I see we are all STILL arguing over fractions of a second....:rolleyes: Im sure a 197 Cup owner will have as much as fun as a 182 Trophy owner....and thats all that matters in this day and age...having FUN. God knows we need to try and enjoy our cars with this goddamn country doing its best to...

Was parked in the car park just along from Sailors...spotted it on our walk back from Fistral on Sunday.

Ahh now they bring back some memories.....wish i was over there now with a select few other members from on here!

Well i had my head in the bay with the g/f depressing the pedal and as per normal, the noise is hard to pinpoint. Sounds like its coming from the pedal end one minute, then sounds like its coming from the arm end the next!

Hmmmm....good call. Think i'll give that a go first before i commit to Rentech fitting a new clutch!

Cos im thinking that would defeat the point of having a Sevenoaks "Mini Meet".

Funny you should say that Sketty but my release bearing is indeed starting to grumble....it squeeks when cold on the first start up. So are the two related?

My clutch has been creaking for about a year now and its now gettin noticeably worse again now the weather has warmed up. I've searched on here for a definate cure but no one seems to have one. Some suggest replacing the cable, others then say its not the cable.:S Does anyone have a definate...

I wanted a 172 at 20...but i was never going to be able to afford one and be able afford to have a life every month so i started small like most of us do and then built up a) the no claims bonus and b) the driving experience. Do you work for a living and earn a small fortune? (This may be a...

My god Trevor....thats a controversial thing to say! I thought the general consensus on here these days was that you had to hate your Clio to be accepted....;)

Welcome to the club! If you fancy some Go Karting at Buckmore Park i have an event arranged for June 1st....not far from you. Also a day of driving and (hopefully) basking in the sun down in Brighton on July 6th. Hope to meet you on one of them! Go Karting...

Ahh of course. I nearly always forget to look on there in regards to build no's etc. A good source of info.

So are there any 182 FF's out there with the Cup Spoiler Pack but NOT the Cup suspension pack?

Ahh ok...must be another silver 182 FF floating around somewhere! And i was thinking they were rare!! Hehe.

Halfpint where do you live because im sure i've seen you around.....i keep seeing a silver 182 FF around from time to time...and they aren't that common! I only ask because i live in Guildford.

Well if you have those things then it has a Cup pack on....usually! Or are yours retrofit?

Yes if you don't have anthracite wheels a splitter and the cup spoiler then its a FF. A rare thing is a 182 without Cup packs. 182 FF (no Cup packs) 182 FF with Cup pack(s) 182 Cup 182 Trophy

182 Cup has A/C but no leather or Cruise.

I think the most worrying thing i've noticed there is the PINK steering wheel cover on the blue Clio. Horrendous.

Welcome to CS! Johners (clare) is my girlfriend so im up and down the A24 most weekends....i'll keep an eye out for you. Also im organising a Brighton Run meet for July if you fancy some driving around with a load of other Clios! Did one last year and it was a great day.

Amen to that. :approve:

My god....thats a simply awesome picture!

I think its fairly crucial for people to actually use their cars as often as they can in an envoironment that highlights the car's capabilities. Using my Cup as a commute tool can be a real pain as all it leaves me doing is dwelling on all its faults as it crashes, knocks and rattles over the...

You now officially have the bug.....there is no escape. Good thing you went straight to the top of the tree as well....only ones higher are the Trophy and V6....;)

Paddy197.....im guessing he maybe has a 197.....just a wild shot in the dark tho.;) :)

Exactly my advantage. Work in a dealer. Tools, ramps...free oil!!:approve: The cambelt was done at Rentech as will any other major work. I changed my rear shocks, a lower arm and pretty much anything else i have been capable of doing. I can see the want to have a nice tidy stamped service...

Welcome to CS! Im regulary down in Brighton as my girlfriend lives down there. I have a meet organised in Brighton in July. Well its more of a run in the surrounding roads but we will end up in Brighton. Get your fiver paid and then you can view the meet section! If not, PM me for details!

Thanks for the reply to my PM Synapsy. Keep me posted as and when you need any help when you get your RS!:)

Ahh well i that case i hope to see you around! Keep your eyes peeled for a 172 Cup with an Cliosport Isle Of Man 2008 sticker on the tailgate! If you fancy coming along to a meet drop me a PM.

A dirty looking Trophy heading in to Guildford today along the Woodbridge Road at about 12.25, and then a RB 197 heading out of Guildford along the same road at about 12.30! Also spotted a 172 Cup parked up outside the church in Ripley at about 5.10.
