Renault finance themselves.. the dealer is only interested in selling you a car, or taking money off you some other way! :( No matter what finance deal, there will be some way of 'getting out'. Rich

I'd advise you call them up and explain your situation... they can give you your options over the phone. Rich

Do you not find the steering changed after fitting spacers? especially over bumps? Rich

I agree, but I've only got one and not married.. :D The wheels look awesome in the flesh and I'm so glad I went for them. Rich

I'm confused by the whole later 200 spring debate.. from my understanding, the only difference is the later 200s have a different shok top mount, so coilovers and dampers will not fit. You can fit the older top mount design to work around this issue. As for the spring, these sit between the...

.. that's a good price I think..

Drilled and/or grooved discs are a complete waste of time, the negatives far outweight the positives on a road or occasional track toy. Race pads aren't necessarily 'the best', you need to get the right pad for the job. i.e. a road car generally needs cold performance over outright tempreture...

As far as MOT goes (although you're not concerned) from my understanding the Clio will pass an MOT on the pre-CAT alone, which is in the downpipe. So, I guess with emissions not eing a concern, the only thing to consider is sound.. or volume. I'd imagine a decat will be louder (when cruising and...

The general public wouldn't be paying £150, so yeah, if that's what you paid then that's good value. If it's nearer the £400 range then I'd like the exhaust to be designed and tested specifically for my car. Unless there's some crazy restriction, I don't believe there is a huge difference...

I was 33 when I renewed my insurance with 3 points and 9 yrs NCB.. had to pay £700 FC with a £300 excess. Considering I was driving an Alpina B3S (which is rare as rocking horse poo) and over 300bhp and insuring it for £630 FC the year before - it's a bit crazy. We should have the US system...

Not sure if I agree with that brightside.. Have you seen inside a tyre after that foam stuff has been used? A tyre garage will tell you it destroys the tyre and you MUST buy a new one. In reality, it stays as a runny liquid unless it gets to fresh air and can simply be wiped clean with a cloth...

Just going back to the KTR remap... did you notice any difference in MPG at all since having it done? Rich

Most people go for the 40mm H&R spring as the drop might not be that noticable on a CUP chassis car. Worth seeing if anyone has a picture before buying.. I think all springs fit OK, it's just the coilovers and shocks that have a problem as the later RS200s have a different top mount I hear. Rich

Yeah.. it was an option.. I added and removed it several times when specc'ing up my car. I left them off in the end as it was already looking pretty chav-tastic, thought I oculd add them at a later date if I fancied them. I think you have to drill into the sill to fix them? Rich

lol I do that too... If it's a little dink without paint damage you can probably get a smart repair done prettyc cheap. Rich

Don't put silicone anywhere near visible paint.. it'll eat into your paint :( Rich

edit: doh. Rich

I thought the RenaultSport sport guy said there wouldn't be a new RS Clio until right at the end of 2012 at the earliest...? Rich

When I put a small battery in my Nissan 200sx after fitting a huge intercooler, I just bought a Nissan Micra battery. Half the size and about £32 new. Never had a problem... Just make sure you get the right terminals connections, but if you're putting it in the boot, then I guess that doesn't...

That is pretty shocking service by Renault for not explaining what the problem was better. There's a 'failed starter' or a 'broken wire'.. they're not the same thing when you're talking £250+ for get it sorted. Glad you took it elsewhere and have it fixed :) Rich
