So, the plan was to buy an old 'dub for my surfing advertures... however money isn't on my side at the moment so had to make do with the Clio. Went to Cornwall again this weekend, first time I took my own car so here's some pics. 512 miles, 34mpg, average 45mph with a full boot and the boards on...

All within 10 minutes of eachother heading towards Burley today around 12:30... Black non cupped 182 Silver cupped 182 - waved and flashed Blue cupped 182 looked lowered.

Anyone know if the Mk2 Clio key is waterproof? I'm stuck for what to do with it when out in the sea...

im after some seat covers for the front 2 seats in the 182. Ive tried halfords ones but they don't seem to be big enough to fit around the side supports in the seats. What do people use? Just after something waterproof for when I'm away surfing. pics?

Just been out in the car for my lunch break... and like you do, started pulling things apart. Came across these little hatches in the front footwell trim, O/S and N/S are the same. What are they for? Just appears to be a big hook in there.

worth changing the water pump while the cambelt is being done? I've read it several times on here but don't actually know if it's just another CS 'must do'...?

Parked right outside my house this morning in Southbourne, Mk2 v6 in blue.

Followed you into Thorpe Park this morning and parked right next to you, Inferno 182. Who was it?

Need 3 of my 182 wheels doing... been putting it off for far too long. Anyone local recommend anywhere in the Bournemouth area who can do this with a relatively quick turnaround?

Hello, Seems every time I use the aircon in my car it makes the windscreen greasy after a short while. Why, I don't know... but I'm a fussy b*****d and if there's 1 part of my car I insist on being clean it's the windows. Outside is sorted, I use AG Glass Polish stuff and AG fast glass...

Been on hold to o2 now for 12 mins and I've given up. Am I right in thinking that now I have used my o2 PAC code on my new Orange contract, my o2 contract is automatically cancelled?

Looks to me like a cracker of a phone... anyone had any experience with it yet? Just waiting for o2 to release it... could be waiting a long time :(

My emissions light came on today while out and about, it was flashing and lasted about 30 seconds before going off. Standard 182. French piece of s**t...? Or is there something wrong somewhere?

Every time I browse through the hundreds of pics of my old Ph1, these 2 always put a smile on my face. This car was as mint as they get, and I was an idiot for downgrading to the 182. Lesson learnt... someone find me Y697 HWE, its out there somewhere and it's a peach! Just thought I would...

Hi I have an unlocked Sony w890i from Vodafone. It's still got the vodafone branding and software on the phone... How do I get rid of it? Thanks.

Silver v6 potted at the roundabout on Christchurch DC today around 7:30pm. Road presence? You could say that! lol

Ive noticed a bit of play at the top of the clutch pedal's travel before it actually starts releasing the clutch. The pedal also sits slightly higher than the brake pedal. Is there an easy way of taking up the slack in the clutch cable?

Has anyone experienced the o2 Simplicity 1 month tarrifs? I think I'm going to go for this one, as my phone is fine at the moment (K850i 18 months old). With the 1 month contracts am I correct in thinking you can upgrade with a months notice? So if my phone breaks, I can just upgrade to a...

I've been driving modified clio's for 6 years now. Firstly my 1.4 16v, then my Ph1 172, and up until now my 182. Over the last month I've returned the 182 back to standard, removing all modifications. I'll be honest and say I'm enjoying it more now then ever before! Taking the exhaust and...

As promised, a few pics of the new motor. Its an immaculate, fully loaded 2005 1.4 16v Dynamique with every option :approve: Also gave the 182 a quick clean today as the sun was shining. and one with the old man's laguna thrown in, too

Not really sure what they're called, so I'll call it the rear seatbelt hook. Basically the small plastic hook thats in the top corner of the rear seats surrounding the seat release button, which secures the seatbelts. Mine was snapped clean off last night... :( can these be bought seperately...

Bored, I decided to dig out the engine cover from the attic. I took it off the day I bought the car, as they're a complete waste of time and just get in the way when trying to work in the engine. However, I painted it anyway. Need to give the bay a proper clean before I fit it, as its covered...

How's best to clean these and re-oil them? Do I really have to buy the special kit for it?

This evening in the monsoon on the M27... A nice Nimbus 197 with Xenons :approve:

Spotted Silver Mk1 v6 heading north up the A34 this afternoon. Looked lovely! Pretty sure the driver looked over and saw me playing with an .:R32 heading south :o

Saw a Blue 197, somewhere in Cardiff (I was lost) on Saturday afternoon. 2 blokes inside checking out the filthy Inferno 182 :approve:

Standard 05 1.4 16v Dynamique spec in Ottoman Blue... but with the following options: Xenons Climate 6 disc changer Can't be many around with every box ticked? I'm off to pay for it in a bit :) I always thought climate was standard, but it appears not.

Im due an upgrade in a few weeks, on o2. As much as I would love the iPhone I don't want a £40 contract. I like my phones simple, stylish and must have good battery life (I would hate charging it every day). Was looking at the Nokia 6500 classic, however I've heard bad things about the...

Nimbus R27 at Castlepoint, Bournemouth yesterday (saturday) afternoon. Followed you up the road, then around the bloody carpark looking for the elusive space to park! Hi.

Having trouble with my horn, it doesn't work. I get a tiny little 'peep' if I sit there and press/wiggle the buttons lots of times. I've had the airbag off and cleaned up the horn connectors etc... How do I get to the horn to check that end, does the bumper need to come off?
