Well the Clio was brought out of the garage this morning as the sun was shining and it needed a run.....so after a quick phone call to my folks myself and my wife picked them up and off we headed for a blast around North Wales. Rhug Estate for lunch...amazing and highly recommended, would...

OK I have a little life still left in my tyres all round but not much....so Im going to replace all 4 and hope to sort out a good deal. So what do people recommend? When I replaced the front two last time I stuck with Conti's and they have been good but cost wise they seem to be going up and...

OK I have a £60 voucher to spend in Renault by the end of the month. Had it 12 months after Renault messed up with an issue. Originally it was £200 but spent some of it buying little bits I wanted like the steering wheel trip, foot rest, new grilles (still not fitted actually) wipers and other...

Just wondering if anyone has put smaller wheels on their Clio? Do the Clio R3's that go in the forest use 16s? Cheers Hughsie

Well my little Clio headed to Birchdown Services this morning with my Old Man at the wheel as I had to work and he came home full of praise! The lads completed a full 3rd service and did a great job. My Dad said as soon as he arrived he was greeted and said the lads knew exactly what needed...

Wondering if anyone living in the Chester/Wrexham area with a 197 would meet up one night. I feel like my gearbox has become a more notchy. The car has been into Renault but they have said its normal. To me it doesnt feel right, before it was smooth (I know unusual for a Renault!) so I...

I have a Clio 197 (08' plate) and recently the gearbox hasnt felt its normal slick self. It seems to be very tight and stiff, and when changing gear very notchy. Also when changing up through the gears you hear a clunk noise. To change gear you also have to have the clutch right down at times...

Where has the thread gone about what people have had done on warrenty? Have I seen somewhere someone having alloys redone at nearly 3 years old? Also what else should you look for on a three year old Clio 197? How much is the 3rd year service? Cheers Hughsie

Was travelling down the M6 from Chorley the other week and spotted a Clio 197 with a thick white stripe over it and it was edged in black. If I remember it had a rear cage aswell. It passed and the lad acknowledged me. Certainly looked different and quite striking. Just wondering is it anyone...

All black 200 spotted coming up the high street in St Albans must have been about 3pm? Looked very smart I must say.... :)

White Clio 197 Cup.....parking in Morrisons car park in Royston in the morning. Anyone on here?

After owning the Clio for 2 years now I decided it was time to start using it a little more so a when I headed to London I thought I'd see what MPG I could average. Now on previous long motorway trips its averaged 34mpg at best but this time it hit 39.2mpg....I couldnt stop laughing! haha...

Ok my Clio has the bluetooth hands free kit fitted and I just bought a new phone - Nokia 6700 slide. I have connected it to the car system and set the phone up but when I go into the contacts setting on the car it says empty??? Anyone got any ideas? Is it because the phone is much newer...

Right then my Clio 197 is due its second service - its only done 11k! I've rang Renault in Chester and they want £247 for the 2nd service which I find a joke considering its an oil change and that about it.....so what do I do? I've heard good things about Birchdown so thinking of taking it...

Ok the time has come to get some new tyres....still got a little left on the fronts but with winter here I thought I'd treat myself so the question is what do I go for? Do I stick with the Conti's - they are ok but just wondered if I should try something else? Toyo's? Had them on previous...
