Well now i know i've seen Chris n Nic , even though i didn't know it was them i'll keep an eye out for you .

^^^^ If yours is an iceberg silver mk2 172 the paint codes 640 mate .

Ooops sorry , typo , i mean't early to mid 20's ;)

Crikey . I would :) Its not as aggresive as Wonder wheels mate .Don't knock it 'til ya try it ! I saw somebody on detailingworld mention they have used it and it was fine so if its good enough for them its good enough for me :rasp:

I saw a cup about a week or so ago at the traffic lights at the bottom of Bolton rd going towards Blackburn . The guy had black hair and a shortish beard / few days growth with a baseball cap on early to mid 30's ;) , think they had a bird in the front seat . Is that you ??

Its definitely not a feature that you will use alot tbh .So i wouldn't bother mate , too much hassle i'd say .I never use the speed limiter , why would ya , lol .I use the cruise control on the odd occasions , never had it in my 172 and wouldn't miss it if i didn't have it.

I've just tried Aldis own version of Fairy power spray , its called Magnum power spray and its 99p opposed to the Fairy power spray at around £3.50 . Spray it on , leave for 10 mins then hose it off . Its not really mean't for painted surfaces so make sure the alloys are in good condition...

Bit Torrent for me for the usual stuff , www.araditracker.com first port of call for torrents , then mininova , pirate bay etc ... Soulseek for music , especially some older more obscure stuff . Mirc for all...

Yep that sounds like me Chris .What do you drive again ? I never seem to spot anyone , must be goin round in a daydream , lol .

Whats a tea bag stain and where are they ? You get 3 years warranty on defective paintwork .

I used the quick detailer over the wax . I even tried doing half the bonnet and half the roof as a comparison and i couldn't see any visible difference . Only thing i have noticed is that when it rains the dust does seem to wash off more than before i used the quick detailer so i guess thats a...

^^^^ A bit confused there Rich :S You said it works , as in not attracting dust then you said it was " dusty as hell " when you got back from FCS . My cars ok for a day or so after a good wash , wax , anti static QD , but within a few days its back to having a fine coating of dust just as it...

Rattles - Clio ! You avin a laff ;)

Hairdryer then clean up any residue with WD40 .

Tbh i dont think the chemical guys anti static QD is that anti static . Granted it is an excellent QD , but i haven't noticed any difference , i still get dust on the car , i think it must be the nature of the wax that attracts the dust more readily. Can't fault the chemical guys products...

On the actual radiator or the grill ?

Wasn't the original Wiiliams a limited run ?

Bearing in mind the Willys are like 10 years old i would say they have held their price really well .Imo i don't even think that the trophys will hold their price that well , after all its a French tin box aimed at a limited market , so i don't think any of the Clios ,whether it be Trophys ,V6's...

When i went to ATS after my back box dropped of they said they could only get exhausts from Renault and fit them . Tbh mate the cheapest option in the long run would be to get an aftermarket stainless cat back . I had powerflow make me a stealth exhaust for my 172 , it was an exact copy of...

If you can;t find any at your local scrap yard , you could try contacting one of these Renault breakers : http://www.cliospares.co.uk/ http://renault-spare-parts.com/index.php?main_page=index http://www.freewebs.com/usedcarparts/

^^^^ No problem . Thats all there is in the manual mate . You might be better of contacting toad direct , see if they can send you a pdf file .

Scanners not working so had to take em with my camera . Hope they are readable .

Sounds like you might be making some progress with Renault at last Ladysarah . Hope they fix it for ya this time ;)

Unbolt the caliper . Usually you need a 13mm spanner and a 17mm spanner , check that the slider is not rusty , if it is , clean it up with some emery cloth and regrease it .

Fcuk , thats a good deal . What colour are ya gettin ? Lovin the 225's alot more than i used to , gettin a bit more used to the ass end on them now .

I think admits is gettin a bit confused , lol . But he is right about Cypriot imports not having the full 3 year warranty , also cars sourced from Holland only have 12 months warranty . Don't ask me why , thats what Renault UK say if you phone them .

Is the lack of power right through the rev range , or just up to a certain revs then it seems to pick up ?? I had a lack of power on my 172 up to about 3k , then it would be ok . Turned out to be the spark plugs , the car had only done 30k at the time . And please everybody don't say they are...

My old 172 never needed a top up in 48k , changed every 6k .

Fcukin hell Alan , you been through a plague of flies or what , lol . Dubai182 - try wd40 mate . Read the faqs here : http://www.wd40.com/Brands/wd40_faqs.html

Are you 100% sure the 225's from motorpoint are cypriot imports admits ? I'm not doubting your word , just wondered where you got the info from ? Tbh the salesmen at motorpoint don't know their arse from the elbows .When i got my 182 from motorpoint in February they said i had 24 months...
