Cheers - thats the answer I was looking for.

Hi, Currently trying to sell my aftermarket 172 exhaust system (magnex backbox). Does anyone know if this will fit other models of clios (1.2, 1.4 etc) with no problems? I thought that the exhaust systems on non RS clios were different but now think I may be making it up? Cheers, Peter

Was also 2 cars in front of me coming out of Linlithgow yesterday at about 4pm ish.

I had 17's on my 172, went on no problem and didn't rub either. Funnily enough they are for sale too in the car parts for sale section

"Ah didnt see you mate or woulda waved ! what car where you in ? wasnt a blue mk1 172 was it ?" Nah - was in my Silver Mk2 172. Just spotted you as I headed out and "presumed" it was you from the sticker in the rear window.

Spotted you at Tescos in Corstorphine at 18.45 tonight.

Surfing the net today and came across advert for "Renault Clio 198bhp" (not sure where they get the extra 1bhp from) for £13,995 at Motor Depot. Is a bit better than list but still don't know if I would buy one especially as for £1 - £1.5 K more could get a Megane 225 or Import 06 Subaru...

R***ALY - spotted you going past the turnoff for Grangemouth on the M9 at about 8.10 this evening. I was going the opposite direction in the girlfriend's Puma.

Isn't me but saw this same car last week. Was behind me going in to Linlithgow trying to dodge the roadworks on the M9.

Yep - car was a euro import direct from France. Didn't need to apply for the full warranty Rich_16v as when I went to register the car with Renault UK it was warrantied until December 2006 (3 years after its manufactured date) - bonus!

Thinking of selling my Clio 172 but am not sure what its worth. Spec is:- 2004, 53 Plate Iceberg 172. Import from Barkers of Preston so am the 1st Owner. Toad ai606 Alarm/Immobiliser. 31K with Full Renault Service History and 4 New Toyo Proxy T1-Rs. Small stone chip on bonnet and slight...

My 53 plate 172 has it. To be honest, unless I am am doing a long motorway journey I hardly ever use it.

Not me but have seen this about Stirling a few times. Think it stays in BofA

Cheers for the advice guys. Unfortunately I am a total novice when it comes to doing this - what grade of sandpaper should I be using (presume that 2000 or 1500 grit aint coarse enough)?

Is on my second car - someone has tried to spray a bit of the car and it is not a good colour match. Basically want to remove the cr*ppy paint and try re-doing it myself.

Can anyone recommend a decent make of T-cut? I have some dodgy paint I want to remove and my Auto Glym paint renovator aint up to the job!

Must have been in Reg Vardy's - just up from my work.

Passed you tonight on the M9 just south of Stirling at 18.50. Reg was something like W703*** - not sure if it is someone on here?

Parked in the compound at the back of Arnold Clark, Stirling. Somebody must be getting a nice present in the New Year....

Passed you on the M9 just after the turn off for Linlithgow. Must have been taking it easy as I managed to pass you in my 13yr old Saab 900.......

55 plate at about 5.30pm today. Surprised I saw you as it was p1ssing down.

Doh - should have said, they are Matrix Energys.

OK - so I finally decided to go up to the olds recently to check on my 17" wheels that have been stored in their garage (for about 10 months). The wheels had been hiding up there because I had taken them off the clio when I got a puncture and due to moving house never done anything with them...

nah mate - was up there on a "romantic" weekend with the missus.

Spotted yesterday when I was in the park with the missus. You were about 3 cars behind me driving through the "wild" animal enclosure. Was lowered with 17"s and a cliosport sticker in the side window.

Spotted about 45mins ago at the Esso garage at the Craigs roundabout (were parked next to me as I finished filling up).

Passed you on the M9 at Newbridge coming in to Edinburgh on wednesday (20/9) - reg M16 ***.

No lexus lights on it ......cliosport sticker at top of rear window

Wasnt me mate as I have a silver 172. Did you see the 182 in Morrisons as I hadnt seen one in that colour before?

I agree. Done the same myself as was doing about 20K a year in my 172. Bought a cheap BMW 318i Touring (E30) which I use to go to and from work. As I reduced the mileage on the insurance policy on the 172 to 10K, I have both cars insured for the same as it cost for the 172 by itself last year.
