tyres turned up today from mytyres.co.uk, great service. And they have the red dot to denote stiffer sidewalls.
Couple of questions, compared the two the only differences between these and ones that are on are couple of numbers different, on original ones they say FU 56 8RJ 1704...
its not UK stock hence is says clio RS and megane RS, one dealer said no we cant get it, the other said yeah get it within 5 days, and you dont have to pay us until you pick it up.
mines ok paint wise, couple of chips but cant do anything about that, unless you get one of those horrid front end cover things!
all doors line up ok too.
dave the brochure part number is 7711275714
the renaultsport display pack is 7711227756 think I paid around £30 from renault.
the 182 plastic cae was cracked but I got the dealer to order me another one in.
I really like both model sets.
could get it done at your dads place Vicky then? :)
BozM they are still £79.50, its the W rated ones that are £102, agreed higher spec but not the ones that are fitted to the 182. You need the V rated ones as per the picture above.

If you get the renault collections...
lol Mike.
Still waiting for tyres to arrive from mytyres, how long does it usually take?
Renault dealer wants £60 to fit two to the rear!!!!! thats my supplying the rubber!!!
Another local large tyre dealer wants £15 same job. I dont mind paying more if it means no damage to wheels...
now? was it 95 just prior to light coming on, or had you bought some "suspect" optimax watered down with normal 95 unleaded from didgy shell garage?
dunno if it would cause that though, if it would it would be at high revs so maybe.
all 3 of my gps systems, (car, garmin gpsV and my road angel 2 are working normally.
Only time I was having problems with the road angel 2 was when I was trying to run it without additional antenna, as the windscreen was causing problems.
Now the antenna looks out of the rear window, no...
going from the Jan 2004 service book:
2.0 RS clios=
spark plugs changed at 72000miles,
air filter 12000miles or every 4 years
cabin filter every 12000miles
accessories belt and pulleys every 36000mile or 5 years
fuel filter 144000miles
brake fluid DOT4 72000miles or 4 years...
one local tyre place has told me to just run with it in if it is loosing 4psi over 1 week. Much safer than repairing it as a repair near the edge could reult in a blow out if it becomes loose.
Anyone agree with this, Just keep it in until the front 2 need changing then get all 4 tyres changed...
are these ones that have the red line folks, these the ones you ordered?

My tyre is going dwon from 30 psi to 26psi over 7 days. Had a look round it and its got a screw in the tread close to the inner edge, rear tyre passenger side.
Been told that if its this close to sidewall it cannot be repaired.
Anyone else had a slow puncture, and what did you do about it...
when i think old though im not thinking 30s 40s or 50s. More like this thread started with I imagined a car full of people getting out and getting their zimmers (sp?) out from under the boot net in the boot... :-)
im just over 6ft with no problems at all. No back ache which I sometimes get, as you just make the bottom of the seat firmer or softer for your own preference.
check out http://www.vdodayton.comwww.vdodayton.com have a look at the ms5000 as I believe the renault system is based around that model.http://erc.qmuc.ac.uk/cliosport/gallery/full/1099503137__3.jpg
