Alright Folks Im New To This Site But Heres A Quick Story On My Project
I Bought It About 5 Months Ago Its A 2003 1.2 16v Dynamique Billabong In Black.
I Payed £1500 For It which Is Very Cheap But The Car Had Been Sat For A Long Time And Had A Few Problems, As Most People Are Aware Some Of Them Had The Problem Of A Leaking Sunroof, As A Result Of This The Seats Were All Mouldy So I Replaced Them With Some New Ones Off A Clio Extreme (The Red And Grey Ones). I Am Going To Post pics Tonight As I Am At Work. Other Stuff That Is
The Car Had Speed Stripes On It So I Removed Them But,The Person Who Owned The Car Had Sprayed Up To The Stripes So The Car Had To Be Resprayed.
There Was The Original Back Bumper On The Car With A Horrible Skirt Badly Fitted To It. So I Removed It And Swapped It With A 182 Bumper
Alot Of Parts Had Beed Stolen From The Car Because It Had Been Sat For So Long Heres A Short List
Headlights had been removed
Front Grill Had Been Stolen
1 Alloy Wheel Had Been Stolen(17 Inch Tsw Wheel) Which I Managed to replace and now have 2 spares.
Full Exhaust Had Been Stolen Which I Also Replaced.
When I First Got The Car It Was Very Chav , So My Project Was To De-chav the car and I Think im nearly there now i think. The Car Still has its rear window tints and some side skirts which i kind of like but it still has lexus rears which I hate. Oh And it has also been lowered on springs I think.
Im into my sound systems so i have fitted a new head unit with a 7inch screen on the front and i have also made a custom center console which now houses a screen which plays dvds from my head unit.
Theres is still a few problems with the car which i have left to do which is where you cliosport members come in as i need you help.
The engine is very tappy it may need new tappits but im not sure about engines.
Airbag light is on but that is because i replaced the seats.
Engine Management light is on but not sure why that is because apart from that tappy engine the car runs fine.
Oh And The Heaters Have Stopped Working, I Have bought some Dials And Gonna Replace Them To See If That Is The Problem. Does Anyone Know About Heaters As I Havent Got A Clue.
I Am Gonna Post Pics Up Tonight For You All To See And Let Me Know What You Think. Another Reason For Posting This Is Because I Wanna Know How Much This Car Is Worth As It Stands As I Have Started College Now And Also Work Full Time So Im Not Sure If Im Gonna Have Time To Finish This Project Off.
Thanks For Reading My English Is Rubbish So I Apologise In Advance.
