    Bluetooth speaker suggestions

    yeah the one I bought doesn't quite have the power to get over the drone sitting at motorway speeds well with the little handle can always get a bungie cord and strap it to the roll cage :laughing: thinking a larger speaker and some way of fixing it in the back for the journey is going to be...

    what's it like for sound quality? I'm not expecting something miraculous from any speaker this size but the one I got form Tesco just sounds like straight dog

    Bluetooth speaker suggestions

    just looking for suggestions on a decent Bluetooth speaker to use in the car where there are no speakers. I don't like wearing headphones or in ears while I'm driving but bought a cheapo Bluetooth speaker from Tesco just as a trial and can happily manage but the sound is so heavy on the highs...

    Front wing NSF Clio 197 Year 2006

    wings can be a little bit of a pain depending on if your plastics are nice or not. there are two white bolts/clips that go along the top of the wing just inside the bonnet area, more of these go up underneath the bit of plastic trim that comes down the side from the top of the windscreen into...

    Swapping Clocks/speedo

    bought a 197 with standard dials and looking to throw my yellow ones in from my 200 have found the thread from the How To's showing easy it is to take them out. https://clio197.net/threads/speedo-removal.9406/ my question is are these just a plug and play thing or would they need coding and...

    Going From 200 to 197

    I tried asking them that, and they said that's not an option it's take the money or take less money and keep the fucked one. dunno if I'm being lied to there. If I could find one identical to mine for the money they are offering I would have taken it. But dunno if I'm being taken for a mug

    Going From 200 to 197

    hadn't thought about the ratios, might see if someone local to me wouldn't mind me having a little blast in a 197. as sailing through the gears on the 200 was , but as you say they are pretty much the same car so might end up biting the bullet anyway

    Going From 200 to 197

Might see if i can get someone to swap my recaros with the standard seats with some cash...

    Going From 200 to 197

    That was my original plan but NFU have a flat 35% buy back cost and not sure if i'd make back the 2 grand difference or not. ideally like to do this but not sure if i'd find another Clio as mint as mine which is the struggle I'm having anyway

    Going From 200 to 197

    So after having owned my Clio for 4 years, a transit tipper decided a needed a change of car. But I'm still firmly in the Clio camp and want to replace this but after nearly 3 months of back and forth with NFU, it seems no matter what I'm going to be left out of pocket after all of this trying...

    UPC Replacement Needed?

    So driving home Thursday I had no headlights. Only dipped beam not working, got side lights, high beam and indicators. Have checked all bulbs, fuses and relay and is all good. Flicking the switch gets the light on the dash so don't think it's a issue with the stalk as putting auto lights on...

    Burning Oil at High Revs

    Took it my garage had to looked at properly, after doing a leakdown and a compression test they advised me is was most likely piston rings. I just coughed up to get another engine put in and it's been flawless since. Might have been a bit overkill and maybe a just a rebuild would have been...
