    DIY spraying inside of car - Tell me know

    Painting the inside of a track car (a car with no opening windows or air con!) black, will be a regrettable decision in the peak of summer when you’re waiting in the pit lane to go out. Trust me! 😂

    Clio 182 vs Twingo 133

    Twingo RS is so cool on paper. But in reality it’s a proper wet lettuce and a let down.

    Slight leak head gasket! Advice please guys!

    Thanks for the patronising response Jonathan Dinlo. However, nowhere in this thread have you mentioned what clio you have. There are many types of clio, many many types. So at the risk of repeating myself, and god only knows why I’m still Persuing this line of enquiry with someone that is...

    Slight leak head gasket! Advice please guys!

    Renault Clio what? 1.2? 1.5 dci? 2.0? 3.0? Head gaskets don’t leak oil. And if they did you’d know about it. You need to take it for a second opinion. Take it somewhere that knows about Renault’s as well, not just A Generic Barry Bolt-on Car repairs place.

    I’d take it for a second opinion. Preferably To someone who knows these cars properly. The ‘mechanic’ you’ve taken it to sounds like a tyre fitter are Kwik Fit. Where are you based?

    2001 Clio RSI 1.6

    No way!! I sold that car when it was brand new!! 😂 it was a shared car between mother and daughter. They lived in Downend, round the corner from me. I have a massive soft spot for RSi’s. I actually think that point to point around town etc, they are quicker than a 172.

    Alternative to Ad08R

    AR1’s literally pulled out old Abarth 500 track car apart. So much grip and sticky-ness that after every Hot track day, something was broken. Back in the NS2R’s or a wet track day on Uniroyals and it was reliable as ever. 😂

    Alternative to Ad08R

    I had them on mine (I get NS2R’s for £20 each, not to) but I just couldn’t cope with the road noise on my commute. The tyre drone is louder than the radio! I’ve now opted for a second set of wheels with Uniroyal Rainsport 5’s as my daily tyres and leave the NS2R’s for track. Both sets of tyres...

    I’m valeting for a local garage at the minute to earn some dollar whilst off work. How you lot do this for pleasure is beyond me. I’m 3 cars in and ready to put my head in the microwave to cool down/end it all.

    I tried that. Really didn’t like it, far too fussy for my liking.

    Rear Strut Braces

    Why would you mount safety harnesses dangerously when you can just get an extra bar welded in to the cage??

    Anyone had Bimarco Bucket seats?

    Mate they’re mega cheap. My Suzuka was £460. I can buy two Bimarco’s for that and have nearly enough change for a track day.

    Anyone had Bimarco Bucket seats?

    Thanks. I had a look on their site the other day but it’s about as user friendly as a Rottweiler with a bee up its ass. Thanks though, been a great help. 👍

    It needs a new subframe, new sills, new brakes and it doesn’t start.... 😂

    Anyone had Bimarco Bucket seats?

    Perfect. Daft question alert, when you bought them, was there only one size?? Or did you have a choice. I’ve looked at two different sellers and neither of them offer a choice in size.

    Did all Clio Williams 3 come with a sunroof ?

    I had a W3 that had an electric sunroof and I’m confident they all did. It was the W1 that didn’t come with one. for a total definitive answer, probably best asking on the Williams Facebook page. Most people on here weren’t even born when the Williams was launched! 😂

    No mate I don’t. I’ve got too many cars, I can’t keep track. And my photo taking/uploading skills are similar to a potato. 🤦‍♂️
