The definition of a french car is that it'll take the piss out of you by falling apart and generally breaking, but as soon as you say the words, 'F**k this! I'm going German/Jap!', its fixes itself and charms the pants off of ya again! FACT!
I have clio addiction though :( Its my 3rd in a year. One wrecked :'(, one sold to be turned into a rally clio :), and my current one! Not a fan on the Fiesta, I don't really like any of the new hatchback shapes. Everything's getting too big and lumpy for my taste. Id rather have a Twingo!!
Thought you would like that! I'll try my best from now on to speak english.
I wish my company did company insurance, but unfortunately they say get a private car and we'll pay your petrol or we'll give you a 1.2 Clio Mk3/Fiesta/Corsa.
I made my decision. :D
Hahaha your accuracy is impressive.. the kid next to me in my office (on a gap year at the moment before i go to uni) is also 18 and drives a corsa sxi 1.2 and is insured for £2700!!! I'm insured on a 1.4 Clio Si for just under £800! Now that probably sounds like millions to you lot but...
I don't know if this has been asked before but I was just wondering how old people on here were when they first got their sports?

My mates 206 did this, he cleaned out the whole throttle body, then took out the ICV (idle control valve), cleaned the ICV with WD40 and the whole it sits into
He also found that the ICV is adjustable and should, at rest, not stick out more 1 1/8 inches, sorry it was American site. He found it...
