Just wondered what stickers or decals people have on their RS Clios? I'm just looking for some ideas on whether there's any good ideas out there that I could steal some inspiration from. :p
I have an Iceberg Silver Clio 172 (2003) which has the original wheels but they are currently a dark anthracite kind of colour. They're a bit kerbed, all be it just round the edges but I'm not keen on the colour. It's not terrible but I don't think it looks that great either.
Just wondered...
Well having back in 2003 I bought myself a new Iceberg Silver Clio 172. I sold it after a couple of years to buy my 225.
Anyway, a friend of mine was in the market for a Clio 172 last year and bought a near identical one to my old one. Anyway he picked a good'un, 50k on the clock, good...
Just wondered if anyone has a favourite list of products they like to use on their cars? Everyone has their preferences but interested to see what people like. I guess my list is as follows -
Foam : Valet Pro PH Neutral Snow Foam
Shampoo : Dodo Juice Born to be Mild/Bilt Hamber Autowash
Clay ...
Well I'd being promising my mum I'd wash her car I finally got round to it today. I told her that I'd rather let it get dirty for a while than have it go through a car wash.
So after a good couple of months with nothing but a layer of Collinite 845 wax for protection, the car got a much needed...
Today was the Goodwood Breakfast Meet for June. There were some amazing cars there and a nice variety as well. I took my new camera along so I'll let the pictures most of the talking, there's plenty of them!
We followed these two for part of the journey
Then these in the car park...
Well I got a new camera for my birthday so thought I'd test it out on the Gordini.
For the detailing people, the car was recently polished with Dodo Juice Need for Speed and currently has a layer of Dodo Juice Blue Velvet Pro. The wheels were sealed with Chemical Guys Wheel Guard...
If anyone is interested, I just wanted to offer an invite to ClioSport.net people to our trip to the Goodwood Breakfast Meet next Sunday, May the 1st.
It's going to be an early one but it's well worth it. This months meet is 'Supercar Sunday' so there should be some awesome machines turning...
Well been lurking on here for years now and only just became a paid member. Anyway, thought I'd post up a few pics, possibly seen them on other forums but here are my cars.
2006 RenaultSport Megane 225, owned if from new. Was only ever intended as a weekend car but somehow ended up being...
I'm sure someone will be able to confirm this.
If I'm making a claim on my insurance, am I legally entitled to take it to a bodyshop of my choice?
As some of you may have seen on my other post, some tw*t hit me and I've put the claim in to the insurers. They recommended a local bodyshop...
Well having owned 4 Clios since passing my test it would seem that my current 1993 Clio RT will be going.
I've been using it as a runabout for the last year and a half or so and I felt it was time to move on. I picked up a rather tasty VW Lupo Sport with low miles and some tasty mods as...
I'm being a total girl about deciding what to replace my 93 Clio RT with.
I was initially in the market for spending about £2,500-£3,000 on a Clio but have kinda been swayed towards the VW Lupos.
I want a car with plenty of character and with the potential to look like a real Euro motor...
Right guys, would you part with £2-3k for a Clio with more than 50k on the clock?
I know Renault set the service intervals to 18k on the phase IIs and I know its cambelt changed at 5 years or 70k(?).
Question is, would you part with your cash for a 1.2 or 1.4 Clio with that many miles on...
Ok guys, I'm looking to sell my 1993 Clio RT for something a little newer and having owned a 2001 Clio 1.2 and a 2003 Clio 172 I know another Clio is gonna be what I'm after.
Question is, should I go for a 1.2 or a 1.4? I've driven both they are both under £350 for insure too.
The 1.4 is...
Noticed a rather clean Clio 197 pull into Tesco car park in Purley.
Middle aged owner walked off, nothing particularly stange in that. Then I spotted what I thought was some weird graphic or vinyl. Wasn't aware of Renault offerering such a thing.
Had a close look and this genius has...
...about there cars being ragged in a dealership.
I've seen a few people comment in the past that they're worried their cars have been ragged when left at the dealers because the trip computer indicates a really low MPG read out.
Well my Megane 225 went in yesterday for a service and when...
Well pleased with myself and my missus for getting the heating sorted in my Clio!!
Went and spoke with my local garage who said that a lot of the time with old Renaults, the heater matrix rusts and ends up getting blocked.
So I was advised to take the expansion tank off and basically...
Since buying my 1993 Clio RT I noticed that the heating was taking an age to warm up.
Even after 20 minutes it still wasn't warming up much and the water temp gauge didn't move much.
Well now, its not warming up at all. I did a two hour drive the other day and the blowers were only pushing...
Any owners with the Clio DCIs got any positive/negative feedback???
I'm looking to get rid of my 1993 Clio RT in the new year as I'm now doing 240 miles every other weekend and not only is it not very practical for the drive its also not that economical!!
So I'm thinking of going for...
The missus and I were detailing her 182 Cup when she spotted that the lacquer on the passenger side, front arch appears to be bubbles slightly.
Not really badly, but you can see that on the edge by the bonnet, it looks slightly white and runs most of the way along that endge.
Its still...
Not on my Meg but me and the missus 182.
She'd been going on about claying her coz of bits of tar etc on the bodywork, so on Friday we set about with two bars.
Step 1 - Wash
Step 2 - Clay the entire car
Step 3 - Wash Again
Step 4 - Meguiars Polish
Step 5 - Meguiars Carnuba Wax...
Well Sarah finally got her wheels powder coated white!!
They had a couple of scuffs and also the white contrasts the blue and matches the stripes perfectly.
Only down side is that it looks like they were done in a bit of a hurry as two of the wheels have been slightly...
She's got her gordini striped 182 Cup booked in to get the wheels powder coated white!!! :D
They need to be refurbished anyway after she caught them a couple of times, and I am also guilty of catching one of them.
I'll get some piccies up once its done.
Anyone know of anyone else...
Anyone got any ideas on getting the silver seatbelts in the missus 182 Cup clean???
Somehow they've ended up rather grubby after 14,000 miles and really need cleaning up. Just seems to be a bit grimy rather than having specific stains.
Anyone else had this problem? Any cleaning tips???
Well finally my gf has decided to get her 182 Cup wheels refurbished and powder coated white.
Same place I had my Megane wheels done are doing hers, Wicked Wheels in Crawley.
She's got a 182 Cup with Gordini stripes so the white alloys should look spot on. I just wondered if anyone had...
I spot a Clio Trophy every time I get the train out of East Croydon towards London.
Its parked up behind a load of company units and the company it was parked outside the back of was called 'Norman Lewis'.
Not idea what the company does but wondered if whoever it was is on here? :D
Spotted a rather ropey, Phase II (pre face lift) blue Clio with rather 'unique' stipes down the left side.
The trouble was that the stripes used looked like the big fat ones that are supposed to be 'viper stripes' and they just looked terrible.
Thankfully it wasn't an RS Clio! lol
