repair

If any of you have been following the crazy and embarrassing (for Renault) saga that Trophychick is going through with her car you'll be aware of the dead end that they now seem to have reached. For it to have taken a couple of weeks to fix a car is too long, their story has now reached 5 months...

Sorry about the subject title, but i am angry. parked 216 on my parents driveway whilst watching the foot today. when i left it it was fine, but when returning to it after the game i found the following on the passangers front wheel arch!!!!!!!!!!!!! Good knows how it happened, my alarm...

In my local paper there is an artical regarding the bonnet catch failing on a clio whilst in motion. In this case the car needs a £1000 repair. Renault say 'not enough incidents' to prove a design prob :shock:

Hey Gareth, your old steed is up for sale at a salvage yard! http://www.cit-ren.co.uk/

The engine is from my 05 reg 182 and has covered 22k miles, all of which I have put on it. The car has had a full service history at Platinum Renault in Bath. The engine was in running order, however i had Platinum dismantle it as irregular noises were coming from it. Since then i have been...

I was given a spare Exalto for xmas (thanks Dad!), my plan being to have a spare to take to a tyre guy if I need a new one after a puncture. When returning home today I was surprised how neatly it fitted on the floor of the boot, and this got me thinking. :idea: :idea: :idea: I'm...

One curbed speedline alloy. Luckily I video the car before and after as it has happened before at another garage different car and was denied. They marked it with some kind of blue adhesive, hopefully that means they will repair it next time and not say its was already there.

The day after, settled nicely I'm well chuffed with them, HKS Springs, bought off the forum, £150 :D

I've just been perusing the cliosport forum and someone on there reckons that there is a Trophy for sale in the Southern Autotrader for £9,500 ono. Apparently it looks in good nick and has done less than 15k. How depressing is that. I just hope its a Cat D or something! :cry:

Silly question: When putting someone/something in the back seat, my drivers seat flips forwards and slides forward, whereas my passenger seat only flips, i.e. doesn't slide. Is this normal, or is the passenger seat defective?

Got a puncture repair in one of my tyres, and I am not sure whether or not to trust the repair on track? The tyre place that fitted said that they are rated to 220mph and it should therefore be fine on track, but I'm worried that the increased heat and pressure and the increased movement in the...

so then if i get a puncture and use the foam is that the end of the tyre ? or can it still be repaired ...can the foam be removed easily without causing balancing problems...?
