After buying @Mbeau's 172 Cup, I'm keen to get the Bilstein B14s set up properly now that they've settled. Any recommendations for where I could take the car in Kent please? Anyone in particular good with Clios?

Quite interested in this 200, seems a good price BUT it doesn't have any service history. I've spotted in the photos it has a CS sticker so wondering if it was owned by someone on here who might be able to provide some more info on it...

After saying goodbye to my Megane 250 a couple of months ago, there has been a very big Renaultsport void in my life. I got hooked three years ago when I started working at PistonHeads and in that time I've had a 182 Trophy, 172 Cup, R26 Megane 230 F1 and most recently my 321hp Megane 250...

Never had this issue before, but now on my third Clio and when I disconnect the battery the alarm keeps going off. I need to disconnect it to remove the airbag to fit a Sparco steering wheel, but the bloody thing won't stop going off! Any thoughts on this? Can the alarm be disarmed to stop this...

I've been meaning to post this for ages! I bought a brand new pair of Corbeau Clubsport seats last year, can't believe how much of a bargain they are at £150 each. They're close to me in Kent too, so easy to pop down. I couldn't find any 3 point harnesses I liked either, so I asked Corbeau to...

I'm assuming that a long time ago, the front grills on all 1*2s were black. The one on my Trophy and now my Cup is a pale shade of grey, and I was wondering if anyone has any tips on restoring it back to its former glory?

I'm looking at the options for a daily tyre to include wet track use, as I have a second set of wheels with Avon ZZRs for dry track. I normally run Michelin PS3s, but have been recommended Uniroyal Rainsports or Federal RSRs that'll both do well in the wet. Any experience on these and what...

I'm stuck between these two Sparco steering wheels, one is 300mm and the other is 350mm. Does anyone have one fitted, or any experience of a similar sized wheel as I'm sure there'll be quite a big difference in feel between the two? Option one - Sparco 300 wheel (300mm)...

Sorry if this has been done to death, but I'm keen to get opinions on the best coil overs for my 172 Cup for under a grand. It's a weekend car and will do a mix of road and track driving with a few sprints hopefully. Any first hand experience? Bilstein B14 seems to stand out, but no adjustable...

My Clio has decided to start blowing cold air on my feet (drivers side only, passenger is fine), constantly. Even when the heating is set to warm and I'm getting warm air everywhere else in the car, my feet are getting cold air. It doesn't matter what setting the heater unit is on and where the...

I was out at Silverstone on Sunday, and was running my 182 for just under two hours solid. I popped the bonnet at the end and my coolant (which was changed in November) had gone from a lovely vibrant pink to a very dark brown/black colour. No overheating issues or cream on the oil cap to...

I've just bought a set of Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2s and wrapped them in Avon ZZRs, 195/50/15. I'm having a -2 camber set up done at the moment, with 10 minutes toe out. Getting her out at Silverstone this Sunday for a play at the PistonHeads Sunday Service. Can anyone recommend what sort of...

Hi all, I've got a 182 Trophy and I'm looking to get a set of Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2s with R888s for track use. I have to admit I know absolutely nothing about wheels, other than lots of people telling me I should run 15s. Can anyone tell me what size I should get? Is it standard for the...
