    Dave's Black R27 #334 - H&R springs fitted!

    Cheers, need have a think about investing next month as it needs sorting! New black badges have arrived, and I've source a couple of center caps and replacement headlight off a couple of guys on here. Debating tinting the fogs yellow whilst I've got the bumper off to change the lights!

    Dave's Black R27 #334 - H&R springs fitted!

    Cheers! In all honesty, I gave her a good clean and clay yesterday (didn't have time to polish or wax) and the paint is a mess with swirls and light scratches, not sure on the best thing to do!! Any suggestions? World's smallest update, but new LED number plate lights make a big difference:

    Dave's Black R27 #334 - H&R springs fitted!

    Well, today saw an unexpected addition. The other day a spring snapped on me, so the car went into the garage for a service and new spring. Got a phone call today to say they could get hold of h&r springs for a good price if I wanted... The price compared to one replacement spring fitted meant...

    Replacement Headlight Help

    Aye it's a full headlight I need. It's actually due to smoke damage I think, due to dodgy fix on the wiring before I bought it!

    Replacement Headlight Help

    Hi all! Today's daft question, are all mk3 headlights the same? Obviously bar the projector/black inside ones, are the rest the same? Need to replace my driver's side headlight and don't really want to spend £100+! Mine is chrome inside:

    It's what was already on the car, and Fernandez didn't have 215s!

    Quick update, these arrived yesterday from Fernandez : Got them fitted today, first impressions are pretty good, although probably the worst weather to try out a set of tyres :D

    Dave's Black R27 #334 - H&R springs fitted!

    After a bit more driving...I still love it! Feels like it picks up a little better now too, although I could be imagining that! In need of tyres, so ordered 4 nankangs from Fernandez, great service again!! Couldn't recommend Cazan racing enough!

    Pav's Albi Blue 197T

    Looks brilliant mate, threads like this make me wish mine wasn't black!

    Dave's Black R27 #334 - H&R springs fitted!

    Thanks Pav. After my previous car, the last thing I want is an issue carrying passengers or going over speedbumps! I think the Eibachs may be the ones I go for! Ideally I would get coilovers, but i just can't justify the cost!

    Dave's Black R27 #334 - H&R springs fitted!

    I think so... Could be an excuse for projectors though! Interesting mate, got me questioning them now! Just looked at your project thread, cracking looking car you've got!! You happy with the Eibachs? Visually, do you notice the drop?

    Dave's Black R27 #334 - H&R springs fitted!

    Hi All! Been a member on here for a while now, but never really posted much! Had the Clio for just over a year now so thought I'd make the effort with her! The 197 was a replacement for my 306 HDi, that wasn't the most practical car ever... It started like this: Then went to this: Then...

    197 insurance - losing the will!

    From reading the comments on here I think you guys are probably right! To be honest I was pleasantly surprised when the renewal came through, having paid £350 additional in November to change from my highly modded 306 hdi to the 197 for the rest of the year of insurance (pretty sure I paid about...
