I was just wondering what becomes of the bonnet space in the V6. Anyone own one?

I was just thinking about having a mobile phone car kit installed in my 172. Do they have to add an ugly antenna anywhere? Are the 172s hard to wire , and will my trim be destroyed in the process? (Ive had a bad experience with panells fitting loosley and never being the same from...

I have a simelar problem. Really high sounding squeek over bumps or rough roads, from what sounds like the door trim. Right next to your ear as well.

Im only just 18, and I drive my dads 172 (only car Im now insured on). My parents were understandably cautious about letting me drive this car. But while everyones been saying how youve got to get used to the power, and questioning if young inexperienced drivers should be in these cars, I have...

Joseph Im mostly around the north shore, and you might see my old man around the city. Its Monaco Blue with Euro plates. Ive been looking for a sport to flash and wave, but havnt seen one yet! Not too many around our way. Seen a couple parked though.

The wet would have nothing to do with breaking in the car, however i wouldnt recommend thrashing it in the wet till youre used to the car.

I like the red though. Nice touch.

Mate, you can see a reflection of you taking the shot, with your mate behind you reflected in the bumper. I had the same problem when photographing front bumper close ups of my Blue Mk II 172, and havnt figured out how to avoid it. Only seems to happen on the front bumper corner though. I might...

Whats the best way to take off quick at the lights without smoking too much rubber?

What colours your beast going to be? Placed the order yet?

I believe its recommended to keep the engine under 3500 revs for the first 1000Kms (not sure what it is in miles) at least. Check the manual, it will have the Renault recommended limit and duration. Basically just drive it carefullly for a while to let the engine wear in before you thrash it...

The angle can be adjusted to an extent, however the driving postition is a little bit quirky and feels strange at first. A new wheel wont change th angle, and im not sure about the implications of having the airbag removed.

Maybee the previous owners had them fixed?

Thats no good. I dont get that sort of thing here in Australia, so I have no experience with it. We did buy a BMW from Germany and have it shipped over once though. We had no problems serviceing it here. Get what you pay for I guess.

Why do you not want an airbag? Do you want to die? ;)

After reading many of the posts on this site about the poor build quality of the Clios, and Renaults below par customer service and Garages, i was half expecting to find our new Clio Sport (172) falling apart when we went to take delivery, and the dealer throwing us they keys and slamming the...
