    snow pictures of the DCi and mates Fabia VRS

    love it, its so cumfy, well built, nice to drive and handles awesome! it lacks power, got a nice torque band but imo needs 220lb/ft or so! (they have 180 as standard) ive rarely had it over 2.5krpm just cruise about in it. 2krpm in 6th gear is 75mph. however so far its not been great on fuel...

    wandering in a straight line will be the rear dampers, its one of they feelings you cant put your finger on it but it just doesnt feel right!! go into a damp roundabout a little faster than you normally would and lift off and you will soon tell if the rears are gone!!! i wouldnt be paying...

    Logitech MK250 wireless keyboard and mouse cheap @ play.com

    1.4 sport started to rough idle recently, any idea's please

    clean the throttle body out i bet thats whats causing it. is it the 1.4 16v? its similar to the 1.6 16v which suffers from this problem quite badly

    Is the RenaultSport Clio more efficient Fuel wise at higher revs?

    i think the OP has possibly used the wrong term, driven hard and possibly means fast flowing driving? my ph1 is awesome on fuel on a nice summers day just driving down a nice twisty road at 60/70/80mph hardly braking hardly acclerating just flowing in and out the bends.

    Clio 1.2 16v (2002) 172 replica.

    ignore the haters, if it makes you happy do it. 2.0 conversion, insured as a 1.2 = the future.

    Damp under rear nearside seat.

    had this on my old 1.2 16v dynamique, was the rear washer jet line, it runs up the near side and was leaking at a joint behind the rear n/s door card, i bet you a tenner its that!

    Mk3 1.6 Dynamique s's

    my mrs has a mk2 one and her sis a mk3 one, nice refined engine for about town however doesnt have the power to warrant the terrible fuel consumption, the mk2 does 38mpg on a decent run, the same as my 172 and the mk3 is worse. if your coming from something quick, go for something cheap to run...

    CS Gold Megan the 16v Dynamique (pic heavy)

    fuking lol, as said 17s would look good on it. all you needed for megane RS wheels was a set of wheel adators, same idea as fitting 197 wheels to a non RS Clio...

    top spec clio....what is it?

    initiale is the top spec, better spec than the 182 in many ways! dynamiques also came with rare optional extras such as xenons, colour sat nav, ESP, cruise control, 6 disc changers, cabasse head unit, climate control and electric sunroof. 1.2s are cheap and cheerful but not very good to...
