In the year and a bit since Ive had my 172 Ive only had one aknowledgment from another Clio driver, in fact it was a Clio Cup driver. But what is it with all the Renaultsport drivers who just ignore other Renaultsport drivers!?!?! You give them a nod or a friendly flash and they look at you...

Ebay is another good place to get some. My missus got some for her Zetec-S, they were being sent from Germany or somewhere. I havent seen another Fiesta with these exact lights anywhere, they even came with new bulbs in, as the lights inside were in different positions to standard. All for...

What year did Renault introduce that as standard??

Saw a bog standar Mk1 beaten Clio with a young lady driving it. Bad thing about it was the RenaultSport sticker on the back window?!!?!? :confused: You know what, I wasnt convinced it was a real one! lol

Dunno how when its got 172 bumpers, fully colour coded and bigger arches?!?! :confused:

Does this look particularly bad??? (Its my car by the way lol) http://server3.uploadit.org/files/alexjmills-CLio_172_2_2005.jpg

I personally reckon smoked black Lexus style on a black clio would look cool. Alson silver on a cup probably works coz its a light colour anyway.

I think with the Lexus lights you have to be careful what car you put them on. Ive seen them on Mk1 Clios that are green or blue and they look rubbish coz they dont suit the colour of style. I personally think on a silver car they dont look too bad and as an alternative to the standars...

Could try http://www.k-tecracing.comwww.k-tecracing.com Not many people on here like these lights, I have some on my silver 172 and I think they look as good as the standard light but different. Have a look at this site though mate coz they have some LED ones as well as some other...

I hate people that rate themselves with how fast their car is. I met a guy with a Lancia Delta with 250bhp and every car was sh*t except his as far as he was concerned. As tempting as it is to race the Porche just tell him to stop being a muppet and stop being so keen to make up for blatantly...

Is it therefore cost cutting rather weight saving? Also how to they replace the wiper sensor when they change your screen? I assume it just comes of the screen??

Ahhhh the aircon haha!! I had no idea the Cup windscreens were different, such a minor thing I wouldnt have thought they would bother. Whats the difference in weight? By the way in response to the above it wont affect your no claims if you get a new screen, I claimed for one on my old car...

Thats the one, there aint many of the Renaulsports around especialy the MK2 V6s.

I would have thought that some of the wiring would be for the side air bags and the other would be for the seat belt tensioners!! :confused:

Didnt think of the ABS as mine often does it but only when Ive first started the car!!! Makes sense really. doh! :D

Bit of a dodgy wiring job there, bloody Renault. Take it to them and tell them to neaten it up!!! lol

Have a look at the TSW pace wheels, I think they are a fresh looking multispoke and suit all cars. I personally like some of the Wolfrace wheels and if you look around youll get a set for that price, with tyres as well!!

I cant see how they could tell it to do 999 clicks anway!! :confused: Surely if it break it breaks, the key on my old X plate Clio stopped pressing after about a year. Button on it was faulty. Hope you get it sorted though mate. :D

Thats why my mum has only ever driven my car once with me next to her haha. Having said that my mum got alloys for the first time last year and she has refrained from kerbing completely.

Thats quality!! :D

I really hate pigeons, I think I should find out if you are allowed to shoot them coz they are definately vermin!!! When I did my bit and ran run over it walked straight under the wheel of my old Clio. I squished it flat like a pigeon pancake. I think we should start a club within...

Sorry to hear that mate, f*cking annoying and what a pain. Keep an eye out mate coz the thick c***s will probably stick it on some random car like a Nova. If you see it, give em a good shoeing and nick it back!! :@

Was out with the missus yesterday and spied a very battered and badly modded escort. Now my missus drives a subtely modded Fiesta Zetec-S with Scorpion exhaust and induction kit, and therefore sounds kinds cool. Get to some traffic lights and all three of them are staring our way. She puts...

I have exactly the same kind of problem with my 172. When youre pulling off, say first thing and as you lift the clutch steer a little it kinda clicks. I actually reported to Renault and they replaced the steering column but to be honest it still happens and Ive heard of similar cases.

I hate birds sooo much for that. There are certain parking spots where a gan of rebelious pidgeons must hang out trying to crap on cars. I ran a pidgeon over once and it was a very satifying experience!!!

There is me out there mate!! Its ok Im a youthful 22 year old, 17s, ICE and 666 on the number plate. Keep an eye out for me :D

Absolutely. lol You can tell some people have bought the car because they know its fun, fast and one of the best hatches. Others buy it coz they want a small car and its got leather seats, I keep seeing these people. Ive given a knowing nod to about 3 different ones and gets blanked every...

Im sitting at a really awkward junction where people always block the exit. Spied a silver 03 plate 172 and thought ooh he might let me out, the driver was a right miserable old git. Middle aged, balding guy who was insistent he wasnt going to let anyone in front of him and was edging forward...

He obviously had a moment of inferiority in his car haha. I mean lets face it the main reason why the Pug Rallys are quick is coz there is bugger all to them! lol

Sound a bit of an unjustified comment. They arent up there with the 172s but they are nippy enjoyable cars. Also dont have the same insurance cost, running cost and dont cost as much to buy!!
