Hi Geordiepaul,

Hey Shorty,
Have you tried Motorway Tyres in Skipton? (Across from the cinema)
My other half had some cheap tyres for her clio from there. They were a budget brand made by one of the big manufacturers (Might of been Michelin that made them?) Good tyres though...
Cheers Potster
If you buy a 172 from Motorpoint is a european import so you only get a 2 Year Warranty (3 Years if you buy from Reno UK) And I think Im right in saying that you dont get the 3 years breakdown cover. Oh and it might be a 2002 spec.
You also need to inform your insurance company that its an...
Bad luck mate!
My mates a copper and Ive asked him about this 100MPH instant ban stuff, its actually 90+ and you can get a ban @ police officers discretion. But I know two people that have been caught doing 95ish one got 3 points and a £60 fine, the other that went to court got 4 points and...
Yeah I get a similair noise from mine. It always happens on long sweeping bends when excellerating hard. Probably starts at 3.5K onwards.
Im gonna take it in soon for that and the rattles.
Ill let you know what Reno say.

You guys should feel lucky!
My other half has a Dci and hers has been in for the following: -
Recall 1 - Replacement Sump bolts - While replacing them the dealer found a crack in the block after only 12,000 miles. Car was gone for nearly 2 weeks for a new engine.
Recall 2 - Seat belt...
Bit of a Trek but there is a really good Renault Dealer in Skipton called Nicolas Smiths Tel - 01756 792277. Theyre a smaller family based dealer that have been around for longer than I can remember. Always got an old Gordini or similar outside in for service/repair so that must be a good sign...
Ive just picked up my 172 today after being made to wait 6 weeks :(
But my question is why have I wasted all of these years driving boring cars like the scooby sport etc....when I could have had a car that is like having Jakki Degg (if spelt right?) serving you breakfast in bed naked!!??
GOD...
ONLY 46ish hours to go!
After being delayed by 10 days my 172 will be with me soon....
Just in time for the bank holiday weekend :cry: damn the roads will be too busy to enjoy it...
Ill let everyone know how I get on!
ARGH GOD DAMN.....Stop taunting me.....
I was supposed to get my 172 in iceburg on the 6th of April, but nearly ten days later still no sign of it! argh.....
:(:@
Enjoy the car mate! Hopefully I might see mine before too much longer...
Let us know what Ive got to look forward to.....
I think the import centre does the main of the PDi (Pre Inspection Delivery)
But mine failed on the seat belt pre-tensioners....who needs them...Im not going to have an accident...I hope :)
Bloody Renault have let me down already...and I havent even got the car yet!
It failed the import centre inspection!
Has anyone else had this problem?
