1*2 pet hates



  Clio Sport
Every time I attempted to do anything it takes hours or something snaps off...
I'll just take the rear arch lining off..bolt snaps
I'll just replace the headlight washer for the mot...5 hours later still at it..
I'll just change the sparks plugs surely it's a 10 minute job.
I'll just change the pollen filter...I won't be changing that again in a hurry.

Oil leaks, seating position and rattling trim in the cabin. In fairness, less rattled before i fitted poly engine mounts.

I was more meaning things people do to them but the above are all true.

One other thing- canards and big silly wings

Steering wheel and seat height as already stated. When I jump in my impreza after it feels like I’m 9 & I’ve stolen my dads car.

How tight the aux belt is to the body.

I've always stuck drinks in the rear cupholders, they're good and hardly far away in such a small car

Wait, there’s rear cup holders?

The front ones are hilarious. I tried to put a drink from kfc in there once (just to show my son how stupid they are otherwise wouldn’t have attempted) and popped the lid off angling it in there launching pepsi everywhere.

A Nissan Cube has 6 cup holders just in the front. It only seats 5. 🤷🏼‍♂️
My two seat caddy has 4 cup holders, two of which are set back behind the front seats. I presume they are for crewcab versions

What issues did you get with pollen filter? I have one to swap on mine

Towing eye straps on non track cars and brightly colours painted brake callipers for me.
If we are talking quirks with the little shot boxes! Then the sills and rust traps. Just badly thought out by Renault.

edit: to be fair to them, the cars are knocking on a bit now. So they have lasted well, hardly surprising they need work.

They still didn’t stoop to ‘rear wiper delete’ levels of low.
Tell me about it.
One of the previous owners of my 182 did a rear wiper delete. To be fair, it’s a tidy job, but it’s awful in anything other than dry weather.
If it was a daily, I’d be putting the rear wiper back on ASAP.


On that note, Kill All Wiper sticker are hideous.
