they are dropping the 3 door to save cash as its not cost effective to make both anymore, so no chance of making the RS 3 door, as they sell such a small ammount of them!

wheres the brought police lol

Re: Which model Clio do you prefere and why? ive never had the pleasure/missfortune to drive a mk1, but ive spent the last 6 years in a mixture of mk2 and mk3's and got to say the mk2's were great in there day but the mk3 is in a different league. 200 feels like a proper performance car, 172's...

when you fit your HID's test your radio signal with the headlights on before you put everything back together, i got mine from HID's direct and had no radio signal when the lights were on, put up with it for a year as i couldnt be arsed changing them lol

what i mean is how terrible it is to drive a 1.2 to be achieving that 50mpg, i used to average about 35 in mine if i was lucky as it was that painfully slow to drive, and i had never driven anything quicker at the time! jumped into my dci65 and used to get an easy 60-65mpg every week just...

a lot of people seem to be missing the point.. it can have 10 doors for all i care, if it pulls it off and looks good who cares how many doors its got? If it looks pants then it can have 1,2,3,4,5 what ever doors, it looks pants! I think the plus point is, its bassed on the current clio 3...

its done 5000 miles now, fitting the parts as the callipers are coming off to be stripped down and cleaned to make sure its got no sticking parts etc, so now that warranty isnt a concern as its not worth the paper its written on to me im having a minor upgrade of discs and pads while im at it...

its now booked into progrip larbert to be fully rectified at my expence, suspension and subframe off for re alignment, new discs, pads and fluid, a new pair of front tyres to correct the damage done by their alignment see where it goes from there

dealership told me any further issues call renault uk get them to deal with it. but where does it go from there? back to another dealership? RUK are not interested in the car, they think its arnold clarks problem due to them doing the work on it, RUK were only interested when the engine...

genuinely lost for words from what i heard today! so as i said a few days back, dealership agreed on friday to try and get "renault technical" involved to get to the bottom of the problem since the garage couldnt find the cause. got a call today saying the garage has been instructed by there...

45mpg across a full tank isnt that great though for something so slow! makes it tiring and horrible to drive! get a good dci65 for 2k, higher miler for £1500-£2k, may be no faster than the 1.2 but is effortless to drive due to the torque and will do 65mpg over a tank without much trying!

they are rubbish on fuel and slow, un refined, noisey on the motorway, just generally horrible to drive. dci65/80 any day of the week for the same/similar cash

probably be so much less hastle if it would! lol

awaits the hardcore cup version with light weight welded shut rear doors to save weight haha

Top spec big 5 door bad ass 1.6 DCi130 will do me nicely! lol

i was considering getting in touch with knockhill and seeing if i could get anyone who any resonable person would be able to assume understands how a car reacts under braking to do a few laps and write a report on it, but as i mentioned on the RS forum, i work 6 to 7 days a week every week 60+...

ive got a report showing the full alignemnt is fucked, renault say, no it isnt. because there basic machine shows camber and caster is within tollerance. progrip say its fucked, renault say its not. i know who i trust however what do you do?!?! just want it sorted now. cheers for the comments...

yeah thats it, at the end of the day ive had 7 clios the chances are if the new mk4 RS is going to be as good as it should be ill be having a few of them too and i wont be going anywhere near Arnold Clark for one, so its them that loose out in the end! not that they really care, a customer is...

was coming onto the roundabout from the motorway from falkirk

ive never done a 172/182 but done a few non RS petrol and diesels. personally id take it out the top if your just doing it in your garage, you will need to split the box and engine, you may need to lower the subframe to get enough room to get the box out the road, but because your just dropping...

its got to the point now that im booking it into progrip in larbert to have all the front end geometry points removed and refitted and aligned 100% perfect. ordering a set of DS2500's all round for it and ill also get progrip to strip all the brakes off it, clean and service them, fit them all...

Re: My Ultra Red 200. i agree with hero spec or nothing. i originally went in to order a hero spec white one but saw my current albi sitting pre reg, and after weighing up the options had i gone new i was looking at a 3 month wait and £4k extra for £1k of options over my current one, thats the...

sorry missed out the header of the letter thats from arnold clark customer services, renault gave up a long time ago!

heres a few snippets from the dealership sales material issued from the manufacturer to help sell the car i purchased.. ie. the one i wrongly assumed was designed to be used for trackdays....

Todays update....

cheers for the support guys, just to answer a few questions briefly im on my phone.... ar behaves its self under braking on road most of the time its the 70mph+ situations so dealership struggle to replicate the fault. I agree its a brake hydraulic issue not all down to the tracking however...
