    My day with Clio 4

    Being honest, I hate that. It looks terrible (imo). Something about the outside screams "I'm a KIA" until you realise it's got a meter sq renault badge on the front. The Clio has always been desirable to younger people and that just looks like something my nan would have wanted. Then you get...

    My new car...

    Hell no. Not on a road car. It'd lose every ounce of class.

    Clio 4RS guesstimate prices (almost) released...

    Re: Clio 4RS prices released... HANG ON. The RS version will be auto only? Surely CS members actually make up a fair % of new RS Clio's purchased in the Uk at least?

    Clio 4RS guesstimate prices (almost) released...

    Re: Clio 4RS prices released... I'm pretty bored and have just checked, if they come out at 22k, I don't know why I'd not just buy a 125i hatch for for £2750 more.

    Re: Clio 4RS prices released... LOL! Millions have been subject to wage freezes yet the prices of Renault hot hatches just never stop climbing.

    Tracking 3G

    Using your own 3G, on your own phone, they can't check s**t. But yes, essentially being connected to a work network on your phone they could see what you're browsing. No more toilet wanks for you.

    Dave, have you like most, not got a pot of random nuts and bolts? If not, I'm sure there's probably one you could nick off the car from somewhere that isn't vital for now.

    182/Trophy Reliability?

    Real world, 37 mpg IME. Motorways if you can deal with being bored, 42mpg, 40 normally. Even when really abusing it you'll still see 18mpg

    If you've got a sparky coming over and he hasn't got a few random bits like that lying in his van I'd be surprised.

    From a quick bit of research, 120 amps apparently. I could be wrong though.

    These are a bit too small for me, but it's the internal diameter! See it says 6mm! http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_storeId_10001_catalogId_10151_productId_157590_langId_-1_categoryId_255229 Dave you are chief spanner

    Can you not get to a local motorfactors or even halfords?

    Why 13mm Dave? Are you on crack? The outside of the nut will be 13mm, the hole on that bolt is likely 6 8 or 10mm. So the inside of that o-ring wants to be 6/8/10mm, right??

    182/Trophy Reliability?

    In terms of reliability, coming from my ph1, they're really very good. In the time I had mine I did the clutch (age/miles), and the only thing to actually fail on me other than that was the top engine mount. It cost me a box of beer for DannyR to drive me another one down. Oh, and my passenger...

    Help! ph1 to ph2 boot swap

    Got a multi meter? Go through the wires and see if you can identify which wires go live on switch unlock and switch lock?

    Help! ph1 to ph2 boot swap

    I know Adam on here did, but I don't know if he got it all working. Are you any good with electrics? You may be able to get it going with a mutlimeter. How many wires for each?

    Help! ph1 to ph2 boot swap

    Interesting one.... Try to take a look at both haynes manuals is my only advice.

    Mixed Tyres

    Personally I like to fit four different tyres to every new car I get, then I do a series of tests to see which I like best. Corner hard right and accelerate, corner hard left and accelerate, which ever corner feels like it has the most grip, the opposing side to the direction you cornered...

    FAO of everyone whos done the ph1>ph2 dash conversion.

    That's awesome Ben. That light isn't there in the ph1, no. Tbh if I did it again I'd be half tempted to try and splice a ph2 interior loom in, whether it'd work I don't know. John, depends how competent you are really? When I undertook mine I was just someone with a tool kit, the dash, and a...
