    What mischief did you get upto in school?

    Assault, that reminds me. Friend of mine had a leftover apple from lunch. The tuckshop had a big line and he decided that a lucky student could have a free apple. Chucks it Babe Ruth style but it eludes everyone in the queue and makes it into the tuckshop and onto the face of a teacher. She...

    What mischief did you get upto in school?

    Give us your stories. I was a mischievious little c**t. I treasure the high school memories. Anyway I vividly remember nicking the teachers chair, placing it on my desk at the end of the class and replacing his chair with a standard one. Teacher enters class, looks bewildered but then...

    Harlem Shake

    The exact same feeling from the whole town when this went viral. The head master was largely critisized, it made it on the local press and news. The director of the Department of Education even came out backing the head master citing breach of trust as the reason for suspension. Almost 10...

    UR200 detailed

    Nice! The roof wrapped in black would finish the car perfectly. Liking the spoiler too. Below is my biased take on clio spoilers: GT Spoiler > Sprint Spoiler > No Spoiler > Cup Spoiler

    Opinions on this spoiler on a LY 200

    That spoiler looks like a bathroom handle. Don't like it.

    Simple man wanting a simple-ish clean. Am I on track?

    I'm not goin with lube as apparently (people quoting Bilt Hamber) say that it works well with just water. I might add a drop of shampoo for piece of mind though. I also posted elsewhere the list of stuff I bought and someone mentioned that Auto Finesse Tripple affects the Collinite 476 finish...

    Simple man wanting a simple-ish clean. Am I on track?

    Thanks Matt!! I'm only missing the tar remover and the wheel kit. I will gradually build up my kit and look forward to giving the car the clean it finally deserves. Got to do the pearlescent white justice. I've got some sort of residue on the windscreen after I took the car to the paint shop...

    Simple man wanting a simple-ish clean. Am I on track?

    Bought some stuff after extensive research. Bilt Hamber soft and regular clay (2x 200g bars). Auto Finesse Tripple (polish) Collinite 476 £75 worth of kit and I hear that's relatively cheap to whats available. £375 this month on the Clio and the insurance and service coming up next month...

    Simple man wanting a simple-ish clean. Am I on track?

    Are polishes and wax generic or colour specific as mine is a pearl white? Also I youtube'd polishing and everyone seemed to be machine polishing. Seeing as I don't have a garage is hand polishing frowned upon or is it ok? Cheers, Kieron

    Simple man wanting a simple-ish clean. Am I on track?

    Why I hate cliosport.net...

    I used to spend quite a bit of time there. Not anymore (<1 year). I frequent this site a lot of late and this is by far the friendliest forum. You all must be Canadians! Wish I could attend a meet with mine but don't fancy the drive up ;) I'll be in Nottingham for a month in the next few months...

    Deaks Nimbus 197

    The front bumper would look much better like this: http://cdn1.siol.net/sn/img/12/111/634705296757206592_renault_clio_rs_akrapovic-3.jpg Deffinately need to do the alloys in black. I did mine and it transforms the car awesomly!

    clio rs 200 turbo uk spec details

    In the comments it says that it's being driven on sport mode. Race mode uses the paddles I think. I still honestly don't know why Renault have gone down the full auto route. If they offered both manual and auto I guarantee that the automatics would account for 10% or less of sales. Maybe they...

    clio rs 200 turbo uk spec details

    After watching a 200 going round the Nurburgring I saw this vid and it seemed like something was missing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tyKO4fm5ImM

    Got the bug. A few changes planned (200).

    Don't think there is a market for that over here and shipping them would bare no fruit. They came standard on the 20th anniversary edition so could be rare but I have no regrets. At £35 per corner it was cheap. Now to paint the calipers in red.

    Got the bug. A few changes planned (200).

    I had seen plenty of black and white combo clios on the forum and I must admit that I have been inspired because of those but mine is guaranteed to be the only one for a few hundred miles. It looks awesome. When the weather opens up I'll snap a few propper pics with the pearlescent paint doing...

    Goodbye Black 200, Hello Megane 250

    I sat on a 250 the other day for the first time. There are only three locally and one has popped up for sale. As much as it is tempting I can't justify buying it. 10,000 km (6k miles), Recaros and cup pack £18,500 and registered November 2011 The owner is a rich bloke in his 60's who owns a...
