    Cup prices, shocked!

    Oh, and it means they've lost something like 45% in 3 yrs, isnt that about average?

    Cup prices, shocked!

    I was offered £7200 for my fatty 172, 53plate on 29k. Remember the cup was 2k odd less at POS, so it will show in the resale. Just because we know its a very capable track car, doesnt mean Joseph Public does.

    On the rev limiter or not at top speed?

    I said the light was on. Keeping in mind we were travelling at this speed for a few miles and didnt lift off as soon as we realised we were near 140mph, it doesnt happen straight away. Plus, some of the earlier cars dont have the change light anyway. I'll take a picture in a few weeks ;)

    172 service intervals and prices?

    Multiples of 12k, every 3rd one being the major one. Think 72k is THE service though and it costs alot. Costs vary from £110 upto £250 for the minor sevice depending on dealer and whether you supply own oil, have induction kit/filter etc.

    brick wall

    While the bumpers in, get the bump strips, door handles and mirrors done

    Which Induction Kit? TOO HOT UNDER THE BONNET!

    ITG or Green panel filters in the std box is the way ahead. TBH, nothing you put on singularly will show any difference, its all placebo until remapped in conjunction with other mods.

    Has any one told a fib on their insurance?

    Petrol!

    Not in my experience, hence sticking to Optimuck. I'd hate to think what the 99/102 would return on a trackday, optimax returned 11mpg.

    Petrol!

    At 50mph, optimax will get you 50mpg+, 70mph you'll get 40ish and at 80 its around 35mpg. 99 & 95Ron always fuels seem to drop the MPG. At £2 per litre 102ron is at little expensive for casual driving, it would cost £90 for a tank full and i doubt the clio would see much benefit.

    Clio 172 Cup?

    3PFT? £900 insurance seems like a great deal. Is it renault service, how much warranty has it got left, will it need new pads soon, car park dings?

    Best setup

    DO NOT BUY 6X9's! Amp, Sub and front components is all you need. A cheap place on the net is incarexpress.com

    What size tyres on a 172 cup?

    205/40's work as well. Best off sticking to the 205/45's PE2's or GSD3's. Both highly rated

    Which air filter is best for performance??

    From my experience, the ITG had no noticable gains in power and very little in the way of noise. People claim they rev freer, but that might just be placebo. Best way of looking at it is they might be a little better than std, and will last many times more. Basically paying for themselves.

    Servicing Madness!!!

    I'll check the thread Ed put together. 24k is just oil and filters again Very steep though mate

    doeas a ph1 172 need a spoiler??

    Bag of sand will do the job. Same as the old 5T's, all the weight is in the front and the rear has little to it.

    Top Gear - Clio 197 Review

    Knee pads and industrial lipbalm! The same as the dealers are going to need to shift it at £4k more.

    cup brake compensater?

    As per renault on the RS forum, the car Does not have or need one. If the Test station fails it, advise them there is something in their handbook regarding the cup (or the other option is to get 2 people in the back and it should pass then) lol

    Sloppy Gear changes and crunching into 3rd!

    Its crap isnt it. Probably the porridge engine mounts letting the engine move to much

    If your holding for orange.....

    Dont bother, sounds like one of the main servers has crashed with a huge number of customers now without service. Me being one of them.

    Any way of bypassing rain sensors?

    The basic models have the 'normal' intermittant stalks without the functionless adjuster. Surely you can just buy the basic one and replace the pointless one?

    fuel use on track (fcs)

    What Exhaust?

    ITG Panel Filter

    For the money they are the best thing out there. What ever the marginal gains, the long life justify the cost. Slighty freer revving might have just been placebo though (for everyone, including myself).
