To be honest I am not entirely sure but from what I do know... Standard Cup cars can't be spec'd with Ohlins suspension and Akra exhaust which the trophy and Cup-S can. The only difference between a Trophy and CUP-S is a trophy had Alcantara seats, exterior paint and climate control. All cars...

After selling my Silverstone GP just under a year ago for a mk4 MX5, which to say the least was a very average car, a 275 Megane CUP-S came for sale at a local Honda dealership who are excellent and I did what had to be done:french: All important options ticked, Akra, Ohlins suspension...

Always loved your Silverstone, always made me jealous too, shame to hear you've moved on from it! Had a neb around a 220 Trophy myself a few months ago and thought they were quite a nice, would be keen to hear your thoughts on them and good luck with the new car mate.

Didn't realise you had sold the Clio Matt! Very wise choice on the m140i, my old man old picked one up at the beginning of the year as an FK2 replacement- been in at a few times and you've spoken the truth, an immense engine and a fantastic gearbox both completely understressed,smooth and still...

Mine did exactly same, battery read fine but I changed it anyway to see if it fixed it and it was fine after- never had a problem in the future either!

Had a week off work about 6 weeks ago and went to fill up before I broke up but decided to wait till after the hols, went back after the holiday and it'd gone up 4pence a litre!! About £1.37 for V power here in notts- since I traded the Clio in my fuel bill has halved though :laughing::laughing:

So... Just had a phone call from my best mate and his brother. They've both just been driving the new MK4 Megane on track at Silverstone national circuit. Me and thee best mate have both driven the MK3 Meg and his brother had one for comparison. The bottom line from the both of them was...

Well... after keeping the Clio abit longer the insurance and tax was due:flushed::flushed: absolutely rocketed it did, held off and shopped around, did the lot!! End result, £2300 was the cheapest. Anyway... Ended up looking for cheaper cars to insure, the Clio 200T, Megane RS 275(about 1k...

Has anyone abroad done any performance mods for the new MK4? as I know some countries already have the car. Interesting to see what people are squeezing out of a 1.8 that already has 280bhp! I can honestly see the MK4 being a good track car! The four wheel steering being the key to that. I...

I've been thinking about it all night and it's keeping me awake... The MK4 has the grounds to be a true great hot hatch!Personally though I think Renault have got abit lost in their own design brief- maybe they are trying to recreate the Golf R in their own french way? Why didn't they look at...

Just my 2 pence worth... Had a look at the spec and price list and id say it's too closely priced to the others people have mentioned. Not making any real point here but just my opinion... The Meganes price is a tad too much I think. A Golf R deal will get you one for about 29k brand new, these...

Yes sir!! What a car it was too! Use to surprise everything. Especially considering with the massive six pot brakes you could out brake most sports cars. I remember the look of an S4 drivers face when I flew past him(he wasn't hanging about either) braked a whipped round him on a two lane island...

I can't comment on these for a Clio as I haven't tried them... However, before the Clio I owned a Fabia which was Eibachs demo car so I'll happily vouch for them. It ran these coilovers and Fabia with these coilovers and some other upgrades(admittedly quite a few) would easily keep up with a...

Cheers mate! I managed to get a part number from sport.net and been back to exchange the rads, fingers crossed the proper one arrives tomorrow. Even after giving the dealer my VIN and the part number they kept trying to order it though the Registration number- which turns out they had taken down...

Just the man to ask then!! How did you go about wrapping the centre console?? had a crack at it today but too fiddly around the crease and imevinevitably cocked it up :unamused:

Bit of a marmite mod but it does spruce the interior abit. First time ever wrapping something but it came out alright. New rad should be here Monday so fingers crossed something good actually happens with the car :grinning:

After waiting 4 days for a radiator after mine starting leaking it arrived today. Dealer assured us on the phone that it's the right one. Well, it's not. It's for a f#*king 1.2!!! :worried: Does anyone have the actual part number for radiator to fit a Clio 200 cup with Aircon!? Really...

Rad on order, wallet lighter and an upto 5 day wait to get one. Plus side prepped the car today ready for its arrjval and a good opportunity to do some clean up jobs tomorrow. Just praying it's sunny when it's rolled back out the garage :smiley:

Bollocks. Another day and another problem. Turn on, sound of a tap gargling and running...nursed home to find a pool of coolant :sleeping: Anyway the problem being a split radiator. So she's tucked in the garage for a while till I get a radiator... If anyone has links to a good new radiator...

Some what of a productive week but more problems earthed than first expected First job for the week was new rear discs, pads and abit of caliper touch up. Some decontamination too! Recent winter woes resulted in a sticking caliper so new handbrake cable in, no luck so a new caliper is on...
