Thanks to everyone for chipping in. It's useful advice for a country bumpkin like me! Multi-storey it is then.

2010 RS Clio 200 Cup I'll be going to a gig at Birmingham's O2 Institute in Digbeth on a Friday evening in a couple of weeks. Never been before. Speaking to others who have been, they park on the nearby streets rather than walking half a mile to a multi-storey and paying at least £10. For want...

2010 Clio III 200 RS Cup 45k I'm on my second set of Continental ContiSport Contact 5 and they are on course to last about 9k like the previous set. Don't know if this is excessive or not? Car is running fine. Tyre wear is even. My driving is a mix of A and B roads with a couple of big...

2010 Clio III RS Cup 45k So last week I opened the garage door to find a puddle of coolant on the floor. Hmmm... Local garage (gatechangegarage.co.uk in Tenbury Wells, Worcestershire who are bloody brilliant if you are in the area) diagnosed it as a leak from the radiator. They found a stone...

chris mcm New gearbox for my 200 was £2370, which includes slave cylinder. Renault paid half. Clutch was £219 extra.

So finally got the car back from the dealer today. New gearbox, clutch and slave cylinder, new rear discs and pads and handbrake cable! Took four and a half working days. Drove gently back home and all feels good. Generally impressed with the dealer who carried out the work. Only criticism is...

So Renault have been in touch. The gearbox will cost £2370 to be replaced and Renault pay half. I'm fairly pleased considering that my car is 18 months out of warranty, I bought it privately, have never used main dealers and it's my first Renault. Claire Meehan who is Renault UK customer...

Thanks robsnell that would be great as I'm taking mine to the dealer to diagnose the fault. Fingers crossed but I'm expecting the worst!

Thanks robsnell Phoned Renault UK today and was put through to head of customer support who is now 'handling' my case. Car booked in with local dealer for diagnosis next week. Said we could discuss the cost after that. But I'm not hopeful as mine is my first Renault, a 2010 bought privately and...

mark200 any progress on this? I've got the same problem. 2010 car and similar mileage. Would be interested to know how you have got on. Cheers.

Thanks. It's just over an hour from me. Could be just what I'm looking for.

Hi all, During the next 12 months or so my cam belt will need changing. Can anyone recommend a decent garage? Can't seem to find any recommendations on here on elsewhere online. I'm based in Shrewsbury, Shropshire so would be looking for somewhere in Shropshire, Worcestershire, Herefordshire...

Might not be any help because it was 12 months ago but I bought my GW 200 cup 60 plate with 29k miles (recaros and speedlines but no air con and toys etc) for £8500. Would also strongly recommend removing any mods as stated above. As someone who has never modded a car at all (like lots of...

I was the one from Shrewsbury with the white 200 with the black roof. Can't work out how to change my profile pic!

I'm in Shrewsbury so only about hour and a half from north Wales, Bala and evo triangle etc.
