thats the one mate and i meant under the glovebox, not in it :)

couldnt tell you. Mine was a 94 so different year but it came with a small key which operated the siren under bonnet and the actual alarm under the glove box. If you look under the flap do you have a keyhole? May have to lift a rubber niple type cover off if it has one.

under the bonnet... turn the siren on :) should have a key for it. Its under the flap on the right hand side as you look at the car.

you should be looking for the best example rather than the best colour, youre onto a winner if its black though ;)

black! http://homepage.ntlworld.com/s.newberry1980/clio.jpg

only on cliosport by any chance? if so - uploader is down - most people used it for pics Youd have been better putting this in off topic

nice one mate! now save up for servicing and any suprises the valver may and probably will throw at you ;)

pmsl make sure no kids or animals lick your car

why havent you declared the tints?

if you dont then your insurance is invalid and you are breaking the law. Also if your mum is the named driver but you use the car the most youre breaking the law too. Get your own insurance and get building that NCB!

id call the police and insurance in advance ;)

beast. Its obviously faster... his 2 bonnet vents compared to your one.

i assume insurance is no problem as youve made no mention of it?

walk round a few car supermarkets and see what they have in. Sometimes youll see something you really like but never considered.

id test drive both :) If you can afford to swap your car then why not?

32mpg around town??? damn i knew my 16mpg was bad!

what colour? I really like them in black! any pics of the one youre having?

left to right oil level, oil temp, oil pressure

i had most of the work on my clio done at an AA service centre. Only real problem i had was when they backed it into a skip for me.

i almost went for an automatic for the same reason - stop starting in traffic but well gsis didnt come with an auto box ;) My next car may be an auto...

i used the valver as an everyday motorway car and it wasnt too noisy at all!

http://www.greenlightinsurance.com/http://www.greenlightinsurance.com/ Just had a quote from them for £727.75 which is hundreds cheaper than anywhere else i have tried. Ill see what my current insurer - adrian flux offer me then make a descion but that price is excellent!

i only got through 2 in 2 years!

the whole stripe image was ruined by people putting "viper" stripes over anything and everything - escorts, fiestas, novas etc.

IMO stripes on a v6 would look tacky but then im not really keen of them on the 182 either.

use household paint, a lot cheaper and longer lasting.

maybe they were hoping for some dogging action ;) Seriously that is worrying, its one thing following you but another when they know where you live.
