Hiya, Posted in the payment options thread but no indication of what people are paying for these. Renault site indicates figures of £319 per month with £1500 deposit over 3 years. Is this really the sort of figures for a Trophy? I can get in a Golf R cheaper or S3 for approx the same. What...

Sorry for the boring what's it worth thread but thinking about selling up and haven't kept an eye out on prices that these are selling at now. Car is a black 200 on a 59 plate. Standard seats. Nearly 41k miles. FSH but due a cambelt. 3 owners. Mechanically spot on but has a scrape on one...

Not up on the spec of these but may be changing my R26 for one. What should I be looking for other than the obvious (cup pack, seats)? Are the cup cars poverty spec? Cheers.

So decided to try to strip and clean front brakes today (my first attempt at this). All went ok, or so I thought. Re- assembled and went for a test drive. On hard breaking the brakes are what I can only describe as slipping. Plenty of bite and then as if the pads lose adhesion, slip a bit...

Replaced the diesel bore with an R26 as the daily 3 weeks ago. Still getting used to the car and not had a great deal of time in it. Cold wet greasy roads not the best to acclimatise either. Very different drive to the 200 obviously. Got back in the 200 at the weekend and at the moment it...

Can't see any polybush kits available for 197 / 200? Thinking rear wishbone bush in particular which seems to wear and needs renewing on mine. I wonder would there be interest in these if I investigated with a company about making some up?

Hi, Are there any problems with the PM system? I ask because a member who has agreed to buy some wheels off me has not responded to PMs re arrangements for pick up despite visiting the site. is there a problem or am I being ignored? Seems weird as the person in question is a prodigious...

Was swapping wheels over so thought I'd give the front callipers a quick wipe down to restore a little bit of red through the brake dust! Couldn't find brake cleaner to assist and came across an old can of muc-off cleaner lying in the garage (don't ask). This eve brakes have been squeeling and...

Enjoying an evening drive out with the other half last night. Always mindful of speed limits nowadays as on 9 points! Might have 'enjoyed' a couple of roundabouts on the way back and then saw a police car in my rear view. Pulled us over and then gave me a right dressing down for speeding! Just...

Please help. Am rapidly confirming why I don't normally do anything with my cars personally! So you'd think removing a piece of fecking trim would be easy - but not for me. So rear panel is off, but seat belt rail is stumping me. How do I remove this or get the panel away from it. Seat...

Anyone any idea on what this is attached to the isofix bar? Want to remove the bar but something with a wire running from it has got worried!!!

I want to fit some buckets and harnesses for track use but want to make sure I get the safest set up possible. So what's best? Should I have a roll cage with harness bar to mount harnesses? Have read that harnesses fitted to rear seat fixings at a downward angle can actually result in too...

Can someone please confirm these are the correct rear brake pad for a 200 please? http://www.nextdaybrakes.com/info-part-finder?make=Renault&model=Clio&Car.x=39&Car.y=34&engine=2.0000&year=2009 Also I'm presuming this is a quick and simple job to fit for any local garage (don't want to...

My OH's friend has just had her Nissan micro mot'd and serviced. Advisory says slight leak in o/s/r wheel cylinder but garage have said it will be fine till next service. Clueless about drum brakes but don't like the sound of leaking brake fluid. Is this something to be concerned about...

From the experienced out there, advice please. Want to keep brakes in tip top condition for tracking as intend to do a few more days this year. Currently everything standard on the car. Had new standard pads, discs and fluid (ATE super blue) when I bought the car about 9 months ago. Only...

At Oulton Park on Friday with andyi and mates. I have a spare set of wheels with used yoko ao48s on (tread above wear markers). Standard wheels have contis on with 4-5mm left. Question is on a coldish but dry day which would be better to use? Worried that as a track novice still I don't...

Off to wembley tomorrow to witness history. Come on the mighty bantams .........

Well got done for speeding yet again (69 in a 60 on a dual carriageway for christ's sake). Mobile camera. Probably know the answer to this already but I've been offered a speed awareness course having done one already about a year ago. Is the offer just routine for certain speeding offences...

As per title, noted on MOT, I can feel slight scoring on the inner brake disc surfaces only. Any ideas why this could be. Discs and pads only done about 3k miles and 1 track day.

Just wondering as your boys took one hell of a beating by the mighty bantams.
