Ive been thinking of doing a check on my car that i got 2nd hand from a renault dealer. If it turns out there is something major that they,ve missed-Have i got any grounds for a complaint??
Ive had A539,s on my car for the past 2years&in the dry they are the nuts but in the wet they are very twitchy!! I would seriously say no to buying theses well again. I changed my fronts to BF GOODRICH G-FORCE!!!! IMO I think these are the new kids on the block. Well worth the money&have awicked...
My first car was a Vauxhall Astra 5 door, GOLD in colour- 1.3l-was the slowest thing on the road back then. Top speed was about 80mph but it took about 2days to get there!!
GREENLIGHT in Brentwood 01277 263030. Gave me an excellent deal on my 172. &ive got mods on my car which they,ve covered. They also cover you for track days as well.;)
I was going to suggest Greenlight in Brentwood 01277 263030
Im 22, 3yrs no claims&on my 172, renault insurance wanted £1500!!! I rang these guys(SPEAK TO NEIL). They quoted £1236 fully comp AND i believe they can cover you for track days as well.
Quite a result as my last car a 1.2 16v...
You the man! Clios still have quite a reputation 4being slow. I say whatever!! My motor has done me proud-left a Bmw Z3 behind the other week, the owners face was quite a picture when i met him at the next set of lights. hahahahahahahah ;)
Im ragging it all the time, its stupid cos in the end it costs me more money in petrol! It must be sometime2do with the little gremlin inside me that escapes once im strapped in the car. hehe. When will i learn???
Yeah exactly, i mean i cant understand though who buy a powerful car like 172/182&drive slow all the time? Im not sayin that u should break the speed limit all the time but the car has a 2.0engine in it4 a reason so why not give it a bit of stick now&then!
Ive totally ragged mine from the day i got it! Its a natural thing ive aquired to since gettin it! Im running around 23mpg but im litterally goin to the petrol garage bout every 4/5 days!!!:(
I reckon it prevents it cos when the light is on u CAN wheel spin,meaning traction control is turned OFF! Mine judders as well-its annoying but it saves me burning out my tyres! But remember it wont always stop your car from spinning out. Ive done it twice now&didnt enjoy it-left a nasty stain...
My first clio was the dynamique 1.2 16v- which was 13sec 0-60& i did manage 120mph out of it once but it was down hill& it took about 3weeks 2 get there. I traded that in, in june for a 172!! Its scary as sh*t to make that sort of change. But so much more fun!!!;)
