My 172 has been parked up for a while (over a year) and is partially stripped. I took the dash out one day and had the doors open etc so I think the battery went flat.
The car wouldn't turn over and I assumed this was a flat battery, but recently charged the battery and it won't turn over...

I've put most of the remaining parts on eBay from the cup I had.
If anyone from CS wants any part(s) then as I've just listed them and there's no bids, I'll happily end the auction for the start price. Once a bid has been placed for any item, that offer...
I've had my 172 for 4 years now and it's been a great car. It has been swapped between myself and my wife during that time and its been back with me for a while now. It has been reliable and most importantly, its fun to drive.
i have a bike to use for commuting and a 2005 EP3 CTR for when I...
I've had my flamer for 3 and a half years and love it, but I have always like the RB 182's. I don't use the flamer much, it's in great condition and I personally think it's the best colour 172. I do however think the RB 182 is the best colour 182 (like the yellow, but not as much as the RB).
I...
Just spotted an R27 for sale near me and the plate is "R2 SVN". I have PM'd Stoddie (http://www.cliosport.net/forum/member.php?11666-stoddie) as it looks like he had it (and put the plate and spoiler on), but as he may not come on to check the PM, I thought I would see if anyone else knew...
Saw the Monaco 172 that used to belong to the lad that works at Revolution this morning. I think the new owner works at NRAM.
Not sure if the new owner is on here though.
I had the Clio stored in the garage for a few months, but I needed the space for the Proton, so I got it back out.........It's a lot of fun compared to the wife's Ford Fusion... New splitter will be on tomorrow, the od one is in a mess....
Just spotted what I think was your car on the A1 (Kingston Park area).
I was on my way into work on the bike and spotted a 172 and I recognised the plate from the NERP meet.
Has anyone had these fitted in their Clio? I know of a set that are a decent price, but unsure if they will look ok.
I'm not asking if they will fit etc, there's plenty of info about that, but they are quite distinctive (they have dark red ass/back pads), so wanting to see if they look 'out...
I have the standard 172 wheels on my flamer, they have been painted grey and I think they look decent, but I fancy a change. I have added a few pics below of some examples, but any other reccommendations/suggestions/photoshops would be welcome.
Standard Flamer wheels/colour (photo stolen from...
I use my bike (the SV in the last pic) to commute and my wife has a car, so the Clio is going to be kept in the garage until I need it again (when it snows).
The SV is also going (just ordered a ER6-F) as well, so I thought I would grab a couple of pictures of them together.
During the...
I think I am a little late for the Jam-Sport offer and the ones from Demon Tweeks have gone right up, so I have started looking around.
Has anyone bought from/heard of "FR&RT Tuning"? They have the 'two hole' Whiteline ARB on for £147.89. Sems cheap, but never heard of the company...
I have found what will possibly be a cheap car to play around with, it has some test, but it is 100mile away and it has no tax :(
According to the FAQ on "Day Insure" it is technically possible to tax a car using this, but has anyone had any direct experience of this...
I might be quite late in discovering these, as I think they have been out for a while, but just got a pair of "The North Face E-TIP" gloves.
They are more than i'd normally pay for a pair, but I think they are a good buy...
Spotted today in the car park at work. I would guess it used to belong to the lad that work(s) at Revolution, i'm guessing it's either been sold, or he now works somewhere else.
Just been on the Xbox and I noticed that they currently have a 33% off offer on. This makes it circa £26.50 for a 12 month subscription.
There is a note to say it will automatically renew after 12months, but I'm going to pay, the remove my card details so there's no automatic renewal...
I have bought some wheels. They are Tam Dynamics wheels, but not sure of the model.
To be honest it doesn't really matter, I am just curious. I can't find them listed in the 'current' model list http://www.rimstyle.com/products/wheels/brand-details.html?manufacturer=team_dynamics so I am...
Spotted some Team Dynamic wheels for sale locally. They are new, but were bought for a Vauxhall and then not used.
I was wondering if new wheels are sold with the correct size centre bore for the make of car, or are they sold with a 'default' centre bore and spiggot rings?
My wife has asked what I want for Christmas and my cheeky suggestion of a PS3 went better than I thought it would.
I borrowed a friends PS3 over the weekend and played C.O.D. MW2 and I had a few games, the host only changed once during a game in about 2 hours and the connection seemed better...
Spotted a black 182 today whilst driving through egremont, I'm sure I have heard someone in the past say they were from that area. It's quite a small place so can't be many RS Clio's around.
I'm staying along the road in st. Bees.
The o/s handbrake cable has just snapped on the 172 :( The day before it is supposed to be going in for the M.O.T.
When I searched on here, a few threads ended up suggesting going to the Dealers because non genuine ones often didn't fit.
Tried ringing the dealers but they are shut. Phoned my...
Morning,
I have a couple of questions, not all are really RS Clio related, but I am hoping for some help.
I am pretty certain from what I have read in the past, that my 172 has a F4R engine.
Can anyone confirm that some MKII Clio's used a DF4 engine? Also, is this used in the Twingo...
My lass has been out in the car and she called me to say it 'wasn't right'.
Just been to it and when I first started the car, there was a 'popping' sound coming from around the oil filler cap. Had a look through the gap and the lead was loose. When I took the upper part of the inlet manifold...
Google has failed me and nobody in the office has tried this so hoping someone on here can help me.
I have a simple enough graph (3 plot lines), but a couple of the lines are all over the place, a smooth line won't help, so I have added a Linear Trerend. Great so far.....
When I have the...
Spotted this on ebay..........surely this isn't something somebody wold pay £125 for......is it?
