Hi all, My Clio Cup has clearly been on the track in the past and it currently some DIY brake ducts in place of the fog lamps, but I'd like to put it back to standard. Can anyone explain in idiot-proof terms how I do this? The car came with what appeared to be the original fog lamp units in a...

Hi, I've got a PAS leak on my 172 Cup. I tried topping the fluid up this morning (which appears to have temporarily cured the problem) but I couldn't make out the liquid level on the reservoir at all. Are they actually supposed to be see-through so you can see the fluid level from outside...

My 172 Cup understeers really badly at the moment. I had a basic tracking adjustment done by a local garage, and if anything that made matters worse. The front tyres are fairly worn, but not to anything like the extent I would image you'd need to generate that much understeer. So, before I shell...

Are there any particular tyres people would recommend for daily use on a 172 Cup? I'm looking for some decent all-weather road tyres rather than anything too track-biased. It's running 195 45 R16s with I plan to stick with unless there's any compelling reason to change. Prices were a bit of a...

Can anyone recommend a good company to speak to for insurance quotes for a 172? Ive tried Adrian Flux and another one of the specialist brokers but they both came back quite expensive. Ironically, Tesco via Compare The Meerkat is actually the best one I've had so far. The car is a daily driver...

Anyone on here? Quite often see the car in the mornings. Today was the first time I passed it in my own Clio, though (blue 172 Cup).

I picked up my new toy at the weekend. It's a nice gleaming Clio 172 Cup: In general it's in pretty good nic, but there are a few issues. The clutch seemed a bit abrupt on the test drive, but (perhaps stupidly) I put that down to nerves. I'm now not so sure. It's lighter than I remember from...

I'm off to see a 172 Cup tomorrow. I've flicked through the various buyers guides and I think I've got a reasonable idea of what to look for, but just wondering if anyone had any further tips? Also, I wanted to see what people made of the price. The seller is asking £3k, which I'm aware is a...

I know the 172 vs 182 debate is a whole can of worms, but I was wondering if there is any appreciable difference in running costs? I'm looking to buy at the moment. Most of my commute is B-road and town driving, so I'm not hugely fussed about the extra motorway refinement of the 182 - if...

Hi, Recently I've been on the lookout for a 172 Cup, and scanning the various classifieds there seems to be a huge range in prices - anywhere from £1,100 to £3,000+ I realise, to a certain extent, you get what you pay for, but what would you say is the going rate for a smart but useable 172...

Hi, I'm new here, so I thought I should introduce myself.. I'm planning to get a Renaultsport Clio of some description for my next car - probably not for some time, but I thought I'd lurk for a while and try and get an idea of the pros and cons of all the various models. I know I'll be looking...
