    Lower mount/dogbone

    Folks, this is the lower mount on my 133. It seems solid and tight, though I hear that it might be worth replacing with the Vibra Technics mount. Any thoughts/benefits before I blow £115 which I could spend on an induction kit?!

    Fitting a heated seat element

    Hey folks, I bought a heated seat element (2-part, bum and lower back) for my old Jeep. Long story short I never got round to it. So, I fancy it in Le LTV. I have the facelift hence the half leather RS seats, Has anyone done anything similar before I botch it up?! Many thanks, Cleggy.

    Is it a fake tweeter? Great phone\camera mount if so...

    Hey folks, I've two speaker grille type things at the very front corners. Where the windscreen ends and the lush striped plastic begins! In a posh car these would be tweeters but I'm hoping they're just blanking plates? Anyone had a look, and anyone else reckon this would be a good spot to mount...

    Aftermarket 133 panel filter or full induction kit

    Ola! Please let me know if you're selling an upgrade panel filter or a replacement induction kit. I'm tempted by the BMC or Green Cotton panels or maybe the K&N Apollo induction kit. Please let me know price including shipping to UK mainland. Many thanks, Cleggy.

    5W40 or 0W40 oil in Glasgow (it gets cold up here)!

    Sorry folks, I guess this one's probably been done to death but I'm going to do 3000 mile oil changes on Le Tweeng. Just something I like doing and (I think) causes more good than harm (a bit like running Redex in my super unleaded, which I've always done). I'm going for Comma fully synthetic...

    Locking the 133 without setting alarm

    Hey folks, I've studied the alarm manual and cannot figure out how to lock the 133 without arming the alarm. I need to suss this since I park on a busy street and the passing traffic sets it off. Any clues gratefully received! Many thanks in advance. G/

    Renaultspot Monitor - not sure I have it...

    Ola! 13 plate facelift, full fat I think. My manual folder has the usual stereo guide, user guide, etc... I also have a short booklet called "Renaultsport Manual" which tells me to press the top two buttons on the steering wheel control simultaneously to bring up the MFD, telemetry, etc. I...

    Finally, after nearly six years of yearning...

    Coming to Glasgow, hopefully this Friday. Bought and paid for, just awaiting the smiling delivery chap coming up from Evesham. And if it all falls through I got the chaps at Arnold Clark Salford down to £5500 on their red 12 plate. Win win... Sad to see my Wrangler go though. I'll have...

    Waxoiled?

    Folks, I'm picking up a 12 or 13 plate 133 soon. I like tinkering and I have half a can of waxoil kicking around. Could I or should I? This will be the newest car I've ever owned so not sure if they're all better undersealed these days... Cheers! Cleggy.

    Worth paying a premium for SS?

    Hey folks, I have a shortlist of 133's I'd love to own. The money is ready but I'm not prepared to take a massive hit; that said I'm interested in why the SS editions seem to price higher than 133's, even facelifts... I need bluteooth phone and mp3/usb stick playback. Is this excluded in the...

    Nearly ready to buy a 133 Cup. Advice welcome!

    So I'm nearly 40, have two kids (one nearly four, one eight months), my beautiful 26 year old Merc W124 has just been written off hence it's time for a new car at around £5k. It's either a Twingo 133 Cup (preferred), and older S Class or a Jeep Wrangler 4.0. Seriously. Two child seats will be...
