Hope it all gets sorted for you mate. Unfortunatley it's a sign of the times we're living in, in the last year this has happened to 3 people I know. all by the same method... house broken into and the keys pinched. Most recent one was my next door neighbours V5 Golf. I think the thing is you...
Mine's a 2002 and clunks every now and then when selecting 1st, I notice it even more after a track day thrashing! It doesn't really bother me though, just character of the car I suppose!
Weird that you mension this Oms, I used to get about 35 - 36 mpg driving backwards and forwards to work, since I had the car serviced (36k) the mileage has dropped to around 33 - 34 althought sometimes as low as 30 driving the same journeys, same speed, etc... only a slight drop, but weird that...

Seems to be a regular occurence lately, my next door neighbour had her house broken into and her Golf V5 stolen off her drive yesterday.
F*cking country's going to the dogs.........
Try booking up for the next Renaultsport trackday, and go out in a passenger ride in one..... they are pretty awesome motors, Recaro seats are gorgeous, oh and the engine is no different to the 172 / 182.
Blimey.... this cup gets spotted all the time! I worked in Harlow for years and never got spotted.... This bloke gets spotted every week!
Must be the skanky oval exhaust hanging out the bottom ;)
If the disks were warped youd get a feeling coming up from the brake pedal, a sort of vibrating which would be more intense at speed.... It doesnt sound to me as if your disks are warped...
