That’s a fair point. I’ll wait for the Meg bois to offer advice based on experience, but I would imagine if you want it done properly you’ll want a rebuild at the very least, and a forged engine ideally. This would be for both MK2/MK3 engines as the former are getting on quite a bit and the...

Any reason why a MK3 Megane doesn't appeal to you? You'd be able to get a decent one with 5k + selling the Clio.

I’ve heard it also shows you (minimal) info if you’ve got a compatible TPMS system but I’ve not seen this myself. It definitely doesn’t do anymore than you’ve observed. I have thought about getting a microcontroller (after looking at one of those canbus mileage blocker devices and how they...

Well better late than never! I can confirm that a normal bootlid (one without a spoiler) does indeed fit in the back of a Clio, surprisingly easily.

What exhaust have you got at the moment?

215/45/17 - £351 fitted 225/45/17 - £275 fitted Both at ATS Euromaster

Have you had a look on Oreca?

SNR make the bearings (on the ones I’ve seen) so I’d go with those.

My neighbour who swears by rainsports and has always used them, went for PS4s recently as he couldn’t get the rainsports in time. According to him they are much better in the wet. I’ve found them great as well, particularly on an uphill road where the fronts would always spin before. Not a...

At a quick glance, looks like the only difference is that one has Renault tax and the other doesn't!

My old 197 had all sorts of interior trim rattle/vibrate after fitting powerflex mounts, even after they had "settled". The previous owner fitted new OEM mounts on the new Clio and they're not exactly great either. Unfortunately you either put up with increased NVH or more engine movement...

Aren’t there rumours that they’re going to be discontinued soon? If they are, I’d buy the wheels as you wouldn’t have to put that much more money in after selling the speedlines.

It really depends on how aggressive your driving is, how long you’re out on track/how many laps, how abrasive the track surface is etc.

Set 1 - road and wet track: PS4s Set 2 - dry track: any (semi-) slick of your choosing.

You've got Birchdown to the north and RS Four Ashes to the south, both of whom are the closest garages to Stoke I can think of.

Isn't that because the light ouput for LEDs is below the threshold for headlamp washers, unlike Xenons?

Is that a MK3 engine as IIRC 300lbft is the accepted limit on standard MK2s.

Sorry for the spam but one with Autec Wizards:

Any update on why? Are they concentrating on the new Autec wheel that looks similar (I think it was called the clubsport).

A pic of a 197 lowered 30mm without spacers, not the best but gives a better idea of how much they really need spacers on OEM wheels:
