Mines got a new mot, 4 new tyres and FSH, up for £999 and i've not had one single person on it! Unless they're 1/2 owner minters these things aren't worth a w**k nowadays.

Holy s**t! That was bad! Glad I never raced it now! lol.

Great work! (But those wheels do it no favours) Fantastic to see another mk1 on the forum. :)

Should do. I use stuff called 'descaling acid'. It's horrible stuff but you only need to use it once. Spray on, pressure wash off, protect the wheels and then after that just use normal citrus based/other weak crap to clean them. Acid is really only for properly neglected wheels.

if it's caked on s**t, you want something with a strong acid content. I use neat acid in work and it genuinely fcuks if off. Something like this...

Why would tar remover remove brake dust??

It means I need to collect it mon-fri 9-5, as you want to pay the cash in the bank before you release the car. 90% of the cars I sell are at weekends or evenings as most people work. Don't get upset about criticism, we're trying to help you sell the car.

Very odd I must admit. Wants to sell something, won't accept money. :S

I've gone all warm inside...

Lovely car. Shame about the owner.

Most specialists on here (I know, I checked) are cheaper for belt changes than the average garage. My local garage (been using him around 10 years, trust him implicitly) just looks on autodata and charges £35 an hour for however many hours autodata says. Book time on a 172/182 for both belts...

The original engine dropped a valve, so they fitted a new* engine and didn't bother to renew the belt kits? *the cheapest they could find on ebay

Sorry my bad. I just looked at your username and it says your car is a 1.2 clio. I was being presumptive. (it clearly didn't work!) In that case, buy a 1.0 Micra/corsa. Christ, i'd even look at a 700cc daewoo or something! As soon as you've got 1 years no claims at 18, your insurance will...

When I was 17, we used to find out what was the cheapest car to insure and then buy one. Rather than buy a car then try to find cheap insurance.

Grumpy chip is grumpy.

I'd try a new battery first. Dying batteries play havoc with that era of megane/scenic.

A dirty ph2 though?! Ph1 is where it's at warren.

Just fit a cat. Easiest cheapest option and less hassle at MOT time.

Diesel on the road?

I really REALLY like that!

That gives me a hardon. My perfect Impreza.

If i was you, new cup shocks and cooksport springs. Best mix for primarily road use and occasional track use imo.

I've still no idea where that is or even if it's still alive. :( Good work though coops, can't beat a mk1! (well, you can, but you know what I mean)

It's in Wales it will be rusty.

Daniel didn't say that, because it's Renault Wolverhampton. ;)

It's a renault dealer and they're a member on here.

I've got one of these. Worth every penny. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/U480-Universal-OBD2-CAN-BUS-Fault-Code-Reader-Scanner-diagnostic-scan-tool-UK-/321360042220?pt=UK_Diagnostic_Tools_Equipment&hash=item4ad28d18ec

Wtf??

Slow down cowboy. How did you ruin your current units? Why can't they be repaired?
