It's ok guys, Steve (sm_wrc) has just kindly answered my question for me. Cheers Steve. :D

I had the dogbone mount replaced yesterday and it has made a remarkable difference. A lot of the vibration I had instantly vanished and now the gear change is very smooth and easy, instead of it being really stiff. However, I still how some significant vibration at the front end and checked...

I'm not normally a lover of the 197, but that looks sweet. Love the colour and the wheels are spot on! I agree about the sticker though, it's too straight, need to bring it forward abit and line it up with the angle of the bottom of the window. Stunning example.

Good to see your car again Richy, it's been a while. Cheers for letting me out mate! :D

I've finally got some pics sorted out of the saga of Dougs springs. As Doug says , it was a bugger of a job getting the nut undone but finally Dunc managed it and got the strut out. Dunc set about compressing the new spring when all of a sudden it slipped. The compressor flew off and...

You can't tell it's been lowered? :eek: I think you must be the only one that can't. I'll put some pics up of the work being done ( once I have got them all sorted out), and then you will be able to spot the difference easily. Doug; looking lovely now matey. Love the engine cover too. Good...

Hiya James, welcome to CS. Love the car! :)

Love where you have put the sat nav. Darn good idea that. Nice one matey.

Aww how absolutely gutting! Looks like she was a beauty too. Glad you're ok. Hope you get it sorted out quickly.

Just for you Donna.

I've got a front view of it to if you want it Donna. ;)

To answer your question Jay. I'm 21 twice over and a tad more. Lmao. Here are some of my pics.

Excellent meet Jay. Good to finally meet you. Couldn't believe sooo many people turned up. Made my day! My pics will follow once I've sorted through them. Had an excellent time. Nice one Jay. :D P.s. Thanks to the luuuuvly guys who came and had a b'day drink with me too...

Hiya Dan, welcome to CS. :)

Very very nice mate, but lose the sunstrip. ;)

Aww, that's a really sad sight. Really gutted for you. Glad you're ok.

Hahaha. Love it!

She looks lovely, shame you are thinking of getting rid of her. I can understand why though.

Ah yeah well, you see, a car is only worth as much as someone is prepared to pay for it. You may well have been prepared to pay 4.2k, but it appears the bidding is far lower and I would say it would probably be within your best interests to sell to the highest bidder. So, I'll offer you and take...

If we are going to list all our previous cars, then here goes. (In order). Reliant Regal.- Fondly known as my purple plastic pig. Austin Mini 850 - Amazing fun to drive but a tad small. Ford Capri MK1 1.6 - Slightly tweaked, went like a rocket and was really comfy. Hillman Avenger 1.4 - Nice...

Totally gutted for you Dave. I am also in the habit of checking my car over in the drive before I go out first thing. I have a habit of giving checks before and after it has been to the garage too, and I do it right outside before it goes in (and when it comes out) so they know what I am doing...

No blame matey. I looked it up on the RAC one before and it came up as an RL then too. I've just looked on the registration document and it also says it's an RL, although my sales invoice definitely says Dynamique +. It is an import yes, and won't come up on Renault computers without all the...

I've just checked my car out on there, just out of interest. It says my car is a 1.6 RL. Excuse my ignorance, but what's an RL? I have never heard of one of those, apart from the fact they've got it wrong as mine's a Dynamique +. :S

Hiya, welcome to Cs. Don't be putting your car down mate, she's easily as nice as the rest of the minters on here. :D Looks pretty stunning if you ask me. ;)

I would love to say that my Clio has been my overall best car, but there are definitely two other cars that I previously owned that I seriously miss, my Mk1 1.6 (slightly tweaked) Capri and my 1.1 Ex Rallly ( tweaked like a b**ch) Viva. Both cars were incredibly good fun to drive and had their...

I was taken out around Sutton in a Mk1 1.2. The guy driving it gave it some welly and it seemed to love it and handled really well. From that moment on I wanted a Clio. A couple of years later Dunc and I moved into our house and I wanted to get a newer car. (I had a 1.4 Renault 11 at the time)...

It's here too. http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=227365 I can't be bothered to search for all the other posts with this darn car in, but there's loads!

lol. Each to their own I say. I just thought the original lights were way too , erm RED! I have this thing about balance, and with the nice clear lights on the front it didn't quite look right to me with the red ones on the rear. So, Lexus clear lights went on and now balance has been restored...

Nice one. I have Lexus lights on mine too. You may well get flammed for them, but each to their own I say. I love mine! :D Like Brian says, it's an easy job to change them. I did have abit of a problem with a loose connector on mine, but nothing a pair of pliers couldn't cure. ;)

Giles, It should not matter what anyone else thinks of your car. If you like it, then that's all that counts. If you are considering a 172 because you actually like them alot and want one, then go for it! If on the other hand you are only considering it because you feel others don't like your...
