Im from Chester, purchased me old car from jeremy there in 2002. Now got a Clio 182 tho, had so many faults its unreal. Car been to Lookers Chester Renault a few times, im from the Lache :)
I could ring them, tho its been to Renault about 12-14 times now. Dont think they would give me the cash back as the car is a 04 and on 27/28k now ish...
I know a cossie is in a different league, but if you consider the way the cars are going now, it soon wont be. If you compare the way it...
Contacted the garage this morning in work about 9am, was told that they cant recover the veichle as they dont have a recovery truck, i explained that i would drive the car to them if they had a fully charge battery to get me there, but they said they cant provide that either as they cant be sure...
I have personal AA cover for the bike, just think i should not have to use my AA credit thingy and lose me on call out annual bonus for something they should do in the first hand. Shall ring the service department tomorrow, tho highly suspect nothing before thursday to be done.
The bike is...
Do i get the record for the most number of lights on in one incident..
Looks like a christmas tree.... ;)
Anyway, saved me some fuel on the truck. Got loads left now. All i need is a fully charged battery, and i can drive it to renault. Or, they could bring me one from another car, and i...
What colour, where u located.?
Know of a scrap yard that has about 6-7 clio 172's and various other new shape clios. Some not even put in the yard yet, so parts not allowed to be took off.
Driving home tonight from Sunderland to home (about 210mile) i noticed the clock was a little unusual as it was a little bit dimmer than normal. Suspected it was just the dash dimmer switch being out and upped the brightness. About an hr later i get a ABS, Traction Control, and the Serv light...
Idiot....
Anyway, the damn thing failed again tonight on the way home. Just got towed home as i broke down about 8-40pm. Alternator is not charging. Wonder when they can fit me in to have this alternator replaced.
Why is it a stupid comment. Its true tho. Most of them which are decent go for about £12-14k meanwhile the clio has dropped another £500 in price.
Id rather have a cossie, one which has had sensible mods, and therefore about 270bhp... ive seen a few. Compare the clio against something like...
Naa, id rather have the escort cosworth..
If i never relied upon the warranty incase things went wrong, id have one...
Then again, renault warranty is no much better than doing it myself.
You never bought it from Reg Vardy Renault in Sunderland did you.?
When i bought mine, we swapped all the bad bits onto this poor little 182. The wheel, the door trim. (the door trim was scored, the wheel was kerbed)
My car is a HV04, had the shopping list
ClioCup
RenaultSport...
Some pics of the kit, as you can see ive removed it from the car. All is there to put the kit onto a Clio 182 / 172.
Cant put the item in the forsale section as im only a forum user.
Problem with a drive out is that if they spot anything wrong with the car, like my shock was leaking, you cant drive the car back, and if they dont have a car for you your stuck.
My old clio had a leaking water pump which was changed on the service..
Got a camera tho dont think it can record sound. Its definately louder than standard up too about 4.5k rpm then it goes quiet..
Im up in Peterlee (Nr Sunderland / Hartlepool) if anyone wants to come see it. May take it off later as we dont like it. Sounds a bit OTT for what we use the car for.
More like a cone filter to me in a special home with a bit of cold air feed to make it look nice.
Ill see what RR's are around here for tomorrow that aint too expensive....whats a good price for 2 runs, one with filter, one with airbox.?
How about people just tagging on as they went along, that way i dont have to drive all the way to the end of the country, to drive to cornwall, all the way back up again, to drive all the way back....
always could get a courtsey car that weekend..
Lookers Chester
Speed Six Wrexham
Both good dealers, just give ensure you get a price match with them. I used Lookers Chester Renault prices on Reg Vardy Renault as they were about £40 cheaper..
