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...

Valver will still eck out a little lead over a VTS, especially in-gear and at motorway speeds - but the VTS is still a cracking motor. Just remember that you really have to rag the 16v to take full advantage. VTS and VTR are only "more tuneable" than a 16v/Willy becuase the demand is there...

Leather? That has to be a re-trim then. Wasnt an option as far as I know:) Educated opinions invited from Renault spec boffs!!!:D

Vauxhalls usually have very strong engines, but chassis made from twigs and newspaper - and thats the top ones like a GSi Astra etc. Corsa was never made with structural integrity to hadle a 2.0 16v engine - so expect to whop it in a real A/B-road contest. If you insist on a straight line...

...and Lofty, am well up for the r/r. Is it Interpro?

Cheers guys! Ive already tried cleaning the contacts, but to no avail. So a vist to the scrappies itll be then Am I right in thinking that the window switches can be salveged from 19 and 21 Renaults?

No idea about who to get to do the wheels - Ill have to ask locally I guess

Couple of niggling faults that, in His wisdom, are blocking my road to spritual fulifilment at the moment Firstly, my rear washer jet is poo-pooing the party at the back of my 16v by dribbling washer fluid all over the back of the car. Is this a faulty motor or a faulty control stalk? (the...

When I investigated the Holy Spiritual Text (aka Haynes Manual) in the wiring diagrams, I could not find a place for a bulb behind the Altar (temperature gauge display). I came to the conclusion that it was going to be more of an Eccumenical matter (perhaps a loose connection, rather than a...

Yeah mines black with anthracite wheels Im giving serious consideration to having the wheels done in the same pearlescent black as the body - as long as the finish is durable enough. Is this possible, and to have a finish that will still look good (scratches aside) in a few years? My wheels...

Looks fab mate! Just wait until you see the Renault pearlesacent black on a Clio 16vs body!

Mat - well up for a RWYB match! Lets keep our eyes peeled for one fairly local to us (Im in Bristol).

The same problem cropped up on me the other week. But by the time Id come to fix it, the bulb had decided to fix itself!!!

Yeah top night and well worth a long trip for anybody considering a future meet! Glyns car with its leather/alcantara craziness has got me thinking...

I think its a 5-cylinder 20v. Fiat are having real trouble shifting units at the moment, which is a shame as the Stylo is a fair car. My mates boss has an Abarth Stylo with all the toys youre on about. Its no hot hatch in the 172/Willy/16v/Cup sense, but itll do for mega miles.
