He said as a reno dealer he would not be allowed to place an import on his forecourt so the car would have to go to auction, probably talking sh!t like but that was his story and he was sticking to it. Might try importers to what sort...

lee is correct.any 172 owners should be considering seriously whether they can afford to lose on average between £300-500 a MONTH on their cars. ive had mine since april and will lose nearly £2k on it.the value wont go up, and bear in mind...
It works with cars on the 1/4 mile as it puts more surface area onto the tarmac, on track you run the risk of the tyre coming off the rim.
To be honest, I didnt bother at Silverstone and that was a really hot day, and I didnt bother at Spa or the Nurburgring. I will next time though as the...

Dealer said hed have given me £9.5 for it if it had been uk but that would probably been against full screen price on the 182. What really hacks me off is the 02 plate they have on the forecourt with 22k on it priced @ £10,495, Should...
Thats shocking. I traded my Import Monaco Blue 172 with 22500 in 15 months on the clock against a new Arctic Blue 182 with Cup packs on Friends and Family so it cost me peanuts. They gave me £8.6k for the 172 which was only a grand less than a UK car would have got, and I saved a lot more than...
What I think you have to ask yourself is, why do no other insurance companies allow pretty much unlimited mods yet Greenlight still charge you much less than other major named companies?
When I wrote a car off years ago I was with Barclays, I had a car supplied the same day and was paid out...

Im with Highway, told them everything on sign up.(Via Greenlight insurance)
Yup, Greenlight use Highway. They quoted me £400 less than anyone else, but I still didnt use them!
If I had any more holiday left this year Id take it to Renault Wolverhampton, the lad I know who got me the F&F works there so I might see if he fancies sorting me out another one.
I usually wait until I cant put up with the faults, which is why I waited for the exhaust to go too. At least...
I took it to Sutton Park. Ive always used them as I get on well with the service staff Ive been there so often. Pity the mechanics cant get it right.
BozM, that sounds the same as mine. Its more of a something is lose and knocking against the engine bay, rather then a large mechanical...
The last two times it went in Mike they kept the car all day each time as they were talking with Cobra via email apparently. Not that it helped.
Yes Paul, its on order so theres another trip to the dealers.
Of course not, this is Renault we are talking about.
The car went in for the 3rd time today to get the knocking from the front done and the 3 beeps when setting the alarm after closing the door. They also took at a look at the exhaust for me.
And out of those 3 things they fixed exactly...

Same here.
Mine has gone in for the 3rd time this morning.
The last two times they have carried out the strut top mount fix. Even though I have said on both occasions its not that, as I had that on the 172.
Mine is just something lose which is knocking against something. You can hear it when I...
I see one near where I live. They had it the same time as I had my 182.
Ive always wondered what model it is as it has the silver badges on the door strips. Its also in silver.
b2 will be fine as you can remove the detector part and keep the GPS part. The Road Angel is all in one so that cant be done. Maybe covering the sensor or something would be enough.
To be honest, if they stopped detectors it would render the b2 pretty much useless as nearly all fixed cameras are very obvious now that they are yellow. Its the hand held devices its more useful against.
See this thread here mate: http://forum.cliosport.net/display_topic_threads.asp?ForumID=3&TopicID=125197&PagePosition=1Link
Ive got a b2 and Im very happy with it.
