They owned the car and didn't opt to buy it back. I bid on it at the salvage auction, but it went for more than I initially wanted to pay. DM for OF link ;)

So it's 18 months later and no update, but there's a bit of ground to cover! I did another round in the Clio but couldn't match the previous PB with the box getting worse and worse - still having to hold it in gear. Went into the winter and I bought a house which suddenly swallowed every penny...

Yeah I think it's likely that it is box related too, but the mounts need sorting anyway so will do that and see if it helps.

Off-road tyres by the look of it!

29.4 kg each. Replaced with OMP seats at 10.4kg each.

Harewood was this past weekend, trying to see how close we could get to @Tonyclio with a standard car. No surprises that the answer wasn't very near. Both drivers broke PBs though, so a pleasing day - the 206 hauled round to 69.90 and I found a 68.64 on the 4th and final run, the other driver...

Just gone through the whole thread - found it by searching for how to rip a Clifford alarm out. I've seen a lot of Clios over the years and I never would have guessed how much work has been done on it because it's tidy and looks a good one. Happy with the buy and probably happier now seeing all...

Bit of a thread revival, but we now own this car - I hope it wasn't stolen or cloned :ROFLMAO: https://cliosport.net/threads/3-guys-1-cup.839571/

So me and two friends for a while ran a 206gti180 as a track and hillclimb car - after an unfortunate incident with a tyre barrier at Croft, we decided to move on from the 206. Broke the 70s barrier at Harewood which for a completely standard 206 i'm pretty pleased with, I previously had a...

That might be my old car, HK54?

I bought a 182 with timing like this when I bought it, albeit not done by Renault.

Agree with most points, except belt. It doesn't matter how many belt changes it's had in the past, only that the most recent one is good. Useful indicator of general maintenance I agree. Don't discount a driveway job, with the right tools it's not a difficult job for a competent person.

I had a fair bit of interest on the 182 I listed for sale, but no offers, so listed it on eBay for a 1p start. Whatever it sells for it sells for - have at it! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/154044598395

Christ, you don't hang about do you?! Will be following with interest!

You can add the little floorpan strengthening sections with bungs in to the list. I think someone has jacked up on there before but it's taken out a big chunk of sill with it.
