Cheers mate haha. I swear on my Megane 225s life that, that comment came off the top of my head. It just tickled me at the time of reading the title. lol

Just don't mix Ron Jeremy and Ronald McDonald though!!! oooooh thats a bad combination at birthday parties.

Does look very nice, although the term midlife crisis does spring to mind!! hahahaha. Either way though, awesome car. :D :D :D

They're bollox mate, plenty of links have come up about these things. Wouldn't touch em mate. :(

I recall from my driving test days that the instructor told me that you are actually allowed to remove your seat belt for reversing monoevres!! I was under the impression that the beeping didn't happen in reverse???? If its a quick reverse does the beeping annoy you that much though??

Wow what a sh!t box!! hahaha Clearly someone whose had a look round Halfords but actually knows nothing about cars!!! What a c**k.

I think they are roughly the same as a Clio Grande or something like that. No alloys or anything but just an uprated stereo.

Guy I used to work with had a Clio MTV, in a gold kinda colour. Apparently it had an uprated sound system. His was a 1.2 as well. Apart from it being a specific kind of trim, thats all I really know about em.

How did yo uget the engine up that shiny mate???? I'm looking at giving the missus 182 engine a clean up but not really sure the best thing to use. :D Have to say though, the car looks stunning. That flame red is definitely the best 172 colour as well.

From what I've experienced, I haven't ever found that double de clutching helps on changing up the gears. But it certainly makes for a smoother gear change when coming down the gears. Really easy in the missus 182 and mums SportKa. Takes a bit more mastering in my 225. I was under the...

I've got a 1993 non injected 1.4 Clio RT. Anyway to put an induction kit on it???? Not exactly performance but thought I'd ask. :D

My missus drives a 182 Cup, racing blue with stripes so you might see that round Purley direction. She lives towards Epsom though. :D

Yeah probably not worth chopping up a rare little beast like a Willams/Valver for it. But..... If you're talking of lottery winnings, then just chop a 1.2 and have a 172 or GTT lump dropped in instead. :D :D

17 years old - 1993 Clio Oasis with 49k on the clock (sold on 69k) 19 - 2001 Clio Grande with 1,500 on the clock (sold on 24k) 21 - 2003 RenaultSport Clio 172 from new (sold on 14.5k) 23 - 2006 RenaultSport Megane 225 from new (now on 2,700 miles) 24 - 2nd Car : 1995...

Cool, so if I get a pair of 13.5cm coaxials for the front that should do the job??? And 4" in the back?? Sounds cool, just gotta find some cheapo ones now. haha. Actually, I just had a look round and the most common size is 13cm speakers, would they fit in ok?????

Anyone know what size speakers would be in the doors of a 1993 Clio RT???? The standards ones are a bit pony and I'm looking to replace them with some cheap co-axial jobs. Also are there tweeters in the dash or is it just the speakers in the doors???

For the noise it makes and induction kit is definitely worth the cash. Makes em sound like they should!! I had one on my 172 and the missus has one her 182 and it definitely makes it more satisfying to drive. IMO anyway. :D

You won't have any troubles with ShinyAutos mate, he provided the interior lighting kit for my Meg 225 and thats spot on. Also seen some of the decals he's done for other people. :D

In a way, that pic above kinda suits having the graphics. You'd have to keep it mega subtle though, none of the chequered roof nonsense like you can get on the R26!!

My Megane 225 is French, so was my Clio 172, Renault 5 and the other 3 Clios but none of them made funny creaking noises!! lol But we'll let the dealer take a look, at least they are more than willing to try and resolve it so we'll let em. Worse case is that it still makes the noise, at...

Cool, I'll make sure she's got notes of all these points when it goes back in haha. Cupholder - that symptom you described is exactly what it went in for a couple of months ago!! Full lock to the right and getting a similar creaking noise.

Sounds like a very similar kinda problem to my missus car. Let me know how you get on with the dealers next week. The missus car is going in for two days next week as well, so we'll see what they say.

Was just looking at that page Rich, only 17 phase II's in flame red and with Sat Nav. That does indeed make it a rare motor. Although there's 480 flam red phase IIs though.

I'll get these mentioned when it goes in for the second check next week. Cupholder - funny you mention the noise even when something isn't worn, she's said that it hasn't made the noise since coming back even though they want to take another look. If they've taken apart the parts mentioned...

Interesting thought but as far as I know, 182s don't have sunroofs!! lol

I wonder how you knew that hahaha. Thanks for the compliments guys, I was rather pleased with the pics anyway. :D :D

The missus 182 Cup has just been into Renault to have a noise investigated. Its a creaking noise, only hear it at low speed such as parking or creeping over speed bumps etc. Can't really tell where the noise comes from except that it seems to be towards the front. They have had the car...

I was just taking a few shots of my 225 after giving it a good going over and took some pics. Liked these reflections anyway -

Yeah will do mate, just wondered if it was gonna be one of those jobs that makes you say the word 'f*ck' very loudly. Haynes manual it is haha.

The weird thing is its hard to tell if its at the front or the back!?! I even stood outside the car as the missus rolled it back and forward and couldn't hear it. Haven't noticed patches of oil either, which we did when the Focus shock went. One of the bushes had to be replaced when it was...
