Coolant - you want Renault Type D, I don't think there is anything else that matches it. If you put the wrong stuff in it can make a mess.
Oil, something that meets RN0710, RN0700
I can get you the 20% discount applied if you want @JP83. I get the discount for working for the NHS, and can have up to 4 friends and family - nobody in my family is on Voda so they are going unused.
PM me if interested
I really meant in between cleans, etc. The 30 minutes or so while you are washing the car should be ok. Are they genuine Valet Pro ones? could be cheapo's. Where you getting them from?
I've got the Samsung smart remote. I use the pointer all the time, it's like using a Wii remote. I've used the voice recognition before, but it's a bit of a novelty that soon wears of!
On there site you can choose 'Standard UK plates' and in the t's & c's they state '
Number plates ordered from our Standard UK Plates section are manufactured to BS AU 145d standard and comply with UK legislation'
You'll be fine with them as long as you choose the std plates.
Plex for me too. PC in the garage with 4tb of storage, hard wired gigabit connections all around the house. Samsung smart TV with plex app. Oh, and 152mbps Virgin media, downloading at 15 - 20MB per second is fun! Takes no longer than 15 minutes to locate and download whatever we want to watch...
If it were me - i'd be looking to save the cash to put towards getting my own place, not blowing 5k+ on a Clio.
Buying/renting your own home is only ever going to get more expensive, the earlier you get on the ladder the better.
lol at cherry bomb, have I gone back in time to the late 80's early 90's?
Personally i'd say 2", maybe 2.25", 2.5" will be overkill. I'm looking to upgrade the exhaust on my S40 at somepoint, and that's only likely to be 2.5" and that's for something turbocharged and 300+ bhp.
1 very small update - i've pranged it! lol
Backed into a metal gate, in my defence i've never known this gate to be closed and it's at a funny height. I couldn't see it in my rear view and the parking sensors didn't pick it up!
No big deal, just needs a boot lid - i'm keeping my eye out on...
We bought a JVC one in 2012 for about your budget. I have to be honest, the video quality from my iPhone 6 is much much better than that of the camcorder. The only good thing on the JVC is the 40x optical zoom.
For that budget would it be worth looking into a second hand DSLR of some sort...
Best to take a look youself, could have been trying to get business. Take the rear wheel off and inspect the discs for wear and damage, then check the meat left on the pads. This will give you an accurate idea.
Most of the things people are listing in here (brakes, oil, filters, suspension, tyres) are regular maintenence items. If you fail to keep on top of the servicing then of course things will go wrong!
It didn't cause any issues in the 12 months + that I ran it for. There's loads on 197.net that have the issue too, if it is that of course.
Have a look in the brake fluid header, it's easy to tell if superblue was used, it's well err blue! It could potentially happen with other fluids, it just...
C5, Valet pro brush and EZ Brush for me, then once every month or 2 I take them off and give the back a good clean. Comes up like new with very little effort.
I have to be honest, the C5 isn't as good as I hoped it would be, I still get tar spots etc that won't shift without a decent...

I answered a similar question recently, this should cover what you need at this service.
