Anyone got any recommended makes?? I've had a couple from Halfords which were breathable ones and seemed pretty good except they're have a tendency not to fit over the car that well and aren't that tough. Any suggestions? :D:D

Was parked in the customer car park, wasn't for sale. Wondered if it was anyone on here? Reg was : HN05 *** By the way it was a 182 Cup. :D

Well, picked up my 225 which was away having the wheels refurbished in black. And I have to say WOW! :D It looks even better than I'd hoped. Exactly the look I wanted, the wheels are spotless and really glossy as well. Let me know what you think - These were the scuffed ones -...

I know its not a Clio but there's plenty of mechanical types on here who mights know!! :D Had a bit of a weird issue with the 5.......... Drove to pick the missus up from work in it, about 30 minutes drive. Started fine, drover fine, pulled up outside her office turned it off then...

Me and a couple of the guys in work have been checking out this site - http://www.vosa.gov.uk/vosa/apps/recalls/default.asp Gives you all the info on car recalls from 1992 onwards. Surprisingly there are a lot of recalls from Renault, some of which are for 'failing brakes'. Chap I...

...my missus wants to replace the standard gear knob on her 182 Cup (05 reg). How do you get the damn things off?? Are they glued on? Do they just need some serious twisting?

I know its about a Megane but I just wanted to know. I've had my Megane 225 since January but its only done about 2250 miles. The message 'Change Oil Soon' has flashed up which is on a timer not set according to mileage. Question is, does the oil really need changing??? The time was...

Took em last night, unfortunately a bit blurry but I thought it was a good setting -

can someone, in very simple terms explain to me what one of these is??? I know my old Clio 1.2 used to have one and I'm sure my Renault 5 has one. If you want to lower a car with a torsion bar, you replace the front springs and adjust he rear torsion bar accordingly???? Any advice...

Right, I took the gay 'Prima' stickers off the side of the five but as you can imagine, having been on the car for 11 years the paint undernearth is a bit darker than the rest. Its not very noticable and probably me being a bit sad but anyone know how I can get the paint round where the...

Are these 15" wheels???? I've found a set going cheap and am wanting them for a 1.4 Renault 5 so wondered the exact size and if they'd fit it. Cheers :D :D

I've been looking for a cheap second car, something that I can park anywhere and not have to worry about unlike leaving the Megane or the missus 182 any old place. Well I fancied something with a bit more character than an a Mk3 Fiesta or Corsa and always had an R5 or Mini in mind. I found...

I'm looking at a 1.4 L reg Clio as a possible second car, this one has 47k on the clock, is maroon/red and looks pretty neat. Its only £495 but may be able to offer a lower price. Don't intend on doing much with it but does anyone have any buying advice on this? Thanks

I'm hopefully gonna go have a look at this little bugger at some point over the weekend!!! lol Gotta check its not some rusty heap and whether I can actually fit into the car. But its only £500ono, 45k on the clock, MOT til July and tax til Feb.

Having owned 3 Clios before I should know this but being a lazy sh!te, I've always let someone else install my ICE. All I wanted to know is where the easiest place to run a power cable through the car is??? Well actually just how to get it through the bulkhead? The missus has asked me to...

Found a pic of my second car so thought I'd post up my last three cars.... Got this when I was 19, got it on an X reg with 1400 miles on it and 8 months old. Not fast, not hugely modded but very comfy and very tidy!! Then when I was 21 I got my Clio 172 - Then at 23 I...

A mate of mine has found a Clio V6 in red with 8500 miles on it for about £16k. Its an 03 plate although is a MK1 V6, he just wanted to know if there is anything that he should be looking out for when buying, known faults etc. Also does anyone know of a V6 specific club, I'm sure I saw...

I bought my gf a KENWOOD-KDC-W7531 CD/MP3 headunit (pic below). I have installed it and it seems to be working fine, sounds good, saves settings fine etc. The only problem is that we cannot seem to work out how too turn the 'Demo Mode' off. The intruction show to hold the joystick style...

My girlfriend has an 05 182 Cup and I was wondering how easy it is to replace the interior bulbs in the roof lining. It doesn't have the map light and main light like my old 172 but just one singular lense which tilts to switch on . Just wondered how many bulbs are in that and how easy...

Someone has hit the drivers side mirror on my gf's parents Clio (1.4) and the glass has broken and fallen out of the mirror. I haven't had the chance to call Renault yet and couldn't see it on e-bay but does anyone know the rough cost for replacement glass and how easy is it too fit...

Wondered if anyone was good with Photoshop and was able to a 182 Cup, racing blue ideall with racing stripes but with the standard wheels made white???? My missus mentioned it too me the other day, can't really afford to replace the wheels but we spoke about powder coating them white and...

My missus Clio Cup went in to have the bumper repaired where some tw*t had hit it in her work car park and came out with the little black blanking plates on the bumper colour coded. Asked the guy how much he'd charge to colour em and he said he'd do it for free as he'll have the paint and...

Gave you a flash and got a wave back as you came off the roundabout at Banstead. :D Anyone off here?????

Spotted 3 very nice looking Clios, 2 Mk1's (one was a naples red, modded valver) and a Mk2 Phase 2, non RS but modded in metallic blue. I pulled up in my gf's racing blue 182!! :D :D Also spotted S20 CUP on a Clio 172 Cup in the same car park about 10 minutes later!!!

Not really 'VS' but some pics of my Megane 225 and my girlfriends Clio 182 Cup. Took em a couple of weeks ago but hadn't got round to posting em up :D - Tried to get some good ones of both cars and surprised myself with a couple of up my a*se arty ones!! haha :lol:

Got a friendly flash from a Clio 172 owner, driving a dark blue (can't recall the exact colour) with silver tail lights! :D I was driving my gf's racing blue/gordini striped 182 at the time. Would have responded but went passed before I managed to!! lol

Just thought I'd put a couple of pics up of the MEGANE badge removed from the back of the car. Took a bit of *****ing about, bearing in mind the M snapped in half!! lol But got em off in the end. Used a top tip from a mate at work and pulled dental floss under em, then just rubbed the...

Right here's the question. My gf has the 182 Cup (pic below) and is in two minds about the racing stripes. She's worried that they draw a bit too much attention to the car and is kinda worried about someone damaging it, so wondered whether she should take the stripes off. My argument is...

I put a post on here a while back about my gf getting a totally mint 05 reg 182 Cup with gordini stripes. She seems to be really enjoying the car getting into owning a performance motor. (old car was a 106 Quicksilver) And guess what..........some useless pr!ck scraped it in her work...

Right, read some stuff about that Supaguard stuff!! Had a similar thing on my Clio 172 but didn't fancy paying £200+ on getting the Megane done. So, went on e-bay and got me this -...
