Oh s**t. That's way above my head. What does this mean and what does it involve? Can the breakdown people do this?

Is this the sort of problem that is likely to happen without warning then? She was perfectly ok on Saturday. I can't get to the darn plugs, need a special tool apparently. (which I haven't got). In all my years of motoring I don't think I have ever heard a car make such a racket without warning...

I just called the revovery/breakdown people, f**king w**kers! They say as it is not a serious problem, it would take them about an hour to get here then they have no guarantees they can fix it, and most garages will be closed by the time they arrive so they think there is little point in coming...

Misfiring like hell, cat stinks, engine management light intermittent. Please help! I just went to go out in my car and I couldn't believe it. It was totally fine on Saturday, haven't driven her since. She now sounds like she is misfiring like hell, the cat stinks of rotten eggs, it stank of...

Very very nice Bill. Looks the mutts nuts! :D

:eek: You mean you aren't going to get another Clio or even a Renault? You traitor! Lmfao.

Oh crikey! I've lost count on how much we have spent on cleaning bits and bobs. Special stuff for the leather seats in Hubbys car and my steering wheel, various products for cleaning carpets and cloth interior, not to mention stuff for glass and all the black bits, and of course various cloths...

Congratulations. So what car are you getting next then?

I've declared all mine, even the bits that aren't on yet. So all is good. :D

Excellent pics. You did better than me. I'm going to cry now. NOT! :rasp:

Lets keep oir fingers crossed that this is the end of his troubles then.

Now that has made a car that is already ugly, look 100 times worse! Who in their right mind would buy that??? :dead:

That's a pretty good price mate.

Two reasons to finish early then. Get you butt out of that office lad! ;) lol

Here's a pic of one. It's bloody horrible! :dead:

Yeah, do it. I think it will look spanking mate!

Yeah, do it! It is friday afterall, so it's allowed. ;)

Oh I see, now that's a real bummer! Bad planning matey. I would have arranged to have the day off. ;)

You really are torturing youself counting down those minutes. Would it not be better to find something to do that will fill the time and therefore make it feel like it's going quicker? Even going out in the Cav for a drive would be better than just sitting there waiting, wouldn't it? I think...

Personally I don't like the stripes on the racing blue either, but that's just my personal taste. If you like the idea and you think your car will look good, then do it. It's your car and therefore what you like is what counts.

I know exactly how you feel. A day felt like a week when my car was in having it's new suspension fitted. I had an extreme urge to drive it, and I wanted to do it NOW, not in a few hours. It's weird though because she can sit in the drive for days without me touching her, but as soon as she has...

Me neither. I think it's ugly. I do rather like the look of the Twingo though, although I bet it won't look anything like the concept car when put into production. It's a shame they are only going to do a 1.2 at this stage too, otherwise I might well consider one if it drives nicely. I would...

Hubby and I were studying a picture of a 197 the other day. He said the more he looked at the rear the more it reminded him of the Ford KA. I hadn't really thought about it before, but I think he's right, it bloody does look like a KA from the back. The more I look at the new Clio's the less I...

Oh owch, nasty. I bet you will be grinning like a cheshire cat once you have her back, I know I would be. Will you be taking her for a nice long drive too?

It's ok. That's why I said shouldn't instead of won't as we all know what Renault build quality is like. ;) lol

Well yes we do pay loads more for most things in this country, but if you own a car , high spare parts prices is something we can't really get away from. You can indeed buy non Renault parts, but you will not always get the best quality. It is a sad fact that you get what you pay for these...

Oh I agree, production costs will no doubt be far less than they are marketed for, but business is business and if they can sell parts at their sometimes outrageous prices they will! Look at it this way though, people pay far more for a darn plain white t-shirt with a logo on it that you could...

I think you are probably right there. To be given a choice would be good though. I guess it will have the same new steering system, which is abit of a put-off as far as I am concerened, but I guess only a test drive would really make up my mind for me. I wouldn't consider anything less than a...
