    New and looking for a 172/182

    Ill bare that in mind thankyou! Any tips on what to look out for other than the typical wear parts? I vaguely know about the cambelts on these, I haven't seen much else in common issues?

    New and looking for a 172/182

    A very nice 182 dano, just a bit too much of a stretch I'm afraid! Good luck with the sale though :)

    New and looking for a 172/182

    Thanks guys, I'm sure there are plenty of tidy ones on here, would expect them to be better for a good price on a car forum I would think! Is it worth getting one with either of the Cup packages would you say?

    Only just seen this! Wanted to do it the colour of the car to blend in :) Shiny! Used the genuine paint again to get it a perfect match

    Cheers guys :) Not sure whether to spray the front Renault badge or not, not sure whether it would be too much?

    On nights unfortunately this week so with the lovely weather and being bored today I gave my car a good polish! Very rare it gets such good treatment.. After finding out recently that the 172 front bumper I was intending on getting isn't a straight swap.. I have decided I will colour code my...

    Anyone know where I can get matching paint to colour code? Would like the exact colour. If not what have people used? Just gloss black?

    Conor's 1.4 mk2 ph1 clio sport

    Yeah had a feeling they were, bugger! Can't be arsed to change the wings too. Might just colour code the front then

    Cheers :) Does anyone know if the ph1 172 front bumper is a straight swap or is it slightly wider?

    Conor's 1.4 mk2 ph1 clio sport

    Put the new side strips on today, couldn't be arsed to sort out the bullets though so for now it says 2.0 16v but will sort that soon Needs lowering soon for sure. I'm now desperately after a phase 1 172 front bumper! Never come about though especially in black. Would finish off the...

    Had some spare time today so thought I'd give the rear bumper a go! Straight swap I was told........ Straight swap my arse!! So many corroded screws, nuts and bolts! Too used to having a new bike to work on as opposed to an old car :lol: Had to drill most of the holes for the 172 bumper...

    Black Ph1 Project

    Ah nice an upgrade I am guessing?? Just recieved my bumper and it seems that none of the holes line up! A bit of modification may be required :lol:

    Unfortunately it's not the nut that is the issue! It's the hex on the end of the stud that is completely rounded :evil:

    Conor's 1.4 mk2 ph1 clio sport

    Haven't been on here for a while! Been busy over winter with the bike... In the mean time I have managed to get hold of some coilovers after finding that my car has the 58mm figment :) And have just also purchased a 172 rear bumper Should have the bumper on next week and the coilovers when...

    Was the 172 bumper a straight swap? Easy enough to fit?? :)
  21. midgey46

    Conor's 1.4 mk2 ph1 clio sport

    If it is indeed 54mm would it be okay to get some 58mm and just slot the holes a bit? Or is this not a good idea?

    Cheers ill ask, would go measure them myself however there is too much snow going on outside! Pain in the arse

    Conor's 1.4 mk2 ph1 clio sport

    Anybody got any clue on what size bolts space mine would have? As I'm looking at getting come Coilovers very soon!

    Conor's 1.4 mk2 ph1 clio sport

    Ah right cheers :) How much did you get your rear bumper or if you don't mind me asking?
  25. midgey46

    Conor's 1.4 mk2 ph1 clio sport

    Car looks nice mate, kinda the look I had in mind! Did you need to space out your rear wheels at all? Also do you know if the badges o the back are just glued on or are they secured with plugs into the boot? Cheers

    Got a pic of yours? :) Really needs lowering! Can't afford it though as new Tyres on my bike are going to be £280

    Conor's 1.4 mk2 ph1 clio sport

    Could use most, just not the indicator bulbs as they were slightly different, but £2.50 from halfords done the job! Although the bulbs did cost double the amount of the lights now I think of it lol
  28. midgey46

    Conor's 1.4 mk2 ph1 clio sport

    Yeah mega steal!! Only bid 1.99 last minute to see if anyone had bid much.. Turns out they only bid 99p! Got the pair without any bulbs though but all sorted both sides and they work a treat :)

    Diagnosis please?

    Hi all, I have a 2000 Clio 1.4S, I think my head gasket is pretty much buggered but I'm no expert so am hoping you guys can help? Issues are; -Sounds like a tractor -Loss of power -Juddering on idle -Rough acceleration -Coolant is going quickly and is leaving a gunky substance at the bottom...
