He builds them for people but made the first one for himself until people started asking him to make em for themselves. He has made 17 in total (although some where supplied as kits and not fully made), there are 6 road legal in the UK, 2 road legal in Germany (2 also in Germany but only used on...

190Bhp motorcycle engine, 0-60 in 3.5sec changes gear with a clunk lol

Did a photo shoot with a guy who builds his own F1 style kit cars and we needed to put the videographer in the back seat, so the airbox came off and went into the back of the Clio! And one of the car with my cameras...

Found the problem, the radiator had come loose and rubbed against the pipe causing a split pipe. The parthas a 10-day wait so it was been bodged with a similar sized pipe until I can get my hands on another one. They tightened up the radiator and all Cost £40 incl. Labour. It does actually run...

Never had a sensor there, if there should be one, it hasn't made much difference since owning it from 2010! Have removed the cable tie and tightened the jubilee clip, it's mad a tiny bit of difference but will try and get it to the garage as soon as I can.

The silver fastner thingy, should there be one on either side of pipe? Or just at the top? It might not be it but it was loose and at the bottom. The top has been secured with a cable tie oh and the tape is as there was a split there (trying to temporarily problem solve!!)

This basically describes it, and it has lost all 'performance' it simply drives now, the hiss is like an added sound effect lol I'll get it up on my ramps on sunday and have a look :)

not on idle, you get the occasional 'poof' out the back from start off but nothing continuous.

Pardon the noob comment, but would that just need a new hose or a whole new turbo? And, no I haven't been to Dingle tunnel but think it's on the cards later in the year as I know someone who knows the person with the keys. Hardly do anything nowadays anyway, mainly stuff in Gibraltar or work on...

Hello, I have been doing a lot of miles in my new job, a lot involves getting to places as quick (and as safe) as possible. This has resulted in many things my local garage has fixed but now I have got no boost (1.5 DCi 80) when accelerating, just normal acceleration. But I do get a hissing...

Clio went in to check on brakes/coolant leak/whistling wheel and the call back came with a list of stuff! New brakes - discs and pads, front anti roll bar links rubbers dropped out, PSF calliper sticking, rear shock absorbors leaking, slight water leak in the radiator (which they will plug for...

Or a shotgun, that said, you'll still have a wet carpet lol

Not sure if you remember my Christmas post but I had a major leak (which turned out to be the central scuttle pipe) which filled my drivers side with water. I initially cleared half a bucket of water. I asked on here how to dry the carpet out and most advice was to remove the seats etc but as...

That'll do, thank you :)

So I need to get my windscreen replaced due to a crack but my rain sensor is pretty much cemented on as it never worked very well. Mine has the part number 8200063060B but I have seen the same part number with letters A and C, do the letters matter? As some are twice, if not 3 times as cheaper...
