Ok, its time that my fronts stopped wearing and my backs to go down as when i replace the types id like to get all 4 done the same as I wont be buying the contisports. Also, as Im going on another trackday soon i thought it would be a good idea to swap fronts and rears so that the rears wear...

I plan this weekend to remove my dash to fit my headunit/changer in the car. Ive read the dash removal, all pretty straight forward, Ive heard that the pillars should be removed first (are these easy?) and Im a little concerned about the passenger airbag. Should these things be ok?

When I came back from the euro trip last night I was passed by a silver V6 with the best plate, V6 6LLO which was made to look like V6 CLIO - such a great plate, anyone else see this on the way home, was on the M25. No cliosport sticker as I pulled up behind it, but then it booted it (we were...

Because of a crack in my windscreen, RAC windscreens will be coming to replace it. I believe the 172 is different to other clios, is this correct? I said this on the phone and they said that there is a normal or heat reflective, i said the heat reflective one. Anything else I need to know...

Ok, as Im off to this euro trip (and last time my brand new 172 broke down) I thought id call Renault and extend my assistance to euro. They quoted my the £34.65 to extend for 4 days. Still undecided whether to bother - wouldnt have thought about it but last time it was a real pain in the...

Had a play with an M3 on the way home last night, had a couple of goes (me behind and him infront) from about 80 to !25 ish. I was with it from 80-!15 (4th gear range) but as soon as I had to slip it into 5th the M3 just left me! I know the clio is only a small car and only a 2ltr, but I was...

Last night coming home down the M40, a huge stone was thrown up and smacked my windscreen (luckily in the bottom passenger corner) but has made a inch square crack and the glass it chipped away. Should I leave this or get it replaced? If so, do it on insurance or not? Any advice from anyone...

OK, for some reason my 172 auto lights have decided to stop working. Now i know they can be disabled (by turning on and off the lights twice right?) but I dont remember doing thing and Ive tried it again to re-enable it and nothing. Is this the correct procedure - was driving at the time...

Just seen the 172 advert again on TV and I think the silver 172 looks real nice with that black "Clio" number plate on the front. Is it legal to have one made so its white (or silver :)) on black?

Sometimes if I leave my handbrake on for a few days (car parked) and when I set off I notice sometimes the passenger rear wheel brake is stuck on and the only way to free it is to move the car and I get a "clunk" as the brake is freed. Has anyone else had this and do you think I should go and...
