Hopefully it doesnt cost a alot for you then :) mind you, you said it was a 52 plate still going after 16 years is very good, I know what you mean, just spent £350 on a new exhaust system as the other was rotting away and had a massive hole in it, that left a hole in my pocket...
Looks good there, couldnt tell the difference apart from the sunroof, but even with the sunroof, it looks pretty cool with it... like the tinted rear windows, I think it looks even better seeming as the car is black, being bias as I have a black 182 ;)
No problem :) how long have you had your car? If you have had it for a while have you noticed anything to with the transmission not feeling right or has it only happened since the pothole?
Could be something to do with the gearbox then, I mean I dont know for certain, just my guess if its making a noise in 3rd gear and the gear stick is shaking, then thats what springs to mind that its your gearbox
Welcome, it could be one of the belts that is squeeking, if it still squeeks, put your engine on and lift your bonnet to determine where abouts it is coming from
Been having the same problems myself, seems to be harder to start if its very warm weather, I have heard its some sort of sensor for the engine that needs cleaning that usually foxes the problem :)
Its a clio sport... there is a higher chance it has been ragged with its previous owners anyway... cheap and fun, and although im the 12 th owner, it has passed its mot 3 years in a row without any advisories, which I think is pretty good for a 14 year old car haha
If it has the xenon headlights check the ballast... they have a tendency to fail and dipped healights wont work, the ballast fail usually when water is present to them... apart from what you and everyone else has said... also check the exhaust, if its rotted away can cost you between £300 to...
I know picture is awful, will get some better ones soon... I dont think it is a cup to be honest, just a 182 with the cup front splitter... has the xenons, speed limiter climate control...
Was driving home late/ early hours of the morning should I say, had a cop follow me, went along a 30 road, then a 40 and then a 60, just kept my speed at a sensible speed, it kinda felt like they were presuring me to go faster, but I didnt bother, they turned off eventually...
The auto lights come on when it is dark enough, so it could be simply be that its dark so the auto lights will come on... always happens when I go under a trainline bridge :P
