I love these things coz they really are a way for the stupid f*ckers who think bling is cool but yet a 100th of the price. If you drive round Croydon youll see these at least once. Lets face it, if you cant afford alloys which some people cant dont emphasis the fact that you have hubcaps!! lol

I think the autolights are a nice touch but no essential. I do find sometimes when I would otherwise put my side lights on the autolights stay off. Othertimes when you go under a bridge they suddenly switch on. I like them as a feature though, and lets face it Xenons look cool!! lol

Mate of mine just bought a J reg MR2 2.0ltr (normally aspirated) with 120,000 on the clock and its going strong!! He got his for £1800 which considering the electic toys, air con, leather interior is a bargain.

I tend to put my foot on the clutch out of habit, my driveway is a slight hill so its often in gear. Chris, how come you never use the handbrake?

As said before, totally depends on the woman in question. My missus is to some extent a petrol head so I would trust her, even though she doesnt trust herself. But if shes the kind of girl who thinks that the rear view mirror is used to apply lipstick and that it is acceptable to drive a pink...

I really hate people that make stuff up or think they know something when its a completely pile of arse!! Should of asked him to take you for a spin then just exclaimed This is b****cks, glad I didnt waste my money on this over my 182!!!! That would have made him look sheepish. Alsos...

Good point!! lol Thing is my missus has never kerber one of her own alloys and since my mum has got a focus with alloys shes never gone near a kerb either!! Funny thing was when I did let my missus drive my car she was so nervous it was untrue. Anyone would think Im paranoid about my car!!

I really dont see the appeal in putting a 2.0ltr badge on a 1.2. It must be pretty embarrassing to be honest!! No harm in styling your car like the RS versions as they look good. Worst Ive seen is a BMW 316 with Ferrari stickers on either side and Ferrari badges on the wheels. Now...

I dont actually let anyone drive my 172 even thought its insured under my mums name haha!! My missus is actually a really good driver and although her Zetec-S isnt as fast as the 172 she can throw it around like no bodies business, Id trust her over any of my mates driving my car. Depends...

I have just stepped through the door after a trip to our local Tesco, the type of people that come in are unreal. Some person had parked their car diagonally in a space but the biggest joke was the fact that is was actually against another car, the owner was standing there in utter disbelief...

Youll get a good example MK2 GTi for that price. Im not a fan of the Calibras to be honest but I havent driven one.

Happens to me all the time, Ive only ever had one reaction from a Clio Cup driver and thats coz he flashed me first!! A lot of RS drivers are not enthusiasts, therefore they dont notice other RS Clios. :confused:

Ive seen a Centurion screen that my mate has in his car and i was really impressed with the quality of it. Also should be able to get a discount as a mate of mine manages at one of the Motorworld stores.

Just wondered if anyone had some pics of where they had mounted a screen in a Clio. I have my eye on a DVD player and screen. I planned to have the DVD player under one of the seats and the screen sat in the space under the climate control. Any thoughts????

I find my mpg goes down more when you get stuck in traffic rather than if you drive hard. I normally get about 32-34 miles per gallon but if I get stuck in traffic it will drop to about 28!!

Cant quite imagine its 190bhp somehow!! May sell on the merit that its a Silver 172 Cup which is pretty rare. Looks like its in good condition as well.

I assume thats on a private test track!!! ;)

I didnt notice a difference by putting 205/40/17s on my 172. I actually found that although the profile is lower because there was more tyre on a the road it gave a slightly less harsh ride. Not by much but definately noticed it. Just for looks I think its worth any tiny sacrifice in...

Followed me accross the traffic lights near Asda and then turned off just before Tattenham Corner (Epsom downs). Anyone on here??????

I wouldnt expect too much from a Renault dealer, it took them two test drives to try and fix a squeaky seat and they still didnt fix it. The funny thing is they noticed a knocking which I had bairly noticed, thought it was something in the car and they said it was the exhaust!! They fixed it...
