I left it at home because it wouldn't start this morning, got back from work, took the battery out, put it on charge for about a minute as it was already fully charged. Put it back in the car, it turned over instantly.......Christ knows. :S

When the car's running, it's perfect with no electrical problems, all of it problems in the past and present are on start up. :dapprove: I'll get a multimeter on it and see if the alternator's the problem, then go from there.

The wipers are a little slower with just the ignition on and sometimes the windows are really slow, or do you mean when the headlight are on? I which case no, they work fine. The odd thing is, this is the car i've enjoyed the most, but also had the most problems with, it's like being married...

Bit worried about driving it to work tomorrow now, i've got visions of going back to my car and it not starting. :( I'll try and get hold of a multimeter to check if the alternator's charging the battery, other than that i'll need a grease monkey to look at it. Bloody French, good...

I've not a clue now, just put the battery back in and it fired up using both keys, I swear the cars pissed off with me because it's not been cleaned in a few months, I think the things haunted. Talking to myself FTW!!! ;)

Right it's not the battery, i've hooked that up to a charger and it was almost fully charged, when I tried to start the car this morning, all of the dash lights were flashing on and off and clicking like hell. I've done a search and similar problems by other members turned out to be an...

Turns out it was a flat battery, damn thing was dead this morning even though it's less than 6 months old, knowing my luck it'll be the alternator.

Ahh right, I thought it might be some kind of fancy Renault Sport one. Cracking seats btw. :cool:

I think i'll just say, I don't like it.........and leave it at that.

I like those, gear stick looks different, any pics?

Every now and again when I start the car, all the dash lights come on and the needles die, as soon as the engine's started they all go off and the needles return to normal. I plugged in my RSTuner but there were no faults present, well none that it could find anyway, the car runs fine with no...

Plugged my RSTuner in to find out why my dash looks like Blackpool illuminations on start up, no faults found. :dapprove: Put a piece of hose pipe in the rear exhaust bracket, it no longer dangles below the bumper, I love pikey fixes.:approve:

Bugger all. :( It pissed it down all day so I couldn't clean it or plug in my RST to figure out why the dash looks like a xmas tree on start up. Maybe tomorrow.

Another Mensa member selling a Clio. Although tbqfh, my car's way filthier on the inside, sadly it's not 200bhp though. ;)

Rookie mistake, you should have used bamboo, it's hollow so will cut down on weight.

Re: Does anyone have any special names for there car? The Filthy Rocket. Sometimes I describe it as a French tin bucket aswel. I never named any of the other cars i've owned as they didn't have a personality like the Clio.

Haven't seen one of those old Civics in years, and that is a bloody nice one.

That's alright mate, quite like it.

Out of all of them, i'll have the Defender. (Not counting the Vee of course)

It all depends on how much light they kick out, they need to be nice and bright at night. If you buy tinted rears then they'll more than likely be ok, but if you spray them yourself they'll probably not be bright enough at night. You'll probably be alright in Cov though lol, I see loads with...

I have no back seats, so mine does quite a good job of not letting the shopping slide into front under braking.

At some point i'd like an aftermarket steering wheel and seats, seeing as both contain airbags I wasn't sure what the deal was, looks like when I get round to it, all should be fine with it passing.....hopefully.

.

Anyone passed/failed because of an aftermarket steering wheel, as in no airbag fitted?

I've been trying to remember the name of this one since this thread started, it finally came to me when I was walking the dog this morning. So many memories.........R-Type. :approve: Whoever's playing this is sh*t though, I was loads better at this when I was a kid.

Perfect.

I like them, car's looking good mate. I do miss having a nice VAG car sometimes.

Looking through some of these youtube vids is like being reunited with an old friend you've not seen in years. Two of the best snes games ever.

I wouldn't trust Renault to make me a cup of tea without f*cking it up, hopefully you've got a decent dealership near you and all will be fine, the ones i've delt with couldn't find there own arsehole with a map.

Sweet!!! I'll keep an eye on this thread then mate, sounds like it'll be a monster. :evil:
