Mines been playing up for a few weeks now. Seems to be the display - often get a scrambled display but the voice alerts etc still work. Getting worse now though - cant do updates - just get the Origin logo when I plug it into the PC then nothing more - just freezes. Can I buy a new unit...

Mirror, mirror on the wall, whos the rarest of them all? Mars Red!! :D

yellow one at the dealer in Bradford on Avon.

No sore arse with Misanos :D Not quite the same thing though I guess.

04 plate has to be less than 10k to stand much of a chance of a private sale.

Got to remember its Anglesey. No room for a fast car to really stretch its legs. Im surprised the Clio didnt do better to be honest.

If its the Hillpower semi-open kit, the noise is absolutely brutal!

You could do it yourself easily enough. Depends whether you can be bothered really. Front splitter dead easy, buy one off here for around £60 and fit it yourself in half an hour. Rear spoiler, cost about £150, then needs spraying. Pretty easy to fit I believe.

lots of other seats you can have... http://www.mike.easley.dsl.pipex.com/seats2.jpg

Agreed , it looked really good :D but how fast can it go eh? ;-)

Depends on the track to be honest. Brands Indy maybe (but didnt happen last month). Proper track like Spa? Muuuhahahhahaha :D

They are, er, acquainted!

I wish I could find the thread describing peoples first reactions to the Mk2 Phase 2 Clio (the current model that we all know and love). It was almost universally disliked. Most of us bought one.

me, fixed straight away though.

where? Cant think of anywhere else it could go!!

Yup. When Valvers and Willys ceased production (1996/7?) there were no hot Clios for ages - nothing until the 172 came out in 2000 in fact.

LOL, he wants £500 just to give me an estimate. And thats if I supply my own oil ;) I hope the Vee doesnt have any cambelts. Or if it does I hope theyre located by the battery at the front where I can get at them. Surely it cant be a harder job than fitting those Silvervisions? How hard...

A Renault main dealer will charge you about £355 for a cambelt change on a 1.4 :o (according to my local dealer anyway). I reckon you should be looking at about half that at the most.

Get some Elf Excellium 5W40. Top it up if you drive like Miss Daisy, or change the oil & filter at 6k if you do trackdays or drive like you stole it.

you can get ikkle ones too.... http://www.mike.easley.dsl.pipex.com/v6av.jpg

The ABS does a self-test when you pull off after starting the car. The gearbox is notorious for a clunk when engaging first gear too. Nothing to worry about.

lol, you mean those bits of tape that were not quite certified to 140mph!!

going to see them at Oulton Park on Sunday :D

sorry found em now - mint! http://www.madmotors.co.uk/catalog/images/LENSO%20EVO%20IIweb1.jpg

Cant find Lenso Evos anywhere, are you sure thats what theyre called?

*yawn* must-go-to-sleep :p

Sweet. Mind the kerbs!

yeah mine never did it after the ECU change either come to think of it. I dont think the people who programmed the R-Sport ECU were too worried about cold-start emissions (round of applause!).

Flying along in a high gear, dip clutch and change down (keep clutch pressed) blip throttle and engage lower gear and release clutch. Saves your clutch but is slower (youll notice I didnt get a chance to brake during that sequence!). Just slam it in for Christs sake!

Out now according to the http://www.renaultsport.co.ukRenault website
