    What did this say?

    Sure it just has the model of the car on, VIN number and paint code - I'll try take a picture of mine when I get a minute.

    Possible Flexi / Manifold Blow?

    Not a problem Suj, we always think the worst with these cars don't we! The joys of Clio ownership lol Fingers crossed it's just the manifold and the car will be back to full health in no time!

    200: Scorpion Exhaust Fitment for 200

    It would literally just be a case of getting the centre section which you prefer - check some videos on youtube of the difference between resonated and non-resonated. Then it would just fit straight on - It's still a great freebie and hopefully the centre section isn't too expensive and you'll...

    200: Scorpion Exhaust Fitment for 200

    The centre section is missing - you can either get the non-resonated one (louder) or the resonated one, sometimes they pop up on here for sale or you might be able to get one from Scorpion direct. For reference: Non-Resonated - You are missing the longer pipe at the top of the photo which...

    Possible Flexi / Manifold Blow?

    To me I think it sounds like a manifold/flexi issue as I have a similar noise and have had a garage look and confirm that the flexis are blowing and the manifold is cracked. The way I describe how mine sounds is like a ticking/tapping noise, it's more noticable at lower revs and get faster as...

    Don't think they're on here, I'm local (Cudworth) and been on the forum a few years and never known anyone nearby. Are you local, not seen any in the area before ?

    Seeking Exhaust and Manifold advice

    My car is 11 year old with approx 78k miles and has only just started having flexi issues so 11 years in my case, however I've seen people with 20k miles on the car having flexi issues - As with most things on these cars, you just have to keep your fingers crossed and hope for the best.

    Cleaning/Polishing Decals on the Clio R27

    It definitely is mate! I know they're not to everyone's taste but I can't believe people actually took the free delete option (on £1050 worth of decals!) I would have to have everything else fully sorted on my car before it bothered me enough and in comparison to yours mine definitely needs...

    Cleaning/Polishing Decals on the Clio R27

    I got a current price last week from RPD as I desperately want them on mine- £150 per Side for the door decals £750!! for the roof I could be interested too, but it would have to be a very, very good deal at those prices.

    197 manifold best buy

    What exhaust are you running ? If it's standard or a non decat system (basically if you've still got all cats in place) I'd be going for the toyosport one, there is plenty on ebay for about £175, this coupled with a few engine mounts is the best long term solution IMO -...

    Tailgate rust bubble peeling - Warranty covered?

    I managed to get mine repaired not replaced through Renault UK a few months ago, apart from the person dealing with my claim going on holiday and not notifying me it all went pretty seamless. Contacted Renault UK through the live chat function, explained the situation and also mentioned quite a...

    Tractor Boy

    Car looks brilliant Mes! Really is such a great looking car especially with all the subtle mods. 100% agree with how modern they still look, even at the side of today's modern cars they still look like they fit in and arent out of place at all. Look forward to more photos!

    New R27 owner, Stockport.

    Welcome to the forum! Car looks brilliant, LY is such a great colour. Bit random but you weren't in the car park near the Travelodge at Manchester Arena on Sunday morning by any chance were you ? Saw a lovely LY R27 parked up, forgot until I saw this post.

    197 Ball Joint and Flexi Pipe

    As above, there are plenty of options - I paid £150 ish per side for my ball joints replaced including parts and labour. I've just been quoted £180 for 2 new flexis welding in (might as well do both at the same time so you know they're both new) then £100 for fitting so £280 in total. That's...

    Nicole ? Papa ! - Clio 197 F1

    Definitely - I thought i'd looked at every hot hatch on the market over the past month or so and still somehow missed this one! Would be great to run alongside the R27.
