I once fitted a "Sunstrip" to my first car, it lasted about two weeks.

Wheels are too big, and the same goes for that RPG you have dangling below the rear bumper. It must handle like a barge! Not my thing i'm afraid.

Oh dear oh dear. Just think what you could have bought for all that money you've spent.

£698 to change a strut? I had a leaking strut, it cost less than £100 to change!

IIRC the rattle is caused by crappy welding on the back box? Sure someone can be more specific though....

What brought you to that delightful part of Swansea then? And yes I did hear the exhaust before I saw the car!

The CUP was me, as I work in the Police Station! I actually looked out of my office window as you pulled into the side road ;)

Followed me for a while on the way home from work, from Cockett to the Swansea Valley junction of the M4. ClioSport sticker in rear window and private plate H80 HB or something to that effect. Twas me in the 172 Cup ;)

Well finally got around to it...bought myself an '03 Clio 172 Cup today :D . I've got one question to ask as i'm a complete novice to the Renault since i've owned Fords all my driving life. The car came with a poor quality cone filter which I want to remove and put back to standard. I don't want...
