right Steve, ill give you a few months on your car to get used to it, then you can practise on an unmodified example of french engineering, don't worry i won't charge you much!
looks like you were ok in the lottery of renault failures!
keep a lookout on ebay etc, sometimes i see standards ones go on after an aftermarket has been put on the car...
that was probably me mate, its only a 1.2 but f**k me does it fly!
not really, did it have an oval exhaust on it?i see one most mornings parked at Acordis with a big oval pipe in the back.
and i forgot to ring you up today mate, actually had some work to do!sorry!
fair does on the insurance mate.
i meant i'd pay for your insurance and be a passenger if its only a tenner!
i would never trust myself to drive a car like that yet, especially if i didnt own it, be gutted if i crashed it!
they are nice cars, would love one myself.
wow, that looks perfect ph1 material!
and from your user name im guessing your female, and with a car like this you must be stunning, get some pics up!lol
lol, i would happily pay yours days insurance for a spin in one!
would probably mean i would want one after that, but thats not exactly a bad thing!
why july?
^ yeah i know, my dad got it me for my 18th!
hes got a V12 jag and i love it so he bought it as a bit of a joke.
i think ill be getting somethin like a Aston when im 21, then the plate can go on!
cool, i like a bit of dirt, suits it!
silver takes more time to build up though i think, with mine if i do a 2 miles trip down a country road after i've cleaned it and its dried fully, its noticable dirty and doesnt look like ive cleaned it at all!
yeah was good fun!
was just after christams so there was lots of salt on the roads, plus there was about 40 miles of fun country roads!
i thought of it as adding character.
al, that pic is cool, how long did it take to get that much crap on it?

then after a clean, i know i missed a bit!^
nah al's car sucked! (not)
its fairly easy to do, clay u just rub over the body work, then rewash, then polish and wax.
i normally do it the weekend before payday because i can't afford to go out!
yeah, i clay mine every couple of months, and polish and wax every month if i can just to keep the paint looking good, and it does look awesome, but then as soon as i pull out of my drive my wheels go back to black and the paint gets covered in crap!
all good fun though i suppose, i bought my...
my 1.2?
if so thanks, its a bit s**t at the minute, bits of damage here and there, 50% lowered, tracking fooked!
i don't know, i like the light blue ones, silver is nice.
i would have a black if the car was a good one, i do love black clios its just the cleaning, depends how picky you are really!
wouldnt get black to be honest mate, a b**ch to keep clean, especially if you don't have time to wax and polish etc on a regular basis.
thats just my opinion though.
no there aren't too many around really, just have to wait to fins a nice one that is what you want.
theres a nice one on...
well on mine, inside the car the handbrake handle had play in it side to side, which i personally never noticed, they failed it on that.
wanted to charge me £90 to tighten up the 2 nuts, which i got another garage to check over, they then tried to charge me for the retest because i took it off...
they can and will, failed mine for a loose handbrake, the actual handle.
a bloke my dad knows used to work for a renault garage near scotland as an MOT tester, a selling point at this dealers was the first MOT free, and he was told to find an MOT failure on 50% of the cars that came in for a...
