Zerofill...if only Gary Glitter had used it! PMSL!

If its from Lookers in the Manchester area...tread carefully. I bought my Cup from the one in Stockport, and I'll never go to that one or the one in Altrincham again...ever!!!! Just my ten penneth! :quiet:

I never ever thought you would ever have dust in your garage! ;) Oh, and Hi! :clap:

He's travelled some distance then for an MG! :o Don't want to know where he/she's from, just wonder how much your place will want for it?

I don't recognise the reg from any W.Mids meets....hmmmm?

Was it on a private plate? If so, I know the lad...but he ain't on here!

Check your rear discs/pads are decent. If the performance is poor, it could be for that reason!

Dent meet would be after Xmas though, I've already contacted someone, price TBC...but would be in the beginning of 2009...

Sod you all then! No mention of the W.Mids in this then? :( (I'll remember you next time something's organised!) :rasp:

Great pics Ste...just try not to bring half the meet home with you next time! pmsl! Thanks to all who came and made it a great meet, sorry couldn't do Nando's (still pissed about that!) but all in all a good meet with some good people, shame about the hilter in race control! :dead:

The cable has just slipped, do a search as I'm sure its happened hundreds of times for people before.

Don't get a 172Cup...as the insurance will nail you for the learner. My other half couldn't get insured on the Cup because she only had a provisional license, all is fine now she's passed, but the 172 will only be silly when its being 'used'! General usage it will be fine. :)

Take your car...its all you need. You only need V5 for tax!

Has anyone used it? I've got the Cup, and Mandy's looking at a 1.2...on Multicar with Admiral we've been quoted £970...whereas I'm with LV (33 5yrs NCB) and they want £650 and Mandy has priced up for herself with Swinton £500 (37, no NCB) does anyone else think that this isn't bad?

You're both correct, but only at the same time! :rasp: Lights on, when spraying windscreen!

Welcome to CS fella :)

The washer jets leaking is a common fault with them. They cost about £10 each from Renault direct. I've not replaced them as my car doesn't come with the hoses, but it should be reasonably simple...sure someone else can confirm. :)

TDC sensor...look at the link. http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showt...&highlight=tdc

Contisport Contacts, the firmer sidewalls are much better and more confidence inspiring than cheaper tyres! I've also tried P-Zero Neros and the Contis blew them out of the water on my Cup!

Mine also makes this noise, but the rack itself looks fine. When I changed the front pads a wee while ago, the noise stopped for a few days, then came back, but it only happens when trying to maneouvre at v.low speeds. (There's no noise at all over 5mph!)

Driving 'Your Mum's' 172 as an additional driver, but you are the main driver. They'd suss if your 40 or 50 Year old parent suddenly wanted tinted windows, lowering kit, etc...they ain't stupid!

They're about £25 per side IIRC. Got mine from local motor factors. Then you just need to get them pressed in...any garage should be able to do that for you.

Use some brake cleaner, then wd40 it...mine wasn't perfect the next day but since then (touch wood) its been fine. :)

I would assume that it is in the same place for the PH1 as it is for the PH2. This is where it is on PH2, so look in the same place (its the same engine, just cable throttle on PH1 and fly by wire throttle on PH2. Remove the airbox, then look in the space, its on the left, just above the...

Have a look here http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=109201 Useful what a search can do guys! ;)

Re: privelege car insurance are s**te. Aren't the 15" and 16" alloys exactly the same on 172s and normal cars? If so, they are standard Renault items are they not (if they're specified as an option at time of ordering car?)

Follow this, you may just need to clean the TDC sensor rather than replace it. Remove the airbox, then look in the space, its on the left, just above the gearbox. See the thread below for pictures. I've had the same thing, I did what this thread suggested, cleaned it up, its had a couple of...

Re: strating problems Remove the airbox, then look in the space, its on the left, just above the gearbox. See the thread below for pictures. I've had the same thing, I did what this thread suggested, cleaned it up, its had a couple of little 'hiccups' since, but much better overall. You don't...

Welcome to the club :)

I would say Welcome...but you've been registered longer than a fair few of the 'regulars' on here. Welcome anyway! :)
