Hmmmm ... saw one of these outside my house earlier on this evening. Blokes driving it were so dodgy looking my missus locked the door and sent me down to see what was going on ;)
Driver pissed off all my neighbours by repeatedly moving the car to block them in too ... but all in all looked...
LOL ... Im tracking around 21.5mpg at the mo and thats with me not really trying much apart from the odd blast. Short journeys and low speeds dont help.
The V6 is a unique car in todays mundane mega-corp car market ... and I thank Renault for building it :D
Numerous cars are faster and tighter round the "twisties" ... for less than the cost of a V6. Heck buy yourself a small light cheap car and stick a charger or NOS on it if your want to go...
My Vee is in having a new clutch and flywheel (plus some rattles beaten into submission) and I was dreading the worst for the loaner. Was asked if I was OK with automatics ... and so was expecting an infamous green Modus auto. Instead Ive got a Laguna auto! Anonymous enough (no annoying...
Reckon loads of people are driving around with a bigger excess than they realise. Its always the mandatory additional excess that folk dont notice about.

Everybody is always impressed by the pace of his driving.
Yep ... as MB says 172/182 is a pussy cat when you want it to be ... and a tiger when you want it to be too. Progressive accelerator and progressive brakes make for smooth driving.
Get youself a V6 next ... equally progressive. You can cruise around sensible and smoothly without any effort...
Always annoying ... you look after it, care for it ... and then some other bugger hurts it. Important thing is that youre OK mate ... cars can always be repaired or replaced!
Yep ... more worried about securing the keys at night than I am about somebody pinching my car from a car park etc.. Whilst is was a pain to have to type in the number every time ... must admit the keypad immobilizer on a Citroen I had was most secure of all. Key alone wasnt enough.
So good news then Day? My missus shops at ASDA sometimes so youll be able to say hi after my boys have vandalized your toilets.
My spot for yesterday was a very bog standard Clio apart from the worst cheapest looking spinners Ive ever seen. Where they were just wheel covers they stuck out a...
Howdy mate!! Just watch out for Mikes dodgy goods when youre looking to get stuff to do up your car ;) His Renault diamond key rings havent got any diamond in them ... or even any cubic zirconia! :p
