Renault gave me £200 after the ecu problem. Yet to receive anything for the gearbox problem but havent had a lot of time to push them hard about the rejection recently...

My Cup had a few problems and in the end RUK told me to reject it through the dealer. I tried that and the dealer responded that it didnt fall into the rejection category as outlined by RUK!! Hmmm.... Problems were: 2,500 miles - new clutch 5,000 miles new ecu 7,500 miles new gearbox...

Im 22 and have owned a big pile of w**k before the Cup so to me its fcuking excellent... :D

Loonys right - blasts from between 50mph right up to !30 see very little difference between the two cars (I do weigh a little more;))... The reasons I opted for the Cup is that I liked the colour, theres less of them about but most importantly - it was cheaper!!!!

Nice... Which ones is it I need to get??

Im intrigued by this as well... How do you get an address?

Unlucky with the gearbox. My clutch went at 2500 miles and its heading up to 5k now so Im a bit worried... Theyre rewarding when theyre working which makes it even more painful when theyreaway from you. Having said that RUK are sending me a cheque for £200 for my inconvenience (I had the shame...

Was that when you were chasing after me Nev?

Where can you get the ClioSport logo mats from?

Was it georges Nova that beat you? He trounced a CRX (I think it was) 2.0 last night! That Nova is far too quick. Im sure youll be up this way soon - you wont see Sammy otherwise... lol

I thought the final straw was getting beaten by a 1400 Polo!! Sorry couldnt resist but totally understand your decision - my Cup decided to break again on the way back from Cheltenham last night :( I hear youre progressing to a BMW - you pimp! :) When are you next out in Cheltenham?

Thanks for the piccy - They are quite bright but as you say it might break up all that grey Im currently looking at! George - I dont know how long youve had it but Ive done 4500 since i got mine at the start of March and the grin just wont go away! Now that Ive decided - does anyone know...

Im about to purchase the ClioSport mats for my Cup but was just wondering about the blue ones that were available. Do they match or just look a bit garish? Any feedback would be appreciated...

having a play with Christian - Be more careful with your wording next time mate! Hes right though - the two cars are just spot on the same (or do I have a slow one, or does he have a quick one or did the slight tail wind favour his car cos its slightly higher or d.... ;) )

I try and go down most weeks and am trying to start a small convoy from Oxford so just give me a shout and Ill be there (except the 25th May cos Im on hols!)

Nev - if you ever feel like heading up to Cheltenham again on a Sunday night then give me a shout and you can join the growing cruisesouthmids.co.uk convoy from Oxford!

teehee - I wont tell you how long Simon spent deciding who had to park where before any photos were taken!

Twas indeed a good meet. I dismiss any claims of driving like a nutter though - I felt I was very restrained. The 172 v Cup dual carriageway blast was interesting as there was absolutly no gain from either car right up to about 130 (although I did have a full tank and hadnt been to the toilet...

My Cup is quick. After just 2 weeks when I was kind of getting used to it, I was worried it wasnt as quick as I thought It should have been but I went for a spin in my old Y plate 1.2 16v. I used to think it was a quick car but it sure made me appreciate my Cup again! You do definately see a...

I did a three week trip around Europe last year and cover was obviously an issue. I shopped around and cant remember who I used in the end but I think it was Green Flag and It didnt cost me more than £15. Its definately worth checking out - sometimes you can combine things as well like they...

My g/friend drives my old Y plate 1.2 16v sport and I cringe every time she gets behind the wheel of it. I have to keep reminding myself of the fact that Ive given it to it her (the car that is!). She doesnt understand why I havent let her drive the Cup yet... I let my dad drive the cup last...

My current plate is Y 21 CBS (21st Bday pressie) The plate I want is MR 51 ADE (MR SLADE) but it sold recently for 5k so I may have to settle for CB 51ADE - which is only 2k I think! My names Christian Benjamin Slade BTW!

I dont know if anyone can help, but Im half tempted by a V6 style rear bumper for my new cup with the two exhausts. Does anyone know how much a new exhaust system coupled with this bumper will cost me or where to go to get one? Has anyone done it that has photos I could see? Any help or...

Isnt the membership number just the reg number? It always used to be...

Cheers, Do I need to be a member first? Poor pay and the new Cup has wiped me out for another month so wont be joining till April :-(

Wasnt there a sticky topic relating to some cliosport mats being produced. I may be being blind or stupid but can any one give me any details? Im very much looking for a set for my new cup :-)

Buy a Yaris...

All now definately clear... My cup is an 03 with clear repeaters, as is my mates 03 1.2 16V (Sales exec @ our local Renault garage company car). Not sure where your local dealer is buying their cars from cupsize?!!?

I picked up my new cup last week as well - good isnt it! :-) The little bit of trim doesnt come fitted to the car when delivered to the dealer for the reason you stated but its a bit of a poor show that they didnt pick up on it. Its supposed to idle at about that level so no worries there...

Optimax is the way forward and definately worth the extra 2/3p per litre
