    What a difference a good servicing makes.

    my car breaks down every time i get it back from a service due to the dealership not putting things back together properly.

    Looking for a sparkplug change guide

    torque wrench for the plugs, see to many of them blowing plugs out the head and taking all the threads with them!

    New 200 or second hand??

    Couple of questions about my Clio 200

    using the usb connection will give you track listings on the screen, you wont get that with the headphone to aux one. think the usb slot only comes with the uprated bluetooth stereo which still has equally as pish sound quality.

    New 200 or second hand??

    How would you rate a 1*2 on reliability?

    10/10 for engines and running gear. 7/10 for interior fitting/rattling etc not great but not terrible. id give mk3 clios 10/10 for both!

    Silver 182 Hit & Run Nottingham

    you wouldnt expect them to find a missing dog either lol

    clio reached 99tho miles whatt needs replacing??

    mk2 clios that are driven hard are bad for wearing out inner track rods and track rod ends, ive had 2 of my past cars do it, one by 45k miles and one by 80k miles. worth changing them and having a proper geometry setup done. loads of people fit the best suspension and brakes and overlook this!

    Let's talk fast road/track cars!

    i think people get hung up on numbers too much, when running turbo torque 240/250bhp in a mk2 clio would be phenominal on the road! no need for anymore really

    good to know, too many conversions out there giving a massive lump of power at 3500rpm braking traction, gearboxes, and anything else that gets in its way lol!

    that looks not bad, some benchmarks with that graphics chip... http://www.notebookcheck.net/NVIDIA-GeForce-9600M-GS.9450.0.html that cpu will likely be socketed and depending on what models fit will be upgradeable to a 2.5ghz or somewhere around they lined if needed.

    Let's talk fast road/track cars!

    ive yet to see a turbocharged F4R that has the drivability of the F4Rt though, if going to all the effort id do it properly and fit one of those, sure there was a guy on here running something crazy like over a bar of boost at 2k rpm!

    New 200 or second hand??

    i lost more in a year in my 10yr old ph1 than i lost in my brand new dci, same goes for my mk2 172

    Let's talk fast road/track cars!

    if i was building something serious it would be a ph1 172, 2.0t megane 230 conversion, LSD, remap/exhaust & intercooler for a nice 270bhp and loads of torque, boost from low down unlike the turbo conversions. real drivability!

    clio reached 99tho miles whatt needs replacing??

    gearbox oil is a must to keep it running well. who changed the cambelt and not the aux belt? terrible practice that!

    i dont mean over months, just maby one month on your payday or what ever buy a case, psu, any cooling fans, drives etc then the next one a montherboard, and memory, then the next a graphics card or what ever else you fancy. usually better for people who cant save lol

    New 200 or second hand??

    my dci gt was 14.5k and after 25k/1yr its probably worth 11k not bad for a brand new car tbh

    tuning mk2 diesel van

    1.9 is a w**k engine tbh if going to the massive effort of doing it id do the 2.0 16v DCi 150/175 from the megane, much much better and more powerful engine. overkill in a clio though! would destroy a 172 imo!

    a gaming laptop for £300 is going to have to be 2nd hand and is going to be old technology that to be honest isnt great!
