Hi welcome to the site, where abouts are you from?

Tips if your new to the Clio umm, your lights should sense when its dark and come on automatically, also your doors an boot should lock once you go over 5mph, if it aint doing this let us know because the old owner could have turned them off and if you want em on we'll tell ya :rasp:

Yea I know my old dynamique had it too, its called renault anti intruder device (RAID) Mine is disabled right now because of a alarm I have had fitted does it and they would just compete with each other.

Other things umm... the first position on the wiper stalk should put it into auto wipe mode, an will increase depending on speed you going/rain speed, all these 3 things are something you either love or hate. One more nifty thing is, if you have a trip computer, hold the trip button in on the end of the wiper stalk and turn you key into the on position and you will see a lil show :) (think this does something for when you diagnose the logs/clear the logs)

hmm, well anything you can tell me that is of use really! Like i said, have never owned a clio before, so is all new territory, and the one i'm getting is absolutely mint, and would like to keep it that way. So anything you can tell me about upkeep and looking after it would be great! Apart from the obvious not ragging it of course! Haha

Great I'll look out for you, you getting a sticker now your a member? Is that your car on the avatar?
Only thing I can say about looking after the car is, you should really run it on the higher ron fuel (BP ultimate/Shell V-power) You get more from a tank and it supose to be designed for that fuel, I never put 95 Ron in so cant comment if it really does run sluggish like some people say.

my last car was a peugeut 206 and the clio top trumps it by far!!!

Hi ya, welcome aboard, I'm in the process of getting a 172 at the moment. I spoke to Bex and GDI for advice when looking, they were very clued up and helped loads, I'm sure they'd be good people to talk to!

Just hold the lock button down (its near the hazzard switch) for around 5 secs, you should hear it beep to tell you its been enabled/disabled.
