You mean your cruise control won't set higher than 123mph , or you've set it at 123mph and its doing 80 mph ??

Cheers Rory , nice work mate :) Who's gonna be the first to get their mats ;)

I have silvervisions , a slight orange tinge but its somethin' and fcuk all really . Offset pins ya need , front and rear are the same . Got mine from http://www.powerbulbs.co.uk/ they're a bit of a fiddly b*stard to fit if you have big hands ,lol . Plus you get free philips blue vision...

A really good job that mate , fantastic finish , all that hard work and waiting for the crappy English weather , lol , paid off ! Well done :)

MWSnap 300 is good for capturing images . PM me and i'll e mail it to you if you want . Its only 643kb .

Cheers ! Good luck with your project :)

Its alot easier than you think . One of the main things is to keep the wheel clean after each sanding , wash and dry it well before applying more primer / top coat . You don't need to sand the top coat . But if the lacquer is a little rough you can sand it with very fine wet n dry , 2000...

It probably cost me about £25 - £30 , can't remember exactly now . You'll have loads of filler left even from a small tin , so plenty left for future refurbs .

They mix the paint there for ya , in the shop .

Upol D Metallic filler . Halfords sell it in smaller tins , about £5.00 . I used 320 grit , then primed it , sanded it , primed it until i was happy then about 3 or 4 coats of colour until it looked good , then 2 - 3 coats of lacquer . Your better off getting your paint in rattle cans...

I used the Upol D Metallic filler . Halfords sell it . http://www.paints4u.com/productsbyCat.aspx?MainCategoryID=9&MainSelection=2&SubCategoryID=10&Subselection=4 Fill ,sand it down with wet n dry , prime sand down with fine wet n dry 1500 - 2000 grit .Top coat and lacquer .

5th Gear tonight . Some guy who charges about £5000 to wash n wax your car . Apparently he owns the only 2 tubes of Zymol palm tree wax in the UK . About £7000 a tube . He takes 2 weeks to do 1 car :eek:

^^^^ He must know his Renaults then , lol ;) Would be good to do a survey , who's got the oldest standard Ren exhaust !

The gold look good , the white look better though . Do it mate !

Just goes to show . Don't believe everything you hear . I would declare it also for the sake of £20 and peace of mind .

The would imagine the speedo is calibrated for the 182 tyre size : If you go from the standard 195 / 45 / 16 on a 172 to 205 / 45 /16 your speedo will read over . At 70mph you'll actually be going 71.08 mph If you go to a 205 / 40 / 16 your speedo will read under and at 70mph you'll be...

172 and 182 , both only me .

1500 grit will do if you can't find any 2000 grit . Don't apply much pressure , let the wet n dry do the work , use soapy water with the wet n dry . Then use Megs scratch X . Your better off applying the paint in small blobs with a cocktail stick and build it up slowly , let the first coat...

If its fcuked get a new , only a few quid on ebay . http://search.ebay.co.uk/search/search.dll?from=R40&satitle=CLIO+SPORT+BADGES

I thought they only did cups in racing blue , not full fats with cup packs ? Correct me if i'm wrong somebody !

This is the one i have . Pictbridge , prints top quality A4 borderless , 5 colours and black separate cartridges , about £6 for compatibles . Prints direct to cd/dvd's with printable discs . Never had a problem with Epsons , had a few now ...

Love the wheels , i'm not normally a fan of colour coded calipers , i would normally say black or silver , but i think the yellow calipers look good with the acid yellow , absolutely love that Vee mate ;)

Fuel filters in the tank . Its supposed be good for 145,000 miles according to Renault , yeah right ;)

Try www.yell.com mate for a local paint / carbody supplier . Give em your paint code and they should be able to mix you some rattle cans up .

Adrian Flux for me £470 fully comp , better off ringing as i find the internet quotes are more than over the phone .Or i've used Ashbourne insurance before . http://www.adrianflux.co.uk/ http://www.ashbourneinsurance.co.uk/ This one gets quotes from lots of insurers ...

I have an Epson R300 , 6 colours , top quality photos even on borderless A4 , prints dvd / cd's , i must have printed well over 2000 dvd's and never had one problem . Compatible cartridges are about £6 for 6 . Its now an older model but there is a new model R220 ...

I just phoned the local stealers , said i wanted J41 Arctic blue touch up paint , and they ordered it , got it a week later . Its like some of the dealerships can't be arsed ordering stuff . It all comes from the same place , no wonder they get slagged off .
