CUKTYRESMAY16 gives 10% on tyres (think its only for the next few days). Max discount £100. Just placed an order myself :proud:

Now that spring is upon us , I am itching the get the Clio clean again. Ordered the following : CarPro - TRIX Iron and Tar Remover Valet Pro - Bilberry Wheel Cleaner (1 litre) Chemical Guys - Orange Hex-Logic Pad 5.5" Chemical Guys - Orange 4" Hex-Logic Pad Chemical Guys - Green 4"...

Been using Bilberry juice for a while, keen to see what others recommend though.

Anyone had any experience of these , thinking of the aftermarket pattern part types eg delphi, qlink etc

As above. I have some on my OE system which are 63.5mm, the milltek is 64mm so will need some new ones , checked eBay too ...

How hard are these to change? Replaced these on previous vehicles and they were straightforward, anything 'special' about the 197?

Followed this for a while this morning, looked nice and original

Any idea who supplies these online ?

If you have ever carried out an oil change on the 197/200 you will notice how close the lower coolant pipe is to the sump and in some cases it has started to melt the coolant pipe. What fixes have people got for this ? I see using an old piece of coolant hose has been mentioned to protect the...

As above, whatched YT vids but all they always show is some stationary bouncing off the limiter action along with a run past the camera again banging it off the limiter. I am interested in the cabin noise from the non-resonated, is it loud (agreed 'LOUD' is subjective), does it boom? How is it...

Currently running Redline MTL 75w80 / Redline ATF (mix) in the 197. Noticed due to recent cold weather it can be a notchier than normal on the cold mornings until warmed up. I understand the Redline oil is decent stuff, however are there any other oils i should consider?

Old video, but stumbled across this on YT, long video at 45 mins but very informative. https://youtu.be/gZmYoLswRyw Surprised to learn it can be done for around 5k.

Browsing the ECP website and notice they list the Millteks for the 197 and the current code 'XMAS' works, from a quick search i dont think you can get a Milltek any cheaper than this... Resonated £408 (delivered) (£484 KTEC)...

Recieved my renewal through to the tune of £434, I have tried the comparison sites and i am getting a similar figure. Planning to try Adrian Flux, who else is worth a try ? Annoyingly when i bought the 197 in April, i had a quote of £289 through comparison sites.

Looking for some inspiration, what has everyone else got?

Spotted this and thought it was pretty cool. https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=10153961755297018&id=351779627017 There was a top gear one a few weeks back which was the first one of these I have seen. For those of you not familiar you can adjust the camera to suit you to get a 360...

Think my scuttle panel is blocked again, cleared this in spring this year too, wasnt expecting to have to do it again so soon. Has anyone got any advice (other than staying away from trees) as to how to prevent this happening. Was thinking of some kind of gauze to cover the drain holes or similar.
