    MCN Article

    Did anyone see this week's article in MCN? Clio 172 vs RS4 125. Not a great write up of the Clio (although it did beat the bike to 60) as it was referred to as a chavmobile throughout. I'll upload it later if I get the scanner working.

    MK1 springs on a 1*2

    Does anyone know if aftermarket (PI) MK1 springs will fit a 1*2? I'm guessing not but wanted to check first. Thanks.

    Forza 4 wheel

    Been playing GT5 for a long time now but finally got Forza after seeing the graphics. Anyone able to recommend a steering wheel? I've been a big fan of the logitech GT wheel for PS3 but not sure of the equivalent for xbox.

    Nice looking Iceberg ph1 outside the PO in Baughurst/Tadley this afternoon. Y*** KUP. Looked fairly clean and standard, although I might have spotted a rear ARB?

    Semi-skimmed Ride Height Front/Back

    This has been bugging me for a bit so decided to post... The arch gap front and rear seem massively different to one another. AFAIK the springs are all original and the car's just had an MOT and 36k service which didn't spot any broken bits. Is this normal for a 182 without cup packs? Thinking...

    Trophy, IDR Reading

    Was heading south out of Reading on the IDR this afternoon, following a convoy of hairdressers d*cking about in convertible Mercs. Was just thinking how massively cool they were when I saw a Trophy heading past on the opposite carriageway. Much better :)

    Swedish Sleeper

    Surpisingly nice looking volvo with a Williams conversion. Not sure if the heavier chassis would undermine the new engine though? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/volvo-340-2-0-16v-williams-/170817410535?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item27c582d5e7

    Rear seats, rattling

    Appreciate Renault have their share of rattles (mine has plenty) but recently the rear seats have started rattling badly. The uprights clip in at the top OK but they aren't held back tightly enough somehow. Anyone had this or come up with a fix?

    Continental Tyre

    Looking for new fronts and came across this. Am I missing something, or does it seem a bit... pricey?? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CONTINENTAL-205-45-R16-SPORT-CONTACT-2-/230753136191?pt=UK_Cars_Tyres_RL&hash=item35b9f56e3f

    Wheel speed difference & ABS sensor

    quick question... i'm planning to get a steel spare for the 182. the wheel i've found has a slightly different rolling diameter so it will turn 1.1% faster than standard. is this difference big enough to throw up an ABS error? also, is a 15" 2002 clio wheel likelt to have the same bolt pattern...

    RB 1*2, Brimpton Hill (West Berks)

    Clio RS (182) Press Release

    Driving Hard When It's Cold Outside?

    I'm generally a bit of a granddad driver, especially on the pot-holed roads around here. On the way home tonight there was no traffic at all and I just thought I'd remind myself how much I like the Clio - nothing silly, just booted it a bit. When I looked in the rear view mirror there was a LOT...

    Clio 182 - Totally Standard (For Now?)

    Just washed my Clio for the first time and grabbed a quick pic on my phone. Got me thinking... my car is 100% standard and I'm not too bothered about modifying it. Am I alone? Anyone else feel the same or is that a little boring?? Sorry for the picture quality - wet hands and a cheap camera...

    Lambda sensor causing fault or just a symptom?!

    Plenty of threads kicking about on this topic but none seem to have the same set of symptoms as my '04 182: Engine light is on (solid, not flickering) Car starts perfect, first time, every time Idle a bit lumpy but perhaps not unusal for these cars If driving from cold, within a few hundred...

    My Experience: Clio 182 vs ST170

    Hi all, still quite new to Clio ownership (having sold my ST170) and to this forum, but thought I'd share my epxerience of owning both. I know there are loads of discussions about this all over the web but most seem to be based on manufacturer spec instead of owner experience. Both cars are/were...
