    New gearbox in my Cup

    the suspension knocks on my clio, not a cup or 172 but is a mk3. They passed it off as a broken engine mount the first two visits. They replaced that (so they said) but still get the noise. Problem is with Renault service its a case of 1 step forward 2 back. When your stuck at work all day its...

    Cup dealer options

    Think this is probably going to be the toughest decision ever silver or blue, pros and cons on both sides. Like walking into a ferrari showroom and ordering a yellow one!

    Was thinking that as well to be honest, after all you can get any clio in silver, but only the cup in that blue. hmm decisions.....

    cup testdrive

    Ah £10990 what a bargain!!! They are pre-reg though so wouldnt expect a dealer to match that price on a new one.

    How much should i pay for Oil+Filter

    Its cheaper to do it yourself!! plus doesnt take that long! Also then no mechanic at Renault get to touch the car- another Bonus! Just order the filter from Renault then...... Mobil 1 is almost half the UK price in France! Forget going on a booze cruise, hire a van and bring back gallons of...

    Part Xchange Quote

    Was Quoted £5500 for my black dci dynamique against a new Cup. However friend fancies the car - 65mpg after all - and offered £6250. Its done 25000 miles and on 51 plate. Im fairly happy with that, as it seems to be roughly its value.
