Unfortunately the car is that troublesome that I fear the come back I might get if I sold it privately, Id probably wake-up to find my 182 in a smoldering heap.

All three dealers in a 25 mile radius are owned by T.G.Holdcroft, going to have to find out where the next nearest dealership is.

No, but I would fell better if they offered me £7850 for mine against £13375 for the 182 :D, highly unlikely though Im sure.

Seriously considering getting rid of the 172 as its caused me more hassle than its worth, on the bright side Im considering giving Renault the benefit of the doubt and buying a 182. Reanult Crewe have offered me a 182 with Met. Paint, Cup Suspension Pack and Cup Spoiler Pack for £13,375 not a...

I have to say in the Clios defence that my dads 172 has done 12.5k miles with no problems.

£986 Fully Comp. with Adrian Flux but I am 22 with 4 years ncb and 3 points. If youre after instant online quotes go to http://www.thisismoney.co.ukwww.thisismoney.co.uk and have a look at their insurance section, you can get over 50 companies quotes instantly. Personally Id call the companies...

Still waiting for the knocking noise to be sorted out on my 172 and surprise, surprise something else is wrong with the piece of sh1t, the throttle potentiometer is now faulty which basically means that the bloody thing wont rev over 2500rpm................anyone else got a Clio from hell:(

This certainly isnt the first problem with it, Id estimate its been in the Renault dealership 25 days in total due to warranty work. Im sick of the bloody thing.

Took my 172 in for a 24k service the other day, went to collect it and was told the off-side front top mount had some play in it and needed replacing, after a short disagreement they agreed to do the work under warranty even though the car is lowered and I was a happy man. Dropped the car off a...

Is it just my motor or has anyone elses mpg dropped since the weather turned cold, Im getting about 60-70 miles less from a tank full of Optimax. Not good when you travel 100 miles a day to work, Im worried I might have to start biking there:(

£128 @ Renault Crewe. £220 four four Toyo Proxes T1-s all in from Selecta Tyre. I think that service included front pads and wiper blades all round.

Had all my wheels refurbed and painted before I picked up the car, the Reanult garage arranged it with a company called Pro-Tech (07967483669) cost £197.50 all in, may be worth giving them a call as theyre mobile and do them in a day. Not sure if theyre nationwide but they may be able to...

Front end looks smart, cant see tha back that well. How much and how difficult if you dont mind me asking.

Nice mate but what does all that weigh?

Has anyone tried fitting one of the splitters off the lower spec. Clios to a 172 , is it possible? if so how does it look? any pics?

This guys good, took dents out three panels for me this morning cost me £30 and theyre completely gone....well chuffed:D

Surprise, surprise, turned up at Renault on Friday morning to find that they werent changing the windscreen nor were they changing the window seals, but actually glueing them in place this time........useless f*#kers:(

Fuel, pluh or anything else wont help solve it........just use full throttle when you leave your rd, only up to about 3500rpm, itll warm up faster and before anybody says it, its not bad for the engine no. As I said using Otimax or super unleaded doesnt completely cure the problem but it...

From my experience lower octane fuels give you a lumpy start-up, try Shell Optimax or super unleaded, this should smooth things out, it wont completely get rid of the problem but it definitely improves the overall running of the car.

Had a call from the Renault dealership this morning regarding my window seal, turns out their going to replace the windscreen and all the seals:D, even asked what colour tint I wanted, theres blue or green apparently:confused:. Gotta hand it to Renault, this time they done themselves proud.

Anyone know if you can buy the sticker for the sill protectors on the 172, Renault want £65 for the whole thing per side, they dont sell the sticker seperately. Perhaps there would be a market for some Cliosport inserts, anyone agree.

Not really into bodykits and all that, but this doesnt look to bad. Grille looks better than some Ive seen. More pics on their site : http://www.nsd-online.comwww.nsd-online.com http://www.nsd-online.com/images/products/183/NSD29-1400A.jpg

Mongoose also do a twin 3.5" its the same sound as the magnex because it basically is a magnex that has been built up at a place called Collins Performance Engineering in Congleton, there would be no advantage to the mongoose over the magnex other than youd be a bit different from the rest of...

Took my car down to the Renault garage in Crewe this morning for their fifth attempt at fitting my windscreen seal properly, turns out this time they wanted me to pay £105 to fix the fault that has been with the car since I had it and which they have attempted to fix four times previously under...
