My car makes this funny noise when it's cold. It's an odd sort of beep/mechanical scrape. It's quite clear to hear on the video below. Can anyone shed any light on what it might be please? It seems to go away when it's been running for about 10 mins.

Right then, I hope someone can help me please. Car is a 2008 197 with 36k on the clock. I used to have a slight vibration through the steering at about 50 to 65mph. I had some new front tyres last weekend and had the front swapped to the back. They balanced all four wheels. I've now got a more...
Does anyone know if the height adjuster motor in a 197 reflector headlight is the same as the height adjuster motor in a 197 projector headlight? i.e can I put the motor out of my reflector headlight in to the projector headlight?
Thanks.
Went out the other day on my week off from work and took some pics. The car was dirty but you get the idea. You can't beat a grey November sky! Nevermind.
Then one the other morning when there was plenty of dew around:
Had a great day despite the weather. I can't believe how good value it was. I really enjoyed the entertainment with the Rage Buggy etc. Well done cliosport.net.
Anyway, a link to my CSS pictures is below. Thanks for looking.

Saw you tonight turning onto greenhill lane at about 6:05. I was two cars back at the traffic lights facing swanwick. I'll forgive you for not seeing me.
Saw two Albi 197's on my way home from work. About 12:45. First one turned right down the industrial estate near gk ford. The other was on Nottingham Road goin towards Alfreton, just past Somercotes Medical Centre. Bloody common as muck! Lol.
Spotted just pulling out of the junction for the car park for Aldi, Iceland, £stretcher and b&q on Nottingham Road, Somercotes. You definitely noticed me goin past.
I see this most days between 1 and 2pm when I'm on my lunch, going along high street. It's got blue wheels and I'm sure there's a CS.net sticker in the back window.
Does anyone know what's causing this on the video? As you'll be able to hear, there's a klunk/knock from the steering when moved back and forth. It sounds to me like something's wrong with the steering lock. I've taken the covers off but can't seem to get at the lock or anything (I was gonna...
Well the 197 failed it's mot today :-( warped o/s front disc! Ordered some Brembo discs and some Pagid pads. Couldn't find any Brembo pads to fit. £115 in total which I didn't think was too bad. Was gonna be £210 or so for the bits from Renault. Hopefully they'll be ok. Fingers crossed. Car's...
Spotted yesterday at about 8:30 am at Ripley a38 roundabout. Plate was something like CL 10 ALO or CL 11 ALO I think. I was just comin off the roundabout headin in to Ripley and you were comin on to the roundabout. You definitely saw me as you had a good stare ;-) The GT looked a lot like a 200...
Spotted twice today. 9:30 ish in Pinxton and then at 5:00 on king street Alfreton. I was second car back in Pinxton and then you went up King Street as I was goin down in my Albi 197.
Here's my pictures of today's meet. They're taken on my phone though (I don't have a fancy camera like Paul).
Was nice to meet some new people...when we all eventually decided to talk :o

Spotted a white 200 with a private plate (L something) going from Selston towards Jacksdale tonight at about 9:10pm. I was waiting at the cross roads in my Albi 197. Are you on here?
I know there's already a few threads of pictures from TOPO, but here are mine. They're taken on my phone so apologies if they're not that great.
