    Any ideas what this is?

    Hi, it’s been a while. This bit of wiring got caught when coming off a transporter. Any idea what it is and what it will affect?

    Stripped Clio 200 weight

    Thanks for this. As @LiamP also mentioned, it hadn’t crossed my mind about the level of accuracy since they’re obviously designed for much bigger loads. After some brief reading on the subject… it seems like a bit of a minefield. Meh. :dizzy:

    Stripped Clio 200 weight

    I don’t have Facebook but fair play! Would love to know where the weight is to be found though. I’ve read of mark 2’s getting to around that weight however.

    Stripped Clio 200 weight

    Cheers, just watched this. It’s a shame adding the cage probably undoes a big chunk of that saving but has to be done. :)

    Stripped Clio 200 weight

    On my way to Anglesey on Wednesday I drove past a weighbridge by chance, so stopped to ask if they could weigh my car. Kindly, they did it for free. It came in at 1140kg. Empty of me and bags etc and with around 3/4 tank of fuel. The car is quite comprehensively stripped out with the addition...

    Cheers guys. To update. I actually took the car to “T W & S Barker Renault Specialist” due to time pressure. Would use again for sure.

    Rear coilover fouling wheel arch!?

    Thanks for a quick response and you also answered the next question. Hammer it is then!! I assume the variation is on the chassis structure as they’re all mounting in a uniform position within the existing holes. Unless on second thoughts there is a small discrepancy with where the mounting...

    Rear coilover fouling wheel arch!?

    Thanks for letting me know. Keen to get the the bottom of this. Read about lateral movement in rear beam being a potential cause but not too sure what to make of that. Have a good weekend

    Rear coilover fouling wheel arch!?

    Evening all, I will attach picture from my car specifically on Monday but thought I’d get the ball rolling. I have a clio 200 with AST 5200 coilovers. On the passenger side only there is no clearance, so the rear coilover spring is rubbing on the chassis (see pic for location). Anyone familiar...

    People of the Clio breed. Can anyone recommend a mechanic in the north east who you’d trust to work on a Clio 200 (track only)? Talk to me… :thumb:

    Saturday shake down - North East.

    Thanks for finding that @PITA . Doesn’t make much sense to me personally, but will help discussion when talking to the right person :smile:

    Saturday shake down - North East.

    Nice one, makes complete sense. Is this tried and tested with clios that you know of them?

    Saturday shake down - North East.

    Sorry, more with regard to the benefits/compromises on track. I’ve seen it discussed but still none the wiser from what I’ve read tbh.

    Saturday shake down - North East.

    Interested to know more about changing the final drive? What can you tell me @lewishunter98? :think:

    Saturday shake down - North East.

    Pull that trigger!! Traaack spec for sure. Lol. I’d say I’ve done more than most, but by no means gone the furthest. Anything else you’re thinking about doing apart from ATS?

    Saturday shake down - North East.

    Thanks mate. Took blood, sweat, tears and about 2 years... worth the wait in the end though. Haha
