For the Renault dealer bought cars, there is a company at Southampton Docks which fits their alarms, as none of the cars come into Britain with them. Think it depends on the insurance company, some are happy with any alarm/immobiliser and others demand a Thatcham one.

I think that they will be very popular with people who are fed up of cars looking so alike.

Ben, once again John is to try to sort things out for you. I have given him your e-mail address again. OK?

Yes, stop that swearing Keith!

Could it be so that he can come on here and say "My CTR thrashed a 172"!!??

Have you sorted out your rubbish dealer yet Nick, regarding your oil leak?

Hope there wont be any potholes where this extremely low car will be driven, otherwise the bottom of the spoliers will be scraped along the ground! How would you open the doors near a kerb? Would the bottom edge rub on the pavement?

PS: I know because I have one, been there and got the tee-shirt!

You should have no problems and it doesnt cost any more. Some insurance companies ask if it is a UK spec import and if so it is treated the same as any UK bought car.

I hope your letter has been written Geoff - that is shocking!

What is OutKa5ts picture of at the top of this page? I can only see a red cross in a box!

Telford Mike, obviously the leather seats and other goodies have been removed from the Clio Cup to lighten the weight and because they are quite a bit cheaper. But then I expect you know that!

Make sure that you get rid of all the orange bulbs and side repeaters too, then everything will be black and silver.

I also wash my car in the rain if the roads are muckyish, as any dirt is very easy to wash off. My neighbours have been tormenting me for years, but my car is always shiny and quite a few here have company cars and just take them to the car wash. I wouldnt be seen dead in a car wash! You cant...

I thought that indicators cancel themselves once the steering has straightened up! I suppose the next thing will be that they will play a tune at the same time as getting louder.

A friend of mine has just got a new Cooper today (not the S) and I had a drive in it. It goes well round corners but is very underpowered. Glad I didnt get one. It is bright red with horrid white 17" wheels and has some special Pirellis, which, if punctured, the car can still be driven for a...

Personally I think the difference in the 172 and the Cup will be similar to the differences between the Pug GTi6 and the Rallye. I am going into Edinburgh in the morning so I might make some enquiries!
