    Virgin existing customer deals?

    Got a retention phone call yesterday, offered me £23 instead of £47 first time for my M100 - nice to see they can be sensible.

    Virgin existing customer deals?

    Phoned them up just now - on M100 and been paying £47 for ages (laziness) Best they would do was £29 with the "agents personal discount code" - but inspired by the above I want at least half, so its cancelled. See if I get a call! They also tried a scare tactic regarding other suppliers not...

    Seanybaby's Clio 182 Road/track car

    I'd also be interested to know how it affects daily driving vibrations wise. I've got a cup, and i'm hesitant to upgrade as im not sure how shaky it will get when on the road. As for the PMS. I love mine. @bloke is correct, its so precise with the feel of the gear changes.

    Clio 172 cup or 182...will it work?

    +1 on the cup, I drive one as a daily too. Never get tired of driving it, great fun to sling round the back roads to work! If you're after a 'precision rifle' gear change, I can recommend the PMS Precision Linkage set, its transformed the feel of mine - love it

    Who's got a short shifter? Hard to fit?

    I recently got the Pure Motorsports shifter, its epically good! Not to difficult to fit, even though I had a mate who had fitted his before help - 2 people would be best for fitting.

    Dogbone fitting argh!!

    Haha! It was so frustrating until I sat there and realised what was happening. I would also recommend torqueing the bolts after as well for extra peace of mind. Good luck!

    Dogbone fitting argh!!

    I had this same problem when I did mine mate. I found the trick was to undo the gearbox bolt first, then the larger chassis one. If you do the gearbox bolt last, the engine mounts flex and you don't get any torque on the bolt. :)

    OBD Switched live

    Just picked up an obd for my 172. Was planning to install it permanently, but it looks like there is no switched live to the obd port as it remains on when them key is out of the ignition. Does anyone know of a way to change this power feed to a switched live without doing any damage...

    Quieter exhaust

    +1 for the Scorpion. Fitted one with a mate to my 172 cup and couldn't be happier. Nice and quiet, but loud where it counts

    172 - Dashcam wiring

    Thanks Thomas - looks like a plan Is the wiring for the cig lighter in the footwell, or would I have to follow it all the way back to the back of the lighter its self?

    172 - Dashcam wiring

    Hi All, Currently got a Mio 388 Dashcam which I have plugged into the cigarette socket for power. As you can imagine, this is a bit messy and means the cigarette socket cant be used for anything else. I was planning to wire this directly into a switched live wire inside the interior light...

    New 172 owner

    +1 for using the green slip. Previous owner nicked the tax out of my car when he sold it to the dealer. Strangely enough it's still showing as taxed so he hasn't refunded it yet. Been waiting for the v5 for 2 weeks now, they take ages but I can't get a duplicate disc without it.

    Finally sorted

    lol true, luckily its just a figure of speech ;) The mileage is fantastic, I just need to be careful not to let the servicing/car slip considering its been so well looked after

    Finally sorted

    Haha, yeah some might say ive gone backwards rather than forwards. I will miss the e36 clutch I think, it was way more forgiving than the 172

    Finally sorted

    Hi, Finally the owner of a fantastic blue 172 cup. I was interested to see if it was owned by a previous member of the forum? Its a bit unique in the fact that it has only ever been owned by one person for 9 years, has a full Renault SH and has only done 40k! Picked it up in Milton Keynes which...

    182 Limp Mode

    Lovely idea mate, however there is nothing decent that is within a 40 mile radius. Everything that comes up in my area sells before I can even get a viewing.

    182 Limp Mode

    Thanks Steve he has replaced the throttle pedal with a black plastic one when he got the car, so that's what I suspect it could be that as it ties in with the two lights. He said he is going to try another pedal in there to see whether that helps. It is intermittent when driving as although the...

    182 Limp Mode

    Hi, Did post this in the welcome forum but thought it chuck it in here too. I have found a nice 182 for sale this weekend just gone, however on the verge of buying it today found that there was a major problem with the car. On the test drive I drove the car and found that it was low on power...

    Future owner

    Hi, Thought I would introduce myself. I'm currently looking for a Clio 182 in the Surrey area - proving to be harder than I thought as they are almost as rare as hen's teeth! I have always loved the Renault sport range, especially the Clio Williams that I always coveted when I was younger. Now...
