Bit of a long shot but you never know... Does anyone who lives around the Southampton area possibly have an engine hoist I could borrow for a week? Friends car has decided to eat the gearbox (non clio)

Looking at selling my R26 to get another estate car, this has been my second RS Megane and it certainly wont be the last. Its a 2007/07 and has just turned 55k miles with 2 previous owners who've taken very good care of the car, full renault history and not due a service for another 3k miles or...

I have a 97 mk1 clio with a shagged 1.2 diet engine. Iv just bought a replacement 1.2 energy engine from an earlier model. Im lead to believe that the energy engines are stronger built, more reliable and have slightly more bhp. The new engine came with ecu, loom, gearbox, driveshafts and all...

A mate has asked me to do a cam belt and a clutch on his 182. :shock: Rather than do a clutch, and then a cam belt separately, I thought it would be easier to take the complete engine and gearbox out. I have good workshop facilities with a wheel free hoist and a block and tackle, so no...

I've decided to just sell the car after all the sh1t I've been through with that Tom. He's made me so Sick of it all that I just don't want the dam car any longer which I've babied for almost six years. It currently has the POS RS2 manifold fitted and would need to be removed as it's not working...

Managed to get a quick hour down the workshop after work today so finally replaced my smashed up front splitter and upgraded the dogbone bushing! And yes, i know my front bumper really needs a clean and all those nasty bugs removing! Will be on it tomorrow!
