When ya accelerate in say 3rd/4th gear, how does ya engine sound? Just wondering if they all sound the same and whether mine sounds like its supposed to.

Yeah ya just get the fan kick in and a whoooy sound for a while and then it cuts off, i tend to give it few second coz im used to driving a R5 GT Turbo. I always expect the 16v to tear away at low revs, but they need a bit more oooph dont they. Good once in the higher revs though, lovely after...

If ya wanted, GDi could put a GTT in ya Clio. They do work on Clio engines too. If youre interested ask for Andy Cutler, i spoke to him about my valver as well as the 5. Andy runs GDi btw. 07010 716440. Theyre in Caxton Cambs.

Nah m8, wanted to, took it to BBT but cost £9,000 for the work. I was gonna go to GDi coz theyre much cheaper and seem to know their biz. Bought my 16v instead, i know that wont impress you at the mo. How come ya coolant was so low? Have you been in contact with the previous owners at...

Ive got mobil1 15w 50, i think the Renny book says 15w 50, dont quote me on that, sorry to add to the confusion.

Have ya checked the obvious stuff like coolant etc? So sorry for ya, i was in that position in my GTT a while back

phase 3 innit? Thought mine was the phase 2 up to 98, then the 3 comes in?

No no no, grey is quickest, ever wondered why were never seen?

My point was that low capacity engines were designed as run-around cars not for racing, cars designed for racing are strengthened so ragging a 1.2 seems pointless, better off practicing the handling rather than ragging it.

The more fsh the better too.

What could you possibly hope to race in a 1.2? Even a R5 1.4 has to be turbo charged.

In particular the performance types, ie 16v upwards. Mines grey, only seen one other grey so far.

What were/are the most common colours through to rarest standard? Seems to be mainly red cars.

Alright then.

Thanx m8.

Which suits the valver the mst? My current one is almost non existant. Quite like the E tech type, but not sure whether it woud suit a Clio or not? Anyone got a piccy of one done like that? Ta.

Not a nice thing to happen, why not just buy the bloody things if ya want em that much? Seems very anti social to do such a thing to a fellow Clio owner and then have the nerve to drive around pretending to be him more or less. Where was their Clio loyalty when they damaged and stole from...

Where do ya get the Elf stuff? nobody seems to have it.

Can someone please tell me the best oil to use for a 1.8 16v L reg? Ive currently got some mobil1 15w 50 fully synthetic, but thought maybe semi? If i use the mobil1 on my car with 84k , will it harm it? Ta.

ahhhhhhhhhh, thanx for the bit about the middle guages, my crankshaft seals just been done but i was worried as the oul guage max min went up to juast under max just before i started up and when i started up it went down to nothing, phew! btw, the other two do change about, especially the far...

Be paitient m8, i know its hard, but itll pay off in the end on ya ncb, then ya can go for something like a Valver, ya can then scare ya m8s sh*tless when they think ya still got ya 1.2. There are too many t**sers on the road as it is, ya dont want to add to them do ya.

Nice one, like mine but mines grey.

Their egos cant deal with the idea that theyre not Mikey Schumacher. Ya have to pick cars that complement ya driving ability to enjoy them the most, id hate to have a car i was scared to push and cost the world to run. Play with realistic equiverlents of ya car and ya wont go wrong, plus...

You should have a letter with a 4 digit no and password thingy. Ya can change that to something youd prefer too. Welcome btw.

As long as youre happy m8, well done, nice car.

You Plonker. What ya need is as many ppl tp fart in ya car as possible so as to dry it out with hot air. Then get someone else to drive it til the whiffs gone. Am i useful or what?. (dont answer that).:p

There are Saxos all over the place, besides the badge is there a way of telling a vts from a vtr?

Interesting, as i know very little on my own car.

What an arse, he didnt have the sense to just go elsewhere rather than risk it, his own car too. Maybe the fitter should have found a more suitable stopping place for the job. Shame with any car let alone a new one.

You is a Clio thats enough doh innit. Just dont start dressing Ali G style.
