Best advice yet, to be honest mate you will probaly save yourself the hastle of parting with the extra 12-1400 to buy a "minter" as it were...
I bought mine for £3,800 as i said but i had to get the cambelt done which cost me £550:rolleyes:
Not atall mate you should get a quick response, alot of good lads and gals on here with good advice.
Right as its an older car the first things to check are the obvious ones>>>
1.Service History > Check its been serviced reguarly this is the pit fall of renault's if there neglected through...
I have to say i was a little sceptical to the fact it carries nearly an extra 295kg's thats like carying an extra 2-3 people on board all the time against the clio 172.
Thats what amazes me as to how it can move all that weight so quickly, i think this is an open book, id have to see it on an...
Good comment mate, im not here to start arguing over whats faster and whats not im just speaking of personal opinion as is everyone else (and i respect that)
Im just speaking from personal experience, ive binned a few BMW's and Audi's i just never said which (because as we all know half of...
Id introduce another colour as said above, perhaps Yellow? I always think going with two colours makes a car, then get some samco hoses to match, lovley!
Did you wire brush the callipers to get the excess rust off?

I suppose depndant on how you look at it, it can either be a good thing or a bad thing!
As per above, if the appropriate receipts are present (ie all work done) Then why not, a brand new engine? It should run with no problems for plenty of miles to come.
Maybe a high mileage mate, but thats not to say you wont get a well serviced looked after one for that money, mines is a 2001 "y" plate with 46k, got her for 3.8k (needed cambelt)
Whatever pal all im saying is im not going to be subject to scrutinisation from someone doesnt even own a 172. The 172 is fast and it is faster than a few cars going. But i dont remember saying its the fastest car in the world.
IM not making it out somthing its not, every comment i make is my...
You have to forgive me for not agreeing to what your saying for the pure and simple reason that you dont actually own a 172 clio.
You honestly think a 2.5 TDI A4 could beat a 172 mid range? Jog on!!!
Ive fucked so many im thinking about putting a "bye bye TDI" sticker on my car...
Please...
Id go for the fabia mate, easily re-mapped for 200bhp and itll still give you well over 35mpg!
Failing that Seat FR of some sort the TDI's have proved time and time again.
Or if your feeling flush, Astra 888, 240bhp :D
Do you own a 172? Your very half empty mate, they do say its 5% the car and 95% the driver, ive shown many a Audi, Bmw driver what renaultsports are all about.
