Personal choice - I wouldnt. Wouldnt do it with a business deal, wouldnt do it buying a car. I buy lots of stuff from eBay or from internet shops for anything up to a few hundred, but £25k? Not a chance.

From personal experience, about £25k. Plenty of good deals available. Cant imagine doing business with a broker - who the hell would do a £25k deal with people theyve never met?

Welcome to Cliosport mate :D I presume you mean the cambelt? If so I think its 72,000 miles.

correct. Buying a Clio V6 ha nothing to do with logic!

I use one, works well. Still need to chamois the car, but its a lot easier.

Im sure Yoz will be there with his order book :devilish:

Id love to, but its a bit awkward as I have to use the car for work and some of my customers might not appreciate it! The subframes come with a harness mount, but Im not sure where the rear harness mounts could go - would probably have to be mounted on the parcel shelf if it could be made...

No problems, spends most of its life getting thrashed on track - just keeps going. Oh and ignore all the stuff above about performance - if youve never driven one (and they havent) youll never know what youre missing!

Looking good mate - worth all the effort. With ET38 you should be able to lower no problem at all (assuming theyre 7 x 17 anyway).

but where does it end? Insurers are interested in financial risk, not mechanical risk. For example a V6 with leather pack costs about 3k more than standard, but theres no requirement to declare it. I wonder how the BMW guys get on - their cars are just 4 wheels and an engine from the factory...

an hour. Any garage that does MOTs will be well used to doing CV boots.

the nice people at Demon Tweeks will also sell you some wheel bolts with smaller heads so you can get your socket on! Good luck with it anyway, itll look really good when you get it sorted :D

Just dont mention the Cup packs - its not modified - thats all they need to know. Dont need to mention ID packs on a V6, or luxury packs on a Megane. Youre just talking yourself into trouble!

Demon Tweeks will have some spigot rings - go get some in the morning.

Happens every time I leave mine at the airport. Come back 2 weeks later and the pads are siezed solid to the discs. Same for all cars I guess.

Yes, my V6 is my only car, I use it every day. Its perfectly practical, just think of it as a normal Clio with no rear seats or boot, and you get the idea. Theres lots of luggage space behind the front seats and in the front. Service intervals are the same as a 172/182, and the services cost...

lol, Eddie Stobart Clio :D

yeah, 60k miles, not 60k laps ;)

have a look on autotrader.co.uk, lots on there usually.

I notice he keeps his towing eye fitted. I wonder why???

I have very few teeth to rattle James, (they all fell out when I lowered my 172) so no real issues there. The Renaultsport logo is no problem incidentally - I chose the Nova look to keep the kids at the local krooz happy. Apart from anything else Cobra is a major employer here in Telford, so...

or in my case, maybe the heaviest ;-)

If you walked into Demon Tweeks theyd want about £1300.

Thanks for all the feedback (Im waking up now, it was a late one last night!). I didnt want leather - was more interested in the grippy fabric. Yes they tilt forward (and they remember their recline position) http://www.mike.easley.dsl.pipex.com/seats3.jpg...

Driving position is transformed. The seat is lower, which means I can get closer to the steering wheel without my legs touching the wheel. I feel much more in touch with the car. They weigh 13kgs each. Im not sure how much the standard seats weigh, but it took 2 of us to carry one into the...

lol. BTW I meant the seats were supplied by Yozzasport, not the crap pics, which were taken by me in my garage 10 minutes ago. Car now feels like a kart :D

Cobra Misano seats are in - couple of crap pics. Supplied by Yozzasport :D If you want to totally sort out the driving position in your V6 (and probably 182/172 as well), these are the kiddies to go for: http://www.mike.easley.dsl.pipex.com/seats1.jpg...
