ouch, sorry to hear about your car mate :(
Driving my dads beamer a few years back, hit a rabbit and the stylised shape on the lower bumper above the splitter thingy took its head clean off and collected it up, only noticed when I braked for lights later in the journey, and the head rolled out...
cracking car...
...don't really understand how there can be a whole website dedicated to 'car detailing' all right fair enough- a clean here, a polish there and yes I too spend 3 hours or so cleaning my car to my satisfaction but a car is a car.
Stone chips are scars of life ;)
Right - got the car booked in at a great local garage for a cost of £153 which I am pleased with, and I'm driving my gf's rather shockingly horrible Hyundai (what a piece of sh*t, honestly I know french cars do not have world beating build quality but seriously try driving a Hyundai, its...
Tbh mate on the 182 I don't think it is a matter of preference, it should be done and it states it In my service guide thingy. I can't speak for other clios but I'm just so glad I spotted it and not risked driving it.
Bang on mate, exactly why forums like this are handy- there's always someone who knows what's going on, saying that there are some people ^^ who don't!!
LOL your right mate! It's quite funny she, didn't want me to buy a loud car, so whenever she's with me I have too keep the revs below 3k as it does tend too make a bit of noise what with the mods etc!
Yes mate I most def would look into it, I abs love my new car and would be truely broken (def financally) if it was to go and then take the cambelt with it!
Thanks for your help guys, sure enough I phoned the dealers in notts and they had 'misread' renault guidlines- I pretty much said to the guy are you fukcing kidding me!? But he was very apologetic ad has offered to do it for a reduced price so that's all good:-)
With regard to the 'disaster'...
So the story goes... Picked up my 182 on friday, abs loving not a problem in sight... Until I checked the car documents. The cars done 39,000 and has had it's 36k servie at a Renault dealer I assumed of course that it will have had the aux belt included In This service especially for a cost of...

Neat little project there mate, nice tidy finish & not a neon in sight! :)
Personally Ive never seen the attraction of filling the boot up with speakers and stuff because I always need it for this and that but each too their own!
If you want too sell the car what happens then? Does kit like...
yeah just different photos - guy I bought them off didn't understand colour profiles ;)
They chemically stripped the old metal and then repainted and lacquered them and they came up an absolute treat. They even sourced some new VW centre caps, and replaced all of the bolts you can see in the...
