I came across a video of hispanic origin on YouTube a while ago, which was claimed to be a "Clio Trophy" vs something, and it seemed to just be a normal 182 or a Cup...

Parked on Sheep Street in Burford at about 1pm this afternoon, I think it the plate started OV05. Anyone? :wink:

I got mine at 18,000 and it's now on 30,000, and it's loosened up noticeably in that time. As others have said, given the fact it's only done around 10k miles I wouldn't be too worried :)

I briefly get a really tinny sort of rattle that sounded like exhaust / gearbox, as the engine revs up through 3000rpm when I gear down into 2nd, so far I haven't bothered to do anything about it but it may well be that cover then... :?

Has anyone ever modded the passenger window electrics to have auto wind like the driver-side? Presumably it's just a case of ordering the box of tricks that does it for the driver-side (as long as it's not part of some larger system), finding somewhere to hide it and wiring it into the loom...

I reeeeeeally wanted the personal plate "T60 PHY"... I own Trophy 60/500, and T60 PHY spells "Trophy" as the 6 is like an R... but it's not available, presumably because it was purchased long ago by someone who wanted to spell Trophy :cry: How perfect would that be if I could get it? Plus...

Just passed 30100 myself... hope that dosn't mean mine's going to stop working? :? What happened to yours theo?

Going under the railway bridge on the Botley Road in Oxford just before 17:00 on Friday... I think the reg was OY55 UFS... I flashed + waved, don't think the driver noticed, then 20 seconds later I saw an M-reg Williams, again flashed + waved, again the driver didn't notice! ...so it...

Yeah it looks very good... I see him about quite often, first time I saw him I was sat at a red light and heard him coming down the main road, long before I saw him :lol:

Who's that, Rich?

Just had a trawl on ClioSport -> Media -> Clio and as I suspected, the current owner of the 172 is a bloke called Mark who lives near me (Username MARK A). Small world isn't it! He's colour-coded the 2.0 and Renault badges black, and put white wheels on it, and I'm actually surprised as to how...

I believe that's the case with the car numbered 00? Which is the reason there were 501 not 500. As for T-shirts, unfortunately in the current climate of carjacking and theft-to-order, you'd have to be careful about where you wore it and what time of day, because walking across a car park in...

Take it you've got a PC, MrD06? :)

Welcome :) Who did you sell the 172 to btw, I recognise the plate... wasn't a bloke called Mark was it?

No no, I didn't expect them to be... it's just the fact the Permaguard price depends on the condition of the paintwork made me wonder exactly what they do! So in other words damage to the surface of the paint is hidden by the treatment because the polymer fills it in, but if it's gone through...
