NORTHAMPTON - YEH!! SIXFIELDS - CINEMA, PIZZA, McD, 10 Pin Bowling???

how many days has your car be off the road for warranty work in its first year - 9!

average mpg? - boring, but Ive seen everything from 20 - 99 claimed! 10K @ 20mpg £1800 10K @ 70mpg £500 (thats me)

gone in 60 seconds!

got a copy of EVO Clio V6 special supplement to compliment regular owner info. "2003s greatest drivers cars put to the ultimate test" (16 page Reno promo brochure using info from Evo car of the year and Fast Fleet from Jan 2004, part no: 7711 290 475) ** FREE TO FIRST PM WITH POSTAL ADDRESS **

replace it with a VW Toureg V10 Superchipped diesel this superchipped 2.5 Ton monster does 0-60 in 6.0!! with only around 1500 KG Clio to shift? daft idea I know!

might find genuine 18" article on VW VAG or SEAT forums. seen em on a Fabia RS, so someone must be sellin em

your running costs will double!! Scoobs are brill, but do you really need a 4x4 that does 15mpg and group 12 million insurance??

should manage it! to drop just under 10 youd prolly need over 100BHP (1.6 16V about 9.5 with 110BHP) 10 is my aim with diesel power (IK and superchips) = 103BHP (11.6s 0-60 with 85 BHP)

SORRY GUYS - NOT ALLOYS. 15 inch trims SAME as on old shape Megane, some Clios on continent and basic Laguna - most people stick after-market alloys on anyway. DEFO wouldnt pay list thou!! £9.2K for a dCi 65! only paid £600 more for an dynamique 80 with air, metallic and alloys!! AND sold...

WELCOME!! not the best built cars, but theres just summat about em!!

Im in Northants too -Towcester! But in Bucks during day. Northants & Bucks meet - MK??

I bet BB performance tuning (R5 & Clio specialists) in Earls Colne, Colchester will know. click on icon @ top of page!

mines lowered 40mm and I DONT wanna lower it anymore. If you dont want that cruiser look, I think it looks sporty enough without looking too modded. B4 http://erc.qmuc.ac.uk/cliosport/gallery/full/1077542004__05490002.jpghttp://erc.qmuc.ac.uk/cliosport/gallery/full/1077542004__05490002.jpg...

Should be quicker when nearly empty (weight) - running below empty on fumes will pick up sh*t in the tank and could make it a run bit worse. WEIGHT - 1 Litre approx 1 kilo, so 50kg is about 5% of kerb weight on a new one, about 7% on a 950cc Reno 5!! usually pessimisitic guages - if I fill...

yep ALL recent small/medium Reno should be same. check difference in circumference on miata link at bottom of page: http://www.cliosport.net/styling/tyreguide.asphttp://www.cliosport.net/styling/tyreguide.asp should be max 3% out to have unoticeable effect.

there is some on ere - search for "black alloys " over last month!

oops ......... 9.7 for dCi 80 (Diesel Car Nov 02) well 0.1 sec could be life and death facing an HGV!

Mark 1 172 (April 2000) Top Gear Mag = 9.9 50-70 in 5th 9.8 for my Diesel!! about 8.... in 5th for Mark 2 172 & 182

Love me dCi - IK and Superchips coming. only fed up with pratts denting the doors in car parks and the friggin neighbours kids nickin the ally dust caps!

find a good independent for 72K - should be half that! Full Main Dealer Service past 50K is very rare (on any make of car) - as long as youve got stamped book and receipts nobody will be bothered come selling time!!

Buy a nearly new cup - this Reno. finance IS available on second hand!!

Reno finance was best for me! I only paid £300 in fees on 5K @ 3.2% on a New Reno!! (5K would have cost £500-£800 in fees anywhere else) £9800 + £300 for a car listing @ 11K (air & metallic) £3600 depo. £200 PM x 24 £1600 FINAL!! Watch the Total Figure to Pay - the first finance...

Cadence does mean "rythmical", so ON-OFF. basically brake v. firmly until JUST at point of lock then OFF and ON. shouldnt EVER hear more than a chirp or not quick enough reactions!! ALSO 1) prolly less grip on inside (gravel etc.) 2) most cars pull slightly left due to camber of road...

or a little orse - PONY or a posh orsey sport - POLO or a WAN*ER - Pajero (Shogun) means wan*er in Spanish or a sh*t - MR2 in french is "Meurr eRRR De"

V. envious of Scotland Tour (Aberdeen Uni graduate), but F*CK me - 50 gallons! I could do 3500miles on that!! Still love a V6 thou!

good luck mate - let us know!

I had a full set of 8 (yes 8) nicked by my neighbours kids TWICE!! cheeky fu**ers - eventually got 8 back 1st time, 7 the next!

remember a Golf weighs about 1400kg, a Clio dCi is 980kg so a dCi 100 (or chipped 80) is roughly the same power to weight as a Golf TD PDi 130 (actually about 145bhp) If you want it to be as fast as 172, forget it! save your modding cash and buy a Seat Ibiza PD 130 and chip it to 172...

Yep! was a bit smoother, quiter and refined than my dCi 80, but prob. cos of that didnt FEEL any faster!! A DCi 80 is actually about 85 and is a LOT quicker than 1.2 or 1.4 petrol mid-range where it really matters - 145lb/ft torque compared to about 80lb/ft for 1.2 and 100lb/ft for 1.4...
