Just thought it'd be nice to stay with the RS models. Did think about focus st as the wife likes em but it's all down to budget. It's pretty tight. TBH the kids will hardly be in it, just s reason to try a different car with the wife's approval. The cup was a practical second car!! That's what I...
Thinking about something with a bit more practicality to replace my 172 cup. My wife won't drive the cup(no bad thing) but we have 4 kids and a bigger 2nd car is on the cards. I've told her its gonna be something 'sporty' so a meg 225 fits the bill nicely but budget is tight. I need to ideally...
Injectors?? Mine had a failing injector that caused a really low, rough idle. Ok at temp and speed but really lumpy at traffic lights. Could it be the be vac leak is allowing more air into the mix and compensating for a lack fuel... Just a thought, probably something completely different!
Sounds like my symptoms when I had a failing injector. Had a misfire which was remedied with a new injector but the idle was dog rough still. It would feel like it was stalling at traffic stops but wouldn't actually stall. It wasn't tdc, map or coolant sensor as none of those made any difference...
Most parts are the same. Interior wise the cups are a bit different ie more basic. No half leather seats or alacantra door cards. No aircon or climate control either. Cups originally came with lower profile tyres as well 45 rather than 50's on the 172.
I got one of mine done at The Wheel Specialist in Avonmouth. Great service, great finish. That price is about right for a full refurb. See if I can find a pic for you.
there's plenty of RS Clio's in the area. I see 2 or 3 most days, just not sure they're on this forum. Be up for trying to arrange another one now the FB page is going strong might get a better response. Our rep last year was @stacky, not sure if he's still about.
only joshing. What I know about PC's isn't worth knowing. I know you can build ridiculously expensive ones, just £300 sounded like a small amount for something you can youtube edit on. But as I said I know very little.:D
got one of these 3 weeks ago. All legit and oe spec.

LOVE the rx, reminds of the the old gran turismo days. Bit stupid of the garage to book two viewings. I used to manage a bicycle shop and had it happen a couple of times where 2 people wanted the same bike, can get awkward if not handled properly... Did he give you a discount for messing you...
