    For Sale - White RS 2010 with Cup Pack 55k - £4800ono

    Hi, We are reluctantly selling the Twingo. It's been an amazing car for the last 18 months, but finishing uni, moving abroad and buying another car mean this one has to go! It has just over 55k on the clock at the moment, Full Renault Service History and has been meticulously maintained...

    General 133 Costs and Reliability?

    I've had the 133 for nearly 18 months now and have put nearly 20k on it doing similar driving to you, so hope this helps. MPG-wise, it tends to return about 35mpg commuting into Glasgow, mixture of motorway and town driving. With a light foot you can easily get 40mpg doing the kind of...

    new chap with a question

    I've got to ask why you're trying to find a bung to fill the holes whilst also looking for a panel filter to help the car breathe better - removing the bung is the first step in that. Aside from that, best of luck with the car, I'm sure you're only continue falling in love!

    Nearly ready to buy a 133 Cup. Advice welcome!

    Hi Cleggy, We've had ours for just over a year now so hope this helps: At the sort of age you're looking at, the relevant change will be 6 years/60,000. Balljoints are regrettably a weak-spot. It's the gaiters that are bad, they split and allow grit into the joints. If you're handy with a...

    Induction kit or air filter?

    I would recommend an induction kit. We got a pipercross viper for ours and it sounds crazy! Will try and get a video for you later, but you can see ours here: projects-progress-threads/the-twins-twingo-t11462-25.html We got ours second hand for £30 - didn't think it was necessary to buy...

    Near the hospital, the Silverstone isn't ours but sits along Glasgow Road/Paisley Road West. I also saw a red facelift RS in Paisley, both of us craning our necks to get a better look haha

    HID Kit

    I think usually having HIDs when the headlights are 'reflectors' rather than 'projectors' can make them less effective - I'd suggest saving the cash and buying some decent bulbs!

    Has this got a cambelt or timing chain?

    We had that engine in our Cooper S. It's not the timing chain that's bad, but the chain tensioner - it was poorly designed and, if it wasn't for some tough Arnold Clark Bashing, would have been a £1300 bill... I'd steer clear unless you know it's just been changed :)

    What shampoo?

    My favourite is Bilt Hamber AutoWash - you only need like a teaspoon in a bucket, it gives plenty of suds, isn't that expensive and it's just really good imo. Here's a link: https://www.detailedclean.co.uk/washing-and-drying/car-wash-shampoos/bilt-hamber-auto-wash-300ml-23
