Spotted at around lunch time, parked up outside a building just outside the entrance to the Pavilion Gardens' car park. Wasn't sure whether it was a CS'ers, but it seemed to have some form of sticker in the rear window. Looked good either way!!

Spotted this on my travels today. *ahem*

Had a little meet today. Was meant to be held at Elvaston Castle, but due to the shoddy weather, we had to go to a local pub instead. Here are some of my crap photos of the day. Notts Meet - February 2012 by Harpham y0, on Flickr Notts Meet - February 2012 by Harpham y0, on Flickr Notts...

I keep seeing shots on here about the above, so I thought id give it a try tonight. Bear in mind I know nothing about it, so I was pretty pleased that my photos actually came out lol. The place where I went to was totally pitch black. No street lights or anything, bar the sky that had a...

Here are my photos from the Yorkshire TOPO meet today. Nothing great, as it was bloody cold. Enjoy. TOPO 2012 by Harpham y0, on Flickr TOPO 2012 by Harpham y0, on Flickr TOPO 2012 by Harpham y0, on Flickr TOPO - Sunflower's First CS Meet by Harpham y0, on Flickr TOPO - Lewis's Albi...

My brother has asked me to come along and take some photos of a band he manages, as he knows i'm a bit of a "photo wh0re". The location is a room that is covered with UV paint. I've never done anything like this before, so could anyone offer any advice with regards to the best settings to use...

As above. Basically, if/when I get this Sunflower, it'll need a bit of tlc. Just basically wondering if anyone can recommend any decent polishes, waxes/sealants etc to help really bring the shine back out?! My main concern is the seemingly faded rear bumper (unless it is the worlds worst...

Bit of a random thread, but what is the best way to approach someone about purchasing their car if it isn't actually for sale?! I plan on trying my luck at getting hold of a certain Sunflower in my village (as long as everything checks out), but I don't want to come across as desperate (to the...

Sorry to be making a million and one threads, but just think that ill get a better answer for this question with it's own thread... With the Oreca 55mm Group N system, can it be fitted to the standard Ph1 cat too, for MOT/legality purposes?! From searching threads, some people seem to think...

As above, if part of your exhaust is blowing slightly, would this be a MOT failure?? My standard centre section has a few very small holes where it is blowing at the moment. I am trying to decide which exhaust system to go for. If I go for an Oreca, it'll mean changing back to standard for the...

Just this past week, i've noticed that my battery charge level is dropping down much quicker than usual. It usually lasts me a good 8-9 hours of use. Recently, it has only been lasting about 4ish hours?!! Do I need to do some form of disc cleanup or delete aload of crap off the HDD? Is the...

I have the standard headunit in the Ph1. How on earth do you stop it from changing frequencies when listening to the radio?! More often than not, it'll change to a worser reception for me. Doing my head in, as I have no idea how to turn off that feature and I don't think i've got the manual for...

After Christmas, i'm planning to give the Ph1 a proper service, as I want to make sure that everything is fresh and good quality (the last owner put budget tyres on, so i'm guessing he skimped on oil etc). Ill be doing it myself though, as theres no point paying a garage to do it. Where is the...

As most are aware, a couple months back, I went full r****d and swapped this: 29/5/11 Post Detail Shoot by Harpham y0, on Flickr For this: Ph1 Winter Detail 30/10/11 After by Harpham y0, on Flickr Well, this week, I thought id get a sticker made up to suit the car... (Cheers Ady, btw...

The Ph1 Shed has got quite a few dints, so I was wondering how much does it generally cost for dent removal? I have one really big dent in the drivers door which really bugs me. The rest are just tiny parking dents, which aren't too noticeable, but may aswell get them sorted at the same time...

Spotted his car outside of the Pulse Gym in Ripley just now. NOODLE!! ;)

Spotted in Westfield Shopping Centre's car park... I know the owner is on here, as I recognise the number plate. CS flyered anyway :rasp: Oh haiii..... Car looked great btw!!

Right, I know this has been covered a few times, but I need to make the right choice on this... First off, I still can't decide whether to go for a stealth or pea-shooter style (hanging below the bumper). If I have a stealth, it'd be K-tec, but the only thing putting me off is the fact you'd be...

Since moving back to the 1*2 scene, i've noticed that alot of used parts are ridiculously overpriced. When I owned the 172 Flamer a year or so ago, I bought a Cup Spoiler for it. £85 posted iirc. £30 to have it sprayed. Now people are wanting £150+ for a spoiler?!! SRS??! They're like £170-90...

Do I need to change the windscreen washer motor? Basically, this afternoon we've flushed out the fluid tank thing, made sure the jets aren't blocked and had a play with the actual motor. Its working slightly better now, but it still only trickles out fluid. Not even enough pressure to get onto...

Daveski and I are meeting on Sunday afternoon and we wondered if anyone was up for making this into a little mini meet?!! Ill even get the camera out ;) Not sure on location yet though, as we haven't decided yet. Probably be around the 2-3pm time though.

My Ph1's steering wheel is melted to f**k and it's already bugging me. I want to replace it with a good quality standard Renault one, on the cheap. Cliospares have one on eBay for like £30, but it isn't from the 172. What are the actual differences in the wheels from Clio's that age? (I may...

Time to start a project thread about my 4th Clio... A RenaultSport Ph1 Clio 172. My plan first is to run it over winter to make sure it doesn't break down every 2 miles, then... - Stealth system (are there any options other than ktec?) or an Oreca? system, as I like the "pea-shooter" look -...

So today, I picked up my 4th Clio... Ill start off with a quick history lesson about the ones that I have previously owned. 2003 1.2 Clio Extreme y0 /chav Ph2 172 Flamer And the 3rd shed Wales 2011 Clio On The Beach by Harpham y0, on Flickr Finally, the 4th Clio... Ph1 172 y0 Ph1 172...

I want to try and reignite the love for the 200, as its an awesome machine and I think I need to grow a pair, rather than kop out so early into my ownership. Spotted another set of standard wheels for sale and thought id try and go for my original plan of having some red wheels. My...

As the title says, im seriously considering selling the 200 at the moment. :S Although I love it to bits, the car is truly amazing, and it's the best i've ever owned, something just isn't clicking. I think it's partially the fact that I don't actually own the car?! I don't seem to have joy in...

First off, im not sure where to put this, so ill whack it in here, as I think it is on ebay or somewhere, but my mate hasn't provided a link yet. He's basically bought a new car and is picking it up on Monday. If it hasn't sold by then, he'll be trading it in, so needs a quick sale. Quick...

I organised a meet for us East Midlands lot today at Wollaton Hall, Nottingham. Bit of a fail tbh. Not that many turned up, considering how many were meant to... 3 Clios, 1 Scenic and about 8-9 people attend. Here are some of the crap photos I took before we got bored of watching the deer and...

JP. asked me to have a go at detailing his BMW. I took up the challenge... and what a challenge it was for an amateur like me. Due to work and the weather today (ffs), I couldn't spend as much time as I would have liked to on this and I think the finish suffered because of this. So, here is the...

K-Dizzle (Gray) and I have been speaking about organising a bit of a 'meet and photos' in the Notts/Derby area, as its been quite a while since we all got together and there seems to be alot of us that are up for going out for some photo wh0ring. Firstly, we're stumped as to where to hold this...
