    Help...dash lights

    I find my Mk2 does the same thing under very hard cornering and when on a rolling road. It tends to be one or both of the rear wheels isnt moving. When corning that hard the inside rear has a tendancy to leave the road. It could have been that?

    Would ABS have helped you

    ABS only ever comes into play in extreme circumstances when on the road. Then it could be the difference between an accident or not. Its not how fast you can pump anyway, its usually a case of "f**k hit the pedal!!" If you are braking that hard the reason for it is usually because something...

    Headlight Washers

    Dont bother getting Renault to do it, just buy yourself a new one. They cost about £7 and pop the ball out, and pop it into the existing one. I did it a couple of months ago and its still there. Id rather do that than risk Renault taking my dam bumper off. I know _KDF did it months ago and...

    Performance panel filter

    Ive got an ITG panel in my 172. I previously had a Pipercross one until it fell to bits!! No problems so far with the ITG one, seems very well made.

    Insurance sorted - the Magnex stays

    I decided if Im going to keep the Clio a little longer then the exhaust has to stay too. I couldnt live with it being so quiet without it. Ive called around 10 insurance companies with me finally settling with Tesco who have charged me £912.45 with a £350 XS. This is everything including...

    How important is running a car in

    I would never buy an ex demo. Ive driven plenty of brand new demos and given them so much stick!!! Like a 200 mile on the clock Impreza P1!! They dont get warmed up, they dont get run in. Id steer clear personally. Thats my thoughts on it anyway. I hate the thought that some kids has...

    172 trade in value

    Thats what I thought, loosing £2.6k in a year over 15550 miles isnt so bad. What was that against? I suspect a lot has to do with the car you are buying. CTRs dont get discounted so they will give a slightly better P/X by the looks of things.

    Same for me, it frustrates as much as it excites.

    Re fitting OE 172 exhaust

    Sounds good to me, shame Im pushed for time. I need to get it done before next month, but Im out and about every weekend for the next month and a half. Ramps would be a godsend, but I think Im going to have to do it on my neighbours little ramps on the drive next Saturday morning. :(

    Re fitting OE 172 exhaust

    My insurance always is harsh, I think I was ear marked as a nutter from an early age. :( I just want to pay less than a grand before Im 30. :( Nice one Has. You actually have one of the collars there? Maybe I could meet you somewhere one evening and buy it off you? Ive just dragged the...

    Re fitting OE 172 exhaust

    A couple of reasons really. One is Im being screwed on insurance where ever I seem to go. So taking it off is going to save me there. Also Im thinking of swapping the car in April/May and the dealer wont want the exhaust. So I figured Id kill two birds with one stone and do it before my renewal.

    Re fitting OE 172 exhaust

    One other thing. When Fred took yours off he didnt cut it, as mine was cut am I going to need anything more to re fit mine?

    172 trade in value

    Insurance is around £100 a year more. I almost bought a Type R this time last year when I got the Clio. It was always going to happen I guess. Its not definite Ill do it, I need to have a word at work first but its pretty likely. Yup, the dealer is just down the road from Motorhouse 2000...

    172 trade in value

    Thats what I thought. Ill put the standard exhaust back on and get a few quid for the Magnex which should cover the increase in insurance.
