Had Toyo T1R's on my 205 Gti, half a day at brands and they were destroyed. The pattern had worn away to points so you had next to no grip by lunch time so the rest of the day was pretty rubbish. I've got P Zero Nero's at the moment, a bit pricey, about £140 for two but i think they're very...

Whats the best stuff for removing all the scratches from my car. None of them are major just there are quite alot of them. Do i go down the T cut route or is there something better? Can anyone recommend a good wax/polish for the car? Cheers All

Would it be any good in a Road car or is it strictly race?

Found on ebay, don't know if anyone knows what it is. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Renault-clio-cup-ecu-172-182-race-car-track-car_W0QQitemZ270369308975QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item270369308975&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=66%3A2%7C65%3A10%7C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318...

If you've got an old type license with either B + E or B1 ( I think ) then you can tow a trailor over 750kgs. If it's a newer license you can't tow anything that weighs more than 750kgs without doing a test. Not sure if that helps

Its a 54 reg and came from Bexhill so it was only half an hour from me. Went to halfrauds yesterday and got some colour match wax for it so i can hide the chips, only been driving it for less than 48 hours and its filthy already. But living in the countryside with horses, tractors and mud just...

Picked it up yesterday, its a black 182 with 55,000 miles on the clock. Took me ages to find someone who would take my Volvo S70 in part exchange but i did it and after parting with £4000 its now mine. Only thing i've found i don't like with it is the car being black it shows up all the stone...

I'm in the process of buying another clio. My first car was a 1.2 Clio, then after after few other cars i brought a Ph1 172, then after another few car i brought a Williams 3 and a few more cars and i'm buying a 182 this Saturday. So in answer to the question yes i would buy another Renault.

Here's a link to the advert, http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/RENAULT-CLIO-SPORT-2-0l-182-bhp_W0QQitemZ320351422052QQcmdZViewItemQQptZAutomobiles_UK?hash=item320351422052&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=66%3A2%7C65%3A7%7C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318 Been trying to work out what its got, but think its jst a 182 FF

Just rang the guy turns outs its not a cup but its got the goodies in the car like cruise control which is what i was after. The belts have been done and its on a 54 reg and in black. Even though its not a cup still think its a good price.

Guy who I have been talking to has offered me his 182 cup for £4700. It's done 53k miles has fsh and the car is in excellent condition. Is this a good price given the current climate? Cheers all

Think you've got it in your favour that you live further North than i do. I live just South of London and the cars round me always seem to be the most expensive in the country. As someone else said if you can't get the price down to a reasonable amount just walk away. Then if they've still...

I've also been looking at Cups as i'm after another clio. When i asked a similar question about 2 weeks ago i was told around the £4k mark for a 172 with 40,000 miles. Been out looking at some over the weekend and if you pay less than 4 you get one with 60k + miles. I went and looked at two...

I'm after a new car and have a budget of just over £5000. It needs to be a good road car but i also do track days so needs to be able to cope with some track work. My previous car was a Phase 1 172, which i put some coilovers on and loved it. It was a good everyday car and good fun on the...

My mate/local garage will do them for around £200 plus the cost of the belt. He's done about 5-6 now.

The prices of private sales are low at the moment. The problem i have is i've got to trade my old car in so i've got to go to a dealer unless i can find a private seller who will take a p/x.

I'm going to probably go and look at the 172, but also found a 182 with 60k, 1 owner mint condition for £5200. Only reason i have to go to a dealer is to trade in my old car. Going to use the cambelt as a bargining (sp?) tool, my mate will do the cambelt for £200 all in but should be able to get...

I'm after a 172 or 182 at the moment and am wondering what sort of price i should be looking to pay for an 03 plate 172 or an 04 plate 182 with about 60,000 on the clock and in fairly good condition? There is a 172 on an 03 plate with 36,000 miles, 1 owner, FSH, and in immaculate condition for...

They changed to bodies after 2001 if i remember correctly. I really wouldn't bother if i'm honest. I'm half way through putting R1 carbs on my 205 GTi and its a pain in the a**e. Its cost me about £450 so far and they will need setting up and constantly adjusting.

Got the car up for sale at the moment, i'm sure i'll get a much better deal if i went in with a wad of cash to put down. What should i try and aim to get it down to?

That's £100 for the labour

Can get the cam belt done for £100 so its not really an issue for me.

Had a look on Autotrader, and its the only trade one's cheaper than it have done 73,000 miles. Have to get it from a garage as i want to p/x and need the finance as well. Tried to knock some money off it but they wouldn't budge.

Was driving past my local renault dealer and sitting out the front of the dealership was a very nice looking 172 cup. Went in to have a look and now i'm thinking about buying it. The dealership wants £7200 for it, i'm not sure if this is a good price or not. Its on an 03 plate and has done...

I've got the twin cat fitted to mine so don't think i'd be able to cut it down to fit. Does it need to be made much shorter? If i fit a decat going to have the problem of when i come round to do the MOT won't be able to get it to pass, would surely then have to put the standard manfold and cat...

As the title says i want to fit the 182 manifold onto my 172. Only thing being do you have to buy the sports cat from KTR? Or can you fit it another way? Cheers All, and Merry Christmas

I had exactly the same problem, found out the cause was one of the dampers was knackered. Caused the car to feel like the back was slipping out round a corner.

I've got a knocking noise coming from the rear of my clio and its driving me nuts. It sounds like its coming from the drivers side rear shock. Don't think the shock is broken because i put new spax coilovers on 6 months ago. Wonder if it could be the rear beam mounts? Going to check the engine...

I've got the same sort of noise. Sounds like something as rattling on the rear struts. But can't be that the struts are nackered because i replaced mine not long ago. Think it could maybe be the rear axel mounts. Any ideas?

Mine's making a funny knocking noise from the back of the car. Its driving me nucking futs. Think its coming from one of the rear sturts, not sure though. For the sake of my sanity does anyone have any ideas? Cheers All
