    Just a quick one, I've replaced my clutch and got a new gearbox from Rich at Rentune. The 6th gear I asked for a longer ratio out of a different box, and Rich obliged - I now get 35mpg on the motorway!!! If you ever need a new box (3rd was going on mine) then I suggest you do something like...

    Front headlight change

    I have had LED bulbs (still looking for projector lenses for not much ££) that seem reliable so far! https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07BHLRTPM/?tag=clio197-21 https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07M993WJY/?tag=clio197-21 https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07Z8MXR3X/?tag=clio197-21 And any...

    I’ve also had a go at the headlights which are also terrible. I think the bulbs were the cheapest possible Halfords own brand!!! There’s a useful list of what bulbs you might need here; https://www.autobulbsdirect.co.uk/renault-clio-hatchback-2008-08.html I bought some amazon leds, knowing if...
