so it can be done then id rather not cut up the car as im not planning on having it much longer! do you hav to be careful with it sitting below the bumper, i tend to fly over speed bumps and stuff so am i likely to loose the exhaust if i do that??!!
i hope i dont sound stupid now! i want to change the standard exhaust on my 51 plate clio 1.2 16v for something a bit bigger and louder but wen i looked i realised the bumper is in front of the exhaust pipe. is there any way to fit a new one without cutting the bumper? ne help is appreciated!!!!
yeah thats what im worried about, i spend enough time in the petrol station now with a 1.2 so if i get a 182 i might as well move in! sumthing has to be done though this car is driving me nuts now! i would b lookin at gettin as new a car as i can wen did the 182's come out?
im starting to think its the 51 plates you no i spoke to someone at the weekend who has a 51 plate, he's experienced almost exactly the same problems as i have, mite have to trade it in for something newer i reacon!
i do try and drive it carefully, i dont sit on the clutch coz i cant afford a new one i need it to last! i admit that i hav been known to rag the engine occasionally but not vey often as its only a crappy 1.2 i aint gonna beat anyone neway so whats the point!!
well i bought mine on 35000 and stuff started going wrong straight away. can i just ask how the hell is your 51 plate only on 18000 and my 51 plate is on 51000, do you ever drive it?!?!
yeah iv just learned to live with it!! i hav noticed that everything rattles though, all the windows and the door panels its not very well put together!
do they not, thatd b good iv had so much trouble with my sun roof, its leaked god knows how many times and it rattles like nethin, it drives me crazy!!
mayb iv jus had bad luck with this one then. the only thing that worries me about gettin a 182 is stuff is much more expensiv to replace than on my little 1.2 so if things go wrong im screwed!!
im begining to think that clios are all jus crap!! all my electrics, the lights, the windows, the mirrors they all randomly stop working for no reason its great my windows get stuck down all the time! iv also had a oil leak that was supposedly fixed but im still using oil like theres no tomorow...
not sure if this is the rite place to post this so sry if its wrong!
i drive a 51 plate renault clio that seems to be rapidly fallin apart, its on 50 000 miles (yeah i no thats high for a 51 plate!!) and so far iv got a clutch on the way out, a knackered starter motor and iv had to practicly...
i think to be honest a cup would b wasted on me i wouldnt really appreciate it! plus me and a car with no ABS probly shouldntr evr b put together, and i do like my comforts in a car. plus i can get a 172 in black which is the colour i really want.
iv jus got back from lookin at a 172 cup. i like it but i am unsure on a few things so i was hopin someone could help me!
is there any difference in the engine peformance between the cup and the standard 172, also is there any difference in insurance? i cant decide which to get!!
where from??!!!! im 20 and iv got 1 yrs no claims. i live in a very high risk area which screws me over majorly!! i also made a claim 1 month ago wen my car was nearly written off.
yeah but i cant actually get an insurance quote on a 182!! iv only managed to find 2 places that would insure me on a 172 and they are so expensiv!! gta b done tho i cant take the 1.2 any longer!!!
i think on sum cars they can look really bad but on clios they look ok as long as they arent over the top, mines black wiv clio written in silver so it matches my car and wheels, how co ordinated am i?!
