theres definatly no way of drilling thru the nut and "removing" it from inside out? might wreck the inverse thread inside the part which is on the car (cant think wat its called- the bit in the middle of the disc)

i shudnt worry, most camera vans in 30 areas are set at 40mph thats wot i my friend got told after being caught doing 41!!!!

wot, that much extra for all those mods? id rather take my chances...

im glad its getting sorted incidently, how old was the car? and how much did u loose from the original price of the car?

haha- Mr cheeky!

yes i know but that dont help my cause... can ne1 price up those mods??? or mayb i shud try and go with adrian flux or someone like them!?

cool- go get em moose!

if its the insurance company write off u cant do nething to it, as, if they pay u out then the car technically belongs to them for spare parts (mind u- theyll just scrap it)

....waiting for the news from the phone call....

in the 1st pic u can still see the CS sticker! but really its terrible, and shows how bad dodgy wiring can be.

worrying cant wait to hear the outcome..

argh man thats soo sad. really, terrible for a modern car. wen my dad had trouble with his vauxhall omega, he mananged to write to the head office and get his problems sorted! not sure if u can do the same, but if u get those pics printed off and go there then im sure they will quitely do...

hmm, ive had to change a tyre once or twice but have never run out of petrol or properly broken down (*except wen i was crashed into!)

dont get how thats 1 8 2 in binary? i can see where ure gettin the 1 and 2 from, but surely the middle group shud read... 10000000?

Right i have a 2004 1.4 16v clio and im 18yrs old. im with zurich international, under my dads name. i have made the following mods... K&n airfilter, -35mm lower spax suspension, and soon i will have rear lexus lights. my dad keeps saying "dont worry about telling the insurance company...

rude makes me so angry sometimes wen u hear about cases where someone has run. b******s init. btw, wat r the insurance doing, and have u told them about all ure mods in the past?

which is exactly why i park in the mother and child bit at supermarkets like sainsburies. there is a nice wide space either side for idiots to swing their doors into!!!

i dont let people eat "food" or smoke in my car. obviously they can drink stuff and eat sweets or stuff on a long journey! i really do a better job on my own. uve seen some of the pictures of my car wen i get it immaculate...

r u the guy with the 210bhp 172? was talking about ure car today m8 ..

hmm but the peep at the garage really sed that if thers ne unburned fuel in ther (which there will be) then it can snap crackle and pop! but yeh- i personally thought it was only with older cars that ran richer! dean- good work m8, did 85 on the bench today and was really struggling :( wasnt...

^^^^ says the man with the massive 1.4l engine!

hey- its only a 1.2 - cant weigh that much! heheheheheehehe

wen i get my exhaust, ive been told that it might pop quite nicely wen i rag it then back off (as their removing the centre box and putting a 1 and 3/4inch pipe there instead of it, and was wondering if i gud get ne flames out the back? been told that i can get sparkplug type things to ignite...

yeh its kinda like this pic... http://erc.qmuc.ac.uk/cliosport/gallery/full/1085437885__Clio1.jpg although mine doesnt do this, the rev counter is going at a diff pace to the speedo, so it says 122 on mine wen the revs r at 3000rpm- strange init! [Edited by S2 PTH on 24 May 2004 at 11:28pm]

lol- b4 u got ure ICE install?! hehe checked out an exhaust today and might b gettin one soon!

nope. wot u gotta do is.... have the keys turned round till all the lights come on then press the button and hold it in. then turn it off then back on till the lights come on only then u can take ure finger off the button.

u know that diagnostic checker thing u can do for the comp on mk2 clios, well... my m8 did it on his 172 today and the speedo went round to 160mph, and wen i did it on my 04 1.4 16v it only went round to 122mph. now funnily enough, that is the top speed which ive seen on my speedo a few times...

ne1 seen many about? ive only seen one, as i believe its quite rare to see them! [Edited by S2 PTH on 24 May 2004 at 10:33pm]

stick it in the washing machine- suposed to be fine for it. then u need to get some new oil (the special K&N stuff).
