Earth is fine, checked it already! My stepdad said he did that already earlier but still nothing. He says he reckons it's a faulty solenoid? Guess the whole starter motor unit needs a refurb!

Hi guys, Just encountered a problem with my MK1. 2 days ago it was running fine but when I went to start it today, it wasn't turning over. I've charged the battery up and checked the terminals etc. but still no luck. You can hear the solenoid click but the starter motor doesn't turn. Bypassed...

Check http://www.gsmarena.com/ for specs of phones, you can compare the two as well. I'm stuck on whether to get the Galaxy Ace or Desire S :dapprove:! Has anybody ever used cashback websites like Buymobilephones.net and Affordablemobiles before?

Replaced the spark plugs and all seems to be okay!

No space in back for 5.25" speakers :( gonna have to get 6x9s

Sounds like a good idea actually! I think the only reason I wanted 6x9s is because I didn't think I could fit speakers in the front door cards so needed some loud enough to hear clear in the front :) The idea of putting coaxials in the rear door cards is pretty good! Still not sure where I can...

It still does it when I put more power on, guess I'll have to try putting more power next time! Any other suggestions, that does seem the most likely but I want to rule out other possibilities :)

Hi, I've noticed a problem recently and it's accentuated by the amount of people in my car. When I pull away when it's only me in my car it's fine but if there's a few people, the car seems to shudder and not pull off smoothly if you know what I mean? I had a full car the other day and it...

The thing is though, 6x9s are way louder compared to 5.25" speakers and that's something I'm aiming for. I'm tempted to invest in some 6x9s and a set of front speakers as well, but it's my first car so I don't really see the point in spending a lot of money on something I'm only really going to...

Yeah but won't the magnets stick out too far?

There's no space for doors really :( Normally there's a bit that sticks out on the door card to allow the magnet to fit behind but in the MK1 there isn't one, it's just a flat surface. Was thinking about either finding some different door cards or just getting some new 5 1/2 " fronts instead.

Anyone?

Hi, I've just passed my test today and so want some speakers for it. I was thinking 6 x 9s but everyone seems to be against them, I'm open to other options. However, there are no speakers in the front door as standard but there are 5 1/2 inch speakers in the front as you may know already...

Love the car but don't like the orange caps at all man, sorta ruins it for me!

Hi, I've noticed that whilst driving my car seems to shake when it gets to a certain speed/gear. I'll be going along and i'll change to fourth at 40 mph (which IMO is a reasonable speed to be in 4th) and the gearstick with shake and that'll cause a small rattling sound too. I have no idea...

Apparently there's a place in Midsomer Norton that does full for 60 but I'm not sure how good they are!

Warminster here pretty close :) Welcome!

Re: Mk1 F4R/172'd Track Car Project +1

Ahh my brother works in Morrisons in Warminster and I've just applied because Argos is rubbish haha :rasp:! And thanks mate, I'll definitely attend the meets!

Definitely will man! I drive a Mk1, haven't passed my test yet though so you'll only see me in the evenings out driving with my mum :rasp: Where abouts in Wiltshire are you?

Ahh no, it looked good with the white wheels on!

Swear I saw this one go through Warminster today? Not too sure if it was that exact one though!

Hi, Thinking about taking my rear RENAULT badge off, spraying it a different colour and reapplying it. What would be the best way to reapply it and what would I need to do so? Thanks

Saw a black 172/182 with white rims, not too sure which of those it was only caught a glimpse of the rear end where it had a huge Cliosport.net on the top of the back window. Must be someone here!

Why not just do it yourself? Cheaper option!

Woah, that's so nice. Looks so sleek and professional!

Like that, nice detail!

17 Mk1 Ph3 :)

Lush! Good intro music too ;)

Where can I pick one up from :rasp:?
