    What Splitter is this? (Not Cup Splitter)

    How much do secondhand genuine 182 splitters go for these days? I have a fairly mint one sitting in my garage...

    RB, New Wheels, New Pics

    I did, just a little.

    Standard springs.

    Constant battle with BT internet

    You'll keep the Vision box, you get a new router that sits along side your Home Hub. Oh and about 70-80Mb/s :cool:

    Selling the car to someone abroad

    Rapid car price depreciation seems to be a uniquely British thing. Cars hold their value a lot better on the continent for example. I sold my first Clio to a guy from France, he paid in cash which I checked with a money pen. It was all fine, nice guy too. Followed it on the French Clio forum...

    Are clio 1*2 hubs interchangeable?

    Possibly the arms on steering rack too, as I had to when replacing a rack earlier in the year.

    Look what an old lady did to my car...

    When it comes to old people driving, in fact driving in general - I think everyone should be subject to re-tests every 10 years, then every 5 years once you're 65. The way I look at it - you have to reapply for your Passport every 10 years which is pretty much your citizenship to the country...

    hit by a lorry :(

    I bought my wreck back from Admiral last year, so don't know why people are saying that you can't. It knocked a couple of hundred off of my payout but was well worth it overall. Also I am receiving treatment for a back injury (and recovering nicely by the looks of it) which was not apparent at...

    Petrol Blue 182 Gt. Notley Tesco's, Braintree

    I saw this guy the other day on the A131, tried to catch up but too much traffic!! Petrol Blue and Gold wheels - I have to say, sort of works lol!

    So you said it couldn't be done... 182 Bought!

    Those side repeaters are odd, would have put me off personally. Avoid the unexplained lol.

    To cup, or not to cup...... that is the question

    If I was going to get another Mk2 Clio, I'd probably just pick up a cheap 172 with some decent recent history. The differences between these cars is negligible when it comes to chucking it round a corner or planting your foot on a straight. Edit: Probably try and get myself a flamer thinking...

    Netflix free trial?

    I find the US Netflix to have plenty to watch, it will probably always have more UK series etc than the UK version thanks to exclusive licensing with LoveFilm.

    Netflix free trial?

    Clearly have not tried.

    Netflix free trial?

    Running out of stuff to watch lol?! You're doing it wrong. Change your DNS settings so you can view the American content.

    ***Essex - North Weald Test & Tune - Sunday 13th May***

    Those speed bumps would have eaten my car for breakfast, still I had fun in the 3 seater R26 though!

    a clocked clio ?

    Love the old photo. Much better than this surge of "vintage" pictures on facebook courtesy of Instagram. Is the car not an old Mazda 323?

    Steering rack replacement?

    Cheers, yeah swapped out for a 2nd hand low mileage item. :)

    Steering rack replacement?

    Ok so for reference - the racks are essentially the same; the arms are different but these are interchangeable.

    Haha, that's superb. :D Lovely looking little cars those.

    Clio Renaultsport No.7

    I'm going to try so hard not to get another Clio for my next car lol. They are so cheap though and are one of the nicest cars in the go-kart category.

    Been a long time...

    Well what is your budget? To be honest mate, I'd expand your search a bit - always worth travelling for the right car.

    any one know how to turn on bottom spotlights

    They shouldn't do, unless you're very short. The reason fog lights are located so low on cars is to increase the angle between the light source and your eyes - this reduces the amount of light that is reflected directly back to the driver's eyes, though some light will still shine back at you...

    2011 Clio - Powdercoated alloys?

    Flappy Windscreen Syndrome

    The plastic edging around my windscreen keeps coming loose on the drivers side and flapping around in the wind, so I need to seal it with something. I've had this with another Clio before so it must be a fairly common issue. Just wondering which sealants people have used in the past or any...

    My Arctic gets the 2118 treatment...

    Yeah they do definitely shine longer when sealed. Kerbed my N/S front the other day, so gutted. It's not MAJOR-major but I haven't kerbed an alloy for years!! I need to find a decent refurb place in Essex... :dapprove:

    My Arctic gets the 2118 treatment...

    Haha true, I have had worse tbh though. In anthracite they look really nice clean - when they sparkle, but very quickly get dirty and dull.
  29. jimjim150

    Few pics after a good clean

    Oooff is that non cup suspension?! Lovely garages :approve: Get some nice clean number plates without a border - http://www.fancyplates.com/
