I'd forgotten why I'd gotten my Pro-speed exhaust, windows down today made me realise just why I got it! So much better sounding than the standard exhaust, and not chavvy sounding OTT either. :hail: to Charlie, Simon, et al @ Pro-speed.
I don't know about the off the shelf exhausts, depends really on what you want. I'm sure someone with a similar Clio to you should be able to give you a good heads up, or pics of what they look like on their current or previous clios.
Maybe some of the lads up Glasgow way can point you in the...
You are right...its just a standard windscreen...the ones on the 172 and 182 are heat reflective so weight a little bit more (I'm unsure of figures for the difference).
It won't make too much of a difference really...its the whole package where the weight loss is...
I got the packs of 100ml stuff for xmas...just wash and reuse those when empty, and dip a paintbrush in for the tyres...just don't put too much in there in case little bits accumulate when you are dabbing the brush.
Mine had driver's side leaking rear shock. Was £38 each IIRC for the dampers from Cliospares (Genuine Brand New Dampers), then got a mate to fit them.
Cliospares in based on outskirts of Wolverhampton, http://www.fourashesrenault.co.uk/ they get them from Renault with a discount, but once...
Insurance won't allow RS models...you can have a dynamic drive in one! The best you'll get would be 3 litre V6 Laguna...or Megane CC with 2.0T lump in it.
I did this up in Weston Park on Staffordshire/Shropshire Border last year...RS models on show...but you couldn't drive them. :(
Kully...just spotted the pics now, and I didn't notice...but Mandy did!!!
She's too bloody observant! ;)
Looks V.nice...much better...might even look like standard soon! :quiet:
Was going from Brum to Solihull...had to stop for a couple of mins to use the facilities. Had someone on the phone...so wasn't looking at the 'scenery' Sorry mate..if you'd grabbed my attention, I might have realised...but was running late because of traffic...bloody typical!!!!
I had similar with mine. They upped the premium by £20ish even though I had an extra years no claims!
Thats why they say in the ads that it doesn't affect your no claims! It doesn't...just your premiums...the sly gits!
If the insurance want to write it off...remove ;) the blanking plates on the front bumper, I'd be interested...make a few quid out of your loss! :quiet:
If the chassis is buggered, then they'll prob write it off...they did it to Chris's Cup, and that was hit by a glass fibre bonnet that came...
I think that the £430 was with a percentage off...don't know whether it was the 30% or not...you're expecting something for £430 with another 30% off!!!! If only!!! It will be there or thereabouts at £430 for the pair with subframes...don't be asking miracles now! ;)
Colin, I know its a fair drive down...but you could sample the seats first hand if you went to the factory...or try to source somewhere nearby and see what you think!
Here is the reply I've had via email...
"Thank you for your e-mail. If you could get 5 sets of seats and subframes together, we would be happy to do these at 30% off the retail prices.
If you could give me an idea of what everyone is after, along with the trim specifications and i'll then...
I am currently in work...and can't check my personal email from here (no web mail allowed!) So will check when I get home...
Don't expect it to be done till after 6...as have to travel best part of 40 miles to get home!!!
I've sent a mail across...see what comes back. Might even pop in there...see if the face to face approach works! But as I've said before...people would need to factor in courier service to get the seats to their homes...or even...arrange a meet in Telford, and then go to the factory for those...
Are we gonna include personalisations in this as well???
Just asking as they were gonna do us different colours, stitching options as part of the deal. I was gonna get my name done in it, even though it would make my seat unsellable! :dead:
Just so I can take it to the guys there and see...
