    Big Steve’s Clio 200 Raider

    Yeah still got it, just sat in the garage now, I’ll never sell it, just nice to have for the nice days I will pass it on to my son when he’s old/responsible enough 😂 It was a little on the expensive side but the low miles and low number would of made up for that in the long run

    Big Steve’s Clio 200 Raider

    Looking tidy, nice to see another being looked after, seen you about on Insta I think I nearly bought No.1 last year wish I had now it was silly low miles for some reason I bought a M2 comp instead 😂 but I’m on the hunt for a 5 raider, found one rotting away on someone’s drive but they...

    House Rewire

    (haven't read the thread so may have been mentioned) i wouldn't worry about wired internet access, wifi is good enough now to not really require it, for the average joe internet user, cat cable is a good shout for AV though, centralise all your sky, virgin, PS3, xbox ect in one cupboard and...

    182 transmission failure

    i can confirm you would loose more than just 2nd if you do that, my dad did it coming down the back straight at donnington (not once but twice, put it in second at 100-110 instantly knew it was wrong went for fourth but slammed it back in second) :LOL: nothing left of the box

    Proline Motorsport Brake Line kits.

    his attitude absolutely stunk with me, lied to me a number of times about when he had sent stuff out, couldn't provide tracking and when it came the post date proved he lied, i got flamed to f**k when i outed the c**t, what goes around comes around i guess nothing wrong with the product just...

    K4M Timing

    Just want some clarification off the experienced please is the K4M timing setup the same as the F4R, I've got the timing tools for the F4R and done plenty of Cambelt, Dephaser, water pumps on the F4R but no experience with the K4M, so basically can i use the same tools ? Cheers

    Federal RS-PRO?? New version of RSR?

    For track, you want to at least be looking at nankang ar-1, Toyo r888r For the road ps4 or just ps4 for both I imagine they will be better that the federals on track and will be far better in real world British conditions on the road

    Federal RS-PRO?? New version of RSR?

    They are cheap for a reason, Barely a track tyre, barely a road tyre, If you go on track you are far better off getting a dedicated track tyre on some extra wheels And get a good set of road tyres like ps4 on your daily wheels

    Stuttering between 3k and 4k (197)

    I know the hold back feeling mine does it usually after I have give it some stick, switched it off let it go cold then the next start up it will be horrific, kangarooing, spluttering misfiring, sounds like anti lag The only way I get past it is just gently let the revs rise, 1/4 throttle max...

    Stuttering between 3k and 4k (197)

    When the car is cold most of them do this here you have to ease the car up to temperature Or if it’s all the time, there is water down coil 4 (timing belt side) causing a misfire,

    Raider... paintwork....plea

    Full Respray is usually the only option they struggle with the colour match more than the Matt finish, the paint code is more blue than the actual car colour I’ve owned #3 for the last 6 years so know the pain I’ve have a front bumper blown over and it’s never quite right I have a extra...

    Matt Paint

    You really don’t see them, it’s due to the rough finish matte lacquer has (not rough to the touch) compared to gloss, it reflects light in a different way so they literally don’t show up, The only wear and tear scratches you can get are from being a womble and not taking care of it, which any...

    Matt Paint

    Hmmm not really, if you are referring to lights scratches in the sense of swirls they don’t exist you end up flatting the top coat before you will see them If you catch it with a screw driver that’s a different story The lacquer is just as tough as any gloss paint

    You get it resprayed

    Matt Paint

    No the paint is just as tough as any gloss car, but water can be abrasive at high pressures, so it’s essentially sanding/polishing the paint, which flattens it off causing it to become glossy

    Matt Paint

    Fine from a distance, Renault recommend not to but that’s to idiot proof them as you get people who blast the paint from 2 inches away

    Matt Paint

    Steer away from anything designed for gloss enhancing ect you want a dedicated matte care kit I.e swissvax opaque, chemical guys matte ect Had matt paint for 6 years now, aslong as you keep it protected it’s easy to look after, doesn’t swirl ect just don’t scratch it, it’s a nightmare to match

    Invisible boot button?

    Just unlocks it, it’s a cheap french hatchback not a high end German exec saloon

    Invisible boot button?

    There is no physical button inside a mk3 to open the boot you can fish around in the locking mechanism with a small screwdriver to release it

    What made you pick a Clio?

    RenaultSport have a quirk that other manufactures just don’t have imo it’s the X factor you can’t put your finger on it but it’s the thing that puts a smile on your face

    Moving to a Mac/macbook.. anyone made the jump?

    Wow I can’t believe how much concern there is over virus’s, seems like very old school computer mindset Never had virus software on my Mac since the day I bought 8 years ago, it’s about being sensible on what you click on and download, if it looks and sounds good to be true don’t click on it or...

    Moving to a Mac/macbook.. anyone made the jump?

    Still run my MacBook Pro mod 2010 only thing I’ve replaced in all that time is the battery, it’s been absolutely faultless, great for just general browsing, struggles with booting apps now like photoshop but once running its fine, can’t complain for a 8 year old computer seen me through uni and...

    200t aggressive gear change sports/race mode

    I’d assume that’s normal, don’t own one but have owned cars with DSG’s ect and gear shifts are usually faster in sport mode, they will also be more aggressive due to the speed

    Clio 220 trophy PH2 vs Megane 275 trophy chat

    Yeah they do have a nice roar to them, I’m the opposite I like to rev my cars out I don’t stay on the limiter but get pretty close to it, the clio has took the abuse for the last 60k and not a thing has gone wrong, I honestly believe these engines last longer if you drive them as they where...
