Just to give everyone a heads up regarding the front radiator support and the corrosion they seem to be susceptible to, if you are considering going to your local Renault dealer for an inspection of this part and hoping to have it covered by the anti corrosion and perforation warranty then do it...

Cheers guys. I didn’t need to message him about anything I was just browsing the forum and noticed he hadn’t been active and seen he was last on in September so thought I would make sure all was well!

Certainly for the time being! Once I had it all cleaned up on Saturday for the viewer I was close to cancelling him lol. More than happy to keep hold of the car and as I had said before I hadn’t even advertised the car anyway so nothing lost :). The Cupra R which is for sale is lovely. 5 door...

The Clio stays! Viewer fancies a Type R more so the little French lady will be staying with me for another while :). Now need some tyres which will stand up to winter better than the AD08r did last year!

Does anyone know where @Chris has gone? Was just browsing and noticed he hasn’t been online since September 30th!

There is a possibility still of making the get together! I just need to confirm the date my work night out is when the boss is back this Wednesday! It would be great to catch up for sure - is Chris going also? On a side note I could very well be back in a Megane anyhow Jon! I’ve been looking...

Viewer came today and did seem to like the car after a test drive, haven’t been able to agree on a figure as yet but who knows! :) Have it a clean in prep of the guy coming to view...

Not really a crime worthy of ending up in the back of an ambulance, surely? :poke:

So there is a viewer coming to look at the car on Saturday. I haven’t advertised the car but the fact I’ve been making noises about parting ways with it for quite some time has alerted this guy and he is interested in the car. I don’t feel I ever gelled with this Clio properly. I’ll update the...

Welcome along! I thought that Stages of tuning was only talked about in the turbocharged world... What does Stage 2 on one of these consist of?

I went all of last winter with a set of AD08r on - never again. I’m going to go for a set of Uniroyal Rainsport 3 this time around and pop them on to a spare set of wheels I have. As Turkie says, the Laguna Silverstone wheels are a good shout.

I must try the PS4 having read various reviews. I was going to go for Uniroyal Rainsport 3 as a road tyre this winter but after reading this thread I may pay the extra for the PS4. I have ran AD08r on my Clio from last August and they are grand in dry, not too bad in wet but as mentioned above...

I fitted a KTR decat and Exhaust to my 197 and hated it from day one. The flat spot was horrible and the drone from the exhaust would have made your ears bleed. Swapped it out for a Akrapovic and never looked back. Night and day in terms of sound etc. Loved it so much I bought another for my 200.

Ah that is awful mate. I hope they do get to the bottom of it. I remember reading about the first op earlier on this year and thinking how difficult it must be. As a petrolhead, the loss of sight (and subsequently not being able to drive) would be my worst nightmare. The fact that there are...

I like the analogy Jon! I’m sure I’ll be grand after a day or two, just can’t catch a break it seems! Hope things are good with you and the good lady!

It’s something I should maybe look into then. I do have a Chipex touch up and have touched some small stone chips up with it and the match is excellent. Did you pick the car up then? They certainly are but I really need this fixed, it feels like a Cat C to me lol. I almost abandoned washing the...

I’m a fussy man and have always completely dismissed smart repairs! I will probably calm down again in a few days. Thing that annoys me more is someone knows they done it but no decency to leave a note etc.

So bad luck strikes again for the Clio and yet again I’m questioning the future of the car. Fortunately for me none of the issues or bad luck I’ve had with this car have been mechanical, all cosmetic. I came across this damage today when cleaning the car. It looks like some inconsiderate rat...

Think it’s just the Clio 3 GT Line.

Welcome to the forum! The wheels on that example are enough to put me off, OEM wheels are much much better! There is a buyers guide available for paid members, plenty of info there and it’s only £5 to become a paid member. You also get access to the classifieds and “How To” section.
