    Returning to the RS brand

    Yeah I agree but the LED headlights are night and day (excuse the pun!) when driving at night

    Returning to the RS brand

    For me if it's to be used as a daily driver, facelift for LED headlights! From memory the 200 generally runs close to that power figure where the 220 never runs 220hp, so I don't think the difference is as big as it sounds on paper. My Mégane gt205 (same engine) doesn't feel any slower than my...

    clio MK 2 d4f 728/ 784 frankenstein

    Welcome to ClioSport - Cool project, more pictures and videos required!! Still running JB1 box? they look similar casing wise to a JC5 (172/182/dci 80)so maybe a JC5 diff would fit but im not sure. (starter motor is at the front on a JB1 and rear on a JC5) - A diesel JC5 box would have longer...

    Martin's 1.2 16v Dynamique Time Warp!

    Done the belts on this at the weekend as there was nothing in the history about it. Must have had a belt before now surely, cant be 25yr old and on its original belt.... or so i thought... I think that belt would have done another 25 years! Even the aux belt was like new... I...

    Android auto & bluetooth speaker.

    Renault offer a focal upgrade kit which they will supply or supply and fit with door speakers and a subwoofer. Last I seen it was extremely expensive and probably not amazing. But it's an option

    Clio mk2 1.4 16v or 1.6 16v

    Id avoid the auto ones, it's not the most reliable especially at 20yrs old+

    Coming soon Collecting Cars - 182 Cup 13000 miles

    Didn't realise the fees were that high, Jesus! Underside is pretty good on that, my benchmark has always been if the white sticker is still on the beam, the rest is good 😂

    Martin's 1.2 16v Extreme 4

    Was at the scrappy as there was a fairly late 1.2 16v Campus in, i actually went for the bonnet because mine is rotten on the underside, bonnet was good on the car in the scrappy in the pics but some genius had lifted it right up and back against the windscreen f**king it in the 2 days it had...

    Clio "Double Spoiler C2"

    my mate had a 1.2 16v when we were 17 that had all the dealer options on it which I remember at the time thinking was cool, This spoiler, the Sebring exhaust and the factory "lexus lights" to name a few

    Mystery of the acoustic valve

    From factory I believe the VVT is disabled from cold start, that's what Henk does with the RStuner, enables VVT from cold which I believe is why it makes them drive much better

    Max Power era bodykits/styling pieces?

    Poor lusty got hounded out of here 😂 His car actually looked like it was really well done too, some of his posts were questionable 😂

    HEL brake Lines Clio 172

    To be fair id imagine those do very very little (you can see theres no marks where its been flexing and moving) should be able to drill it out, clean up the threads and get a bolt from a scrappy, or just drill it out and nut and bolt it as you can get access to the other side easily.

    Help needed! All 4 engine mounts wanted ASAP

    Probably due to the extra weight on it from the mount above it being worn!

    Help needed! All 4 engine mounts wanted ASAP

    I've never seen the gearbox to subframe mount ever wear, it's literally just a big chunk of rubber, I wouldn't change it personally

    Martin's 1.2 16v Extreme 4

    @aldo_87 dropped off a set of fairly decent condition eibach sport lines he found in his garage, so swapped them on, took 20 mins to do all 4 springs which I was impressed by!!! Also fitted a set of genuine mud flaps I got from the scrappy

    Tyre recommendations – worth going premium?

    When I used to work at a garage our cost from supplier (Stapleton's) was always more than average Joe could buy them from camskill (including delivery!) and at the time we added £25 markup per tyre, with "free" fitting and balancing. So didn't matter if it was a £50 budget or a £350 super wide...
