Erm...are you really sure?:p I hope youve actually seen and been for a ride in a 16v/Williams! They dont make em like they used to you know...only the boot and doors are the same as a normal original Clio you know! Proper Group A Rally pedigree: they raced the 1.8s then the 2.0s (hence the...

The Corsa/F2/Maxi kits look unlike any other kits - like the car was just made like that in all its glory. Takes the Clio 16v/Willy idea of very big arches, but subtle looks and makes it about twice as big! (y) Do it - but beware the cost of having it done properly: £1000-£1500 retail for a...

Further to my last post about a suspect starter motor, my car must have been reading too and has responded by presenting me with another clue to the problem!! When going along the motorway, my battery light flashes red when I indicate, use an electric window, or turn the stereo up loud. But...

Erm, can you make "Captains Special" or something suitable cheesey out of the normal Renault badges/lettering? How about "Blow me down" or "Shiver me Turbos";) Ha ha!!!!

Champions indeed Glynn/Glenn (How do you spell it? Im a Welsh speaker, so to my eyes it should be Glyn!). Lofty mate, numbers would be fantastic. BTW, will you have spare 16v starter motor and alternator when the Willy engine conversion is finished?? Could be interested!

Faceman: Erm, well my dads big grey Volvo 960 estate has a mirror in the drivers sun visor. More of an undertakers car than a girls car dont you think?:D

Naples red and leather on your 16v? Man - Id be in heaven (if, of course, it werent for pearlescent black and leather!). Try some black/anthracite wheels mate.

If, like with a 16v/Williams, its not particulalrly straightforward to change the oil/filter, then go to a garage with a fixed menu pricing system (price they quote is price you pay). If youve got a car like a 16v that is awkward to work on, then the labour charge will be £40 plus alone -...

Cheers guys. Ive just looked at the Haynes Spiritual Guidance Text and the news is not good. I have to basically take the car to pieces and put it back together. Bum!:sick: I dont usually go to garages with set menu pricing (e.g. AA etc), as theyre usually a bit more expensive and dont have...

Eh???

My 16v is hesitating a little on start up occasionally - but these occasions seem to be getting more regular!! I reckon its the starter motor on its way out, as you can hear it having difficulty turning over on the first few turns. So how much is it to have a starter motor fitted (including...

Now Ive had this debate a few times with mates in the pub - and to be fair my cars name is Holly, which could be a bloke or a bird. But then they see a proper Renault Sport Clio - like my Clio 16v: Pearlescent black bodywork, bonnet bulge, air ducts, pupmed up arches, anthracite wheels, grey...

What a good idea! Cheers! You see, I always was a bit poo at sciencey type stuff!

But you cant put GTX in diesel can you??? Or am I being silly?:confused:

Was the sunroof an option or standard on the Willy 3? I could swear Ive seen a Willy 3 with a sunroof, but my mates bona fide Willy 3 does not have one - option or some sort of fraud again!!?

G13NN X: becuase the reg finishes with HOL. My last Clio, which was lowered a LOT, had its reg finish with LOW!! 16vs still make the money - the book price for the 16v is in most cases well under what theyll fetch on the garage forecourt or in private sales. Ive very rarely seen a good Phase...

Ive got a 1994 Phase 2 16v, with the speakers at the front of the car replaced by branded ones (13cm door and 10cm dash), to compliment the rest of the system. Sadly, my left hand door bottom 13cm speaker is not happy at the moment. Ive checked the speaker and its OK. So it must be the...

Try also FiveAlive - theyve done it too. I think it actually went into a 1.8 RT or RSi shell (so the brakes etc were OK) - and the job was for a Policeman!!!:p I think its http://www.fivealive.co.ukwww.fivealive.co.uk or five-alive.co.uk. Theyre in London.

I doubt Ill ever sell my 16v either. You can never say never, but its pretty damn unlikely this side of a thermonuclear war followed by famine, during which time Id almost starve before selling "Holly"!;) Its not just the money, but the fact that Ive spent almost all my free time on this...
