    FINALLY! Clio 172 'HOU'

    Well I'll be bringing it to CSS I'd imagine ;) I'll probably just leave it. Only problem really is before the lock button ceased to be, someone put it in RAID mode, so I have to keep opening the door.

    So I'm an idiot.

    I'm still not seeing why you're anything other than winning?

    FINALLY! Clio 172 'HOU'

    Neither the unlock or rear heat buttons work AFAIK (there's no light and doesn't operate the locks, not had a chance to test the window heat other than prodding the switch and looking for a light). Aircon switches off when the fan is in the 4 position, but if you move the fan dial to just before...

    So why are you an idiot then?

    FINALLY! Clio 172 'HOU'

    I prefer the Ph.1 bumper actually, the Ph2 looks a bit halfords.

    FINALLY! Clio 172 'HOU'

    You know what? I'm actually driving this slower and gentler than my 1.2. I don't need to give it death any more to get up a hill, I don't have to change 50rpm short of the limiter when joining a motorway, it's a real breath of fresh air to have a car that doesn't need to be driven hard. And the...

    FINALLY! Clio 172 'HOU'

    After 3 years of waiting, finally I have the keys to a Renaultsport Clio. But not just any RS, this is the infamous HOU. Owned by Daniel (again and again), Rob and many others. It's a Clio 172, Phase 1 but with a FULL interior conversion to Ph.2. It's not perfect, but it's bloody close. I have...

    RDR's CS Camping Trip 5th July 2014

    Re: CS Camping Trip 2014 (Details Updated) Yup. We turned our torches off, then everyone else wandered over with their torches ablaze and made a Davey Disco.

    RDR's CS Camping Trip 5th July 2014

    Re: CS Camping Trip 2014 (Details Updated) We did it in the middle of the field away from the cars IIRC.

    RDR's CS Camping Trip 5th July 2014

    Re: CS Camping Trip 2014 (Details Updated) Was what really happened.

    Here goes. Dead clio pics inside.

    Long story short I've been keeping a roof over my parents heads for the last few years with a majority of my wage. After that I've been saving up a house/flat deposit as well in case things do get worse so the car has had to sit on a back burner for a while. I was finally in a position where I...

    RDR's CS Camping Trip 5th July 2014

    Re: CS Camping Trip 2014 (Details Updated) This. Even with just us last year it ended up in two groups, so I suspect CSS will be horrendous - I suspect the regions will end up sticking together.

    Re: CS Camping Trip 2014 (Details Updated) The irony of that last sentence is unbelievable.

    Cheers, I'll have a look but as I'm mid term it'll cost me £400 to cancel my policy so for the moment I'll have to add it to my current policy and change at renewal.

    Charming.

    Thanks. It's a car at the end of the day, but just irritating as I was planning on autotesting it this weekend.

    Just got a new phone, techno r****d needs help. Again.

    I'm sure it was mutual.

    l33th3tr33's 172 cup

    Cutting down the linkage to make it shorter, which makes the gearstick lean back towards the rear of the car more. There's only a certain amount you can cut off though, can't remember the exact figure. Plymouth meet. Definitely.

    Clio sport bonnet vent...

    They look alright when there's a reason for them, but otherwise they're pointless.

    Lovely shots mate - I don't think I saw that second to last one before, is that over by the fishmarket in Sutton Harbour?

    The car's in Cleanspares on Valley Road mate - you could probably pick them up cheap if you asked.

    I used gocompare for that. Diamond was the cheapest IIRC but I haven't fully trawled the indies. And what good would three rotas do, unless you're planning on putting them on a tricycle?

    TBF it looks like the taxi hit that part of the wheel so I don't blame it for being wrecked, if anything the abuse and potholes they've had to put up with in the past have shown that they're not exactly fragile.

    £1500. Waiting on a reply from Brentacre.

    Yes, I've done some quotes already.

    Cheers folks. There was an element of forward impact too I think as we weren't exactly 90 degrees to each other. The battery slid forward 7-8 inches too.
