8-9K on Clio engine mods? F*ck that!! I'd just buy a faster car instead, one that can lay a decent amount of power down without the gearbox exploding.

Sh*tting Hell!!

There you go dude, gives you an idea of what it'll look like, hope that's ok for you.

Sorry mate forgot you did them. 519 FTW!!! :cool:

JamSport are in Northampton, I had my inlets matched there. Although I think their stated figure of 8-13bhp gain is a little optimistic. http://www.jam-sport.co.uk/home/renault-clio-182/engine-performance/air-filters-inlets/renault-clio-rs-modified-inlet.html

I asked my local MOT place the same question, they said alot of the MOT additions get revised as they are often unworkable. They said as far as they're concerned if you have a steering wheel fitted and it's airbag is faulty it's a fail, if they had a car in with an aftermarket steering wheel...

FFS!!! If that's legit i'd have bought it, my gearbox exploded and I paid £270 for a replacement and it'll cost me the best part of £500 to get it fitted with new mounts and clutch. I could have just driven around in that one, or taken the box out of it to fix mine, and just stored the £500...

I've always thought that if they think a car looks good like that, what does their other half look like? 'Yeah my Mrs/Bloke looks well fit', when they actually look like the Elephant man.

FJ05 *** (I think) Today 6:20pm outside the Nisa corner shop, Bell Green Rd.

That's the problem i'm afraid, I don't think Brentacre like people that are under 25. 18-25 are the most dangerous years for young drivers, insurance commpanies don't like you because you all crash.;)

I'm with Brentacre and they said to me I can do whatever I like to the car, as long as I declare it wont cost a penny more, as long as I don't exceed 180bhp. I've found insuring a modified car is cheaper than a standard one, Direct Line, Churchill, etc wanted piss take money, where as the...

Front badge isn't big enough.:S

^^Now you're just being silly!! We all know that's impossible.

I know viynal wraps aren't anything new, but i've often wondered what a 1*2 would look like in matte silver. No-one's attempted a Clio convertable Mini style, if i'd have won that 177 mill euromillions i'd have done one for the laugh.

At 18 I had a skateboard, I didn't pass my test until I was 26. I'd have killed myself at 18 in a 182, I was dangerous enough on a skateboard. Wait untill he has to insure it himself, £3,000? That's if any of them will touch him. LOL

You may think almost £2quid for a washer is a piss take, but it's cheaper than a sandwich and it'll last longer. I had a baguette today that cost over £4quid FFS!! Thank f*ck my boss paid for it.:D

What if he sticks tints, a massive backbox, body kit and hideous Halfords alloys on it, you'll wish he'd wrapped it round a tree then.

Pretty much answered your own question mate, as long as it is only coming from the sump plug, then the washer's to blame.

What are recites? Do you mean receipts?

I've just put these on the front of mine and for the few weeks the car was working I thought they were great, when I was doing 70mph on a duel carriageway and it suddenly pissed down I was glad I had them. Although to be fair anything is better than the 2.5mm I had on my PE2s.

Best thing to do is clean all the oil off the engine, then after a decent drive have a look under the bonnet for any fresh oil. I did this and tracked my oil leak down to a rocker cover bolt that was a bit loose and was weaping a little.

Oh my that's hideous, but probably very practical so fair enough. Tbh though, if I was going to buy a car that's sole duty was to be puked in, bogeys wiped on it and have have chocolate, crisps & jam sandwiches rubbed into the upholstery, that's what i'd expect it to look like.

Sainsbury's roundabout Courthouse Green (A444), about 1:20pm today. You won't have seen me as I was a pedestrian with a large German Shepard, scaring the locals.:evil:

I pretty sure that gear knob is for a mk3, the listing says Clio 2006-2008, so I doubt it will fit your 182. This is what you need. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Renault-Clio-172-182-Leather-Gear-Knob-BRAND-NEW-/120762411212?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item1c1e0028ccyour Or you...

Here's the original thread that started everyone using the Skoda splitters, there's loads of pages but don't let that put you off, as there's loads of pics of them fitted aswell...

It looks like a Peugeot 406 splitter because it bulges out. Skoda splitters do take a bit of modifying, but it's just a case of cutting the end of the tabs off, and then getting some self tapping screws and starting in the middle and working your way to the ends, then you just cut the excess of...

Heres a guy blasting his badges at point blank range! Heres a guy with a mentally powerful pressure washer blasting his sills If you type plastidip into youtube, there's loads of vids of people coating all manner of things including wheels, and peeling the stuff off when they want a change.

Can you get a pic of your splitter? From your description is sounds like you may have a Skoda Fabia splitter on there already, if so £12quid will get you a new one.

I blew the welds on the intake once, I also dropped a cog the other week, 5th gear exploded at 70mph, at that point you could have blown me away on a childs tricycle.

What was the brief/job you were given, family portraits for personal use by the family, or are they going to be used commercially aswell, as in an advert or an editorial in a magazine? Bucket and spade shot is spot on.
