Oh one other thing.. was I right in thinking that bump starting it would have been a bad idea at it still has the cat on it.

The car in the pic doesnt have the cup pack though does it.

PMSL ! fair enuff.. Actually that was the weird thing, didnt have anything but the interior light on, starter motor was just ticking.. as soon as the guy connected the power pack all the interior lights went really bright and the car started first time.. so ye I guess it was the battery.

Think this has gone on long enough. We all do stupid things in life, its whether you learn from them or not.

That my car has failed on me.. its wasnt a great day on the whole to be honest. Mate phones me to say he is splitting up with his wife so can he crash at mine tonight.. I go through and pick him up .. drive back (20 minute drive) and park up. Go to start the car about 30 minutes later...

Yep your deffo wrong. lol

I dont get knocking on de-celeration, i get bangs on hard acceleration when the wheels spin..

Dont be afraid of imports... no clios are built in the UK so they are all imports, its whether you buy it from a dealer (who fits alarm, etches windows) or not. I have an import and im paying £400/year fully comp, im 26. If you were going for the car above just be sure to do the usual...

Plus all you need to ask yourself is which one would you rather own ;)

The 182 wheels are much nicer than either the mk1 172 or mk2 172 and im liking them even more than the Cup wheels now.

No probs... Ye k-tec do a cheaper front splitter than the renault one. The renault one is just plastic whereas the K-tec one is full carbon fibre, so its a win-win situation. http://www.k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=977Clicky me ! to check out the splitter Ive seen the splitter...

In my opinion the cup spoiler and splitter really suits the 172/182, so yes ! If you want a harder ride but better handling, get the suspension. The choice is yours.

Get a decent aftermarket set of springs/dampers. You can buy the Cup spoiler and splitter seperatly. The front splitter is not colour coded. The rear spoiler is about £160 + £20 for the brake light (yes you need a new one!) and the front splitter is about £120, but your better of getting the...

old, a lot, and cheap ;)

Its handy to check, but can easily be fooled by parking on a hill etc. If it says you need oil, always re-check using the dipstick on level ground before putting the oil in.

Congrats to the police for actually bothering to show up..

Ive had it as low as 10mpg (dont ask) and as high as 45ish MPG. I do a lot of short trips, so my average MPG is about 26-7mpg. On motorways that jumps up to the mid 30s

Bumpy road... nah you dont get any of them in the UK ...

I found something weird by pressing number 1 and 3 on the standard headunit in a 172 at the same time.

Ahhh, good old Renault Edinburgh.. take my car there all the time, quite often get their 1.2 courtesy cars lol.. Last time I got one it was skanking... covered in mud inside and out.. was gonna was it for them and send them the bill lol I couldnt give a sh*t what courtesy car I get TBH...

Not very often, used to when I first got it.. but im getting old now (26) so I tend to granny shift now.
