Rory, There are companies which will do a three day intensive course for around £600 inc CBT and practical test. Essentialy you would need to have your theory test completed before the course, then the course would consist of a CBT on day 1 using a 125 geared motorcycle, then I believe 2-3 days...

Igster, I would be interested to see what the resolution is to this issue. I have this issue also, when I took the car back to the dealers they said they could not find a fault. Please let me know how you get on. Regards Rich :)

Hi Rob, I am sorry to hear about the damage, always very frustrating. I can not really comment about the rear quatre, I would imagine as long as its a good bodyshop it should look like new. As for the Alloy they can do a very good job of colour matching as long as its done right. The best...

Hi, I followed a silver 172 on the M4 going towards Oxford this evening, just curious if it is anyone on here, the numberplate was personal and ended in STU! I was in the Silver 182 :) Rich :)

Craig, As said it would depend on your budget. Some people on here seem to rate the focal range of components. I use some MB Quart referance and love them. MY best advice would be to go to a local In car audio dealer and have a talk with them. (preferably not Halfords) I would say use some...

Hi All, I have the MB Quart Referance speakers in my 182 and with an amp they sound amazing. Really crisp and sharp. Would highly recommend them. I paid £200 for my front components. Well worth the money in my opinion. Regards Rich :)

Hi All, As long as no one minds me posting a non car related link, its http://www.hondahornet.co.uk. Out of interest what year is the bike and any mods? Rich

HI Cocamainy I have a 2004 Hornet 600 and I am with MC Edwards I am 22 and pay 280 tpf&T my best advice would be to shop around as always. Also try CIA and The PolicyShop as well as Bike team. Get the Yellow Pages and have a look through. On A side note very good choice of bike I wouldnt swap...

HI All, I witnessed a strange thing today. Came back to my clio 182 unlocked it and drove off as normal. however when I got home and went to lock the car it beeped at me to say a door was open, I looked at both doors and noticed they were shut only to then find the bonnet had been released, I...

HI DanUK. I bought my Clio182 ff from Richard Sanders in Kettering and whilst they are pretty useless at warrenty work they were good for its 12K service they were also the cheapest! They were also the only dealer out of three that I called that stated they would use a 5w40 fully synthetic oil...

Thanks GR_172 Much appreciated I Did not fancy trying to get a dealer to troubleshoot it :( I will give your fix a go and see what happnes! And there was me thinking I was going crazy :o Rich :)

HI All, Here is a question for you all, I have just developed a high pitched whisle sound comming from the winsreen area between 60-80 mph, it sounds like wind noise and stops when I slow down below 40. Does anyone have any ideas of things to check? vents/windscreen seals? Any helpful...

Hi All, I had the update list tuner in my 182 2005 clio, I have one of the InCarTec Adaptors with my Alpine Head Unit. I sourced mine through a local car audio dealer in Milton Keynes. They are not cheap at around about £100. I have to admit though it works really well! Rich :)

HI All. I was wondering why my steering wheel colum's trim was rattling and when I had a look i noticed that the screws are missing! I am guessing that when I had my ice installed the shop didnt put the screws back in, does anyone know where I can get hold of some? they are the long ones that...

Hi All, I was told the points are declared for 5 years due to the rehabilitation of offenders act (Spelling?) My mate did try to explain properly but I fell asleep half way through lol Rich :)

Hi All, I had the updated tuner from Renault in my 2005 clio 182. Ive used the InCarTech stalk adaptor for my aftermarket Alpine head unit without issue. It's fully functional and quick to respond to button pushes. I am sure there is links somewhere to internet sites selling the adaptors...

xzibit I used these people in january when I kerbed my 182 alloy. The guy did a fantastic job and you really can not tell that it has been refurbished. The colour match is spot on! Cost me £65 per wheel. I did try chips away but they couldnt even be bothered to call me back! Rich :)

HI All, After watching the lack of Professionalismof the people who fitted mine. I would say have a bash youself it really is not hard, There is a guide on the internet from someone! Out of interest I did notcie the people who did mine did not suport the hub and were moving the lower...

HI Obi. Ive got a full fat clio 182 and have just fitted the proline springs. I am well impressed, as they are designed to be used with origional dampers. There is a member on here that has the whiteline anti roll bars, I dont know how much they cost though :( Rich :)

I will get some pics posted tomorrow. I still have a squeek from the drivers suspension when i go over a bump, The ppl that fitted the springs didnt notice anything out of the ordanary. I am tempted to get some powerflex buses in the near future? I still need to ge the tracking done, was prob...

I will post pics tomorrow in the light, The ride is perfect It is slightly harder but nothing drastic. I did notice it going over sleeping policeman. I have not had a chance to really test them cos they have not bedded in yet. The car does seem to respond better when pushed harder. would be...

Oops yeah realised after I had posted not paying attention, sorry :(

Hi All, I had my Eibach prolines fitted today and am very impressed! The car seems more planted on the road and doesnt roll as much through the corners. I have to say though I was not impressed at the people who fitted them, supposed professional garage using two trolly jacks no axle stands and...

HI All, My 182 clio is comming up for its 24K service. I am shocked at the range in prices. 240-280 from three different dealers. One dealer told me that they replace the fuel filter? and two of which told me that they use semi synthetic 10w40 oil, dont I remember reading that the 182 clio...

HI All, Someone parked thier very nice 02 Silver 172 next to my clio 182 in the Oracle Reading this evening, Just wondered if it was anyone on here? Rich :)

I have to admit I am impressed with Directline they seem to be the cheapest around! I got mine down to £601 with a £750 excess comprehensive 23 with 4 years NCB compared to churchills £874 and tesco's quote of £824. I am wondering why they are so cheap (Not complaining)
