Check the exhausts mounts too. My centre exhaust mount was knackered and I use to get occasional knock.

Lovely looking motor but I can't help but notice you've got those horrible vredestein tyres fitted lol. Had them on my car a while ago and hated them.

Unfortunately you do get bad ones where Renault are concerned, mine's the same, something is always breaking and I hate to think how much money I've thrown at it getting it fixed. Is yours the car that had a major coolant leak?

How original :rasp: That car is disgraceful and LOL at the price. I imagine that car will be on their forecourt for a very long time.

When I pricing tyres up a while ago Camskill seemed to be the cheapest. Doubt I'd get anything other than Michi PE2s now for the Clio now.

You have to inform your insurance if you get points but I'm pretty sure it won't effect the premium until the renewal date.

Got to say I agree with the majority and think the before picture looked better. How did you find those Apex springs? Just they have a bad reputation on here.

Faulty starter motor?

Try and keep hold of it if it's financially viable because I'd imagine the resale price will have you feeling even sicker. I was in the same boat a few years with my 1st Cup, financial circumstances changed dramatically and I was forced to sell the car. Absolutely gutted watching it drive away...

Looking good mate, when you say you're getting a 172, are you going for a new car or doing the 172 conversion you was talking about at the last NW meet?

Looking sorry for it's self going off the pictures when Middo had it. Only 31 made? is that true?

I've dropped various fixings/bolts/nuts down there and unless I locate them there and then I've never seen them again lol.

Re: N/W Xmas Meet Just get there early and tamper with all the other karts ;) Win and reignite your dreams of being the next Jenson Button. :race:lol.

I had the exact same thing in a Zetec-S, only difference was it shook like an old washing machine anytime I accelerated. That was down to a knackered driveshaft

Re: N/W Xmas Meet Bit of a slow coach eh Ian :rasp: lol

Re: N/W Xmas Meet 13th would be ideal for me as it's a Sunday and I definitely won't be working.

Good pictures, by the way someone must really like boats :rasp: lol

Lovely morrisons bags in the boot, best bit of the car imo.

Think I'm glad I couldn't make this, going off the results and going off Jamie Rigby's ITB'd ZS, (ran my car on the same rollers as him a few weeks ago) mine would haven't got a good result lol. How many turned up to this anyway? according to the list there was meant to be alot going.

Ah reading fail, didn't notice you said 6 months in your OP.

I used a torque bit in a Dewalt cordless drill and they came out fine. I think the previous owner had removed the back seats though for his sound system, so when I came to remove them they hadn't had chance to rust up.

I had a similar issue but only on one wheel, overtime it settled down and leveled out, it still is slightly higher on that wheel though. Also check that all the springs are sat correctly.

How did you find those bolts that hold the isofix bar down? Mine came out nice and easy but alot of people have problems with them.

Sounds like when I test drove a Saxo VTS, those damn pedals. lol

Re: N/W Xmas Meet Daytona in Trafford Park? I've heard they're suppose to be quite pricey.

Re: N/W Xmas Meet Sounds like a plan, I wouldn't mind paintballing (never done that before) or karting. I'll be passing on the PizzaHut afterwards though, really don't like their food :dead: lol.

f**king hell, people will steal anything that's not nailed down. What have they done? come with a low loader or something?

If that's the case I'd imagine you'd need a new wheel or you'll just have to periodically tighten the nuts in question. I wouldn't put thread lock on the nuts though.

Won't play the video for me :S Edit: It's decided to play now, lol bet that copper was frustrated.

If you've got the funds to do it then why not? Most will say get a "1*2 it's pointless" but if doing the conversion doesn't hurt you financially then I'd go for it. Sleepers are immense when done properly.
