I've had 2 1.6's as well.
In my opinion they are a nice 'inbetween' car if you want to step up to a sport one day, I also enjoyed driving mine and can't remember having any major problems, you'll probably find there are quite a few on here who have owned them.
I headed up to clio turbo (now based in durham) for my belts, if you don't mind a trip out then Andy is well worth a call.
We also have birchdown who are cheshire way who also have a good rep.
As Anthony said pop down and ask if they have the correct tools, any mention of the word tippex...run...
It's standard height as far as Im aware buddy, it just had me and my neighbour in it who between us have quite a high combined weight so probably get it sitting nice!
Saw a blue cup on morrisons roundabout in cleveleys about 5 pm yesterday? I didn't recognise it.
Also a BG182 with gold stickers on it at halfords Blackpool at about 6pm (an hour from cleveleys to squires gate..wasn't happy).

I got called in to work unfortunatley, I got home about an hour ago, good to see progress on the 'mx5' though, if I can still call it that.

I can't help with the water in the footwell problem but I am also a Paul M from Blackpool.
Welcome along buddy, there are quite a few of us locally should you need a hand with anything :smile:
I have these on currently, although I have only been pootling around town so no spirited driving as of yet, looking forward to giving them a good try though.
Welcome along buddy.
I'm just down the road the other side of Blackpool.
There are a few members off here at Oulton on the 20th...http://www.cliosport.net/threads/oulton-park-20th-may.772195/page-5 so you'll be able to get some ideas etc.
Also when the time comes to do your brake upgrade...
I haven't looked into it any further at present buddy, everything I read/was advised on was pointing towards nothing destructive happening and the car appears to be running okay so I've just been plodding on for now, I'll keep an eye on it and if it gets worse I'll do something more proactive...
