    Clio RS200 running costs

    I get on the trip about 26.6mpg. But I always look at how much I put in for miles covered, light-light. 330miles to a tank. My 172 used to be about 300 to a tank but the 197 has a gallon more fuel. I would say both are about the same for me but I hoooned the 172 every where and tyres are...

    Is the phase1 a future classic?

    the V6 or Trophy are the only 2 with a chance. the V6 has the best chance mainly because most people buy them just to say they had or have one.

    Battery / Starter Motor Issue

    On my 1.4 there was a small green wire in the wiring loom that had snaped, but not completly. Check this, because it was the renault tech guy so told me to check this on mine. I dont think a car will ever stall once running because of flat'sh battry??

    Check Emissions light 197 after cambelt change

    The "check emissions" light came on in my 197 the day after having my cam belts done, could this be related. What other things might cause the light to come on? (Engine management light- "Check Emissions") The car seems to run fine, no miss-firing or juddering. There was a strange quite loud...

    worth swapping a 182 ff for a 172 cup?

    A Clio Cup isnt a cheaper car to run or insure, just a cheaper car to buy. I could buy a £10-15k car but it doesnt meen I can afford to run it. Also Insurance is main reason I dont drive around in a M3 as its would cost £3200
  22. OLR

    Who's everyone with Insurance wise and is it a reasonable price ?

    this -£5 = £695 all mods declared 3 or 4years NCB 22yrs

    worth swapping a 182 ff for a 172 cup?

    first thing you do when buyin a car (or should) is see if you can afford the running costs. Insurance is a running cost, so if you cant pay it, sell the car and get something you can afford to run. Just to put it in perspective ive spent over the last 5 years on my car insurance = £6000 + car...
