    My Clio hates me and wants to kill me...

    4 niggles to report folks, all of which need attention! And advise from the ClioSport guru's: 1: Braking performance just doesn't seem right? If I brake hard, I feel the ABS kick in for a second or two then all of a sudden there's virtually no braking going on and I start to roll to a stop...
