Thanks Jay ill bare that in mind. Please remember to ask one of your managers if there is a way to find out the exclusive No. I wouldnt mind paying to have the strips made etc. P.S. I know why they changed the original BBS alloys for them 7 spokes coz there a b**ch to clean 2 hours its just...

Ahhh top blokeyou once did me a deal on a valver bonnet when you were at the old garage in chesterfield. most appreciated! Although it was murder down chesterfield road back into mansfield in the vw cabriolet the bloody thing tookoff as the wind got unserit and i had to climb in the back and...

No one seems to know about the exclusive, I would be happy just to find out what number it is!

Its you with the cup then i wonderd who owned that. Are you local then? im from Mansfield. But Gordon Lamb are better than my local. The Parts manager used to work @ Arriva in kirkby where we got our first Clio and i have bought stuff from Lambs in the past.

No probs £9k bargain! Missing the door sill plates with the limited edition No. on it though, can you help?

SOUNDS LIKE MINE, RENAULT OWNED IT AND WAS THE LAST 172 EXCLUSIVE I THINK ITS L8 2002 WHICH GARAGE DO YOU WORK @ GORDON LAMB?

LMAO!

If your talking about the old traffic light grand prix adhear to the steps below and you will be laughing. You need to hammer it in 1st gear although as i have said earlier make sure the engine is not cold. Dont be temped to change before 6k even though the engine is screaming for mercy. As...

Agreed, get caning them lads so there is no resistance later on. If you treat them with kid gloves they get used to it and dont want to give you the full rev range when you need it. I dont mean mistreat them but they are big old engines and wont hurt to bounce off the limiter when shes at racing...

Your not the only one TED I own one and is not just the green you get *Scarab Green *Full leather *bbs Alloys *more limited edition than the williams with only 172 of them made! *totally understated people think its a 1.2 etc. *and the rest of the 172 spec...

Still getting 42 average mpg and thats giving it some!

doh silly me!

If my ph1 172 does not have auto wipers whats the sensivity control doing on the stalk and whats the small dark rectangle at the bottom middle of the windscrean for? I though they were to do with auto wipers no?

Sounds good - add a couple of quid onto the cliosport yearly membership and that entitles us to discount and preferential treatment at BB - tuning. BB tuning have the benefit then of having 1000+ regular customers. Would have to be decent discount though and pricematching etc.

Just sent the email lets see what happens?

That is extremely helpfull, i owe you one;) thanks viv

Non really just the air fuel ratio would be wrong and your ecu should notice and put more fuel in i think, although nick will probably say thats horse sh*t:D The uprated FPR will allow more fuel giving better combustion and icrease in performance. I cant see any significant problems in the...

cs manager? details!

Yeah thanks someone had a guys name to contact though who was alledgedly very helpfull. If some one could give me his contact details that would be great. It was mentioned in a topic about returning your car when your fed up with it!

Thanks viv thats very re-assuring, did the problem have a knock on effect on any other components. engine wear etc. has the car been ok ever since? Was it covered under warrenty?

That may have been incorrect reading from the trip computer when the instrument panel was faulty then? So if its reading 33mpg thas about right then? Damn i thought it was really economical giving me a max of 50mpg the bloody trixter. Anyone got that address/contact details of that guy @ Renault...

what was that then?

:sick: Car looks a bit like this at the minute! When do the problems stop? After the problem with the trip computer reseting itself diagnosed as a faulty instrument panel and replaced. We had the car back and felt like this again :D However this only lasted about 2 days as a more serious...

Looks like a megane thats been in the crusher look at that back end defo looks like its been in a shunt! Kudos to the renault mechanics for the engine though 255 bhp should kick everyones hot hatches to the kerb. Just hope it fits my 172.

Thats not bad would renault fit the engine for that?

I think he meant: b there or b ?  ;)

Make sure your clutch cable isnt the wrong one ;). I had legs like Arnie after driving to germany and doing the mighty 12 mile neurberg ring a couple of times with a faulty clutch, ouch. I would change the oil after the racing as you will get deposits floating around after thrashing the...
