Ops!
Think I’ve just a little addicted to driving. Some how since Easter I’ve managed to clock up 10k miles on my 172/197. Trips around France, then back to Le Mans, plus the weekly commute to the Southwest from the Home Counties hasn’t helped. Just been going though my credit card...
Don't think so. The old one rang a few times. The base unit and the phone usually ring together,but when it rang only the base until made a noise, which would indicate the phone is dead.
Bit random but here we go....
Came back from my usual weekend away in the Southwest, and couldn't find my cordless house phone, assume the battery was flat after i'd left it off charge since thursday night.
Turned the house upside down to try and find it but no joy, so popped to Tesco and...
^^yep^^
My lady friend now drives mine and goes on and on about the rubbish position and the heavy clutch etc, although she likes the 'weighted' steering.
I had my girls '04 1.4 Fiesta TDCi thing last week, put about 500 miles on it, then jumped back in my Clio on saturday. Clio didn't feel especially quick although the speedo said otherwise. Must to used to it by now.

Thats not my car, it belongs to 'skiddemon' who works around the south east, i took that shot when I spotted him at my old workplace. He lives in Stevenage but travels about a fair bit so its not impossible its him.
^^ there geniune Trophy wheels mate^^
Got a quick update:
Rang the garage this morning who now have the car, explained what had happened etc, anyway I enquired as to how much they charge per hour for labour and its roughly half what I pay in Bedfordshire so I'll be getting the clutch...
I think RS Clios are soon becoming the new Alfa in terms of the rollercoaster of emotions the owner gets!
Driving down with my girlfriend to her place in Cornwall, we find a cracking and the car couldn't be better. Fast forward 2 hours....
And we driving through what I'd described a bit of a...
Never go back to a car you've already owned, its never the same second time around, unless your going to tune it, but thats just a waste of money anyway.
Stick with the Clio, find a back road and rape it, then you'll remember why you bought it and love it.
