    Bump strips off while raining...?

    My bump strips are currently at home in the garage and my car is outside in the pouring rain without them.. Will water in the holes be an issue? After market speakers and wires in the door are making me paranoid but I have nothing to go and plug the holes up with :s

    Best place for custom mixed spray?

    Have looked at auto-paint but they don't accept my stupid electron and heard bad things about Halfords. I'm after Ottoman Blue (i45) 400ml or so. Can anyone recommend somewhere to order from or somewhere in/near Godalming/Guildford where I can go?

    Beginner DSLR?

    I'm looking to replace my point and shoot Panasonic Lumix FX55 with a "proper camera" but I have no idea about good brands or anything! I want to spend around £200-£300 and will be using it for everything.. Stabilisation would be a bonus, but if not then I'll make do with a tripod. Reason I...

    Alpine CDE-9880R

    Looking to buy this from Car Audio Direct. I'm not fussed (at the moment at least) about stalk controls and display so is there anything else I'll need to get to fit this? I guess this isn't going to come with removal keys - are these the right ones? I have new speakers etc sitting at my...

    Induction kit for 1.2?

    I'm not after power (otherwise I wouldn't have a 1.2 :D) but a bit of noise under the bonnet. I've been looking at this one at k-tec but not sure if it's worth spending that much, or If I should just get a cone on it's own or even just a replacement panel filter? Any comments (other than...

    Finally got my first Clio! :D

    Finally got my Clio (first car)! :D Woop! Picked her up this morning and just got back from my first random drive. 1.2 Dynamique Ottoman blue. Although it's to be expected and is pretty obvious, it's sooo much different to my brothers 172. The rear disks make such a different and then of...

    PH1 Vee silver - PF02 XXX - Shalford

    Coming from Shalford towards Godalming past SMC Renault. Right behind my Dads Xsara Picasso who stopped pretty quickly at the roundabout because of BMW driver who stopped and moved at 2mph for half a minute for some reason. My heart stopped - imagined the Vee plowing into the back of us and...

    Do these quotes look right for new driver?

    Been doing some quotes and although the ones from Churchil are satisfactory, the rest are stuuuupid money. Do these (or at least the Churchil one) look about right? Anyone my age managed to get cheaper? This is one of the key factors to help me finally decide which engine size to go for.. Think...

    Grrr can't decide what size..

    Went to a couple dealers this morning to take a look at different models and spent most of the day on the net but can't decide what to get for first car. Planning on keeping it around 3 years then going up to 1*2 and I want a Dynamique, but... 1.2, 1.4 or 1.5? I thought 1.2 as I'm a new...

    First car... best insurers to phone?

    Hi guys, Looking to buy my Clio ASAP now and want to get some insurance quotes for a 1.4 petrol and 1.5 diesel but unsure of who to phone up. Ideally I want a company who won't kick up a fuss over mods or don't care about cosmetic mods... Any suggestions? List so far (which I'd like to...

    1.4 or 1.5 dCi?

    Getting closer to choosing the car I want but can't decided whether I should go petrol or diesel. I'm after a mk2 ph2 either 1.4 petrol or 1.5 diesel. Still waiting for insurance quotes which will play a huge part in my decision, but was wondering what other people would recommend? I have...

    First car... which Clio to go for?

    Looking to buy my first car in 3 weeks time and for a long time I've decided a mk2 Clio is the car to get, but not sure which model to choose. The local Renault dealers near me keep getting 1.2 Dynamiques in stock which is what I'm leaning towards, but out of curiosity I done some quick quotes...

    PhQuick-L

    My bro put me on his insurance last week and just been out with him. Got my test booked for 4th July so got my bro helping me in his 172 and then the 1.2 I use for lessons. 1.2 to 172 is... scary.

    Soon-to-be Clio owner :)

    I'm 18 and will be buying my first car either during May or early June... and I'm settled on a Clio! Just thought I'd sign up and take a look around at all the 172's and 182's and my God I'm in love. I'm only looking at a 1.2 Dynamique Mk2 Ph2 but I really wanted to join the community and maybe...
