Magnex backboxes for Mk1 and Mk2 are the same part numbers.

woooohooo nice one - dont think Ive seen it since Nurburgring last Easter!

Trying to spot a good date to go in early July - theres nothing special scheduled by the looks of things

fair comment I guess if thats what youre looking for, but Im not sure anyone could drive a 355bhp rwd Clio! Thered be carnage!

Remember, ABS is there to allow you to steer - it doesnt guarantee to stop you!

He doesnt fancy you - sorry!

I get all the junk mail from York Dragway listing all the headline events, but do they run a RWYB every weekend during the summer?

Itll be out in 2005, but dont get too excited. The first models will be 1.2, 1.4 and diesel engines, which account for the greatest volume. Renaultsport version isnt due until 2006, and theres no hard info on engine etc yet.

Depends on your preference really. Theres a school of thought that says front-drive cars work well if you can dial in a bit of oversteer - knackered rear tyres are a good recipe for this! *edit* on track anyway :oops:

Itll be fine mate - have a positive mindset, and enjoy the ultimate retail therapy of a new car :D

Very sorry to hear about that Helen, their public liability insurance (part of their home policy) should cover it. Best of luck anyway.

OK Im in :D http://www.mike.easley.dsl.pipex.com/megane172.jpg

My first set of Contis were completely knackered at 6k, and Ive never really done any better since - now been through 4 or 5 sets.

handy guide on how to do it http://www.cliosport.net/articles/oilchange/index.asp?here.

Dealer did mine at 6k, cost about £70 (was in a hurry had a trackday the next day)

It will go a bit higher, but not much, as the back-box would hit the underneath of the car.

LOL, have you tried taking a little more water with it?

Unfortunately not - it takes a week or two (have a look at the membership processing thread in the Club Questions forum).

membership is £5, you can join via paypal - details http://www.cliosport.net/club.asphere

OK heres another pic - I wouldnt say this is too in yer face? http://homepages.tesco.net/~mmikee/zorst/zorst2.jpg

It does eliminate the rattle, and I believe it makes your car go a bit faster (the noise alone must be worth about 50bhp!) http://www.mike.easley.dsl.pipex.com/zorst7.jpg

LOL yes but believe it or not the VX has a cup-holder! Youre right about getting in and out of it though - nightmare!

It is absolutely fantastic, and if you were a member of this club youd have saved about £30 on it too. http://homepages.tesco.net/~mmikee/zorst/zorst4.jpg

The standard pads last a long time - I think I got 18,000 out of mine, including a lot of trackdays. Changed them for Tar-ox fast road pads which are a lot better on the track (dont fade).

In particular it would be good to see them at events like trackdays.

Mine does that at the moment, and it does seem to get worse as the pads wear. No idea why though. Of course it could be that the roads are getting worse and your brakes are fine :p

Well we welcome anyone I guess, but I think Chris was asking about more formal welcoming, as in joining the club (or an offshoot of it). Personally I think that we should retain our alignment with Clio (i.e. all Clios), rather than Renaultsport.

But theyve all got Clios :confused: The place for all things Megane is currently http://www.coupe-club.co.ukhttp://www.coupe-club.co.uk Its small compared to Cliosport but theyre very knowledgable and helpful.

A good set of quotes Jeremy :D Out of the cars Ive driven Id venture to suggest that a VX220 turbo is pretty similar in terms of character and involvement. Costs less too. Having said that Id still buy a Clio V6 if I could live with a 2 seater.

LOL, yeah, the Wonderwheels stuff pops up everywhere. It is really good though.
