Ok, at first I wasn't going to post this video because of all the silly comments made by my brother in the passenger seat. What can I say, my bro is a bit of a joker!! :o
I apologise for his language too! :o
However, a good day was had at Bedford... I'd never been on a trackday before and I...
Was talking to someone who was getting their diesel re-mapped and wondered if anyone had got their Clio Dci100 mapped?
Just curious as to how much power can be had from the diesel unit, looking at the figures they should go well with a few mods!
One of my new headlights keeps misting up and I can't really think of a solution to the problem. I've heard that if they mist-up there's not alot you can do.
Someone suggested I took the car to the dealers and complained, but although they are regular Clio headlights they weren't the ones...
Bought some Renaultsport decals from Jase a while back but recently decided I was getting bored of them so I yesterday I took them off. I was never too sure about the stickers and I got mixed views on here, personally I think it looks cleaner without them. :)
My brother brought his HD video camera with him on our trackday at Bedford this weekend. The videos play back fine on the camera itself but since I uploaded them from the SD card onto my laptop they won't play, it says something about requiring the right 'codec'. I don't know anything about this...
I've got the new headlights on, dead chuffed tbh! Also, I've removed the CLIO badge from the bootlid. Thanks to Laura for sorting me out with the lights. :)
A couple of quick pics from my sh***y camera lol
I'm thinking of changing the exhaust...
Good idea?
Bad idea?
Opinions...
Also, are there noticable power gains to be had... or is it just noisier??
I'd love a ride in one so I could see the difference!!! :D
I can get my hands on a MK5 R32 if I want it, and I can afford it!
Hmmm, I wonder!
I love my 197 to bits, but... an R32!!
Opinions?
Has anyone driven one/owned one?
I've bought some new headlights from a member off here, I wanted the darker style lights to go with the red and black theme on my 197. :)
The lights I've bought are the cornering lights, and I was just wondering if I'll have any problems fitting them. Will it be a simple swap for the new...
Had my 197 on the rollers Saturday morning, came out with 202bhp with 148Lb/ft of torque!! Well chuffed!! :D
I know that rolling roads don't always give an accurate reading, but after the guy told me it was running sweet and that Clio's don't usually make their expected figures I was dead...
Was browsing the net last night and saw K-Tec carbon bonnet for the 197.
Just wondered what people thought of it, I quite like it and think it might go well with the black wheels.
I'm thinking it might look a bit too 'Fast and the Furious' or are mods like these socially accepted these days...
Hey guys, just fitted a Pioneer head unit in the 197 but was dissappionted to discover despite being ipod compatable it won't charge the damn thing!!! :mad:
Is this due to the head unit itself, or maybe the ipod lead??
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!! :)

Just lately I've seen loads of Clio Sports and Megane Sports around Cannock and the surrounding areas. All different colours too, but mainly Iceburg silver.
No idea where all these cars are coming from, anyone on here cruising the streets of cannock-cester-shire???
As I mentioned a while back I've been looking to buy a cheap car to use for track days to save any damage and unecessary wear and tear on my 197.
I originally set about looking for a mk1 Clio and browsed the pages of PistonHeads looking for a suitable car, to which I had little success.
Word...
While you guys were karting I went outside and took some pics, I'm not quite used to the camera yet - so bear with me! :)
Sorry, but the karting pics didn't come out very good so I didn't upload them! :o
So, in no particular order here are the pics...!!
I'm sorry if this is a repost, but I don't have a clue with computers and my internet has slowed down a fair bit since I bought it last year...
There is bugger-all on it too.... no music, videos etc...
What is slowing it down, and what can I do?
thanks

It was in the carpark, I'm assuming it is being serviced.
I do love racing blues, this one had cup stickers on the rear quarter and looked rather nice! :)
My brother is an ameuter photographer, and has kindly given me his old camera - a Canon 300D. I've only been used to poverty-spec digi-cams until now, so all the extra buttons and switches mean nothing to me yet! lol
I had a little play with it today after I'd given my car a good polish :)...
