Hi its Richard, Matt's dad. I've just changed the cambelt on our 1998 Clio 1.2 8v. While I was at it I took the head off to give it a quick check over and changed the headgasket. I've now put it back together and everything works apart from the car will not start. There is no power to the...

Another spout of bad luck on the Mk2 1.2 8v in the hands of my younger brother. After been crashed into by an old woman, knackering the front bumper, headlight and wing, then having the passenger door kicked in, the next part of the tale is now.... .....the bonnet flew open and has smashed...

I discovered this trick when I first started driving my Clio 1.2 8v which is now my brothers. Basically if you undo the airbox and take the airfilter out then drive round with em off it sounds fuckin awesome when you boot it. I thrashed mine for a year (20000 miles) with it like that all the...

I followed the Valver from Gommersal to the petrol station to get some money. Looked standard apart from 16s/17s and the exhaust. Williams had rusty arches. Think it was a 3. See ya Matt

Ive suddenly developed a vibration on the car. On the overrun, there is a heavy vibration coming through everywhere (steering wheel, pedals, dashboard) that sort of feels like a wheel out of balance but much heavier. It also happens in reverse when Im going up the drive, and sounds like the...

Right then, in the book the weight on my Valver is 980kg kerb weight, 1410kg gross weight. Can anybody tell me how these weights are measured, as I recently put my car on a mates weighbridge and it came out at 990kg, but the interior was stripped everything apart from the front seats and...

Having looked at the stats on the homepage saying that the 0-60 of both the Valvers and Williams is 7.7 seconds, has anybody ever had theirs measured (with a standard car). I ran a mailto:15.57@87">15.57@87 mph at the last meeting at York, which when put into a estimator puts the 0-60 at...
