i dont think the scrap yards are that cheap in comparison to new parts - depends what you buy. The wanted to charge me £55 plus postage for some door handles that i got for £45 new - take the piss sometimes i think

RAM was an independant but did not have anything. Non of the shops seem to stock anything renault at all. Id make the thing myself if i had a soldiering iron! only eurocar left! how annoying.

im sure it wont be for road use. Reno seem more keen on making smaller engines faster and economical. Went out in a rover 2.5 v6 ZT - that was very fast but being a FWD it just spins like f**k in 1st/2nd/3rd...im sure the thing never touches the ground.

did you hit the kerb at force? If its pulling then could be a cracked suspension spring (min £125 each...owch for a reno one) Maybe the spring just moved a bit and then re-aligned itself.

renault own most of nissan otherwise it would have gone bust. This is why the micra dci is a renault engine and the new clio is a cross between a megane and a micra with cards instead of keys. japanese aint so good either as you can see.

itll be the hand brake jumping down - its usually when you pull it up hard. Mine did that at one point but has gone away now. dont think its anything major.

well motorworld have the thickest staff in the entire planet, well at my branch anyway. Went into charlie browns (are they motorworld too?) and had nothing but said they would try and order on monday...motormania - clueless and RAM said they soldier some wire directly onto the plug...very...

dont forget to add that bloody sunroof on the other models! Im gonna kick some ass next year. My grandad just had the entire sunroof replaced - glass/seals...the lot and is okay now.

thats where i went - ripspeed is in halfords but he looked in the book and said it was not listed? The cable would not reach if i did that and it would be a bodged up job so i prefer the adaptors.

yeah from my local dealer. I complained that the paint was too thin - causing to get a chip on my 2 week old clio! so he went and got me an offical kit. Its a very good match. You get the colour stick and laquer stick - mines gone manky for some reason.

where do i get the speaker adapters from? someones said before but i can not remember. ripspeed can not get them cos autoleads does not do em.

it looks like 2 pannels need respraying! your looking about about £200 from the main dealer and you can not really get them to touch it up cos you will be able to tell. I would just touch it up for now - its gonna get more scratches on it at some point so its better to do it later when it looks...

the big one will be +ve and the small one is -ve. the big one supplies the power, whereas your little one just earths the speaker. what size are the speakers? get them from ripspeed?

its one of the switches no doubt. The bonnet one on my old clio used to be a right pain in the ass but i think that is 3 flashes?? check the boot and the door ones and see if the ultra sonics are too sensitive by waving your hand over them while armed. The auto electrician usually just puts some...

it cost me £1233 fc with a pass plus at 20 with about 9months experience, no bonuses for a 1.2 8v RL which was about 3-4 years old or 900 squid tpft. A corsa 1.2 8v merit was £1400!!!!, 1.2 LS was £1700 and the 1.4 8v GLS was £2400 (i was after an SRI at the time) so as you can see you havent...

you dont say. and what does one do that the other doesnt?

whats the difference between metalic wax and normal wax apart from the price?

pearl black, or gold black or that deep blue colour looks good. Black is a b*****d for showing up the slightest scratch but silver hides everything but a chip is harder to disguise.

theres two different door card trims too. one plain black one or theres black with white lines.

my lock is on the left, as is my boot handle. Its better that it doesnt have a lock on the drivers side cos car theives would ram a screw driver into that (not realising the lock on the passenger side. instead of smashing the window which is cheaper. guys at work has it on both - authentique.

All you do is drive down a quite road and slam on your brakes and it should be gone off the disc. *make sure its not on an icy road!!!* or you can use some fine grade sandpaper and do it yourself.

you would have thought it would have white dials! I have never seen a v6 unless a kid that looked about 20 had one - silver around blackpool, old shape unless it was a body kit. the headlights dont look right - they should have brought them forward.

yeah but the v6 is hand built not like your standard clio. The roof seems flimsy to me - causes sunroof to rattle but maybe the A pilars a tough. That civic looks like a fiat now lol Seen loads of clios in harrats, written off frontal damage. The wings hatter and the bumper falls off...

couldnt you take it down to kwik-fit and ask them to do a check? they do it for free usually dont they?

that only leaves the budget at 1.5k then now. Mine was fully comp though. I wish i had the tilt and slide sunroof like in my old clio instead of this sh*t rattling push up job. A geeza at work just bought a black corsa sxi x reg for £2000...how good is that? gearbox is faulty though - slips from...

just seem to be very unlucky. Most people just get little annoying things like rattling sunroofs. If that happened to mine id make them take the b*****d back.

is all insulation in place under the bonnet? Not sure if all 1.2s have it so it will sound louder (one massive piece under bonnet and one behind coolant tank. Also a nicely thrashed to f**k clio will make it sound like an old ford. Mine wheel spins like crazy - obviuosly contis. mine used to...

which is why you should never keep it longer than 5 years unless you can not afford to exchange it
