    i'd question the build after the nail i've been in (mini)

    Are Brembo calipers covered under warranty?

    Thinking of selling the 182 for a 172 - opinions please

    I downgraded my 197 to a Cup. With the mods i broke off my 197 i pocketed about 5-6k. Was going for a phase 1, but as mentioned some near/over ten years old, meh picked up a 47k cup full RSH for a smidge over 4k

    HID Dissapointment!!!

    There's adjutsters at the top of each headlight that points the beams up and down. You've probably knocked the patterns out of alignment. All mot stations have a pattern tester. So your lights can be set up on these. Only a ten min job!! Go to kwikfit, slip a mech a tenner ;)

    HID Dissapointment!!!

    Thats why i ditched the 6000k. Too blue. The lower the K the better the light output. I'd say 4300-5000 will be spot on imo

    H&R for 182+Cuppack

    Dont doubt it for a minute, all the German stuff is pretty good tbh! I'd never adjust it though, i'd find the set up and leave it, so it would be a waste for me. Only use the car across country (birchdown country ;)) That said if a secondhand set of KW's come up i wouldnt turn them down

    collies on a 172cup

    The KTR ones are OK for the money by all accounts, but you do get what you pay for. I'd recommend any of the TUV German stuff, H&R KW etc. I've had three sets of H&R on various Clios (172 Cup 182 197) and you can't go wrong. Depends on budget tbh!!

    H&R for 182+Cuppack

    Bang on. I've had three sets of H&R coilovers on Clios. 172 Cup, 182 and 197. Just 'downgraded' ;) back to a 172 cup again. As soon as a second hand set come available i WILL be getting them again! Bloody awesome from day to day use!

    HID Dissapointment!!!

    Get the beam pattern set up? Might be all to c**k, any MOT plce should do it, not a big job lol. FYI i found 6000k w**k. Changed to 5000k much better. 4300k is oem set up on most cars

    Clio 197

    I arveraged 28 ish. Get 38 out of the 172 Cup i've just got lol

    Clio 197

    Whats your budget? Early ones could suffer AC faults (not working) but the dealers seemed to have rid the niggles with recalls. Main one is the wear on the Recaros (if fitted) Very common for the side bolsters to go. They all 'kangaroo' when cold (rough running, bit jumpy etc) Also brakes can...

    Clio 197

    Yep!! Loved mine! They have an awesome on road presence.
  15. Gaz_

    200 = the new bug eye scoob

    GT looks like some Peugeot love child imo

    Does the 197 go for a... Diesel?

    ^Fail
  17. Gaz_

    Another milestone reached.

    You should see how much i gave kev last weekend for my new purchase!!! Replacing looooads!
  19. Gaz_

    Were you here?

    So thats who's it was!!!! The GF's next door heighbour had it a few years ago one weekend. He worked at a Renault garage (i'm now presuming Telford?) took it in PX. Even took her for a spin in it lol!!

    Clio182 trophy??????

    But thats his opinion. Like your opinion that all Clio's are s**t? Were you raped in a Clio or something? Get over it.

    Turini's have they had there day?

    My old un (about three years ago) ;)

    Steering Wheel and Gear Knob

    Gear knob, think so. I've ordered a new Renault one. Think the old one needs butchering off, hopefully the new one slips on OK. Steering wheel, only ones off Clios MK2 will fit (maybe older Meganes too). I'm going for a smaller aftermarket.

    Changing 172 Cup springs. Advice?

    True, mines a Bloody riot tbh!!
  24. Gaz_

    Turini's have they had there day?

    They suit a Cup perfectly But 182's suit the standard Cup alloys better imo

    Track Cup - 6 years, 53k and some TLC

    Mint!!! Love that!

    Does the 197 go for a... Diesel?

    The petrol thing was a factor in me selling mine. I only use it to and from the gf's, and it was starting to piss me off putting £60+ of fuel in it every 10 days or so. So sold up and got a £4k Cup. £45 a tank and 38mpg so far. Yes its gruff and a bit lairy but meh, my bank account is now 6K...

    my dislexic 197???

    Yup all early ones said it lol!!!
  28. Gaz_

    Are black cars really that much of a mare to keep looking nice?

    Never again. My BG 182 lasted 6 months. You cant just wash a Black car. It turns onto a epic job.

    V6 airbox

    So the difference between the Espace box, and phase 1 172 box is the intakes? Been a while since i've been round the 'in' mods on the 172's. I used to have a Maxogen on my old Cup

    V6 airbox

    Yep, that is.
