WARNING TO ALL - dont mess with your keys like i do when they are in your pocket, cause your car suddenly doesnt work with no warning!!!
so thats what you call it nowadays then

I love these races with big man in his evo feeling bullet proof and then chav boy comes along in the turbo and kicks his ass.
It doesnt happen very often,but when it does its class

You shouldnt have to pay for a poor finish,take some photos close up to show there is no kerb damage and keep them safe.
I would proceed with it and get the wheel on the car asap and then keep aurguing the case if they persist.
If all else fails rimg renault uk and ask for their...
Thats great,i bet that little car shifts
Nice to see aswell, someone putting there money where their mouth is on these conversions.I think we all know its possible to do but when you get muppets like LAD motorsport trying to put you off tunning figures and rolling roads with a £200 hotel bill...
I suppose you could do the spoiler bits yourself but the suspension would start to make it a pain in the arse
Tick the options boxes and save a packet too

The clio is one of the best cars ive ever driven for handling on a twisty road.The speed you gather without realising is scary sometimes
My 182 has been exellent and better than my 172 on twisty roads.

They may still have good road appeal but they are cack.Imagine a subaru or evo 8 with all the gadgets and then remove the computer and replace it with a cinclair C5 ECU and youll get the idea
A guy at work has one and had a rolling road set up one week and lost 58 bhp in a week.Its only got...
I looked at a civic but again the level of kit for the money was poor.You would think honda would build on the reliability of their engines and give a good level of spec to match.the 182 is the better ~~~ rounder imho

When i picked my car up on 12 miles it was returning 31mpg.Its now on 700 and returing 36mpg on the same route i take
Also on optimax from birth as it made a big difference to my 172,so it seams logical to carry on

Auotocar tested the new scoob against the new cup i think a couple of months back and the clio won around the twisty track they had.I think that was an estate but its still 4wd

Well said martynh........Also what about turbo cars that dont run correctly...Theres more chance of a scoob not running right with lack of a tune than a standard n/a car.....I raced a green "r" reg scoob turbo in my 172 and was all over it,it was pouring crap out of the exhaust and it was...
Ive done 700 miles now and yesterday i noticed a small squeeking from the boot area.It sounded like the parcel shelf at first but i ran up the road without it in and it still did it
Anyone any ideas???

Wheres all the stickers gone on the black cover at the front
Has it had a re-spray??

The new russian owner has sorted it out a bit and even delayed the release of the car to make it more reliable.Its always been a bit of a love affair to own a TVR with the reliability not being the best but since they made their own AJP engine for the cerbera a few years back they have got a...
