A French special, the lift to reverse! Learn the car before you modify it. If you're talking headlights, xenons. If you sign up for membership on here you get access to the cars/parts for sale and they come up quite frequently and as it's from members of the club you can 9/10 times grab...

Welcome to the forum mate! Insurance will cain you on any mods at the minute so just enjoy the freedom of being able to drive, and more importantly get used to driving!

By "pictures of old cars" he means p**n. Don't help him, he's filthy.

Nice share mate!

Yep, expensive indeed. Just flexis, gearbox really. Then make sure you do all your normal checks, check on belt history etc.

Some of the early 2007 models had a dodgy gearbox where the synchromesh fails afaik and need replacing. If you opt for the 197, when test driving it, get your revs about 5000rpm in 3rd gear and then change to 4th to see if there is any crunching. Mines an early 2007 and my gearbox is spot on -...

Yeah, there's a couple of issues with a 197. Exhaust flexis, mpg & gearbox. Same with any cars however, they all have their pros and cons.

My 197 MPG flutters between 19MPG & 24MPG.

Isn't there x amount of time you have to report it to insurers? Letter would long it out. Just pop over there.

If you're 21+, been driving for 2 years, speak to @Neil@greenlight in regards to insuring you on a 197/200. 197's can be had cheap enough but it may just be the insurance that stings you.

Couldn't tell you to be honest mate, I will have a word with him though and see if/when he can fit you in etc! Leave it with me!

Think they're the only ones. I'm meant to be seeing Woody this Friday to lend him something so could ask him for you if you want?

Love storm grey! Welcome back to CS.

Stick up a new thread, a project one. Put as many photos as you can up, list your plans and update it as and when you do anything to it. People can also give you personal advice in there also. This is where you'll want to make the thread mate; http://www.cliosport.net/forums/clio-projects.82/

Ah, when I said welcome to 2011, although the car is a bit marmite, I wasn't on about that! The last post before yours was in 2011 in this thread! ;) What are your plans for it? Not a bad car, just enjoy it and don't go mad on the MoDz!

Welcome to 2011 mate! Gold? Are you the guy who got given it by his parents? ( Remember reading something about this? )

Welcome to CS mate

Door knocking in his scrap metal van I assume? ;) Nice buy Ian!

Yeah, been playing this for ages now. Max'd my level out at one point until they released more. Not a fan of this Star Trek quest tho.

Seen a silver one parked outside my bosses gaff a few times but saw this one today a bit further down the road. No CS sticker but anyone on here? Sure we've had a play down Drift Road before.

Welcome to CS @Danmarcwalker ! Will keep you posted regarding meets. Not sure the go-kart one will happen as not enough interest so will need to arrange something else for you lot.

Sterling job! Spot on!

Brilliant news mate! Would have been devastated if you cancelled it. Reason being is that I've spent a tonne of money on fast car stickers and I'm already hyped on my monster energy drink while I sit here in my new era 59 snapback and drainpipe jeans eagerly awaiting a drink with @Goodj !

Na, about right. It's hard to ruin your tints to be honest.

Think I paid £120 for mine at Phantom Tinting in Kent on my 197 with 10 year gaurantee. The price you've been quoted is about right.

Ah, my 197 is "L33" but nimbus silver.

@PP172 - tried the smaller socket or a reverse thread socket on the end of an impact gun? Wouldn't work for me solely because the 197 locking nuts have a spinning collar on. The only other option was to weld a socket to the centre of mine but the TyreWise guys had a pin socket which they hammed...

This is my last thread regarding wheel nuts as they're now off and I've got my spare set (& key!) but the guy from Tyrewise has just come and removed them using a socket with pins in and a torque wrench. He was battering the socket on to the nut, literally battering it to the extent the car...

lol, no one was pressing the horn!
