Loving it mate, colour looks awesome.

Cheers mate, that's spot on. That's what I'm after, not the blue chav look, same as the 172/182's.

Ahhh thanks for that dude, is it just a straight swap over due to the lens? So I need to get Bulbs, ballasts and power pack?

Splitter will be on order next month. Not sure on the Spolier though, not sure If I like it or not.

It does have xenons, but you are right, not the standard ones, looking to upgrade the bulbs to whiter ones though.

Will be added soon, just waiting for my private reg paperwork to come through from the DVLA then will get some sorted! Does anybody know a decent wax to use on LY? Going to give it a good going over this weekend as it needs a clay!

Sent you a PM buddy.

Yer the spec is what I was after. Wanted it with xenons, wasn't too fussed about climate as I rarely use it so was a bonus.

Possibly my favourite thing, they're so comfy.

They're not I'm afraid.

Hi Well after 3 years and 2 Clio 172's, I decided to get myself a new car as money permitted. Was looking for an R27 and managed to get hold of one in my favourite colour, Liquid Yellow. So far I am so impressed with it, everything just seems so much better than my 172. The handling is just...

Just down the road then, I'm in Hinton. Did have a silver 172 but picked a Liquid Yellow 197 R27 yesterday.

Looks tidy, where abouts near Brackley are you?

Re: RenaultSport Nartional Meet Sunday 17th April 2011 Motor Heritage Centre-Warwicks What time are people going to Gaydon for this? Don't want to turn up to early or too late! Also with the parking, do you just get told where to go when you get there?

Re: RenaultSport Nartional Meet Sunday 17th April 2011 Motor Heritage Centre-Warwicks Not 100% sure I can come now, might be picking up my new car on that day.

Re: RenaultSport Nartional Meet Sunday 17th April 2011 Motor Heritage Centre-Warwicks Can you add me to the list please. Things going to plan, I will have some LY goodness to provide.

Hi Fred Was going to come and see you for a cambelt/de-phaser pully. Can you supply and fit Bilsteins? Have weighed up my options and for the extra money, Bilstein seem to be the best and most highly rated. As if you can supply and fit I will probably get these done at the same time.

I know they are not going to "comfy", what I mean was something that's not going to destroy my spine every time I hit a bump, my mate has some on his 172 cup, that are seriously bad! Should've explained that better really :o

Whats the height adjustment on the Bilsteins? Have heard good reviews on them, but from what I can see only lower by 20mm? The Borbet A situation is just an idea at the moment, I need to decide what I want to go for, Euro, or Track look, not decided yet.

Hi I have circa £600 to spend on some goodies for the 172, and was thinking of getting coilovers, as frankly, I find the standard shocks to made of cheese I have been through that many in 18 months! I want to the car to be low, but not stupid low, as eventually I am going to slap on some...

Ha I have no idea dude. That might be what it is. What position should it be in?

Hi Sorry if my grammar is rubbish, posting off my phone. Just fitted a new wiper mechanism, hooked up the motor and screwed into place. Bolted the wipers on and gave them a go. The drivers side wiper just goes down and the gets stuck. It goes up across the windscreen a few inches then...

+10000000 Forgot to mention that, did mine at the weekend and last night, without a wiper puller, tested my calm to say the least!

Just read the thread after meeting you last night Chris. Jeeeeeesus you've done a lot of work, but to be fair seeing it in the flesh it really does show, has inspired me to spend some more monies on mine now. Cheers for the part and great to meet you!

Hi Mate You need to remove the windscreen wipers, then remove the black trays that sit below the windscreen. The Washer bottle is on the passenger side and I think it's one or two screws. They crack fairly easily I think, I've been through two in 3 years.

Thanks mate. Was just a bit concerned and didn't want to fit them if it wasn't normal.

Hi Just had a set of front Brembo HC's delivered. On one of the discs, on the top of the disc, where you can see the vents it has a 2/3 inch long machined groove that is a few mm into the disc! Is this normal? It is only on the one disc, the other disc has all the Brembo writing and product...

My phone call will be made tomorrow. :D Only downside is, I'll be without a Macbook for a few weeks.

Ha, thank you both. Kinda guessed it was obvious after I asked. And Revels, I'm glad I have won an award today ;).

Is it worth upgrading to the new MBP. Reason I ask is that I had mine delivered on the 14th, called Apple today as I was pretty miffed that they have upgraded so soon after mine being ordered, and they said I can have a free upgrade and until to Wednesday to decide! Which is very nice of them...
