I was messing around on YouTube last night and found some amazing DTM videos from the 80's and 90's, but the soundtrack was awful, so I changed it a bit ;) The music might not be to everyone's taste, but I prefer it to the original terribleness. Take a look here: If anyone else got any...

Saw your car and I think you waved but I was too busy lighting my cigarette, and you'd gone past by the time I'd realised, :( I was in the silver Cup.

Never had these, don't know what they're like, but these seem ridiculously cheap at the moment for anyone wanting some cheap lows :)...

Is anyone attending this weekend? I'll be there tomorrow on the Combustion Punks stand, hopefully the weather will hold out. A great event in you're in the area, highly recommended! http://www.doningtonhistoric.com/the-event/

The wheel bolts on my 172 cup are looking way past their best, so I'm looking for some new ones, preferably locking. I was going to go for some Renault OE ones, but just wondering if anyone has bought any other aftermarket bolts and had good experiences with them? Don't want cheap Chinese ones...

Bit of a strange question, but can anyone tell me what type of OEM aerial came on the RS Clio cup circa 2003? Mine has a short stubby thing on it and was wondering if it's standard or not, although I think it might not be? Or Did the 172 Cups come with the standard long aerial from the rest of...

I was just wondering if it is easy to remove the front seat bases from the back rest part of the seats? I've got some newer seats for my 172 and they're in better condition than those currently in the car. However, the newer dirvers one has a very small cigarette burn on the base, I want to...

I'm going to change the aux belt on my 172 cup ph2 soon, and just wondered if there's any special tools ill need? I'm removing the front bumper to replace the lights anyway, so planning to do it then. Is it pretty straight forward with there being no A/C ? I've looked for a guide but I can't...

I've done a search on here to try and find out if anyone has the Supersprint Stealth system fitted to their 172 Ph2, but I can't find too much about it. Does anyone have one fitted, either the one with the centre silencer or without? If so, what was it like to fit and are there any problems...

I'm going to have a go at refurbishing my 172 cup headlights today. If I don't get the result I want, I may buy some new ones as they're around £60 a pair on ebay from Renparts etc. But, are these actually any good compared to the genuine Renault ones I have at the moment or are they inferior...

Ok, so after owning a Mk1 Clio 1.8 16v in 2002, I vowed I'd never buy another Renault again. The valver was to that point the most enjoyable car I had driven, but the worst for things going wrong. In hindsight, I don't think I cared for it particularly well at the time, so maybe I had myself to...

I picked up my 172 Cup last week and it came with a Cobra twin tail pipe cat back exhaust system, but its not really my thing. I'm looking at getting a K-Tec Stealth system, but what is the difference in noise levels between the sport and supersport? Any other recommendations welcome for a...

I picked up my 172 Cup on Friday and I'm pretty happy with it so far. But, the temp gauge is reading low so I guess the the thermostat is knackered, but I want to change the coolant temp sensor too whilst I'm at it. Does anyone have a part number or link for the right one? Also, I'll be...

OK, so after years away from the Clio scene, I've found myself looking again at possibly buying a 172 Cup or a 182. The prices seem quite low at the moment and there are some nice examples out there. I've always wanted a 172 Cup to be fair. I owned a '95 Ph2 1.8 16v Clio many moons ago, and...

Does anyone know if it's possible to remove the top, o/s and n/s outer windscreen rubber seals without removing the windscreen? The ones on the car are in a bad way and could do with replacing!If so, anyone know where I can get them from and how much they are?

I need to replace the Tyres on the others halves 1.2 16v - the car is on the standard 15" Renault alloys, with 185 55 15 Tyres. I have a set of hardly used Kuhmo's in the garage, but they're 195 60 15's. If I put the Kuhmo's on, will I have any problems? Also, can anyone tell me if the...

Does anyone own this? it was mine!

I had a valver, a 95 m plate - got it with 60k - sold it at 97k - the 1st 18months were terrific - it just got better and better...but after 75/80k, stuff started going wrong - gearbox, stearing rack, rusty rear arches - big money stuff. I think i made the mistake of using it as my main car...

God damn it! just getting the valver ready to sell and fecking walk out to the petrol station to see water p1ssing out of the bottom of the radiator...filled it back up, but was gone again after 20 mins of driving...took the lid off the water tank and the water was all white with bubbles in...

Does anyone know the standard fitment size for the door speakers on the 16v or any clio up to 96? Is it 16cm / 5&quarter inch?

Does anyone happen to know if an ignition coil from a 1995 phase 2 16v would be the same off another model clio/megane etc? Think i need a new one, but gonna go to the scrappy tom. and know for a fact i wont find a williams or valver....any ideas? anyone have the part no for it? Thanks...

Has anyone bought and fitted an advanced timing sensor from B/B? Whats the difference, and are they any better than the original replacement one ?

Anyone done this before? can anyone tell me anything to look out for, or tell me how to.....!??!? Cheers :)

Can anyone help me with this one? Got my car back from the garage who reconnd my gearbox and fitted a new Sachs competition cluth. Everything ok with this, and gearbox look lovely and new in engine bay, but the car is cutting out whilst driving, like loss of power or something...i will be...

Just been cleaning my car, and im noticing lots of tiny dents and stone chips on the bonnet, front bumper, and doors. there are a couple of minor but noticable dents on the rear panels, and tiny bits of bubbling paint starting to appear around the arches....maybe im just notice it more cos im...

Seen a Williams1 today at the scrappers.... Bodywork is mint, apart from needing a new front wing, missing an alloy, and looks like its had some major suspension damage - the strut on the passenger side is raised and bent, both front wheels are facing the opposite way, and the rear passenger...

Does anyone recommend any decent clutch kits for the 16v? Gearbox has gone, so gonna get a decent clutch in at same time, so far i have seen: EBC - but was told theyre utter sh1te! AP Racing - apparently excellent BB Tuning Uprated Clutch kit - ? Anyone recommend me anything good?

I think my box has finally died, and am wanting to know what is the best thing to do...should i find a good s/hand one, or get mine reconditioned? Is it a good time to get a new clutch in there aswell? Has anyone done this, and how much am i looking at spending?
