    Who owns my old Clio 172?

    Just thought i'd see if anyone on here owns my old Silver 172. I sold it about 3 years ago and was wondering what's happened to it!? Y-reg, iceburg silver. Y*** FFR. Probably a fair few miles on it now! I wonder if it's still alive!?

    Battle 2 Xbox 360

    Bought this yesterday and have been playing it quite a bit lately. I'm impressed by the new graphics over the old xbox version and i like the way you can chat with your friends like you're on the phone to them when you're playing. It looks impressive, even without a HD tv, which i'l be...

    Argh, trying to fix bro's computer - LNK and EXE files not opening...

    My brother was running adaware and during a scan it went 'funny'. Basically it seems none of the .lnk or .exe files work. This sounds like a virus which has affected the registry. Unfortunately we can't even run regedit. I tried renaming it as a .bat file but it still wouldn't run. I...

    What HD TV?

    I'm thinking of getting one to accompany my premium 360. I was looking at the Samsungs today and they have lots of cable slots in the back, along with the freeview integral. Although doesn't have the posh computer monitor input like the Philips, although the philips has hardly any ports in...

    Battlefield2 xbox live

    Been playing this bad boy (after spending all over xmas trying to get it connected to the net - kept crashing out!?) for a while today, now a major sargeant or something with 450 odd medal points. REALLY addictive and fantastic multiplayer (now that it works!) Anyone else on line in here...

    What Nokia?

    I like Nokia's and it's time i had a new one. I like lots of Gadgets - good cam, and memory for mp3's etc. I've lost touch with them at the moment and was wondering which you'd recommend (Nokia) for an upgrade of my 7610 (which i'm very pleased with...) Hope you can help me! cheers, si

    Did any of you have interesting customers? any test drivers that toasted your car to an inch of its life? I remember last year when i was selling my mk.1 172 i had one guy, he must have been over 70 and took it for a test. He was telling me about all his other cars subarus and had an...

    Spluttering on part throttle.....

    As strange as it may seem my car being on part throttle (a shock to its system?), recently when decelerating it splutters and jerks almost as if theres crap in the fuel lines or something. A bit like a cold carb engine, but does it all the time now. The revs also take AGES to fall once revved...

    More lively -not- on shell’s finest

    As it instructs on the filler cap to use 98 and everyone says the Optimax is wonder-juice ive used it at every fill up. For a change i decided to mix in some super unleaded from total and also from Texaco. Dunno whether its just an "ecotek effect" but it seems more lively and pulls harder...

    Not just Clio’s with bad reliability....

    Whenever a discussion comparing different cars of similar specs to the clio in general, one wild card that most rivals use is; "Renault build quality is bad". Now not wanting to cause a row, but after reading the CTR board which is often compared to the clio, the supposedly superiorly reliable...

    you havent checked your airbox cold air pipes. Imagine trying to breath with big Tyrone with his hands around your neck - id have thought it to be pretty darn difficult. Well, thats what your cars doing if you left it up to someone else other than yourself to put the airbox back together! I...

    Oh no, toasted by everything! :-(

    .......in my courtesy boat. What a nightmare!! The accelerator seems to make a noise when depressed, but nothing else happens really. Cars in the garage (for a change) for "investigation" into how my second gearbox is now crunching like a stomped cockroach family. Also the clutch judders...

    Stripping! ;-)

    Stripping out our cars from uneccesary bulk is the best/cheapest mod available. Im wondering and ive heard from people that it is classed as lightening? I was also disgusted to have been told you have to inform your insurance if you are going to do this to your car? Just thought id warn...

    Pads 90% worn....

    Now seeing as Renault are bound to charge me something huge for the cost of ordering and buying new pads, does anyone recommend where and what pads i should get? Should i just buy some Renault boat pads? or go for something a little more snake oil-esque like EBC green bogies? Do anywhere do...
