I declare everything I know of and that includes the uprated clucth. Even on my stock Clio Ive declaired the CD changer since it wasnt fitted when new.
Real cars dont have ESP (runs).
Seriously though Id keep it on until you have an idea of the track and know the true handling of the car with the ESP off.
Best speak to Yo2za on here on BenR. Your probably looking at cams a some intake work I think yoz has a kit like this for that sort of price which gets near 200hp.

What do you guys do for insurance out of interest? Tell youre current company and pay the extra? or take out special insurance for the day?
I used to pay its about 1% the value of the car plus a £500 excess. To be honest you dont need to...
What are they worried about I tracked my little dci and that definatly wasnt designed for track work the 172 will be much better.
The only time it possibly gets expensive is if you either nail it like mad and spend all day on the track and kill the front tyres or if you hit a wall etc and havnt...
Id go to Ktec they know what there doing more than most dealerships do plus they will know what a 172 is.
Might be worth asking if there a Cliosport discount.
Id love to show us none Renault sport owners do worse but Ive no protos of my car.
Some of the above attempts are poor my cars like them all the time. Ive not managed to wash my wheels since before I went to Germany so that gives you some idea what there like to anyone who saw them then.

You can always get a new dial set and get the milage fitted to any milage you want.
Or do to a digital correction place they adust them to whatever milage you want for quite cheap I think.

There been topics in the subject in the past the proper way is in the first 25 miles or less put some real load n the engine say 2nd and 3rd gear from 2k to the redline or least 5~6k thsi will help the pistons rings make a good seal in the liners so you wont get any lost pressure going past the...
RFS are unlikly to let you finance a £2k car of that ages 5 yrs would probably be about the limit.
Best ask RFS about handing the car back and going to the bank for a low interest loan. Then when you need to get the mini go to Renault garage and give them the keys and get a cab/mate to drive...
16V job had a 1.2 at the time I think.
Easy to remove the sump plug get an 8mm suare tool (or a big screwdriver) and you can get the sump plug out its round the back of the sump of the engine so park on a curb and pull yourself under the car so you can see the back of the sump and youll see the...
Probably a LAD car. They tunned the cars to a 200hp+ and sold them throught the normal dealerships with full Renault warenties.
If it is a LAD tunned cars then the 200hp bit is very dubious they wont put there cars to the test on an independant RR and many people whos cars theyve tunned are no...

i went to halfords to get sum paint and there were 2 different types of my colour?how do i know which one to go 4?
You wont, thats the fun of Renault. If it makes you feel any better Id got to have 3 cans made up to see which colour is the...
There isnt an official Renault tow bracket for te 182s so youd need a custom etc one making up. Is there no way of getting the bike in the back of the car?
There was a fake 2.0 doing the round round where I live and its a dci 65hp.
I dont see the point of badging up cars but then again Id never de-badge my cars (its sacrolige to one, and theres nothing slower to fake the badges up as for the other).
Saw a load of 182/172s today but this one had a big exhaust and Im sure it had a CS sticker.
How I never get noticed I dont know. Ive still got the ring sticker on my side window so your not going to miss it.
Even the Williams dont get spotted though :-(

There still loads more to remove from there. Ive removed even more (although I have gone soft and stuck some cream carpet in there).
