it has a cam, it has a belt!!! lol

its early days so need to see whats happening first, consumer direct have told me that obviously a product has to be fit for purpose and durable, mine falls under the durability issue, and ive offered to have it put right, after putting my concerns to renault uk about the fact i didnt trust the...

also, consumer direct says they can either offer a replacement which must be 100% like for like (unless the customer agrees to otherwise) or a refund. From looking on the website it seems Albi blue is no longer available? so if it does go to that then its likely going to have to be refund or me...

yeah its just a waiting game see what happens, for anyone in a simmilar situation, consumer direct are awesome and really know their stuff. he took all the details, gave me a ref number and told me to call back if i have any issues. i didnt even think about the finance company previously but...

mk2 clio i assume? if you can find a 100 in your price range snap it up, if not 80's are still very good, rare though so you generally need to accept the colour/spec you get! with 65's you get a choice of colours/spec because there is plenty about. dont be put off with higher millage, look for...

awesome!!! bigger wheels is all my GT DCi106 lacked and it would have been perfect! and recaros!

tracking was out on the car, took it to a suspension geometry specialist today who confirmed the full geometry was out of alignment due to the subframe not being fitted back on properly (passengers front wheel is 7mm closer to the rear of the car than the drivers front) so ive got a full report...

Arnold clark couldnt get me a curtisy car for 2 weeks and want the car for 2 days to put right, so phoned RUK who are paying for another hire car for me on monday. getting somewhere!

thanks buddy, ill get the ball rolling in the morning see where we stand, they cant get it in for gear linkage fault for 2 weeks as they have no curtisy cars and need it for a few days (LOL! they get better every time)

full refund and cost price meg 265 would be a fair outcome lol!!!!

well looks like its getting traded in then, waiting on RUK getting back to me just contacted them

snip the fuel line and throw a match at it, be my last clio, after 7!!

going to phone consumer direct see what they say, if i get no where with the dealer with a rejection or refund then its getting traded in!!

but there isnt anything wrong with the physical gearbox its related to the same problem, gearbox was removed during engine change and not fitted/setup properly.

that was my way of looking at it, the sale of goods acts mentions you must give the seller 3 chances to rectify it within a resonable time scale before you can reject it, so id imagine engine change was 1, and then 2 chances to sort the linkage before rejection.

most of the stuff i can find online is basically saying you can only reject it after giving the dealership 3 chances to rectify the problem, but thats about as much as i can find

RUK arn't being much help either apart from getting me a curtisy car as the dealership couldnt. just looking at other options as im going to loose a bit if i trade it in for something else.

ok so most will have saw the thread about my 200, i bought it pre registered with 5 miles on the clock on the 30th of December, 2 months and 2500 miles later it suffered full engine failure, i gave the dealership a chance to rectify it, 2 weeks later it had a brand new engine, however the...

apparently the flat spot isnt a problem when pushing on as i beleive its under 3000rpm but drivability around town is going to suffer massively

anyone else from over this way fancy meeting me and Joe (if hes still going) at stirling services for a wee convoy, Wee Shawzy was talking about boosting thru with us too dunno if shes still up for it or not?

i struggled to shift my minter for £1800

if it was me id buy a nice standard 172/182 - make sure its running full health and enjoy it. then at a later date some cheap mods - fresh set of genuine dampers, sportline springs, new track rods and ends, geometry setup, decent pads and a brake fluid change all of them will sharpen it up...

my mates just bought a MINT mugen kit DC5 to sell on, well hes in 2 minds to keep or sell as he already has a DC2 track car and i think has fell in love with the DC5 lol!

very nice! i think it suits the black wheels and blue stripes!

im coming if the 200 hasnt blown up again by then, think Joe is coming in his new focus too!

i use mine every change, never get out of first around town. makes it kinda hard when i get into another car as i forget to change gear.

not quite that extreme i would imagine but thats the general idea, thats what you want on a turbo car with the torque to pull through it!

lol, what a sack

lol aye ur 172 still for sale? haha

JC5 DCi 80 box is ur best bet, no stronger than the 172 box but better suited ratios
