    Quick question Re. insurance

    never know tell them and see if it brings down your policy. or actually it may put it up. i think it could be because if your married of have kids then your more likely to be carrying a passenger in the car, and people dont generally take as many risks when they have a passenger on board...

    clio dci range 80/100

    i expect the price of diesels to sky rocket because of petrol and tax and priced of big petrols to plumit especially if the trends continue. you will be hard pushed to find an 80, and harder pushed to find a 100, you could get a 65 in your sorta budget, and then a remap would put it a bit more...

    Do insurers check claims/convictions when setting up a policy?

    I'd declare it as they'd check with your previous insurers about claims/ncb, they may also just check all your details are the same.

    Fuel on a new shape clio :(

    i'm sure the mk3s have a bigger tank and possibly a bigger reserve, i think the reserve in my 1.2 is about a gallon and a half. leaving me about 65-70 miles in reserve. does the 2.0 have a larger reserve?

    renault parts overpriced

    my dad was quoted £8+vat for 2 lock bolts and 2 washers! bt renault do seem to take the preverbial when it comes to the price of parts. Perhaps its how they compensate for making their cars such value for money because when they go wrong they can shaft you with prices. i'll never buy a renault...

    On the "Extreme" models can you.........

    New the extreme was cheaper, in the renault spec structure extreme is below dynamique. new the 1.2 extreme 2 was £8500, new the 1.2 dynamique was £9k second hand the difference is still present. using parkers a53 plate extreme 2 is 3.5k and a 53 dynamique is 3.9k

    On the "Extreme" models can you.........

    extremes were the low spec "sport" models, the dynamiques is the one to go for. i thin it wa slike budget was authentique then expression, then luxury it was pivalege and intale, then sport was extreme and dynamique. but what I tend to find is alot if inconsistancy with extremes spec wise...
