supervised or not, that's just stupid. no extra pedals in case of emergencies. and 180bhp (ish) with someone without a license is asking for trouble. it has happened admittedly not very often when people panic and floor it, now that amounts to a lot of unnecessary speed in a 1.0 micra nevermind...

Mate you are an absolute star. My insurance is due in a few weeks time and you have just saved me another £200. Mum and sister both with just provisionals. I don't know how that works out as less of a risk on a 182 but i like it.

i had this exact problem, pulling off kerbs, speed bumps. drove me insane. You know what it was? Where the tailgate closes onto the rear quarters there are some small rubber stop type things that stop the bodywork touching. i pulled it out a bit and that was the end of it. have a look at that...

I for 1 never follow anyone onto a level crossing unless they are clear of it and there is room for me. although he was a t**t, you must have been up his ass if he stopped after the crossing with not enough room for you to clear it.

thats a bummer mate. I had it done twice to my 182. Although I had it repaired fairly cheaply by a friend its still a pain and shouldn't happen.

There's a place called Heatons in bamber bridge on the corner of club street. They do many a classic car/kit cars but be advised they are fairly expensive but are really good. I have used them a few times when I have had my rear quarter scratched and a bumper respray on my old car.

Are you sure its wrapping film bud. there's a lot of crap out there that is advertised as wrapping film but ISNT. even with heat it will peel after a while especially if it goes through cold and hot phases.

when my dephaser was shot, that was the exact noise it made. luckily my cambelt was due so got it in good time.

This was the problem with mine, new clamps every few week and loads of silicone but it kept coming back. The cat had a crack in it just under where the clamp goes. 2nd hand cat and its not whistled for about 6months now.

i bought 1 for the 182 once, failed miserably when i read the instructions and realised i had no spare wheel to use and didn't have a foot pump at the time to use if my original tyres got too low to drive on.

I am contemplating turning mine off, as they came on the other day when my wipers started going faster. A van was waiting at a stop junction and he shot forward when my auto lights flicked on.

At least your potential excitement didn't put you in there with the blinkers on. A lot of people go in buying a car just wanting that type of car, buy the first one they look at then come on here and moan that its got problems, seller didn't tell me this etc. Its best to bring a friend in each...

i used to like this one at one point, even considered getting it when i had my 1.2, then i bumped it before i had chance. blessing in disguise...

y not run the box on there now until it gives up. may last longer than you think and perhaps save you forking out unnecessarily

For people to use winter tyres in this country I think we really need some seriously bad weather this time and the next. Not because we don't need them but because to the average person winter tyres mean snow tyres. And it is going to take a whole lot of snow and accidents and tailbacks to get...

Utter c**ts, i feel for you buddy. i had exactly the same happen over the course of about 2months. Keyed twice on the same rear quarter. At first i though it may have possibly been somewhere else(car park at asda etc) so i had it repainted and then it happened again. fuming i was so i left it...

mine did exactly the same the other week. turned the key to start and got a fast clicking noise, no attempt to fire or anything, sounded electrical. turned out to be a drained battery. booster pack to the rescue and it started fine first time. no problems since it had a good run to charge properly.

I wouldn't recommend that you do the front bumper or the rear quarter, especially petrol cap side as these are the places where the trimming is key and the heating/stretching needs to be perfect. The best thing you can do is literally rip the car to pieces and do bits at a time, that way you...

I think they definitely saw you coming. No doubt the kwik-fit bulbs will probably be from the above website or similar. They wont be genuine renault neway.

1 thing to check if you havent already. i have literally just found this to be the case on mine after mashing my head for weeks. as you lift the tailgate, where it shuts there are two rubber 'bungs' to cushion the impact of the lid and to keep it in a 'tight' position. over time they wear down...

Ahh, great stuff. thanks to the man with the unlock pin suggestion. Popped it straight into ebay and bobs your uncle. £4 later and all is well. Cheers

Popular misconception. It has nothing to do with an actual service as such. it means there is a fault somewhere in the system. it usually appears with another light.

Hello chaps, i just need to ask a quick question. What is the part called that you pull up to unlock a car door from the inside. i need to order a part for my dads car and i haven't got a clue what this part is called. The small black 'shaft' type piece ontop of the door card, Cheers for any...

mine was blowing for ages, original exhaust and the rs192. tried paste, silicone everything. nothing worked. then i decided to take the cat off to have a proper look at it. there was a small crack on the cat where the clamp goes over it and it opened up every time the clamp was tightened. bought...

how paranoid would you be with it beeping and vibrating every time someone gets near it, some people on here wouldnt be able to cope.

usually oil level if its just serv

i had this for months and months. i bought an rs192 and again it was the same, cat to centre join. turned out to be that the cat had a very small crack on the top of the flange join. second hand cat and it is silent.

As above. you would instinctively brake whether you're 2car lengths from hitting a stationary vehicle at 70mph. i know if i pressed the brake pedal to disengage CC and it didnt work, it would be getting pressed twice as hard within half a second of me realising it didnt.

if he has thousands of pounds lurking about maybe. if you want a wrap doing go for it. if you want a matt wrap, you should also get a matt laminate to go with it. most places that do wraps should offer this in with the price neway. it would be daft not to. as for stone chips, a wrap with...

Re: F*CK SAKE! Help!!!! was it not a mate pi**ing about. as said if it was some scrote then im sure they would have done a lot worse.
