So I got my mits on a das eventually but I need advice on what pads and polish I should start with. The car is black gold and a bit swirly and scratched. I'm not expecting to get it perfect, just do away with the swirls. I've read the big guide from detailing world but that's pretty old now so...
Mines sat on 38 at the mo. 16 mile commute, max speed 40 and lots of queuing to work. Reverse trip at 4.30am so er, yeah a bit different! I dunno what's happened recently, fit the first two years of ownership I couldn't get over 35mpg, even in a run. I've probably lost 50bhp?
Project thread done in one ?. Great write up and the car looks good. Very subtle mods that most probably wouldn't notice at first glance. I've noticed there's plenty of the corsa recaros on ebay and it's interesting to hear your opinion of them over the Renault ones. I wonder if they would fit...
So Leon and megane off the wanted list now then, what's next?
Just keep the clio. You love the thing, otherwise it would have gone long ago. You already have a family bus so why the need for a bigger car? I think the problem is you've usually changed car quickly but haven't wanted to this time...
Thanks, I've had a measure round it today and the drivers side rear is 10mm lower than the passenger. The front doesn't look too bad to me actually, although I think the camber needs looking at and it could do with spacers on. I'll address the height next weekend as busy today.
ARB bushes are...
Oh that one again. Who looked at that, @Cerrone ? Apparently the seller is a complete c**k womble. Don't be thinking of making a lower offer, he don't play ball.
Yeah the back looks ok but the front is probably a bit low. Maybe.
As for spacers, well we've been there before and it was'nt a pleasant experience. I have been thinking it could do with some though.
In my usuaul tardy fashion heres the rest of that last update!
So after a bank holiday Monday that somehow ended up as a bit of a piss up with 2 neighbours on the front lawn what better way to start Tuesday than a 2.5 hour drive at 5am? I had booked the car in with @bloke to have the...
GLWS @Tony Robinson. Hopefully it's new owner will find their way here and not to the other place. ?

I think it's fair to say that most clio sport owners on a clio sport owners forum know what their car is worth and what to expect from their insurance company should the worse happen. Best thing to do if your clio is written off is buy it back and sell as parts. We buy any car have not I g to do...
U clamp and pipe connector I was referring to. Seems to me you're sourcing parts from the worse place possible and expecting Renault to stock obscure parts for a long out of production car.
