    Liquid Yellow touch up paint

    I don't know how but I've got a sort of stone chip on the boot of the LY200. I had some M.A.D touch up paint and its a good match, but its very thin and needs a million layers to build the colour up. I'm after a touch up paint that is nice and thick, builds up easily. Any recommendations...

    18yr old Twingo RS 133 or similar insurance ??? Where do you guys go ?

    My lad is coming up to 18 yr old, and is now ready to sell his motorbike and buy his first car. Insurance is the stumbling block. Wondering who you younger guys who have a Clio 172/182/197/200 or Twingo RS133 or a GT are getting insured with? He's got his eye on white RS133 Cups. He's 18...

    Twingo 133 as a Daily Driver?

    Similar to RUdeaf I ran a Twingo RS 133 (non Cup) Gordini for a year and had a 50 mile round trip to work every day. It was great handling, and at the time my other car was a Clio 182 Cup. I actually think the Twingo handled flatter than the Clio. With the Twingo you can properly wring its...

    JMR's LY200

    Update on the Osram Cool Blue Intense H7 dipped headlight bulbs. Got the car out on Tuesday night and the drivers headlight bulb had blown. I'm leaving the passenger side in until it blows. Replaced with like for like Osram CBI again. I guess they've lasted almost 13 months, but the car has...

    What springs are these? Clio 200 (2012)

    I never got round to reporting further on my springs. Poor form sorry Got the orange/orange springs after 3/4 days. Me and my mate stuck the car up on the ramps at lunch time and removed both rear springs and fitted both the new ones in about 15 minutes flat. Easy job. Car drove perfect as...

    What springs are these? Clio 200 (2012)

    Well today the springs turned up that Renault UK technical insisted were the correct ones for my car. Blue/ Orange springs. Dealer has contacted RUK technical and simply asked the question, can you tell me the part numbers for the Orange/ Orange springs and order me two please. They're on...

    What springs are these? Clio 200 (2012)

    Whats a cup spring - my photo or the blue/orange that Renault are getting for me ? Thing is the dealer sent RUK my photos attached above and they seem to have disregarded them, and these pictures are the original springs. I guess they just work to what the computer says.

    What springs are these? Clio 200 (2012)

    Called the dealer who logged a Technical Query with Renault UK for my chassis. RUK say the part i need is definitely a blue/orange spring. Cant say I'm convinced but if I order the orange/orange ones I've got to have them if they're right or wrong, as they're non stock items. If the...

    What springs are these? Clio 200 (2012)

    Well I've just been out and checked the colour of the springs on the front of my car and they agree with what I expected to see. Fronts non cup - blue/ yellow I'm going to call the dealer in the morning and make sure they get me a pair of orange/orange ones in.

    What springs are these? Clio 200 (2012)

    Does anyone know the significance of the little blue splash of paint over the orange/orange ??? I'm going to tell me dealer to order orange/orange tomorrow and want to know its correct. I'm confident I don't have a cup, as the calipers are just silver and the ride height doesn't look like cup...

    What springs are these? Clio 200 (2012)

    Thanks for the offer mate - but I reckon an 11 plates springs are just as likely to fail suddenly as my 62 plate springs. As one has gone I'm expecting its only a matter of time before the n/s spring says bye bye

    What springs are these? Clio 200 (2012)

    I've looked through the other threads on here telling people what colour springs are for what particular model. I have a 2012 (62) Clio 200. Non-cup on standard factory suspension/springs. One rear spring (off side) has broken and I need to get a pair of replacements. Pics attached. IMG_2785...
