Nope never is. Then agian neither is buying a 172 over a 1.2 or diesel basic spec car. Ther eno logic in running a 172/1.6/1.4/1.2 16V/dci100 etc the 1.2 8V and dci65 are cheaper. Its more a fun hobby you'd spend £50 on drinks on a night out say spending on the cars much the same.

The most reliable ones are usualy the ones which are hammered everywhere.

£40 or so from a breakers

Stock brakes are fine harder pads are handly but thats all.

They sell the door cards I'm sure yep. They dont sell the seperate materials.

Yep.

Yep.

Nope oronage only was a Cup spec option.

You'll need oveer 400hp though first.

My MPG is getting down this low at the moment its terrible isn't it

Check the earth on your rear light its inside the car on the passenger side about 1 foot in from where the rear light is just below the rear seat belt. Ther always problem check your resitance etc.

Could be worn bushes or dampers its no huge worry get the wheel of and have a look if you want.

The 172 isn't the greatest thing ever though. No point IMO ever skinting yourself or having to stop doing anything just because of a car.

Re: Mk1 F1 conversion q's The old mounts unbolt the new one boltonto the old mounts positions. Not sure if there the same chnage them anyway. Driveshafts are fine I'd chnage them though the vlaver ones are stronger and Renault did this for a reason. No point trying to do it in bits realy...

You cannot share them if thee downloaded you can if your after the ones for the mobile I think the ones on CD won't work either.

A uni chip etc is only as good as the mapper.

Thats going to be a fortune to fix unless you get very lucky, even then £4k easy in mate rate to paint and buy the parts. More likly £7k There asking way to much half price is much more accurate.

I meant to check today as I've got both here. I'll try get some of the 172 one tomorrow.

Any one who does custom remap. Dave Walker or Chip wizards.

Unless you've done 100k hard driving then the clutch will be fine it will be a seal or somehting which has damagd the clutch so you need to fix that more importantly.

Bilstein humm, there low end replacing stuff isn't very good in my experiance. Renault stuffs better.

Its not a problem

You can do it either way depends what you want to do. Just drop the subframe on one side and pull it out though the hole you've got or take the engine out. Engine outs easy if you intend chnaging the cambelt at the same time.

58mm for definate unless its been bodge after a crash. It wouldn't be 54mm as thats the 172 only ones.

What you been doing in this neck of the woods?

Thats was a private crash repair that black one. I thik theres a yellow one as well but abroad and agian not a Renault colour was resprayed.

AUX belt should be chnaged when the cambelt is after all it has to come off to get to the cambelt. 72k/5 years for all phase 2 cars however if you don't have a warently I'd chnage ever 60k or 4 years.

For a daily runner get a cheap to run car IMO not a valver or WIlliams. Get a diesel etc.

Search round for the bulbs there DS2 I think from memory. You cna pick them up cheap. No need to remove the light to change them if you do want to do it that was (there not much space) then you need to remove the front bumper to get at the bottom two bolts the third one holding the light in is...
