    Tow bar on a Clio 182?

    sometimes certain models of a car are not tested for towing, Therefore you can't legally tow with them believe it or not the ST 220 Mondeo isn't tested to tow either.....

    Converting fogs to sidelights?

    the wife's Fiat 500 turns the fogs off when you turn the engine off as well.... I agree flashing someone with loads of lights does look good, but driving round with your fogs permanently on is not for me...

    Converting fogs to sidelights?

    I think the ford S-max (and others) have a low wattage bulb mounted in the fog lamps which are used as a sidelights. They must also have a separate higher wattage bulb for when the lamp needs to be used as a fog lamp... If your going to wire them up with the standard bulb in then as said before...

    How important is documented service history to you?

    I think anyone into their cars probably wouldn't buy it, but your average car buyer wouldn't be too concerned (probably use it to get the car cheap). I think if it was a more sporty model you may have a bit more trouble selling it.. I bought a car in the past that only had the logbook and mot...

    Clio V6 Owners/Buyers thread.

    thought it would be that, but needing to do it every year is a bit much.... I suppose if your car is a keeper than you'd do it..

    Clio V6 Owners/Buyers thread.

    Top Thread... Just a quick question, you state that the refurb cost for the front bumper and bonnet is an annual cost why is that?

    Mk2 Clio V6 or Mk3 Clio 200

    VEE for me... it'll hold its value and running costs should still be less than the depreciation of the 200...:)

    Wheel Alignment/Geo set up in or around Doncaster?

    As above the car is pulling to the right and has worn the outside edge of the NSF tyre. I want someone that can do wheel alignment and more importantly knows how to do it correctly. Cheers.

    Little bit of mayo on oil cap?

    I must admit you do poo your pants the first time you see any signs of mayo under the oil cap. Take it for a good run and it'll go......hopefully ;)

    my dell laptop does this from one corner if I lay my arm over it whilst using the keyboard......I ignore it.

    Little bit of mayo on oil cap?

    I'd say condensation if you do short runs and taking into account the time of year. I bet if you take it for a good run 1 hour + most of the mayo will go.. I used to have a 205 Gti which has a oil filler pipe that was separate to the engine (not the usual cap on the rocker cover) and over...

The grit was flying all over it must have been making some right noise inside the megane, and guess what it was a woman driving. Why...

    sending photo's via MMS from I Phone 4

    Thanks Tom, and there was me thinking it was some kind of secret iphone handshake way of doing things. anyway back to the original post do you need to (or can you) reduce the size of the photo before MMS'ing it to another phone that isn't an iphone.

    sending photo's via MMS from I Phone 4

    recently got an Iphone 4 and all is good, but I sent a photo via MMS to two people the other day. One received the photo after a few hours and the other had to clear out his in box to receive it. Is there anyway of reducing the size of the file before sending it? I've googled this...

    Strange question but are the wings on all sports a different colour?

    noticed this when looking for my 172. On all the silver one's I looked at the front wings looked a slightly different colour......... ended up buying a black one, can't see any difference on that colour.
