    Silver Mk1 172, Topsham Road, Exeter

    As per the title, seemed to be a female driver but didn't get that good a look to be honest...

    Cleaning Viper I/K

    Bit of a stupid question, but none of my previous cars have ever had an IK on them and this one was fitted when I bought it, so what's the best way to clean them out? It's a standard PiperX Viper with a cold air feed in the fog light pod...

    Mk1 172 decat?

    Where's the best place to get one? I was hoping to hear back from Fred@Yozza, but nothing so am assuming they're unable to make one up. Speaking to the local Powerflow monkey, he was loathed to make one due to the current Cat layout, saying that making a cheap decat would be more hassle than...

    Calling all LCD TV guru's

    I've shortlisted my LCD TV purchase to the following models, all highly rated by What Plasma & LCD TV magazine, so I'm sure I'll be happy with whatever I choose, but has anyone had any experience with any of the following models? Viewsonic N3760W Toshiba 32WLT66 Sharp LC-32GA8E (not...

    14bhp from an I/K

    Just been looking through all the paperwork that came with my car and there's some RR results from a local garage that the previous owner had done. Now, I know that the figures aren't reliable in themselves, but the results show: Before I/K fitted: 140bhp @ wheels (6000rpm) - 182bhp @ fly...

    Wheel refurbing?

    Anyone know whether it would be wise to go to someone who refurbishes wheels by first dunking them effectively in an acid bath to completely strip them, and then refurb? Apparently someone does it local to me and it reduces costs... :S

    Rear lights on...

    Will get some better pics after a clean this afternoon, but you get the idea. My ass is looking very 182-esque! :D

    Bloody Mk2 lights!

    I should've expected this from Clio rear lights! I'm in the process of trying to change my ph1 lights to ph2, and can remove the old lights comfortably, but can't for the life of me get the little 'pins' up to change over the wires, I've tried pulling the wires and also dislodging the metal...

    Tucks?

    My missus reckons she saw you in the Willy in Pinhoe, Exeter yesterday, by the small double rounabouts... was it you?

    Decat for Ph1 172?

    Where's the best place to get one from and how much should I expect to pay? Had a search on Yozza but they only seem to do them for the later RS's.

    Phase 2 rears on my phase 1

    Right, I've got as far as exposing the wires and L shaped metal connectors, but I can't remove these from the block... do I just need some brute force?

    LCD TV's...

    What do people recommend, with a budget of about £700? I'd ideally like to go bigger than 30" but obviously open to suggestions if I can get better quality slightly smaller...

    Just a few FCS pics... inc "The night before"

    Arriving at Lutterworth... A walk into 'town'... The walk back from 'town' (sorry Chris!)... Just a few show shots... A good day had by all.

    Alex @ Serious Performance

    Thanks a lot mate! :D Kind of ordered on Tuesday, changed my order on Wednesday, items arrived Thursday, I collected them from the Post Office today. Can't wait to get them used now...

    How much would you pay for Mk2 Ph2 rear lights?

    Just wondering because I was after a set before next weekend but haven't had much luck on Ebay. A guy local to me wants £45 for a set, but this seems a bit steep... what has everyone else paid for a set?

    Cheap but decent SLR's?

    I'm considering getting an SLR camera soon and getting back into photography a little bit, nothing serious though. Just wondering what everyone recommends... I don't even know my price bracket yet, so what do people suggest for £100, £200, £300, £400, etc?

    Polishing the metal 'Renault'

    There's been a few posts from people who've polished up the complete plenum / manifold on here, and it looks painstakingly great.... I'm wondering how long it would take to just do the 'RenaultSport' part, ie easily accessible and look cool against the matt steel. Being such a small area...

    Thought I'd better run my intentions past the detailing peeps...

    Just going to order some bits and pieces from Serious Performance, to try some new, better, products than my trusty old NXT wax! What do people think to: P21s Concours Look Carnauba Paste Wax. Clearkote Quik-Shine. Poorboy's Spray and Wipe Quick Detailer, for shows, etc when a full wash...

    Bumper fixed

    For those that know the car at all, I've had a nagging hole beside one of the exhaust cut-outs since I bought her in September. I got it sorted out today and am really pleased with the results. Before: After: :)

    Ordering stuff via Serious Performance?

    What's the best way to get an order to 'Serious Performance'? I don't really fancy sending off a cheque... can I bank transfer or Paypal?

    Pics of Ph-Quick 172 on Prolines?

    Anyone got any shots of their Ph1 172 on Eibach Prolines, preferably before and after? I know it doesn't lower the car by much but I just want to see whether it evens up the front and rear a bit and how the wheels sit in the arches. Cheers. :)

    Brake dust on wheels...

    I'm going to have a go at getting off all the seriously ground in brake dust on my wheels today... what's the best way to go around it? This stuff is seriously stuck on so is going to need some persuasion!

    P21S with OCW?

    I suppose this is mainly aimed at Rich, but if anyone knows then please feel free to butt in... Is it worth buying both P21S and the Optimum Car Wax and applying one after the other, or will the OCW sealant effectively do the job of the P21s as well, and vice versa?

    Silver Mk1 172's in Exeter....

    Well, there's currently one parked in my residents' car parking, with a kiddies seat in the back, so I think I'll leave a little Cliosport message on their windscreen! And I passed one in Pinhoe earlier... gave a flash but couldn't see if the person waved back.

    Podcasts on a Nano?

    How do you get Podcasts onto an Ipod Nano? I know obviously you can't do videos, but I can't seem to even get Chris Moyles on there... I've updated via ITunes and tried dragging and dropping, but no luck it seems...

    Slight update...

    Only a DIY spray job, so not amazing quality, but I love the improved subtle look over the black strips. Whatcha think? :)

    Bloody Renault exhausts!

    There I was, 70 miles from home, trundling to an interview in plenty of time, when my car becomes very, very 'boomy'. I think nothing of it, after all, I've been doing motorway miles and the exhaust always sounds louder once I'm back to low revs... Until I hear that fateful sound of exhaust...

    Removing bump strips

    Before I rip off the side bump strips and replace with my sprayed ones... what's the best way to remove them? Do they unclip or have I got to slide them in a particular direction!?! :S
