And the Trophy is a bit scary on the bypass in those conditions isn't it!! More than any other car I've driven anyway. Mildly unstable..

It's a somewhat modern phenomenon, but it's been going on longer than I thought, especially reading on here how often some people change! Ah, the power of loans, HP and PCPs! I'll doubt I'll never not be paying a monthly amount towards a car, at this rate anyway. Now I think I'm quite bad...

Saw each other driving through the village

About half 5 today, very shiny. You were giving it some coming off the roudabout past Maccy D's going towards the city. I.K. sounded awesome m8.

Well, only 2 Trophys and one was mine. :D We convoyed down the A6 towards Leicester for a while then you turned into B&Q. Think I've seen you before around Mountsorrel - are you on Cliosport? A silver 182 with Cup packs was with us for a while on the bypass too. :)

Few questions: Do the relays still click when using the wipers/windows or have Renault finally gone into the 21st century? Does the engine still idle lumpily? Just wondering while bored at work...

Think this is repairable? Noticed it looked a little flat today, then noticed the big screw. Checked after work to find it at 4psi :D How much are Exalto's?

This started as a mild squeak coming from somewhere behind the front dash when pulling off. I'd get this when the clutch bit, more so in the cold. Now it's just constant, but it may be a compleely seperate problem. Something either behind the dash or in the engine bay squeaks over bumps and...

On the A6 from Redhill Roundabout to Greens. White wheels, various stickers, big exhaust. I didn't acknowledge you (it was early sorry!) but I did see you - hello! Apologies for my filthy car.

First one I've seen on the road other than mine. Lady driving it, going the opposite way. My frantic wave was met with a confused look. :) Incidentally - has anyone else in Leicester seen the 05 Trophy for sale at the Lotus garage? 11 grand - wonder if it's a press car.

Parked on Nelson St this morning - anyone here? Actually a Continental GT came and parked next to you later on...still preferred the Vee ;)

Hi guys, There seem to be so many types out there, with varying specs and prices. Anyone have and recommendations? Cheers.

I'm not sure whether it got stuck under the carpet mat slightly or what, but there was a bit of clear air in front and I was in second so I obliged by flooring it. You know how there's a 'click' when you put it to the floor? It did that then went to change gear and it stuck. Didn't know what the...

Anyone got a pic? I remember seeing one a few months ago but can't find it. Cheers if you can help.

If ever I'm maneuvering to park or something that involved turning the wheel alot at low speeds, for some reason the air con turns on. Eh???

After the cars started, on pulling off there is a medium-loud clang from the front and I can actually feel this happen through the clutch pedal. After then, its fine. Only happens once after every startup. Any ideas mechanics?

Any tips on how to cure it?

I want to clean inside the car this week I think, but really want to avoid having a shiny plastic interior when Im done. Can anyone recommend a dash cleaner thatll leave a MATT finish? Also if you want to give me any other dos/donts on cleaning inside. Cheers all.

Hmm, fonts are all messed up Ill post this when I get home (and in the right forum!) I fancy cleaning inside the car this week - anyone know of an interior (dash, etc) cleaner that will leave a MATT finish. I really want to avoid shiny plastic interior syndrome. Feel free to...

Only had the Clio 5 months and one of the reverse lights has gone - free bulb or not? LOL! :)

Whats the interior like (opinions)? And how does all the plastic cope with the fairly harsh ride? Is it rattle-mania? Not that it matters, but like I said, odd question.

Probably posted here a million times, but yes this plate is still on the market! Bit pricey... http://www.regtransfers.co.uk/includes/viewplate.asp?regno=C172%20CUP&regprice=3995&index=0http://www.regtransfers.co.uk/includes/viewplate.asp?regno=C172%20CUP&regprice=3995&index=0 Might have to...

Thought maybe some things could be cleared up here and now... First. When I first got the Clio last year (after driving an R reg Fiesta for 2 years), obviously it felt and sounded different. But it did strike me that I could hear the engine sound quite prominently coming from the front...

Obviously its limited to a certain about every 4 months or so, but how long do we reckon itll stay in production, what with supposedly the new Clio out late 2005?

I ask this because I went out today (was about 3 degrees), started the car and the engine spluttered between 500 and 1000 rpm for 30 seconds until I revved her a bit (seemed like the auto-choke didnt kick in). Was fine after, but its a brand new car, full tank of Optimax, all fluids nominal...

My 53 1.6 has climate control. When the A/C is flicked to on you get a tell tale squeeling (not too loud) of a belt slip. Happens only at high revs after medium acceleration and it can be stopped by putting the clutch in and then letting it out again. I think this is weird, does anyone else?

Got your Accident Management Pack in the post yet? You get a torch, camera, yellow crayon all in a nice folder pack. Fair enough I guess! Renault make me grin widely sometimes. :)

Does anyone know which of the modern clio engines (if any) has a knock sensor for determining which RON fuel is being used?
