    Braided Brake Lines

    I got my Hel ones from Camskill. Were cheapest by a good amount at the time.

    Pav's Albi Blue 197T

    Pav you won't be disappointed. It's possibly the easiest to use wax I've ever had the joy to use.

    Pav Chris91 Both technically right. The brand is Blackfire and the product is Midnight Sun. Hope that helps.

    noobie waxing question

    Chris91 while the AutoGlym one is ok the Blackfire one is in a different league. So much easier to use as well. And yes I have the AutoGlym HD wax too.

    noobie waxing question

    I must have 40-50 different waxes. Everything from cheap and cheerful Poorboys Nattys paste wax to Swissvax Best of Show. And my personal favourite is Blackfire Midnight Sun. Just a joy to use, and not extortionatly priced either (£30 from here...

    I did it

    I'll have to disagree 100% with that statement. Simple, clean, normal plates are far better. Having legal plates isn't as big a deal in here (Northern Ireland) and I haven't run legal plates in about 15 years and I've never been stopped for plates, but if I had the choice between normal...

    Will taking Clio off road for a few months cause problems?

    It should be fine. A few months is nothing.

    Middle seat belt - MOT failure. Was there a recall?

    No idea if it's bad advice or not to be honest. I just know that on the tax book it states that my 200 has 4 seats and I assume on a tax book for a 197 it states 5 seats.

    Middle seat belt - MOT failure. Was there a recall?

    Car will be registered on the V5 as a 5 seater though. The 200 is registered as a 4 seat car.

    Middle seat belt - MOT failure. Was there a recall?

    I've no middle seat belt in the rear either, but then mines is a 200 as well. I had my driver seat belt fail on me, it was locked in and wouldn't reel out at all. Had to clip the passenger seat belt into the drivers side holder to stop the beeping when I took it to Renault to get fixed...

    Knocking noise from front left hand wheel area

    When I had a similar sounding problem it was the shock that was gone. -Eddie- had some fun trying to find it too.

    Can't lock my door on the passenger side...

    You should be able to use either side (or the boot) to lock/unlock the car. I regularly use the passenger side door to do this.

    Recommended Jack for FF 200

    The Renault one works just fine for emergencies. I picked on up for £5 from a scrap yard. It came out of a normal Clio.

    Can anyone make this sticker?

    The 'Race Me' sticker? Any sign writing company could do that in a matter of minutes for a few £. The main question is why???

    Hit & Run

    It's a crap thing to do by a colleague (most likely). As for the price it sounds about right if the whole panel is getting painted.
