I've had a Porter Cable polisher for about 5 years now and used it only twice in that time. 2 reasons, 1, I've gotten lazier over the years and 2, the fact that I have to get the transformer out etc, but I want to start making more of an effort again.
I'm not a detailer like some of you lot so...
I am selling my partners big spec 197 as I've just bought a mk2 Mazda MPS which she'll have in the spring when I get a new car but have also been offered an MX5 Sport Tech CC at a really good price (too good to turn down) which I'm picking up next week for her. Anyway I was thinking of getting a...

Recently acquired 182 but change of mind to another Clio V6 255 instead.
Details are:
Renaultsport Clio 182 full fat version with option cup pack in metallic Arctic Blue.
2005 05 plate (registered 24th June 2005) and only 35k miles with full...
A couple of months back my step daughter had a problem with here hazards not turning off and not been able to use her indicators. I did manage to sort this out (after some help on here) by taking the hazard switch out and putting it back in again.
Now a couple of weeks back her indicators...
I was called out last night by my Step daughter as her Clio (52 plate) started to not indicate right but instead indicate left when trying to indicate right.
She tried her hazards and all the indicaters worked but now the hazards won't turn off, unless you take the fuse out but then she's got no...
Help required on CD model number!
Just bought a CD player off Ebay and it supposed to be from a 2003 Clio but it doesn't fit a 52 plate Clio. Surely they'll all be the same fit?
The model number is RENRDW240-00
It seems to be about 1cm too wide and 1/2 cm too tall.
Heads up for anyone looking for a 55 plate Trophy with 18803 miles on the clock.
Its going through BCA Nottingham on Wednesday 16th August (this Wednesday)
It books at £8700 if its straight and tidy. There will be a buyers premium on top though, can't remember how much as its based on hammer...
When I was last at the dealers, a salesman mentioned to me that there is supposedly a 4 wheel drive version of the 197 due to be released.
Has anybody else heard this, or is it general knowledge?
Anyone used it?:D
Was think about getting a couple of pots for the Clio...not
Just ordered some Pinnacle Souveran Paste though, which is more realistic for a Clio at £39.95 which will follow the megs #7, #80, #83 with the PC once the transformer arrives.
Can't wait for Sunday:)
Anybody got any inside info on how long it'll be before the friends and family scheme will be available on the 197?
Also will leather be an option soon?
While washing the car down on Saturday I left the washmit in the bucket whilst we had that storm but when I went back to wash the car, the washmit disintegrated all over the car:dapprove:
Are they not designed to stay wet in a soapy bucket?
My partner's 1.6 Dynamique had a problem with the aircon not working effectively or not at all. We took it into a non-Renault garage last week to have it re-gassed, but yesterday she said its not working at all, just blowing normal air. We took it into Renault today to have the new spare key...
Sods law... bought my partner's clio only a couple of weeks ago and there was no locking wheel nut key or centre cap key. Well I managed to get a new centre cap key the other day and not managed to get to a dealer for a key for the locking wheel nut, so what happened today?...a bloody puncture...
When I bought the car the rear mat was just lying in the back but how do you fit it?
Does it go underneath the black casing where the V6 no sticker is or over the top
Cheers
I need to replace the cassette/tuner in my partner's 52 plate dynamique for a CD/tuner.
Whats the difference between the various models? ie; Cabasse Auditorium (not sure on model number and tuner list 22DC278/62B.
Is there any difference between say a 2001, 2002, 2003 and son on?
Cheers
I've only got one key for the 52 plate Clio that I've just bought for my partner and I don't really want to pay £130 from a renault dealer for a spare unless I have to. I did look on Ebay and they are selling remotes separately so does this mean I can buy a remote and insert a new blade and then...
Just bought a 52 plate 1.6 dynamique for my other half which seems quite a nice motor but I'm a bit baffled as it only has a cassette and no CD which I thought was std for the year and model. I've looked to see if it's got a CD changer but not sure where it would be. Tried under both front...
I've just bought a 1.2 Grande for my partners son from a car auction although we're not picking it up until tommorrow and I need to know what's the tyre size on the car because I need to get 4 new tyres for it on the way back before it goes in for a MOT.
I can remember it has similar alloys...
I may consider buying my wifes 182 from her to save the hassle of her advertising it but the insurance maybe a little steep for me as a second car starting afresh with no NCB.
As anyone insured a 182 without NCB in their 30s? I could go through one of the internet insurance sites to see what...
I wont go into too much detail as I know this isnt the right place but basically my wife wants to buy a Boxster S (she was going to have a new 05 Clio V6 until they said that they stopped production:() so she wants to sell her 4 month old 182.
What would be the right price to sell her car, not...
One of my staff has a son whos recently bought a P reg 1.2 Clubmed (not sure what that is) and hes 17 years old and about to take his test.
The car cost £1600 but the insurance quotes are more than the car is worth with TPFT. I bought a new 550 Boxster S this year and paid £416 fully comp, and...
Ive got a 182 due on the 9th Dec for the wife but want to order a V6 for March 01st on an 05 plate, but do Renault normally update specs for a new model year like some other manufacturers?
Ive seen plenty of pics of the blue V6 but not the black, so if anyones got a link to some decent black pics Id be greatful. Also do you get black interior trim to match teh exterior or is it grey like the ID paints?
Cheers
Im about to order a 182 to replace the wifes 172 as Ive been offered a good discount, but what would I expect to get off a V6 if she prefered one of those beasts instead.
BTW does anyone know why you cannot order satnav on the Clios now, as the one thing that helped sell the 172 was...
Or Worcestershire, as I need to take the 172 in for a look at a rattle.
I cant get into the dealers area so I thought this was the best place to post.
Cheers
Hi All,
Ive just picked up a year old 172 Sport.
It all looks ok appart from the odd chip and couple of scratches on the rump and some curbed alloys. Has anyone had their wheels refurbed? if so how much as it cost?
Driving it back yesterday evening from London I noticed that about 80mph...
