    £30 fine for fog lights - f*ck off!!

    All car manufactures should make light switchs like VW so when you turn your lights off they turn the fogs off as well.

    Gutted

    Main problems were with the power steering and the dealer employing monkeys. Had 3 failures of the auto tensioner on the aux belt. 3 new belts and 2 pumps. Used to slip and make a hell of a noise when cold. Dealers had not got a clue. Paint was very poor with rust on the boot and rear bumper...

    Gutted

    I was at Star city a few weeks ago with the RSC Lee. Neil the seats only took an hour to fit myself and that includes the removal of the old seats Think i fitted them in Cuppys clio in less than half an hour. Then another 10-15 minutes to modify the seat looms so the serv and airbag lights...

    Gutted

    Not gutted mate. Best thing that happened to that car. Spent more time at the dealers than with me. Had it 6 months and the faults it had when i got it were still on it when it was smashed after many a trip to the dealers. Think it is being put back on the road by somebody in wolverhampton.

    Smashed the Cup

    George When my Cup was written off it was 6 months old. I had the replacement car if it was less than 12 months old. They paid me out at £12,300 as that was the price they could get a new one for but the delivery time was over 3 months and i could not be without a car for that long so they...

    alternatives to Clio CUP

    I went from a clio Cup to a Octavia vRS. Best thing i ever did Its slower off the mark but in gear its much quicker due to the turbo coming in at 2k. Only costs £450 to get it up to 230bhp. Standard 0-60 7.9 with 146 top end. Paid £13400 for mine...

    Lowering a 172/Cup

    Im not bothered about loosing the Cup. It was a good car but a little to fragile for my type of driving. I think my Cup loved the dealers as it always wanted to go back:cry: On to bigger and better things know. There is nothing more pleasing than a stealth kill of my new car.

    Lowering a 172/Cup

    Head on with a Nissan Primera. Dumb c**t was overtaking stationary traffic to get down a junction on his right but i got there first. Best thing for the car really. Was at Renault more than i had it. The car is know at Cliospares in Wolverhampton i think.

    Cup Issues

    My Cup had the same problem with the steering feeling loose. Mine was due to a problem with the PAS belt auto tensioner. They said it was loose and causing the belt to slip. Had it replaced and a new belt. Was fine for a while then the same again. Had my Cup for 6 months and it went in over 10...

    See you guy’s later

    I did look at the leon but the rate of finance and discount on the Skoda it works out nearly a grand cheaper. Jabbasport do a remap for 450 quid and most return around 230bhp. Trying to sort out some 20" wheels at the moment.
