Adrian Flux for me . Promised to beat any quote and they did ;) Thanks Privilege !

Welcome to Cliosport Sebastien . Your car looks good mate . Like the wheels :)

Iirc its something to do with the car being French i.e the steering wheel is on the left so the door would or could have been used on a French clio , hence having the key hole on the passenger door . My old 172 had em on both doors , my 182 has it on the passenger door .

So has it just started running rough recently ? Did you get any sort of warranty with the car ? Seems a bit funny why Renault would change the plugs at 36k when its not due until 72k .

Was it running ok after the plugs where changed ? Has it just started to run rough recently , if so it could still be your plugs then .I know the plugs have a recommeded life of 72k but imo thats very optimistic , mine lasted 30k .

^^^ Lol, oooops :approve: Looks like a fair price mate ;)

I was gonna suggest plugs , as my 172 was running rough up until around 3k , loss of power , lump etc ... i took it to the local bosch main agent who put it on the comp and it showed the plugs needed changing , changed the plugs and it was fine . What plugs did you put in ? Maybe the gap on...

Is it the one on ebay ?? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/renault-clio-172-182-sport-half-leather-recaro-trim_W0QQitemZ120015683854QQihZ002QQcategoryZ10410QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem#ebayphotohosting

I sold my 51 plate iceberg full fat 172 in February this year for the same price , mine was very good condition. Looking on autotrader there are others with similar mileage for less money but further away from your post code . Your best bet is to view the car first . Then if it is in good...

Yeah laser detectors are illegal now . Robbievox , your on about laser jammers / garage door openers , not detectors .

Cheers mate for the free :bump:

You mean the small black standard hose ?? Its 10mm outer diameter .

My mum washes mine , lol ;)Yeah just in the washing machine , no higher than 40 degrees and definitely NO fabric conditioner .

Wash in a washing machine at 40 degrees with no fabric conditioner , use the same treatment for all microfibre towels . Lots of good stuff on carwashnwax . I can highly recommend the EXTREME BODY WASH N WAX shampoo and the XXX Hardcore Pure White Carnauba Paste Wax . The postage is the same...

^^^^ Brake discs corrode , fact . Especially on the outer edge where the pad doesn't come into contact with the surface and keep the surface clean . Nice result that mate , well done ;)

I hope you took them up on the offer of replacement discs under warranty ? Obviously with free labour . Then change the pads yourself .

^^^ I think your right . They tell you that your pads are getting worn with the hope that you will instruct them to change the pads for silly money and extortionate labour costs , and i would imagine the majority of people give them to go ahead to carry out the work . Pads cost fcuk all ...

Mines from motorpoint . Full 3 year Renault warranty and 3 years AA assistance , what more could i ask for ;)

Blame motorpoint , lol . Blame em for what ? Selling Joe Public cheaper cars ?? :eek:

If you trade your probably right , if your sell privately i beg to differ . You've hit the nail on the head .Its what somebody is willing to pay .

Why are they an idiot ? Mine had locking wheel nuts on , a cat 1 alarm with a lifetime warranty , better than the cobra ones that are fitted as standard which only have an 18 month warranty . So if you saw 2 cars both priced exactly the same , similar mileage , age etc .... the UK car being a...

Check autotrader for current prices mate for similar aged cars, mileage , spec etc ......then you decide if want a quick sale and sell for slightly less or price it higher if you want a longer wait to sell it .

Insurance is the same , i'm on my second import in 5 years . As to reselling , i got more than some UK models , same age , mileage etc with my 172 on autotrader purely down to the fact the car was in very good condition . Imports selling for less is another myth .

The man talks sense :) Its usually people who don't know what an import is that that sl*g em off . Its the the Jap " grey " imports that are different .Typically having no underseal , rear fog light , speedo in km/h .......

Yep . Just like lots of other European manufacturers , BMW , VW , etc ...... lol ;)

First of all , lets clear one thing up . Was it sold new in this country as an import like most imports or was it imported second hand ? Chances are it was ne when sold in this country as it will be right hand drive . Lots of 172/182's are imports and are sold new in the UK by places like...
