    Car is going on rollers today!!

    Is it standard ? You could be looking at anywhere between 170 - 180 , maybe even a little less like Ben_p says .Seems like the power varies alot from car to car .

    Rich knowsit !! Best tyres always on the back ;)

    Is it possible that an induction system decreases power instead of increasing it?

    If the filter is choking your engine you'll definitely lose power . I had a k+n apollo which did this . I now have a k+n cone filter in a custom made enclosure , the filter itself has a larger surface area than the original panel filter . Definitely pulls as hard if not harder than the oem filter .

    help with products/accessories please...

    If you get wax on any black plastic trim its a sod to get off and over time goes white . All the black trim products you see mask the white wax marks rather than remove it . To really remove any wax you need a solvent like turps . I use new look trim gel from carwashnwax.com , autoglym bumper...

    help with products/accessories please...

    I tend to buy alot of stuff from here : http://www.chemicalguysuk.com/ He's a cliosport member R9DCG aka David Graham . Usually delivers within 48 hours plus you get 10% discount as well iirc :) You definitely need some form of lube , i.e. shampoo or the clay will mark your paintwork

    help with products/accessories please...

    Leave your car wet after you wash it , and use a weak mix of shampoo and water in a spray bottle instead of the clay lube . You want plush microfibres for removing polish and wax , a waffle weave towel for drying your car . For polishing i prefer the german applicators , they give more...

    First things to do on Clio 197

    Steer clear of the k+n apollos . I had one on my 182 , it choked the engine so i ebayed it . That was after the engine stopped and the AA had to tow me home .

    mp3 burning program

    No problem . Let me know if you've sorted it .

    mp3 burning program

    Like Pettsi says , Nero . Sounds like your trying to burn the songs as audio rather than mp3 . You need to burn them as data ( iso ) On a 700mb cd you should easily fit on 200 songs .

    182 MICHELINS

    You sure they said "each " and not quoted you for 2 tyres . That sounds more like kwik fits prices tbh

    Washig with Purified Water???

    Your on about reverse osmosis water . We have a Reverse Osmosis unit at work . It basically purifies the water and removes all the chemicals added at the water treatment plant that can leave water spots on your car if you leave the water to dwell on the paintwork . But they are usually used on...

    which tyres?

    I found mytyres cheaper than anywhere online or local ( within a 30 mile area ) took 48 hours to arrive :)

    which tyres?

    Contis are pretty good Ben , but as others have said , Pe2's are where it's at . Much better grip in the wet imo :) None of them lasted that long for me though . The contis i had on the front of my 172 lasted 7.5k miles , the Pe2's on my 182 lasted 8k miles :eek:

    Clio's big brother - been here a week so thought I should post some pics

    Looks sweet mate , lovely colour . Tbh i quite like the F1 decals on the front and back , just not sure about the ones on the roof tho' . I'll say it before someone else does . Is the left side tailpipe slightly skew whiff or is it just the angle of the pic ?

    Black Trim

    Try wd40 , thats what i use for black trim . Once you've got white wax marks on your black plastic trim its virtually impossible to get off unless you use a solvent like turps . All the products you see like autoglym bumper care just mask the marks for a short while then they return . If your...
