ive had a few dci clios they are good cars will do mega mpg, we drove from scotland to wales for the WRC and my mpg was in the 90's for most of it lol!!! DCi 80 does the best mpg out of the 3 mk2 versions. diesels dont like driving about town all day with an average speed of about 10mph...

chop a bit off the gear stick, give you a shorter throw too lol

no its ESP, it gives you a row for getting the car sideways. i had it grab at a back brake when it lifted a rear wheel over the crest of a hill coming round a long sweeping right hander at about 140mph! (i blame my mate for wanting to stop for a piss brake 2 minutes previous and i forgot to...

yes esp is always on after each restart and then you press the button at your right knee to deactivate it (which brings the light up on the dash)

no that would be ESP, thats all the clio has, it limits wheelspin off the line too

ive always found abs very good on the clio RS, yes it does come in a bit earlier than it could at times but with minimal issues, on a non RS it cuts braking force for a bit too long and can un settle the car, where on an RS its just a quick ease of braking force and back on

brakes should be pretty sharp on them, there is a bit of pedal travel first but nothing massive

172 of some sort, no faffing about with squint exhausts lol

id go down the 197/200 wheel route as the standard 172/182/dynamique wheels are huge, if i wanted a massive wheel id rather have the dynamique one that didnt melt anyway! well does still melt but doesnt have thumb grips to burst!

yeah not sure how their instructors can be making much profit once they pay there share to bill plant! your best bet is just to build the reputation, get an advert at the local high school, i see quite a bit poping up on facebook but not something we have tried yet, a few about here are running...

ah right, one of my ex mrs had a 1.6 16v wich is a very similar engine and it was terrible on fuel compaired to the 1.2 16v. no mate, family run a business, was always going to join it when i turned 21 originally but didnt bother as id imagine its much the same where you are now, getting over...

im running the twingo hopefully have the decat by then!

we are the same everyones using diesels around here, we were mk2 clios, mk3 clios then swapped over to twingos, pile 40k a year on them then chop them at 3yrs old around 120k , they get serviced every 18k and that is all they ever need other than tyres and brakes. uber cheap to run! i assume a...

turbo it

as above windows setup will recognise it as a normal hard drive, nothing changes format as normal etc, its worth installing from a fast usb stick to see just how quick your SSD is at installing an OS, i think from the bios screen when i first turn on, to installing windows and then getting to...

false economy for a driving school car, 1.2 16v, bullet proof, will do 140k without needing anything other than a service, do 40mpg+ all day long and much better for learning in, diesels scare the s**t out of learners when they start running away from you at low RPM, then when the pupil finally...

ive got it installed on one of my laptops to try and get used to it as i know in the future im going to have to when they start trying to push you away from it as they did with Win XP with no new versions of IE etc. but i just cannot get on with it. and i cant see the company i work for...

popped in for a look round one of these today out of curiosity, looks twice as good in the flesh as it does in pics, it doesnt seem to photograph very well! the low bonnet line and big smooth front bumper looks brilliant, massive badge doesnt look to bad either.

i am genuinely gob smacked that so many people hadn't noticed this!

welcome buddy car looks awesome, although need to get that rear exhaust hanger sorted to get it hidden behind the bumper! did i spot this in Bonybridge a few days ago?

they are terrifying with burst rear shocks! lucky they are cheap! you mentioned track rod ends but not the inner track rods, they usually go too

are u using the auto feature? its been a while since i used a clio 2 but from memory if you set it to min auto it will just try to cool it to as low as it can, but set it to 16 auto then it will blow as hot air as it possibly can until the car reaches 16 degrees then it will keep the air at the...

i fitted mine with the ktec decat link pipe on a car that already had matched inlets, k-tec stealth, itg filter and it made a massive difference, mid range pull was awesome, i recon if i had got it remapped it would have gained more, it ran 188bhp after the mods and 173bhp standard bar the ITG...

doddle on this engine if you know roughly what your doing.

105hp should be possible on just a remap, more power to be had from decat, panel filter, exhaust etc but gains per £ id just stick to a remap. side by side with my GT Dci106 my mates fabia VRS was identical, although the fabia feels quicker due to the extra torque

turbo isnt an easy swap, its a different variable geometry jobby on the 106. a standard 86/88 feels about the same if not livelier than a 106 around town as it has much less turbo lag, when rolling though the 106 is a good bit quicker, personally the gearbox makes the 106, id be selling up and...

my ex bint smashed a wheel and took a chunk out a 2 day old tyre. cow

bit of a gimmik but fun at the same time my old one...

not much you can do since you have since repaired it, personally id put it back to the way it was phone RUK say its not right and you want it inspected by another dealership so the original cant hide their mistake when they see it, either that or get the service manager to have it put up on the...
