I was driving home the other night and some guy took a picture of the back of my car as I drove past. I thought he may have been taking a picture of his van parked on the road, but he seemed to wait for me to go past. Knowing my luck Ill get a charge for ram raiding or something through the...

I got a very good trade in for mine. :D

When I told me insurance company all they wanted to know was "is it right hand drive, and has it got an alarm fitted to the same rating as if it were a UK car". Tesco didnt even want to know those two things!

Quote: Originally posted by AlexJMills on 30 November 2004 I just wondered that was all. Im not disputing anyone but I would be surprised if the place I bought it from actually have the ability to install an alarm. The reason I say this is that they are simply a car supermarket and dont have...

If the import centre fitted the alarm its most likely the same Cobra unit they fit before the cars head off to the main dealers. My old import had the alarm fitted by Motorpoint so had a Sigma one, which was better than the one I have now!

The alarm will most likely have been fitted by where you purchased it from though, and not the Import centre. Renault never argued about warranty would on my 172.

If it wasnt brought over here by Renault UK it will always be seen as an import and will always be worth less. My 172 was an import from Motorpoint. Come trade in time I got a grand less than if it had been a Renault UK supplied car. Of course I paid a lot less for it so was quids in...

Quote: Originally posted by Viv172 on 30 November 2004 Is the internal temp display correct?? When the sensor broke (in the wing mirror) on my car it messed up the inside temp.. Same happened with my 172 at just 3 weeks old.

Was this using it in auto mode? If you do it manually then it shouldnt use the cabin temperature sensor so if you put it up to 26 or whatever max is, it should blow hot air.

Mine is blowing warm air within a couple of minutes and is toasty warm within a short space of time. I drove in with it set at 20 degrees this morning as it was too hot on 22 and I was nodding off.

Out of those 3, Id go Contis also.

They get quite a lot louded once its been thrashed. Still nothing like the Magnex I had on the 172 though, but I prefer it like this now.

White looks terrible against Silver. I photoshopped some white Compos onto Pootles car the other week.

Almost as common as 182s. LOL

Ive had an Origin B2 in both my 172 and then moved it to the 182. Does the trick perfectly. Unlike the Road Angel which is all in one the B2 is seperates. This way you can remove the laser detector should they be made illegal and also place the GPS receiver in the back to get a good lock...

Impreza has bugger all room in the back. Octavia isnt a bad choice, and neither is the Mondeo ST200. Its quick and fun to drive.

Ive also had numerous people commment on how nice the seats are in the Clio. Even my nan commented on how well it goes, but then she even loved the Magnex I had on the 172!! Bless.

hahaha Oooops sorry. ;)

Welcome to Cliosport. Where abouts are you?

My mate had his Impreza Turbo delocked by the dealer from new for security reasons!!! As Pete, I only have a key hole on the passenger side. Talk to someone at Elephant who has a clue, if there is someone. It took me 3 calls to Tesco before I got someone last time!

Its like the wheel in any other Clio which isnt a 172 or 182. Same size and shape, just not leather and no rubber inserts, and of course no Renaultsport badge.

Welcome to Cliosport.

I drove one a few weeks ago. Its the same as my 182 with Cup packs only without the nice seats. Its sad, but the one thing I didnt like was the steering wheel, that little bit of rubber on the 172/182 wheel is perfect. The wheels is just plastic and doesnt have those in the 182 Cup.

I think Id have driven it through the show room window by now. I certainly dont think Id have been able to keep my cool. I hope you get it sorted or come to some arrangement with your dealer. I had Rover 200Vi a long time ago.....6 months old and an incurable oil leak. In the end I...

Freds mate did a set for me, and I can vouch for the quality of the finish.
