pedantic I know, but true) Nice car though. The E46's have aged very well. Unlike the E9x shapes, they are starting to look very dated.

@lemonknobby1 does all mine.

The chances are I sold that when it was new. I was the 'Renault sport specialist' at our dealership in 2004-2008. And our dealerships primary reg was WRxxxxx A pointless fact for you there!

Is it an 04 car with a facelift front end or a facelift car with a private plate?

Still got my beast. Although it looks a bit different now. I'll get some new pics when the weather picks up and I use it this summer;

That is f**king p**n. Absolute ball aching p**n.

If they're not too bad, a quick going over with regular car polish will hide it for a week or so. Ideal if you're handing it back to a lease company etc.

@Magpiev6 ?!

Suncream goes through the lacquer, you will never remove it completely. I know this, I have two massive ones on the back wing of my wife's car! Lol A good machine polish followed with a good wax will hide it for 6 months though.

I'm probably the worst person you can discuss ceramic coatings with mate! Lol I'm an atheist when it comes to anyone mentioning it unfortunately.

Nobody will say "I told you so" If they do I'll ban them for 1 week. That's a shitter mate. But (and I appreciate how experienced these people are) the people telling you Renault paint is hard are wrong. The black on Renaultsport cars is soft as s**t, the slightest hint of dust and a cloth...

What's CCTV going to do if they've got balaclava's and guns?? If they want it, they're taking it.

They're fast, inconspicuous and will break for stupid money. Everything about it is what thief's dreams are made of.

Huh?!

Unless it was filthy, I wouldn't be washing it yet. The longer you leave that ceramic stuff to cure the better judging by the world of the internet.

I bought my first Clio (Ph1 172) in about 2004. And ever since then ive always had one in some shape or form.

f**k me sideways, that's horrific. f**k the car, the thing that scares me the most is your child. Me and my wife always put the kids in the car first, keep them out of the way whilst we're doing the packing the car thing. That could have ended much differently! I just mentioned it in the...

Never heard of him or the program, but having just watched that belvedere episode, I'll now be watching them all!

They are.

Car looks cool, steering wheel is f**king tragic though and needs to be thrown on a fire.
