Ever since I had my air con regassed my windscreen appears to have this greasy-like marks that appear over time that looks like it needs de-misting, but it doesn't clear with the heater. They sort of look like smear marks as if I haven't dried it properly when washing the car. Definately on the...

Yours was that little bit extra though than just a “standard” Ph1. For that money I would want a bit more than standard and well loved

I have been wtaching this too as I am after another Ph1. Although being an Exclusive I am not 100% tempted to just go and buy it and deal with having to sell my daily car after, plus not being at home during the week atm too to sort out selling the car and that. I think it is a good price, I...

Mine used to drop to cold/off when the fan kicked in and then when the fan stopped it then jumped back to the temeprature it was. Turned out to be a faulty temp sensor. And yes it is under the air box area on the side of the engine.

I've omitted I have the Ph1 disease

From when my PAS high pressure pipe went I looked at it and thought that is a pig of a job and took it to a garage, who i think made it into a bit of a mamoth task by dropping the sub frame and complained to me that it was far too difficult, and from comments on here was totally un-necessary. I...

If the Exlcuisve was to be a second car I would buy it and swap the interior without a thought. But as it is to be the daily I don't want to put that much effort into it.....yet. Odessey Blue, Scarab Green (just ruined with the interior!) and Flame Red are the best colours IMO.

And OEM. Another reason I am on the lookout for one is the potential value in them. The Exlcusive on Atuotrader has 26k miles and they are asking £8k, that is far too much at the moment.

I can see Ph1's getting to that money but not at the moment.

Yours has a ncie clean engine bay without like it has too much effort or things being removed and a mega clean or a recent strip down and paint. 166k miles......Mine was on 177k when I sold it and it was solid, I could see it going to >200k if I had kept it, although I was about to get a full...

I used Gyeon Rim Q2 and the Gyeon Q2M Cure on my new wheels. This was to help prevent the brake dust casuing havoc on track. Worked a treat. I went with this as it said it could handle high heat and chemicals. Also helped to keep the wheels clean and were easer to clean to. I will be using it...

Not quite 100% Clio related....but the same priciples will surely be used! On my BW E34 the inner lip of the wheel arches is starting to go a little rusty. I want to stop it now before it gets too bad. Without having the car on me I have drawn a picture showing the bit I mean I have ran my...

Can always gob the exhaust mount full of Tiger Seal to create a "solid" one....my brother did this on mine and it worked a treat and never had any issues from it.

2002 (02 plate), hatch back, silver, sun roof (apparently rare?), new clutch, cambelt and tension, water pump and oil pick up pipe in March at 118k miles, currently on 123k. Air con re-gassed then too. New front tyres, nice custom made centre and rear section stainless steel exhaust however is...

Daily. I've lost the love of a track car. I always wanted a second for a daily drive.

Oh and don't worry the E34 535 will not be going.

Mk1 Octavia vRS. It's not that it's an awful car as it's fantastic tbh and would highly recommend. It's just I'm an idiot and like Clio's. This is the Clio I have seen. Nothing major appears to be wrong, apart from wheels and rear bumper https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/122697977776

It's happened....Im looking at Ph1's again after selling mine. Would sell the vRS and buy a Ph1 to use every day. Have seen a black on on eBay for reasonable money....

I took half a bucket of water out of my sills the other year. Not sure how long that was sitting in there, not my problem any more as I don't own the car! Tbh that doesn't look too bad, I've seen worse. And no, rivets are not too pikey. Adds to that "race car look". Just keep the car living!

I'm reporting this post for indecent images....it's like pornography. Little annoyed I sold mine now looking at this. As the next thing to do on mine was throttle bodies.

If you have a set of new injectors on the way I would just swap them so they are all new. Piece of mind and that. Keep the three good ones as spares in case you need them. I had to replace one last year in March and then another in May. Should have just swapped them all in March tbh.

If I am not too late to the party but get them coated once painted in some kind of protector/sealant. I painted my wheels orange a few years ago and looked mega smart. Put them on the car and after a few months the brake dust started to eat the paint away between the spokes. In hindsight I...

You are having the same thoughts I had about my Clio with how much it will cost against what's it's worth. The maths won in my case and I sold it. Are you able to finish it to a road car standard? That might make it worth a bit more plus it will be a hoot to drive like what you are after.

As promised a few pictures of the new car, BMW E34 535i And just after I have washed it this morning. Would like to polish it and put some kind of hydrophobic coating on it, like my brother has on his car. Mother thinks I am mad as I picked it up last night and off on holiday to Devon in...

Happy with that price, but just don't want to use Flux if I have to. Never been a fan of them after messing me about in the past. Plus I am in a hotel tonight away with work so not really that much to do tonight lol!

My new BMW will qualify for classic car policy being from 1989 so wondering who people reccomend. Greenlight won't insure it a its RWD so had to cancel the Clio's policy. Footman James thought I was too young. Flux offered £120. Any others to try? I'm 27, 10 years no claims, no accidents...

Project Clio has came to an end. The new owner has just picked it up. It's been an eventful 4.5 years of ownership! Time to move on. Already bought the new car, my friend eventually tempted me with his BMW E34 535i. He just needs to put some new front shocks on it first....unless he is trying...

Mine is for sale.....

What other Renault steering wheels fit a Ph1 Clio? I need one with an air bag so was going up the scrappy to get one but want to keep my options open. Is it any Renault of the same period/age? Megane/Laguna/Scenic....
