    Someone in Phillidelphia keeps signing me up to stuff?

    Gmail doesn't notice dots (as it states in the above link). Just start clicking 'reject' on anything you can .. or emailing back telling them to do one ! I still think this is the most elaborate Revlols prank ever... Soon you'll be legally married to someone in Philli and have 3 kids and a...

    2.5k to spend

    Buy on condition not milage. Also I personally wouldn't touch a "1-lady owner" car with someone elses pole. It's either A- complete lie because they think people want that, or B- means it's a shed. The lady owners who know what mechanical sympathy, tyre wear bars, warming/cooling, journeys...

    Are Clios galvanised?

    T'was full of mud ? Or t'was yours ? Or t'was a write off !? :rasp:

    Are Clios galvanised?

    Try again ;) There is no quater panel. It's a clever French design meaning one little bump at the rear and the whole car is a write off. I bet those arches are (or were if that's yours pre-op, saltyscone) full of wet mud.

    Are Clios galvanised?

    Never seen much rust on any RS Clio. Little bit of mess inside the bonnet, and the boot, but nothing on the outside anywhere in my experience.

    Are Clios galvanised?

    People don't clean out the arches. The mud sits there and stays damp... eventually it goes wrong !

    Hi all!!

    Ahh.. my bad. Can't go wrong with a Yozza IMO :) Best made exhausts out there. Ring Fred@BTM if you can't find a decent 2nd hand one ! Good luck ;)

    I think I've done ok here! Bought my 172!

    Might want to take that strip of gaffa-tape off the number plate ;) VickyX had best organise another meet soon... Where abouts in Essicks are you ?

    think 15" alloys are too small?

    Hi all!!

    Hi Kath. Welcome. First things first - ignore the sharks ! Secondly, the exhaust - in my experience, if the backbox has gone, the rest is soon to follow and to just get it all done in one go. Is it all original or has it been replaced at some point ? If it's all as it came out the factory...

    Tail Happy 182

    Ouch. :dapprove: I thought boxes were more like £2/250, not £400...

    think 15" alloys are too small?

    15's on a DB9 ? Stupidly small. Probably wouldn't get over the discs, let alone the callipers. 15's on a small French hatch ? Perfect. Lighter than larger wheels, tyres are cheaper too. 15's on a lowered small French hatch, even better. :approve: Don't go bigger than 16" on the Clio...

    Tail Happy 182

    Why a grand ?! It's not a Subaru. You're near Fred.. call him.
  17. TheEvilGiraffe

    Urgent (possibly legal) advice needed - 172 has just come back from mechanic...

    Not at all... Plenty of 172s on here for that price. £1500, you're in trouble. £2500, normal price.

    Frayz in his shiny bean !

    I thought it might be you when you came up behind me on the slip ! :rasp: Stu's wheels.. :nono: Good luck with the 'ring !!

    Car looks tidy dude.. I still can't wait to see the Batmobile when it's done !! :approve:

    Tail Happy 182

    Get some decent rubber on there .. ditch finders should only be spotted in ditches, by themselves. But also visually check the shocks for leaks. Failing that, push the car side to side at the rear, or open the door, step on the, er, step (!?) and bounce the car up and down. If it takes more...

    what colour should i get my OZ F1's done in?

    Here's an idea.. Do the mirrors blue to match the rest of the car. Silver is the only colour to have with a blue car. Black is a no-no.

    Clio first car project

    Nice smart looking car: Not a fan of the cat-D van look personally...: :dead: Tyre shine - it makes your tyres .. er .. shine. Very much needed with black wheels.

    If anyone hasn't realised - you can click the pictures and get them from Flickr in full technicolour glory. Why bother emailing 4MB+ files ? Nice piccies, Dr. :approve:

    Adding extra speakers to 5 door mk2

    Never come across a JVC head unit that is even bordering on 'good'. Alpine or nothing for me. The standard speakers are just fine - as long as you can cut the bass to them ! Had a cheap sub in my ph1 Clio, HPF/LPF set up so the sub does the heavy stuff, and the standard speakers do the high...
