Sounds like the immobiliser.

Talk to Renault Wolverhampton in the traders section, if it's a part that can be replaced they'll have it.

You wish.

Yep, it's the nipple thing sticking up on the right of the grill plate, just next to the sticker, you might want to check it's wires and make sure it's still plugged in. You could also hold it down and lock your car to see if it still works.

Is the plastic shut button thing still in it's place under the bonnet?

Yep, or one of the doors isn't shut properly.

Only problem with that though is you're spending more than the car's worth on a single mod, there's no doubt it's a great mod but when the cost of buying it and getting it fitted is the same as buying another 172 you can see why not many people do it.

Holy sh*t, we need vids of this thing in action.

I don't think BTCC cars are this well engineered.

Sorry mate i've got other stuff planned for the weekend now.

I'm not making this either, 25-40 quid to get in and race, 20/30 quid on fuel, 20/30 quid on booze and food for camping, can't really afford to spunk 80/90 quid up the wall on a weekend jolly.

Sh*t tyres give you understeer, put decent rubber on them and they turn in like a house fly, unless you're going too fast of course but that's down to sh*t driving rather than the car.

I have considered putting a 90 degree bend on mine so it sits right up against the grill to channel air directly into it, but I don't want rain water to be blown in.

I haven't had any back seats in mine for years mainly due to owning a German Shepherd, i've lined the back of mine with a big hevey duty non slip rubber mat, it's as wide as the car and is nearly long enough to reach the tail gate, I haven't cut mine to fit the contours of the car but it could...

Yes, pointing to the right.

Get rid of the hoses and leave the box open, if you look at the right side of the front grill there's a little channel that feeds air directly into the engine where the boxes intake hole is, i've been running mine like that for years and never suffered with reduced power due to heat soak.

You might have to set your tent up before you go on track and leave all your crap in there, they'll be people camping on the Friday night so you won't be alone.

It'll be the coilovers that have ruined it, I bet if you went to cup dampers and Eibach springs most of the rattles would go away.

It hold 3 litres do I doubt you've lost it all otherwise your drive would be covered, you can't really check the level apart from buying a litre of oil, undoing the plastic screw on the front of the box and topping it up until it leaks out, then you know you have the right amount, it's a very...

Make sure you look over your shoulder the next time go you into the woods. There's alot of inexpensive things you can do to these cars that improve and optimise their performance, to say don't bother and save your money implies Renault have done an absolutely perfect job in the first place and...

Arse licker.

Is it me or does that drag strip go straight over the edge of a cliff? Is it just an eight of a mile?

They're sh*t out the box, f*ck all power before 5k rpm, too much body roll and a pea shooter exhaust that rots off as soon as it's gets wet.

I'd buy a car that already had all the modifications I intended on doing because it would a damn sight cheaper doing them myself. But assuming I had a standard car i'd do the exact same things again : Brembo HC discs and pads Braided steel brake lines with good quality brake fluid Eibach...

Probably not, I haven't had a drink in quite a while, so if I suddenly started knocking it back i'd probably get alcoholic poisoning.

I'll probably book it closer to the date, I won't be doing any track time as the car needs too much work to safely blast about lap after lap.

Are your farts really that bad?

Roadkill's always had sponsorship from Dickies so that's not something that bothers me, what bothers me is that wasn't a Roadkill episode, just because it says Roadkill and has the two of them in it doesn't mean it is, Roadkill is about taking total death traps usually from a junk yard, cramming...

Such a good noise, good investment too it's only ever going to go up in value.
