    How big can I go ?

    You'll top out at about 102 on a dci 65 maybe 110 on the 80 (this is realy speed not clock speed) So there no point in bigger tyrs you just don't have the power you'd need about 130hp to get 120hp maybe more power plus you need to stay in the power band which when remapped seems to be about 4k...

    service and airbag light

    The SERV and AIRBAG lights come on its a common problem (almost every has it) its due to the wiring of the pretensioners going to an open circuit. Fiddle with the wires under the seat an the problem will go away. On the early cars the solution is to look under each of the seats. You will see a...

    Brembo disks and standard pads

    1.5hrs to get the fitted if you take your time so say £60 put people on here will do it for less its not difficult. No discount as far as I know I think there very good value anyway. Stock setups not bad at all very well priced and no nasty dust etc plus no insurance implications.

    R-Sport group N chip

    Its not that easy Renault Clip laptops allow you to upload new ECU files but unless you can get hold of a suitable remap (and you cannot) then its useless. Renault specialist tunners who can remap cars are better off. Group N maps arn't ideal there just slightly modified maps with higher rpm...

    What Discs?

    Stock setups great realy if you've no problems keep with it and get the brembo disk as there cheaper than standard Renault ones (£55 from yozzaspsort I think vs £75 from Renault). Stock pads are only £40 or so.

    Coilover Advice..

    I wouldn't think so at all that 2.0 levels look st what the 172 get with those mods % wise it would get a 172 to about 190hp (less than 25% more power) a 1.6 is 110. 25% more is 137 or so. To do a 172 transplant the price includes all the bits you need you need the whole lot clocks, engine...

    silly question.. but Petrol light...

    Should go on with 5 liters left in the tank but you can have anywhere between 4 and 6 realy due to tolerances in the tank sensor. I can do about 80 miles I think according to the tank never checked though.

    Warranty Question

    Renault dealers claim the cost of repairs back from Renault for all the years of the warently so the dealer has to be sure they'll get paid. Otherwise the dealer will have done the work and won't get paid. Thats whay they don't like mods as they maybe to blame hence they won't gget paid back...

    is it worth paying so much insurance for a 172?

    Age doesn't seem to make a huge differene it does depend on other factors all this about huge drops at 20/21/22 etc I've yet to see.

    is it worth paying so much insurance for a 172?

    Personally its one of the reason I've not got a 172/182 costs are very high particulaly if like me you do a load of miles. Paying over £1k for insurance seems a waste IMO its £3 a day for what insurance nothing else there are other things to spend your money on.

    Whats it worth?

    How about an LPG conversion half the price fule so you cna have the 182 and get diesel MPG?
