As posted on FB, this car was the reason I got my RB. There always becomes a time when selling is the only option and even without knowing the figures I'm sure selling as a whole was the correct decision. If you broke down the hours to split and the extra money you would have gained, surely...
I removed everything, was relatively simple tbh. I then replaced with a blower from a 172 Cup, you can only so this on a 182 Cup (not a Cup packed car).
Thanks. I need to get a few dates in the diary for meet ups!
Cheers, I was a little excited when collecting.
Well the hope is the Clio will be good for another 15-20 years!
Thanks Mark. It was always the long term plan to get the Clio to this spec. Really pleased I got it to where I...
December '22 - Back from AW Motorworks
Just before Christmas I collected the car from Alex. I'm so pleased with the outcome. I need to spend sometime cleaning it all up and coating everything but I'll wait until the weather is better and I'll collect from storage. I only got a few pics after...
November '22
Updates on here has been slow, mainly down to life being busy and if I'm honest I'm loving the Caterham too much, however the Clio is near completion. Alex at AW Motorworks has been great, All going well the car will be finished before 2022 is over. I've been really poor updating...
It was a Clio FB group but I can't re-call which one.
Indeed it was based in Lowestoft. Really good chap to deal with, I was going to collect but was really inconvenient however the chap selling packaged it up for me and posted. TBF I jumped on it pretty quick and really pleased I did.
I've been after one for ages also, ever since I knocked my gear linkage locally and it got stuck in gear.
This popped up on FB and I jumped on it right away.
Going to tidy it up this weekend and hopefully drop it off to Alex for fitting.
Update August 2022 - Don't get too excited!
Nothing major to report but thought best to update this thread.
With the high standards both Alex & I are aiming for it was always going to be a slow project. The car is currently back in with paint as there were a few areas Alex wasn't 100% happy...
Good Morning all,
Just to echo a number of previous posts to thank anyone who had any input to the event. Everything was perfect and I had a great day.
I'm awful at remembering names but a thanks to @Mcaff for the entertainment in the pits and thanks for the laps. Also great to meet...
Hi!
I've still not yet sorted my route however after plotting the route earlier I may now travel up on Saturday evening and stay at my mum's as she's only 40mins away. However knowing me, this may all change, I'll keep you posted.

I'll be driving up on Saturday morning from Chelmsford, Essex, but not sure what route you would take I would be looking at:
M11 > A14 > A1 > A1M > A1 > A46 > A15
