After the ridiculous quote from Torqueflow, no reply from MIJ and multiple failed phone calls to Longlife I eventually got through and got a quote! £60+VAT agreed on the phone and the car is booked in for Saturday 21st April! To be fair to the bloke at longlife B'ham it sounds like he's there on...

Not sure if you might be mixing up 2 races there? Australia was dull, yes. However the Hamilton/Verstappen 'dickhead' comment was at Bahrain - which was a fantastic race. IMO Verstappen didn't give Hamilton enough room and the comment was justified - fairly play to Vettel for his defensive...

I don't find there's all that much taste difference when it comes to having coffee with or without milk...I think a lot of it is psychological in the colour difference. Black is slightly more bitter, half a sugar will help take the edge off. I have a coffee machine at home and make one (with...

Looks like these guys are just around the corner (literally) from Torqueflow. Thanks for the recommendation I'll try and get in contact with them for a quote

Spoke to them on the phone rather than in person. Not sure specifically who it was I got on the phone. He reckoned they've done a few Clio's and started with £175 then said they could probably do it for £150. Told him that was about double what I was expecting and he mentioned "quality job"...

So Torqueflow is unfortunately a no-go - they want £150 for the silencer delete!! £100 might've swayed me due to their rep but £150 is really pushing the boat out.

:flushed: so there's 2 of you out there with concourse-clean Clio's putting the rest of us to shame! :thumb:

Yeah they do seem to be exceptionally well rated and they're only a few miles down the road from me. I tried to call them yesterday but reached voicemail and I've asked for a quote via their website so just waiting for them to get in touch now. I think they're closed Friday's so I'll ring...

15K doesn't sound like very long to me if you're consistently driving fairly sensibly (e.g no spinning up the fronts or screeching round corners everywhere). I guess it depends what sort of miles you're doing but fairly sure I was getting more like 25K out of a set of Eagle F1's...

OZ Ultraleggera's absolutely make a Clio - look fantastic

Looking to get the center silencer chopped from my 220T very shortly - I'm based in Solihull so looking for any exhaust specialists/garage recommendations around the Solihull/B'ham area. A friend recommended TipTop Exhausts on the Lichfield Rd, but despite generally good reviews online there's...

This sounds spot on for a quick wash. Personally I'd change Step 5 and instead of drying, use some sort of "Rapid Detalier" that you can spray on wet, and just level off with a microfiber - "Dodo Juice Future Armour" looks impressive. I'm in the same scenario I've always used the local car...

Mine used to whine quite a bit, to be honest, when it did, it actually drove much better and didn't seem to have to cold start issues. Never assumed it to be an issue, and nothing ever manifested from it.

Ah velcro sounds like a good shout. I'll have to get you to drop me a link when I'm ready to buy :) Loving 220 ownership so far, it really is exceeding my expectations. Had a little panic moment with the alloys myself when parked up at work one day last week, got out and saw how close I was to...

Oo that footrest looks great! Real shame it didn't come from factory to be honest, especially on a Trophy... It'll probably have to be on next months shopping list for me as I've decided the center silencer delete needs to come first, itching to get a little more noise from the exhaust. How...

Not much in the way of 'progress'... it's only been a week and a half after all :expressionless: .. but a necessary purchase for me - some Thule Roof bars. After some totting up of various discounts I was able to pick up a new set of Black Wing bars, with the feet and fitting kit, along with a...

It's cost effective to do both at the same time. The slave isn't hugely expensive and you can buy both as a kit. In my 197 the slave failed before the clutch did.

Sounds like nothing more than unfortunate timing with the box but at least know you've the peace of mind it's sorted now. Personal preference would be red or silver calipers, black calipers behind black wheels I think would feel too hidden - show those Brembo's off!

Cant wait to get this done to mine! Sounds awesome :excited:

@Beany that's how it begins, then you exchange a couple of messages with @Micah and before you know it there's a Trophy on your driveway! :tearsofjoy::tearsofjoy::tearsofjoy::smirk:
