I need to insure my renault 5 for a few weeks whilst I get it on the road and sell it etc, any ideas where I could do this?

Anyone else looking forward to the release of GT5 prologue at the end of this month?? 16 player online multiplayer, full 1080p 60fps HD ... I'm buying a PS3 just to play this - looks AWESOME! Question: Should I get a 40gb or a 60gb ps3, and why are people paying a fortune for the 60gb ones...

How much for an engine and manifolds etc? Im thinking to put one in a renault 5 turbo as they bold straight onto the renault 5 gearbox apparently... Just need a running block and ecu and a bit of bodging to make it fit tight..

I remember ages ago on the RTOC website seeing an article about 5 turbos having a problem where the starter motor just makes a clicking noise and doesnt turn over sometimes, but it was fixed by changing some relay or something, wasn't the actual motor.. can anyone help me out?... I dont wanna...

Left me the keys for his motor :)... happy days.

I had a 172 cup from new until my son arrived 8 months ago then I had to switch to a family scenic ... Anyway, just checked out the photos etc of the new 197 and I can't believe Renault have taken what I considered "the best" hot hatch available and basically fucked it all up... Here's...

I'm wondering if anyone here can get me a discount on some door stickers for my renault 5 turbo :P I need part number 7701205887

Righty, I've got a minter 5 turbo which I keep garaged in the winter and drive in the summer. I'm the 2nd owner from new, the previous keeper was a lady in her 50's who owned it from new since 1989. She sold it as she had a shoulder problem and the doctors told her she needed a car with power...

sorry, but the more I see the "new" clio.. the more it just reminds me of a shitty pug 206 with a renault badge on it... long live the 172 cup (the best "clio" ever made imo!).. renault have cocked up on this occasion I think.

I'm doing a website for my uni project and i'm really crap with graphics, I need someone to improve my mspaint.exe banner !! please help me :(!!

yup, traded it in for the scenic, deal complete today... my last ever drive in my cup :-( ... need a family car, baby now etc. I know i'll miss it.... hopefully when the time comes in the next year or so and I get a job again (year out doing msc), i'll be able to get another good car...

Right, After much discussion and phone calls today, i've managed to renegotiate the deal to be as follows:- my 172 cup 03 plate 24k miles, serviced etc. -for- scenic 1.4 authenique 53 plate with 7k miles, just serviced etc, plus 1yr left warranty + option to extend for £120 for a...

03 plate with 24k just serviced.. totally standard etc.. been offered £6200 trade in against an 04 scenic with 9k on the clock costing £8995 ... what do u think? am i being robbed? or does it seem a fair deal. *edit* oh yeh, and the 2700 difference ive been offered on their finance at...

Right, You might be aware my cambelt snapped at 24,000 miles.. got the car back from Renault last week, they fitted a new cylinder head etc... Anyway, since getting it back, both myself and my girlfriend have noticed a sort of... quiet rattling sound which comes from the engine around...

*NOTE TO FORUM MODS* - this is not a racing tale, it's a car comparison discussion. Had some blonde lass behind me from the lights today in what I think was a megane 225, not sure whether it was the new model or the old, but she was sitting right on my bumper as we pulled away normally...

:Update: Got my car back, complete with new cylinder head and service. Seems to be running ok, I took it for a quick "test drive" tonight once I got home (had to get the baby and g/f out the car etc), and it seems as powerful as it was, if not maybe a bit tighter as it hits the 5k mark...

Right, got my cup in for service.. gets a call saying that the bad news is i need both front and rear pads... £170 ... I told them just to do the service (as the only reason i do it through them anyway is to keep the warranty)... but am I right in thinking to stuff the pads and fitting...

I posted a few days ago to say my engine died on the motorway... Anyway, just spoken with renault now and they've confirmed that the cambelt has indeed snapped (due to the auxillary belt tearing off also), and that they are going to remove the head to have a look at the damage... They've...

Right, where do i start ... basically at about 12000 miles i had my power steering pump replaced, i was told it was faulty when i went for my first service... not long after, the auxillery belt started to frey around the edge, so i booked it back in and got it replaced under warranty...

ive had my cup for 2 years, and despite using "wonder wheels", theres brakedust etc in the corners which just refuses to come off.. i want them to look like they rolled off the production line again... any suggestions?

Anyone from here? I joined the spine road as you went past and we both floored it.. i was in 172 cup, you were in silver 182 with private reg...

Ok, Ive noticed if I go over any bumps with my car turned on full lock to the right, theres a strange knocking sound as the suspension is put to use.... anyone got any ideas? Ive had it for months but because I rarely have to drive over bumps on full lock ive not bothered to get it...

Sigh, Ok... as you might or might not know, I bought a minter on ebay, 1 previous lady owner etc etc... totally standard.. Anyway, I got it MOTd and taxed this week as its spent its life so far in my garage waiting for the hot summer weather... After driving it about a few days ago I...

Hi, ok, before anyone asks - im aware of rtoc.org, but i dont want to pay £10 just to ask a question... Ok, the cars been off the road for the winter, i decided to get it MOTd today, so charged up the battery, started it up etc, no problems... took it to get some petrol, no 4* or LRP...

I bought a 5 turbo on ebay 7 months ago which hadnt been advertised very well. After probing a bit with questions I was lucky enough to get a minter for £1500 which had a 50+yr old lady owner from new, with FULL history... and when I say full history, I mean EVERY receipt from new. The...
