not a bad time, good start what were you up against?

keep the 1.8 16v, itl go just the same as the rt as long as you dont press down as much ;)

youd probably find a company that would do it for less if it was third party, fire and theft, some companies see it that as you only want cover for other people, your not going to take care of your car or be a careful driver what company is your quote for the clio with? limited miles?

its so the car appeals to a wider audience, not everyone wants a car to be loud - so by making it quiet as standard its good for people who want a nippy runaround but for people who wanna go fast, they know they can put an aftermarket exhaust on it...... at the end of the day its so renault can...
