Mine does it a bit when cold if I'm not gentle with the pedals, although I've put it down to the lumpy idle/acceleration all Clios have when cold.

Polishing paintwork has nothing to do with leaving holes along the side of your car, which will let in water, which will mean rust.

Are you serious? First of all, it'll look sh*t. Second, the bumper won't line up and there'll be clips along the side of the car which you'll need to take off. Which I'm pretty sure are bonded/screwed on so will leave a mess which means re-painting both full sides of the car.

I'm pretty sure the trip computer in my 200 is out by a bit aswell, mine is showing 24.5 mpg but it really doesn't seem to be using that much more fuel than my 172 did.

IMO, almost every part of it is awful. That front bumper doesn't fit worth a fook either. But as a fellow petrolhead I can't help but respect you for putting that much time and effort into it, and it must feel good to stand back and see it finally finished and running.

As above, get a Yozzasport. Sound lovely, very high quality, fit well.

Re: Are the 182 cruise controls part of the airbag section or part of the steering wh Part of the wheel.

Soft touch paint?

I reckon the Cup/Trophy will be regarded as "classics" more than the PH1, even though a lot of people on here prefer the PH1.

All Cup sidestrips look like that standard btw, lacquering them makes such a big difference.

F1s. Wolfrace and 17s sound awful.

Not in colour as such, but the 182 ones will have the white bits in the perforated bit of the alcantara, 172 seats don't.

OAFT

Says it all really.

Awaits the people who've never read it in years slating it... I bought it tonight, will have a read later on.

Hmmm, even overlooking the dodgy email carryon, the car is a bit strange. Is described as a cup but has leather and washers, but has cup headlights.

Assume you've already tried clio16valver.co.uk aswell?

I fail to see the point.

No, because they're sh*t, like ALL mobile repair companies. All of them.

All that megs endurance stuff does is sling down the side of your car when driving. Blackfire is what you want.

Love it. More lows for more flushness sounds good too.

Saw the thread title and knew it'd be another Scottish member! Welcome, tidy looking Leon you had there BTW.

Nasty, feel for you mate. As for advice, listen to Gally, no one else.

I like the standard wheels too, so there's at least two of us. Black could look pretty cool along with a black roof to match the rest of the bits.

Turn the auto headlights off? It's a sign from the car telling you the sunstrip looks sh*t tbh.

It can be done, just a bit awkward and you'll end up with a few skint knuckles. They just push backwards towards the car and they unclip.

At least you're old enough for places to quote, most places tell me to sod off on anything like a Megane until I'm 21. Stranger than that, nowhere seems to want to quote me on an EP3 Civic Type R until I'm 21, yet the 172 and 200 they have no problem with, when they're pretty much both as fast...

Still love this motor, just keeps getting better. Shame I couldn't make SMCS this year :(

Used to belong to a guy I know, he put the sticker on, then sold it for a Corsa VXR the plank.

Depending on how picky you are, you could get a decent bodyshop to do half the bumper, save you a bit of money. If you're going at the car with a machine polisher at any point though I wouldn't bother.
