So, a new car.
Having owned what i would argue the best hot hatch of it's era, (2006 - 2012) the Clio 3 RS for the best part of 2.5 years i waved goodbye to my 197 Cup at the end of August this year. A change of job into car sales (Seat for those interested) allowed me to weigh up some tasty...
Does anyone know of which drop links are well suited or is it worth just buying new OEM items from Renault ? I have read a few posts on other forums saying the OEM items aren't worth the extra cost ? I have seen these on eBay but not sure if they are any good ? looking to refresh a few bits on...
Took some snaps the other day of my 197 and my mate's MK1 Focus RS; just thought some of you peeps might be interested.....

Does the RS steering wheel insert only fit a FF steering wheel or does it fit the Cup steering wheel too ? The Cup wheel is slightly thinner so if I fit the insert will it rattle ?
Having owned this for nearly 12 months now and 9k miles, i think its about time i started a thread. The car is not heavily modified, its still close to factory spec but i am gradually now looking to improve in the little areas.
Present mods are only a KTR decat pipe and Pipercross panel...
Anyone recommend a decent small vacuum cleaner ? thinking of something which is similar size to a "Henry" but a lot cheaper, ideally sub £40. We've got this Dyson DC fancy thing at the min but its shite for cleaning the carpets in the Clio; the missus sucks harder than that thing.

Not a bad read, love reading the usual bullshit from people saying they're unreliable and the bits fall off.... yawn...
Very enjoyable day and thanks to the kind owners who took me out for a few laps... some great cars on display today.

Had a nosey around a Twingo 133 yesterday and noticed it was equipped with some red/orange seatbelts; the interior on my Cup is a bit dull and thought that maybe adding these would improve the interior a little. Would this be a straight forward process or are the seatbelts fitted in the Twingo...
Having admired the hot Renault's for a number of years i knew it was a field where i would definitely enter it was just a case of waiting for the finances to improve and me finding my ideal spec car. I knew that from day 1 i had to have the Cup model purely because it features a revised...
Hi guys,
Advice appreciated here......
I have seen what looks to be a decent 172 Cup for sale however i spoke to the seller today and it turns out the car isn't reading the actual mileage. A few years back the car had a fault with the dials and they were replaced by Renault and there is a...
