    200 anthracite wheel paint code?

    Hit a object in the road (whoever the hell fly tipped all those rubbish bags should be shot) on the A3 this morning. The wood shattered but left me with a small dink in one of my new alloys. Anyone know the paint code? I'm fuming as I was being so careful with them.

    Behold the practicality of a Clio

    They can get more in then you think. Last year mine had 4 adults and all the suitcases/bags for a week in France/Belgium and drove it there and back. Still managed to get all the extra bags full of souvenirs in too without squashing the 2 in the back. The other girl in the car had a bag that...

    I'll add something my dad told me after my one and only accident a few years back. get your phone and start recording as soon as you get out of the car.

    wiper stalk/ trip computer not working...

    It could be the indicator stalk. When one of the wires that run under the steering wheel and to the indicator stalk managed to snap it played havoc with my lights and my trip computer (I could only scroll up) I replaced the indicator stalk and all was well again (mine first manifested as...

    Had enough with this car: deadbolt buzz

    Mines on nearly 90k now and for 3.5 years I had no issues whatsoever and just did general maintenance and that was it. The last 6 months have been the start of the issues. In fact you can probably find posts in my past stating that my car had been perfect for 3 years (yeah I never should have...

    Had enough with this car: deadbolt buzz

    Had enough with this car: deadbolt buzz

    So few months ago the sound of my driver side deadlock (second button press) changed to a dull thud. Sprayed it with WD40 and it's all good. today I've gone to double press the button, passenger side is fine but the drivers side makes a buzzing sound and, I assume, doesn't deadlock. the car...

    Chances are it's from the dealership but as it has a reg thought I'd see if it's owned by anyone on here. I was the AB197 behind as we approached the roundabout with westgate/tesco.

    Manifold price check

    As 930 said word for word. I love mine and had it heated and bent to give a slightly bigger gap so I only get it under very heavy acceleration.

    Car wont start help and toyo manifold questions

    I just wondered if it was passing excess heat onto the starter motor and overheating it like the older clios suffered. Turns out my fuel pump packed in.
