    How did you choose your Clio

    I'd had enough of my 182, I wanted a 200t. Had to be Lux, had to be in RRG group stock as a mate works for them. I wanted Flame red. The missus wanted heated seats and any colour other than black or liquid yellow. Found the perfect car and drove 120 miles to see it. It was in great condition...

    What pressure washer and lance are you using ?

    I've got a Karcher k2, I bought it on offer from somewhere, I'm not sure where it was. I didn't realise that it didn't come with a variable power Lance, but I bought one off ebay. It works well. I bought my snow foam lance from cleanyourcar.com years ago. I think the injector might be a bit...

    Why can't I find my signature or my member status settings, as in where mine says 'I love lamp' under where it says platinum member. Where can I change that?

    #178 from Slovenia

    Oh man that's terrible news. I was just looking through your pictures and was thinking it must be a rare car as I'd never even heard of the special edition. I guess you'll struggle to replace it like for like, so I can understand how gutted you are. Hopefully it'll be found. Have you had any...

    Clio 200t, tyre skip when on on full lock

    Good to hear you're running 215 with no issues. Have you typed your reg in to an online tyre supplier? Mine came up with the same size tyre as are fitted or the 18" which are 205/40/18.

    Clio 200t, tyre skip when on on full lock

    I really think I'll be putting some wider tyres on when the originals wear out. The stretched look isn't for me. Was thinking of going to 215 or 225 depending on which provides the best speedo differences.

    Clio 200t, tyre skip when on on full lock

    Oh that's OK then. I just wanted to know that it wasn't just my car that did it. Would be interesting to hear what Renault say. My guessing is not much!

    Clio 200t, tyre skip when on on full lock

    As per title really, is it normal for the tyres to skip on full lock when manoeuvring? That's what it feels like anyway, they skip across the tarmac like there's too much lock for the tyre to cope. Anyone else's do that?

    Can I use 225/45/R17 tyres

    I don't like the stretch look of the tyres on my 200t, I was considering going wider when they need replacing. They're 17s too.

    Valentines day

    We're not doing much. It's all a big money making thing by card shops. I'll just get the wife a bunch of flowers and a card. That'll do. She costs me enough as is.

    Any New York "experts" here ?

    I went to NYC in August for 4 nights. Was brilliant. Expensive now though due to the exchange rate. We stayed round the corner from times square. Was a great location. We weren't bothered by the hotel that much as we knew we wouldn't be there much. Definitely go to the 911 tribute museum. Also...

    Clio 200 upgrade up to £7500?

    I used to have a Mazda 3 MPS. Very good all round car, comfortable, very fast and handled quite well. Mine was a mk 2, they're worth a look and they hold their value well now too.

    From BMW Z4 to Rescuing a 197

    If you look at the headlights, they have a grey surround as opposed to chrome like the standard headlights. Also, the dipped beam is in an optical 'dome' rather than a reflector. On top of that, when you turn the steering wheel between (iirc) 6-28 mph, there are additional lights at the outer...
