;) Sorry, I'm absolutely useless with mechanics, how do I get the calipers out of the way :o Thanks!

Bump.. I'm needing to chanhe my wheel bearings on the rear, I'm just wondering though. As above, is it just the one big nut holding the whole disk/bearing on? I've got a whole new kit ready pressed top go on. Is it just a case of pulling it off and putting the new one on? Thanks.

I get this aswell! Rather annoying but after reading this then ill try tightening it up tonight :)

172 needs both rear wheel bearings + discs and pads and abs rings.Heater module pack is goosed so the heating is on full power.Buckled alloy wheelSmashed foglight with smashed bulbNo sidelightsScuffed front and rear bumpersEngine mounts are shaggedAir con radiator thing is held up by cable ties...

Bet its worth every penny when you race someone that thinks its standard though :p

What a minter! The best sleeper! How much have you spent on it Vicky?

Yeah looks good but as above, those stickers are chav

nevermind...

Let me know if you ever get anything sorted! I'd like to strip the clio but i dont want to do it unless ive got some sort of cover!

Car looks Ace. swap you 2003 172 :P

I'd have to say 7.5/10 for the 172. Bought it a few months ago for £1700 and ive spent £1400 in renault so far. Not the cars fault, Just belts etc etc. Ive got a few other bits to get done before i can say 10/10. but as for everything else, like getting 49mpg from a 2.0 16v hot hatch! Cant...

Yeah sorry, i meant my light comes on in my car.... sometimes :l

I see. yeah changing the wheel size alters the speedo too i think. cant be that far off it though, and from a 1.5 derv, thats great :D

Sorry what? 140mph in a 1.5 diesel? What sort of map is on it :o

My car sometimes does this on its own. You can start the ccar one day and it will be fine, then the next day it will rev itself :l The little light comes on, its like the squiggle line in the middle of the dash? Sometimes it revs to3k then falls down again...

I find it funny to use this feature to annoy people trying to get in :p Mrs hates it xD

Wait.. Isn't that about 135mph or there abouts?

Nice, what top speed is that in MPh? :o

When it goes well instead of coughing and spluttering then I know its warm! Put your foot down in 1st when its cold and its like a 1.2 :p

So strange... after posting my previous comment, i went out and i was on the main road... car infront is turning in and theres a car waiting to pull out at the junction. car infront turns in and the dozy old b**ch at the junction pulled out RIGHT infront of me. i had to swerve into the...

I donr mind old people, just meaning these 2 old people. Just imagine the accident they could cause, if they think the railway is the bloody road!!

There was an old lady in my are done this in her brand new fiesta last year! Stupid old b******s

Any one on here?

I had this problem in my 1.2. Foglights are pointless anyway so it doesn't matter :p

i'd like to say polishing... but in the 4-5 months ive owned it, ive only polished / waxed it once. and washed it about 3 times. which is very little as i used to wash my 1.2 everytime i got a chance, sometimes 3 times in 1 day. Need to get my front bumper resprayed before i can polish it...

Re: Clio Bargins. Crikey, how did you manage that? Nice one. I've never had anything at a good price. When I sold my old 1.2 i only lost 150 over the 2 years I owned it, bought it for 1000 and sold it for 850.

172 cup looks perfect! The carbon diamonds will finish it off nicely.

No such thing as a ff 172 :p

Wider? How come?

Ah I see. What's so hardcore about the 172 that isn't in the 182? Suspension or what? 172 cup>trophy? :p
