Black latest shape Clio driving around north east (today in South Shields) with not just silver 16v badges on the rub strips but 2.0 16v badges. What a joker. Looked nothing better than a 1.2/1.4 **03 FN* Why do people do this? It just makes people think theyve wasted a 172. I hate it when...

Not sure if any other northeasties have posted this, I only got wind of it through my sister handing me her papers to recycle: Last Tuesday, at 7am, a South Shields woman, 29, survived a 50 ft plunge over a clifftop in her Renault Clio. Looks like attempted suicide judging by where it was (the...

WTF? Any chance http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7901050350&category=23013these would work better than normal brakes? Surely the piece cut out in each bit would better be there and have more friction material in contact with the pad, like a normal disc? Just a gimmick?

Only went for a gander but ended up having a test drive and having the saleman turning the thumb screws on me, as he put it. Pre-registered mondial blue Cup with 51miles on it, £10999. Impressive car but to be honest it didnt feel that quick. Granted, I wasnt used to it, the car was 3up and it...

My sister has just bought a 1.2 16v 03 Dynamique in black. She doesnt get it until April (dont ask) and hasnt driven it yet (again, dont ask) but shes signed for it and is happy. Some things shes not sure of (nor am I), do they have factory fit alarm or just immobiliser? Does it come with...

Can anyone detail me a spec list for a Clio Dynamique? Ie alloys, fogs, abs or whatever? My sisters after one. Which is the best to go for? Shes not really bothered about speed (currently got a 1.0L Micra!!) 1.2/1.4/1.6/dCi? Or infact what other model if not the Dynamique? She wont have a...

I posted this on the Saxo group a while back and, as ever, got very little help. Possibly because I didnt type it in text message style typing. A few weeks ago I whacked the passenger front wheel on a kerb (wheel hit kerb at about 45 degree angle). Off and on theres been a squealing noise...

Hi dudes, little bit off topic as Ive got a VTS but I cant be bothered to get mucky and stuff (and its cold). Ive booked my car for an oil change next Monday after work, but the car will be hot. Is that ok? The mechanic says it is as the oil will be thinner and drain easier. Id have thought it...

Hi, Ive just bought (well I get it next week) a VTS. It comes with the standard Citroen alarm/immob with ultrasonic sensor, Ive got a sterring wheel Disklok and gearstick Mul-t-lok, do you reckon thats ok or should I invest in a decent alarm asap? Which one would you recommend, I think I could...

Getting my MOT done on Saturday a month early. Car has been firing on 3 cylinders at idle and sits at 1600 revs when cold, 1300 when warm. Too high Im guessing. Had leads, plugs, distributor cap and arm done and the tappets. Im told itll be a worn valve as the compression is low. I took it to a...

Hi dudes. For the the last eight months Ive been worried about the day my MOT needed doing but Ive booked it in for this Saturday. Its got 108000 miles on it. 1992 1.4 RT K reg. Had it since 08/99. Im papping it coz it seems to be misfiring on one cylinder. Had leads checked, plugs...

Hi, I need new rear shocks for my RT. Ive had I lowered 50mm at the back and I was wondering if 16v Clio shocks will be ok? Do they fit and if so, will they work exactly like my RT ones and not affect the height? Apologies as Im not too good on the technical side of things. Cheers.

Hi can anyone tell me what size bolt I need to fit into the torsion bar. Ive looked on here but Im slightly confused. I actually want to raise the back end of my 1.4RT. My friend lowered it ages ago, I dont see him anymore, but its a little to low for my liking now as Im regularly taking...
