hate mud flaps with a passion. theres a white micra going round with these like flexible red ones that swing back as he accelerates, looks ridiculous. useful i suppose i the winter but wouldnt have them on in summer.

Sad story, sorry to hear about this tragic accident. Unlucky for the old guy, glad youre ok. Puts everything else into perspective, only takes a split second for a mistake that wrecks lives.

Simoniz Bumper Black, swear by it.

do as Jay says, with the calipers too, put grease on the bits of the calipers that the edge of the pads touch, stopped my squeaky brakes. Dont go overboard with it though, you dont want it getting on the pads or discs.

chris, 27, gold (rare 130bhp) vts, only done 115 in it, no real point of any more, should be good for 130, was still pulling hard for a 1.6 http://erc.qmuc.ac.uk/cliosport/gallery/full/1078254109__Dadsbedroomwidnowview.jpg no offence but i doubt any of those 1.2s were a true 115...

id take them out and try copper grease on the back, sounds daft but often helps. costs about £4 a tube

thanks for all the replies guys. as for the leather gear stick - forget it! shes actually in need of geting rid of the leather steering wheel while still retaining airbag - shes a strict veggie!

dont worry, if i had known this when my snapped id have done it myself. :oops:

shouldnt matter how much engine is in the way. the cable feeds through a housing that you slide in from the pedal end and it automatically pops out at the clutch end.

does that every morning in my saxo. car parked outside on drive, hand brake on not too tight but enough to prevent car rolling back. old rt did the same, just slight rust building up through over night damp. rust develops really quick on brakes, ever noticed it when you wash your car?

copper grease on the backs of the pads helps reduce it.

Thanks mate, actual nuts or the cap securing thing? Ill tell her to get a set of McGards like Ive got (as well as the Citroen ones)regardless.

My sister has just bought a 1.2 16v 03 Dynamique in black. She doesnt get it until April (dont ask) and hasnt driven it yet (again, dont ask) but shes signed for it and is happy. Some things shes not sure of (nor am I), do they have factory fit alarm or just immobiliser? Does it come with...

got a clutch cable supplied and fitted on my RT for £40, wouldnt have thought a williams would be much more. think its the magic williams word effect. doubles the price instantly.

truly truly awful, but clios are the new saxos remember id die of embarassment in that thing

Just dont drive fast and brake smoothly. Juddering brakes is often a sign of warped discs, but if youve had them replaced....

Id take it back tomorrow. Could be pad not seated correctly.

Lovely wheels! Sounds ok, depends how much I suppose.

Embro where you from?

Me in a 1.6 16v vts, £30 gets me around 300 miles with harshish driving.

im sure that was the same one going for £14000 (was it 14?) a few weeks back, obviously fell through

dont think itd affect an mot having different size tyres. my mams has 155/65/13s and 165/55/13s on here fiesta! guy over the road has four different tyres and both passed mot. i think they just look at the tread depth, possibly pressure too.

Is that the Mike Brewer one with the de de de dee dee dee music?

Plonker rang back - doesnt get that channel! Somebody upload it!!!

Phone call to Pops, just hope he knows how to set the VCR.

the 40 is the tyre profile (height) surely so wouldnt make a difference. the 205 is the width of the tyre. If anything id have thought it may cause slight understeer but wouldnt affect ride height

do you need to take the lid off the brake fluid tank to allow the fluid to move up properly? its just I once did my discs on my old RT and they were sticking really bad, even though i pushed the piston in. had to embarrassingly take it into a garage to put right!

Do you need to bleed the brake pipes or whatever? Surely putting new pads in will mean when youre not pressing the brake pedal, theyll stick and get hot?!:oops:

I got £700 for a similar K reg RT (though at trade in) FSH with 108k miles, 3 weeks tax and mot. Probably get £1000-1500 dependant on service history and miles.
