Bothered. Everyone knows the Cup is quicker. How much quicker is the part most people over-estimate. If you were so much as to half-fluff a gear change the Cups advantage is gone. Its totally down to the driver. For example, I have seen videos of you in your Cup and you can launch it very...

About £9k. Tops.....

... what about weight? and height?? ;) i after e and I cant see no c!!!

Oh no. Not another newbie..;) be wary of our resident uber-geek.... he has a stick and hes not afraid to use it....

Show off.:o;) The fastest bread in the West!!:D

Did a 400 mile round trip (Burton On Trent to Whitley Bay) on a full tank. And that included doing 80-85 most of the way back. 42 Mpg average for the whole trip. Brilliant really.

You tend to take for granted the spec you have. My friend bought his missus a 1 month old BMW 320 cab for Easter ( shocking I know, more money than sense) and he cant get his head around how my little clio is better specced than her Bimma.... Love it. Amazing for the money. Cruise Control...

lol.... you should try driving through birmingham..... on....off.... on..... off [Edited by lagerlout1 on 30 July 2004 at 12:06pm] Sorry Lee, you beat me too it!!

Minis are gay. You made the right choice. And if one Mini owner comes on here and starts bleating about f**king residuals..... Anyway, of course its multi function. It has a horn. And buttons for cruise control. And it steers the car. Thus can correctly be described as being multi-function...

There is a sensor on the rear axle iirc. When I pull up on the kerb outside my house I can hear the servo adjusting. All this on a £12k car. Fantastic.

I was just wondering why you had been suspended. Tut Tut. ;) [Edited by lagerlout1 on 30 July 2004 at 12:46am]

All Clios are most welcome young man!!!

Its the only explanation I can come up with. The Renaultsort models are made at a different location to the rest of the Clio range though.... who knows...

My girlfriends Dynamique is the same - actually feels a lot more solid inside than mine. I put it down to the firmer suspension, low profile tyres etc on the Renaultsport models.

Ebay it. If FHM can sell a bucket of London tap water for £90, Im sure there will be a buyer for seats!!

Welcome m8! Wherabouts in the Midlands are you from??

Same as. Cant say I notice any difference when I run it on 95 ron though tbh. I seem to rember a good thread a while back where BenR and some other guy were explaing how using 98 ron will not offer any increase in performance over 95..... Still use Optimax most of the time though. Just to be on...

Not fast enough. Luckily my brain is fast enough to spot a complete chancer when I see one....;)

At least twice in th last week iirc..... I nearly posted, but realised Id typed exactly the same thing just days ago!!

Yes, I know. Its just not written very well. it should read something like "When this function is in operation, light 1 flashes to confirm this"

Sorry about the tone of my last post. Ive onlt just got up, and Im not much of a morning person. As you may have guessed. lol.

Did you look on the next page??? http://erc.qmuc.ac.uk/cliosport/gallery/full/1090661195__P1010061.jpg

For f**ks sake. Its just not written very well, but anybody with half a brain could work it out. Go out in your car now and try and do the biggest wheelspin you can. The traction control will kill power to the wheels until traction is regained and you will see the light flicker. Then press the...

Yeah, the 182 has hit residuals of the 172 and Cup pretty hard. Ive lost £1,600 in less than a year!!

Got offered £10k from a dealer for my 53 172 (UK car) registered November last year. Had about 6500 miles on at the time. Would expect to get in the region of £10,800 from a private sale. Maybe. If you want to sell your spoiler, splitter and wheels let me know. Looks like a 182 is out of the...

Yup, had mine replaced after 1000 miles on my 172. Cured the rattle, but now the passenger is stiff as fook to slide back and doesnt always click back into positon properly.

lol.... my Mum is from Birmingham.... when i try and imitate her accent, she says " Im from Birmingham, not Walsall" lol... most people dont even know theres a difference..... Im from Staffordshire. And its rubbish. According to Clarkson its got the worst towns in the country. And Im inclinded...

No, it doesnt matter if the Cruise/speed limiter is on or not. Its actually a physical part of the accelerator assembly. Have a look and push your pedal down with your hand and youll see it. Even when thrashing mine, I never touch it. You dont need to try and push the pedal through the floor...

This is just a kickdown to disengage the Cruise Control/Speed limiter. Dont need to push the pedal down that far under normal driving conditions.
