    Rick's Rather boring 172

    A little update Finally managed to sort some rear lights out, so it looks 100% less chav. Thank god. Also, now running the 98 ron map. Properly different now. I sort of miss the 5k kick. It does pull from 3.5k now, but i have caught myself looking down at the speedo to see why it's still...

    N/S creaking noise on fresh suspension

    I've got this, from doing a bit of reading it might be the Top mounts at fault. I'll have a look at mine at some point and let you know if it solves the issue. I can't find the thread now, but it was something to do with a revised top mount design and some people had used washers to stop the...

    Being 30 and in a 182

    For me, being over 30 and having a Clio isn't the problem... it's constantly wanting to drive like a 17 year old that is lol It's like a little devil on the shoulder whispering in the ear.

    As it's warm, I decided to get something done about the lack of Cold Air through the Climate Control. Took it down to Adrian Beck in Shipley this morning. Expected the worst when i came to pick it up, but all it needed was a re-gas and it now fires out freezing cold air! Result. REally...

    RSTuner

    It's locked to a certain Vin number i think, so you need to get it unlocked before using it by buying a license for the car you want to use it on.

    My mates just found out his car is cat c

    Thats Wrong With a CAT C you will probably get 80% of the full value. It could have been CAT C'd because the repair was £1 over a threshold. However the price should have reflected that in the first instance.

    ***How much is it worth?***

    Glasses say about 5.5-5.8K on that Mileage with Liquid yellow buying Retail from a dealer. 4.3 if you are trading it in. There would be a little bit extra if you had the lux pack.

    PH1 172 CRASH

    More than likely they've referred him to a Credit hire company. These people exist to make money out of claims, and will attempt to charge the third party insurer for the money at extortionate daily rates for hire cars. Unless you've added a specific hire car option to the policy they will refer...

    PH1 172 CRASH

    With Liability, they usually only waive the excess if the third party has admitted fault before they pay you out. As in they've contacted your insurer and told them, not you. It's better to get the third party insurance details and contact them directly rather than your insurance. As then you...

    Experience with police?

    I used to get pulled over all the time when i Had my Astra. Mostly my own fault for driving a bit quick. Best one was the unmarked Fiat Stilo with the under cover police hung out of it at 40mph waving his warrant card telling me to pull over. Accused me of racing another car, which I wasn't...

    You'd probably benefit more by putting the money to use booking time with a race driving instructor

    To be honest I didn't know much about the car setup, just wanted to make sure it was all OK. I didn't know they had a 2 wheel option either lol

    Hi All, Thought i'd put a thread up. This is my First foray into French cars, having been mostly a Vauxhall person before. My commuting car a really tidy Almera 1.8 SXE (fully loaded with sat nav etc..) got written off by someone pulling out so after looking at various things, i ended up test...

    Crashed the mk1.

    Sorry to see you've crashed it mate. It least you did it the right way :) A couple of my friends were there as well, in a Livered up Puma and A fiesta with a puma engine. They said it was hard going in the wet, with Plenty of crashes. Were you on the evening session?

    What made you choose A Clio sport?

    I used to enjoy driving when i had a Mk3 Astra GSI with a 350bhp turbo engine in it. Then i sold it, and never really enjoyed driving, having gone through loads of crap cars. Then someone pulled out in front of me and wrote my commuting car off... Which was an Almera (probably did me a favour)...
