Hi, I’ve noticed a leak inside on the passenger side. At first at the front but seems to have moved to the back. There seems to be a little water on the door seal (down near the bonnet release, but doesn’t look as if it’s coming from there really based on where the water is. I cleaned out the...

-- If this post belongs elsewhere, by all means move to where it should -- Hi all, Should be getting a 3D printer in a couple of weeks and wondered if anyone has any images of past Clio (MK3) bits they've done. Got a few ideas myself but would be good to see other ideas. Cheeky question, but...

Hi Guys, I've seen a few posts where this looks to be fuse related. But from what I can see, the other things that would stop working if the fuse had gone (numberplate lights, aircon etc.) are still working. Need to change the bulbs to see if its just a coincidence but has anyone else had the...

Hi guys, just driving along today to the shop and had both the ABS and traction control lights come on and also the messages on the speedo screen saying check ESP AND Check ABS, its had new brake disks all round about a year ago so the only thing i can think of is theres crap on the abs rings on...

Hi guys, cant find anything on here with this specific issue. My 197 has been playing up and ended up being the battery, tonight i swapped the battery for a new one, re-calibrated the windows, starts fine now and can lock the doors with the button on the handle (keyless entry) and everything is...

Hi guys, so my boot switch has been a bit dicky over the past few days, the boot has been randomly open when starting the car and stuff, so ive ordered another switch, but then tonight its given up, is there an easy way to get to it from the inside? Im hoping i can get the trim off and plug the...

Hi guys, just thought i'd share this that i've done, bit of a different style from the norm. Not sure there would be any interest in it :)

So after a year of ownership I’ve made a few changes here and there and with my old thread images breaking i thought id start a fresh. So this is my Clio 197 Lux, judging by the how many left site theres only around 20 of these left on the road. You probably know the differences in these...

Had a play with my new led light wand, a few images merged together and it gave a good result. If anyone is interested my instagram is @lbautophoto

Hi Guys just after a bit of advice, so i'm after a bit of noise from my 197 but don't want it ruining my life. So i've been looking at removing the centre section, ive heard about there being a flatspot but realistically how much does this affect the driving experience? Also does this make the...

Not a sport but found this MK1 in a sorry state

Hi guys, this maybe a silly thing but just thought id check. So last night i noticed there was a puddle under my 197 and passed it off but then its just happened again. The puddle just looks like clear water, doesn’t smell or have any colour and is coming from underneath inline with the gear...

So ive got a cone filter i want to put on my 197 but what do people do with this bit? Thanks

Hi guys, thought id share my newest purchase, had this couple of days now and love it! Completely different to my 182 in every way, feels a lot newer and sturdier... whereas the 182 was a bit more planted and ragable. This is one of the LUX 197's, sporting the Leather seats, grey/carbon dash...

So, i woke to the sound of my alarm the other night and came out to my 182 like this, hit and run and nothing no one to claim off, complete and utter shame, it's now written off and gone ?? On the lookout for a nice 197 now just a couple of weeks ago

Hi all, noticed today on my prosport gauge that the engine was running at 120°c but the fans weren’t kicking in (usually runs at 90) the dash said it was fine, anyone know at what temperature the fans should kick in? Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hi Guys, I've come out to my clio this morning and its proper on the wonk on the front passenger side, after having a look im going to get two new springs but which ones? I'm jubious about lowering after my 1.2 clio had a shite ride after so the question is due to my car having both cup packs...

A few photos of mine and my mates 182's, bit dirty but the weather isnt exactly the best at the minute. Probably one of the best roads near us just a shame that the pub has closed.

So i bought my 182FF around a year ago now, it's fulfilled all expectations it's my daily commuter and still makes me smile on country roads on a Sunday! I originally intended to make some track beast of it, but having had modified cars i'm feeling a different way with this one. So in the coming...

Hi guys, I found this when I was clearing out some stuff the other day and wondering if anyone could shed any light on it or if it's worth anything. I bought it from a car boot a few year ago. Thanks in advance.

Last week I decided my curbed cup graphite wheels needed a tidy up, went to halfords, got some bmw sparkling graphite and did them all in a day haha, not the best finish but look loads better than they did, much to the hate of many I quickly wrapped the fogs in yellow tint but I think I might go...

Hi, I'm planning on changing my rear brake disks and pads on my 182, now in the past on all my other cars i haven't had abs or traction control, so ive been able to to change the disks and pads and not worry. Now that I do have abs and traction control, do i need to get anything adjusted or...

Hi, So I've recently bought myself a 2005 Black/Gold 182 in pretty good condition, has both the cup pack extras (Cup Spoiler and Splitter) and the graphite wheels so assuming has the suspension pack? I have the half and half seats so isn't a CUP. Having previously owned an MX5 I wanted to come...

So back in 2014 I sold my PH1 1.2 Clio and bought an Racing Green MX5 which I've loved but always wanted a Cliosport and due to a recent accident in my MX5 decided now was the time to buy one. So here's my 2005 182, there's a few niggly bits that need sorting as I'm sure you'll notice but it'll...

So its been a year since i sold my clio and ive loved my mx5 ever since but always have a thought in my mind about getting a clio sport one day. Heres my mx5: Standard mods really

It's gone so fast since I sold my 1.2 Clio which I loved with all my heart (first car problems), As i'd played Gran Turismo since an early age and with a spot of influence from an unkle i've always had a love for MX-5's. So I took the plunge and bought a 00' British Racing Green MK2 MX-5 back in...

So I sold my clio only a month ago and although I really do love my mx5, I still do miss my Clio quite a bit :), so to my delight I saw it as I sold it to someone not far away. That was until I saw the front end. So here it was in August ready for Cliosport Saturday. I put so much time money...

So it's with regret that i move onto the next forum, the MX-5 Forum. Now i know they have somewhat of a reputation as a bit of a hairdressers car but ive always wanted one. So after trawling ebay, autotrader and papers and ones on the side of the road, i just couldn't find a mk1 that didnt...
