    Lumps

    Most of the time it is nothing to worry about. A friend of mine has been to the doctors a few times with similar problems, and it has just been an ingrowing hair. Its good that you have got yourself booked in though, so best of luck mate - fingers crossed for you!

    Parking Article

    That is the best idea I have ever heard. Straight to the point, not sugar coating it. Brilliant!

    Tried to and failed

    That wouldn't surprise me, when I had my fiesta, they tried charging me £120 to change a front fog bulb! The lady on the phone said the whole unit needed replacing, so I said they may as well fix it while they had the car. When I came to collect the car a bloke was going through the work that...

    Tried to and failed

    Normally I wouldn't dream about paying someone to change a light bulb, but as changing the Clio bulbs is nigh on impossible, £12 for them to change both headlights is well worth the money. Its also quite amusing watching the bloke struggle as well!

    225 tyres

    As said above, 225's tend to be cheaper and offer just as much grip if not more

    clio 197 to 200t lux

    When I first bought my 200 I had never actually seen one in person before, now they seem to be everywhere! There is one on my GF's mums street, one 2 minutes from my previous house, and I pass one almost everyday on the way to work - all that in a 3 mile radius!

    4th or 5th for 30MPH??

    2nd is best for cruising at 30mph, instant power when you put your foot down ;) I normally put it in 5th if the road is level or downhill. If it is slightly uphill then i'll put it in 4th. Not sure which one is more efficient though

    @Chris seems like this has been forgotten about, how about a new challenge to see if we can get this going again?

    Legality Of Using Fog Lamps

    My older brother told me that it was cool to drive around with the front fogs on, so whenever I have my lights on I also put the front fogs on. I've been doing it for around 2/3 years now and have never been pulled over by the police for it. So either the laws have changed or they aren't very...

    Considering buying a LY Clio?

    Noticed you're from Needham market, that's somewhere near Norfolk isn't it? Only reason I ask, my girlfriend has family in Swaffham, so we drive down every now and then to see them. We went down the other weekend, I had my car washed on the Thursday before so it was all nice and clean. Got down...

    Help - Creaking/Scraping noise when turning to full lock

    Doncaster diagnostic centre. Based 2 minutes off of the A1. I would give them and Bolsover car care a call. Both garages have a lot of good reviews so you cant go wrong if you went to either one of those

    Help - Creaking/Scraping noise when turning to full lock

    £170 for the part and then labour on top of that is quite pricey. I had both sides of mine done at a place in Doncaster, so fairly local, for about £300.

    Are women really equal?

    We don't have equality in our house. I do all the manly jobs like lifting heavy things, DIY, decorating, gardening, cooking, cleaning. Thinking about it, I'm not really sure what the Mrs does...

    The Grand Tour

    Got to agree with you regarding Clarkson, if i had punched my boss it would have taken years for me to get another job. Suppose that when it comes to 'celebs' they get slightly different treatment. Saying that though, I think all three of them are hilarious together

    The Grand Tour

    I seem to recall someone saying they downloaded something called Kodi and then they could stream it for free. Again, I haven't done this so I could be wrong EDIT: http://clio197.net/threads/grand-tour.54364/#post-603306 Yes, download Kodi and you can stream it for free

    The Grand Tour

    Amazon prime is £80 for the year I believe. But im sure I've read somewhere on here that you can buy a firestick for half the price and watch it via that? im sure someone will confirm this or tell me that I am talking absolute nonsense

    The Grand Tour

    Haven't seen it yet, but will be watching it this weekend. I've got really high expectations for it and cant wait to see it. I still enjoyed top gear, but it just wasn't the same without Clarkson, May and Hammond
