😄 I have full quarter panels so will hopefully have it put in to above the fuel filler but they'll let me know once they've looked at it..

There is a small amount of rust starting on the filler area and where the bumper meets the panel. They are going to give me a better idea on cost when it's in next week.

Patching this side as below shows unless it's a lot worse when they start chopping away, but it looks fairly isolated. The drivers side will be done further down the line..

Car is booked in for the rear 1/4 rust repair Monday so i made a start stripping it back this morning to save them some time.

Only a small update, hated the plain insert with no numbers! Fresh paint, decal & lacquered, looks much better 👌

Changed the oil, filter and plugs today. The plugs are 8 or 9 years old but only about 8k on them. They looked like they was ready to be changed! All 4 plugs seemed to be not done up all that tight? Seemed strange to me? Correctly torqued up now anyway.

Haha sounds like a win win! 😆 Not heard of using it on plastics before so keen to try that 👍

Took the windscreen wipers off and painted in satin black and done the scuttle tray in auto gym tyre gel to see how it lasts. Gave the car a wash, clay and wax and it's looking much fresher now. Booked in next month to have the passanger arch rust cut out and repaired.

Low miles & belts done, if its got no rust in the common areas and tidy underneath I'd say that was a great price.

I guess aswell as low mileage the condition of the cars - bodywork/underneath is also important when trying to gauge a price? It's about time there was a bigger margin between the rough ones that have corrosion and rust underneath and good clean tidy examples!

So I changed out the steering wheel for a 300mm Mountney steering wheel which looks just as retro and cool as these clios! This was before putting in the garage and starting to disassemble engine parts.. Not going crazy with this as this ones meant to be used and enjoyed but as I've got the...

So I've been putting most my effort into getting my other garage queen cup into more original order including discs and pads all round, wheels powder coated back into silver and general cleaning underneath. This is now being stored at a friend's garage and currently for sale. As I'm off work...

Just hoping to get an idea really. It's a hard one to put a price on! Hopefully I'll get some more feedback on this post.

It was back in 03/2022. Its done less than 1000 miles since then with a renault service last autumn. The winning bid was £11300 + fees
