Ah, so she's still about then. When did you see the car? I sold it almost a year ago now :(

Early 2014 is my guesstimate, it will be 5 door and 1.6 turbo. Not sure on the expected look and power of it though.

None of the RenaultSport range are certified for towing as far as I know.

Get yourself a few track days sorted, that will make the biggest improvement. Brakes are more than fine for fast road use, waste of time and money changing from 4 pot Brembos on a road going Clio.

Does seem a random choice, but my guess is that they've got a large portion of the UK market and need to 'spread their wings' so to speak. Or it could just be in order to avoid the Olympics...?

It has been announced that there will be no UK World Series by Renault in 2012. It is moving abroad to either Brazil or Russia... :S It will return to the UK in 2013.

The new Clio can be ordered with DRL's, but to be fair they look awful. Just seems the latest 'bandwagon' that every manufacturer wants to jump on, and, on the whole, they all look dire.

Yes you will have to tell them, it's an accident regardless of who was the driver.

It's three pics of a Cup...? For £500?

Might be worth checking these too.

Nice pics :) Even snook in one of my old car up there :approve:

My 182 ran 191bhp at a mobile RR with an exhaust and filter. I then had it cammed and live mapped and got it up to 182bhp on a proper RR... ;)

The immobiliser and central locking work on two separate systems. Just because it unlocks fine doesn't mean the key will be sending a signal to the immobiliser. Ideally trying the spare key would prove this, but as you don't have one you'll have to start checking things on the car. Decoder ring...

What's the symptoms?

Re: Big Manchester Meeting. Date: TBA. Will see if I can sort something as currently car less :(

You sure it's oil and not power steering fluid...?

Does ABS work on your car? What about the speed limiter?

People really shouldn't be suggesting that spring compressors aren't needed. Seasoned mechanics wont use them, sure, but DIY'ers I would always suggest using them for everyone's safety! If you've ever seen a spring let go you'll understand why.

Ignore it, the 200's are worlds apart from the Mk2's. Personally I've never driven a T, but the 200 is far superior to the 182 that I owned for nearly 4 years!

You don't 'need' compressors, but if you're a novice I'd certainly recommend using them! I've done numerous front springs and the compressors make it a little safer.

Was the decoder ring new that you fitted?

Could be as simple as needing a battery in the key. Do you have a second key to try?

Yours has the cup packs by the looks of things, so is FF.

No they wont without a dash conversion. They wont fit anyway as the mountings on the two models are different.

I use Aviva and they have the 200 option no problem.

Renault sell them I think.

Agreed - something Renault should really throw in free when you're buying their 'flagship' Clio :S

This is a strange thread. Good luck with it all the same, I'm sure it'll be a beast if/when it is completed :)

8 - 13bhp for £400 will never happen! People spend £1000's and only get ~10bhp gains.

You can't, you need to buy LHD headlights.
