    172 Sport Standard Exhaust System

    Thats what i was led to believe also . When i had my 172 i went to the local ATS and they told me they had to get it from Renault . That was about 3 years ago though . Maybe there are some manufacturers of replacement 172 exhausts now ?

    Another Standard Exhaust Bites The Dust!!!

    I had to do exactly the same lol , cut the bugger off . I'd just go for a full stainless catback . I had a stealth from powerflow in Burnley . Top blokes and only £270 fabricated and fitted , plus lifetime warranty . Sounded good as well :)

    aerials

    The civic aerials aren't a perfect fit . The base of the aerial is slightly wider than the fitting on the roof , so it slightly overhangs .

    spraying poor

    Just wet sand it again with some fine wet n dry , some 1000 grit will be ok . You won't need to remove the lacquer , just reapply the colour coat again . Good long even strokes and the colour coat should go on ok . Don't apply lacquer until your happy with the colour coat .

    Scratch on 172 grey leather

    'Maximum Chassis Height' on trolley jacks.

    Looking at that i assume it means how high the car is from the ground that is to be lifted before the jack is placed underneath . Sounds a bit strange i know but thats how it reads . A 2 tonne jack will be more than adequate for a clio . Lifting gear that is rated to 2 tonnes is usually...

    Ethernet?

    You'll get both a usb and ethernet lead with your modem . Ethernets "supposed " be slightly better but it makes no difference whether i use the usb lead or ethernet lead with mine on virgin .

    anthracite paint code

    anthracite paint code

    You can't buy ixell paint 205 -110 in aerosols and you'll be lucky if someone can mix some up for you .I've tried loads of different places and even the people who supply ixell paint don't sell it in aerosols . I had some rover stone grey made up and the guy tweeked it with a bit more red to...

    182cup best air intake please?

    A panel filters just a replacement for the normal paper filter you have as standard . Take the old paper filter out and drop the new filter in . http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=246737&highlight=itg+panel+filter...

    Changing 172 for 182

    I swapped my ff172 for a ff182 with cup packs . Mainly because the 172 was 4 years old and i wanted a new car . The 182 does seem to handle slightly better imo than the 172 , whether thats down to the cup suspension , exaltos or a combination of both i'm not sure . But i don't regret it .
