    Experience with fitting Clio Cup race car parts?

    I have been looking at the Clio 197/200 race car parts list, specifically at the Cup Race car steering rack and thicker front ARB. Does anyone have any experience of fitting either of these parts on a Mk3 Clio RS road car? I already have Bilstein coilovers, and whilst they are a slight...

    Quick question re rear lights

    I have recently moved to Spain with my MK3 200, and need to change the rear nearside light to one with a foglight. Does anyone know if 197 and 200 rear lights are the same, as all the lights that I've seen available that look like mine, say only up to 2009?? Anyone know? I have the normal...

    Low mileage auction find...

    Found this on BCA today, could be worth a punt for someone. 2012 Pearl white 200 with 26k miles, with Speedlines and Recaros. Unclear if it has Cup pack, but comes with no service history and 5 owners, which is a shame...

    Reasonable service intervals?

    Hi all, Been on the lookout for a last off the line Clio 200 with low miles, and have come across a few, however not been sure what to think about the generally scant service intervals. Most 2012/2013 cars available with low miles seem to have only been serviced every 2 years, with the general...

    Weak syncros may not be the issue after all...

    Been doing some research into the Syncro failure on the Clio, as I've had many performance cars over the years with much more power than the little Clio, and never had any issues with syncros, or gearboxes to be honest. I was struggling to see why the Clio would be different, as normally any...

    Upgrade to Xenon projector head lamps?

    Am looking to upgrade my Clio 200 to the optional OEM Renault xenon projector headlamps, but have some questions. Does anyone have experience of retro fitting these to their 200? 1. Firstly - is it just the headlamps and appropriate bulbs, or does anything else need changing? 2. Does anyone...

    Viewing classifieds threads??

    Quick one - why cant I view any of the posts in the classifieds section? Is there some sort of weird Clio initiation I need to do? :D Mart.

    Gearbox help

    Long and the short of it – I think my syncros are on their way out. My box has the usual refusal to go into 1st and reverse when cold, but is actually a pleasure to use once warmed up and changes are like butter in all gears. Until… high revs. Then it crunches into 3rd, 4th and 6th. I’d like...

    Cheap eBay exhaust - I've taken the plunge..

    Well, I couldn't resist the stupidly low price, and apparent nice build quality, so I've ordered one of the Chinese made Clio RS 200 exhausts off eBay yesterday. I paid £200 inc delivery which includes a centre resonator, so we'll see how it goes. At the end of the day, an exhaust is one of...

    Simple fix for Toyo manifold knocking

    Just recently got into a 2011 RS200, and discovered that it's fitted with a Toyosport manifold which had the dreaded knocking when accelerating from standstill. After much forum research my understanding was that I'd need to fit Powerflex engine mounts to stop the engine movement, with the...
