I owned a VTS before i got my ph1 172 and fuel consumption isnt far away mate, I find i get between 33-39 mpg thats a whole mixture of driving, for what it is its really not that bad atall!
I loved the saxo but it was just too unreliable, the 172 isnt any Honda but it feels like a vts with a...
It seems apparent that Cooper S drivers seem to think that when i shoe the loud pedal nothing will happen that is until im 4 car lenghts in front.
Clio- 3
Cooper S- 0
When you say cut running costs what do yu mean exactly?
Unless you can justify paying so much for DIEsel and doing the mileage that would pay for itself kind of thing, i think you would have to be doing between 18-28k miles a year to say thats moneys well spent!
People seem to think DIEsels...
Remember mate a car privatley is only worth what the owner thinks its worth some sell for 6k other are really optimistic and sell for 8.5k
Hang off for now but you should be in good stead come the time
Dont think it matters mate im sure if theres anything pertruding the wiper (thats deemed to limit the drivers view) then its a fail.
I might be wrong, best asking them first i spose!
Good thread here, Im quite enthusiastic about my car (having been driving for only 4 years, and owned 2 renaults, 1 Honda, 1 Citroen) I really take care of my cars.
If im honest i love it, a car that weighs little over a ton shouldnt go as fast as it does but it does, and it does it well, sure...
I would say this much, having owned a VTEC civic i can bout for it being a b**ch, you have to have a Lead weighted shoe on your right foot to get the most out of it, espesh with the Civic Type R, unless you keep it screaming up past 5600rpm then you can forget it performance wise, great cars and...
A waranty is valid regardless whom the owner is, Renault state that all there vehicles have a 3 year manufacturers warranty which means if you are the first or the fith owner and the cars still within the first 3 years then tghis applies, if renault try and tell you otherwise then get on the...
This is why i disagree to spending thousands upon thousands to make a car go faster than Renault intended, if i wanted more power id have bought a faster car.
f**k stripping seats and interior out not for me
Yes mummy, i didnt realise your whiter than white mate im telling how it is, your arguing over somthing that can never be changed or improved, insurance is going to get a whole lot worse before it gets remotley better!
This has just opened a can of worms, do claim dont claim, who gives a toss!
The insurance is only going up anyway itll not make a toss of a diffrence who is and whose not!
I pay my insurance year in, year out. It costs me a f**king fortune and it only goes up regardless of driving like an...
If it was me personally id go for the Pulsar mate its the ultimate track/road tool its a 4x4 menace, and you would really need 400bhp+ to beat it pound for pound!
Aye okay mr Half empty, your making the VXR out some sort of Audi eater f**k sake, its got 189bhp yes but it weighs 1223kg's and makes 230Nm of Torque.
The clio cup weighs 1021kg's and makes 200Nm of Torque...
Now if my math is b****cks (and it isnt) thats 200kg's of extra weight that the...
It was just curiosity to be honest i wanted to speak to someone thats had it done, i wouldnt bother, I dont think a clio couldt take 200bhp with such a short wheel base.
That coupled with the fact you would need a big f**k off brake conversion to ensure you dont kiss the pavement when you...
