    Vibration at 50mph

    At first I thought I must have a flat. I was doing 50mph in 5th gear and there was a vibration coming thru the seat. The engine note seemed pure enough and I could not see or hear anything vibrating. However, I could feel a constant vibration in my legs and bum. What could it be? It wasn't the...

    What are symptoms of a failed alternator on a 172?

    As if I haven't had enough problems, now via battery won't hold any charge. Had the wife come out and jump me off last night and drove around for 15 miles. This morning, nothing - I even locked car without alarm last night to conserve battery. The wife is going to get it sorted this morning if...

    Deeply disappointed

    It seems that all Clios are garbage and it makes me wonder why they have such a big following. Every Clio (4 to date) I have owned has had major problems. My current one cranks but won't start and seems to be giving the garage a major dilemma. The wife's 1.2 eats fuel. My old Cup had 12...

    Fuel economy - or lack of

    My wife has an N-reg 1.2 8v Clio (Mk1 PH1) It seems to eat fuel. £45 quid's worth lasted 222miles, which can't be right as my old Beemer managed 380 miles off the same amount... and that had a 2.5litre engine. Any ideas?

    Horribly modded black Clio in Ferrybridge services, with a massive rear bumper, stickers all over it saying various tuning parts, and a spoiler like an ironing board, rear windows black as black can be, and fronts completely untinted... I trust it is no-one on here?

    Fuel consumption Mk1 1.2 - problem

    My wife's N-reg 1.2 is eating fuel. The odo said two hundred and something miles after using a full tank... eek! My 2.5litre BMW which is the same age, does far better than that! Any thoughts on what may be wrong with it?

    Modifications for 1996 Clio Mk1

    Hello, I have just bought Deb an 'N' plate 1.2 Clio. I threw away the nasty original wheels that were on it (14s) and rebooted it with 15" TSW Heats. I don't want to do any exhaust stuff as have just fitted new standard exhaust mid and rear. She doesn't want a big sound system or anything daft...

    Driving safety and performance cars

    As a car owners' club with the word "Sport" in the title we should be advocating safety, sensible driving and abiding by the law, however hard that is when you have a Clio Sport!!! I think that a debate on the topic would not go amiss, and if you lucky youngsters who have bought/been bought...
