All proceeds go to saving a poor mk1 from rotting further on my driveway. Go fund me welding edition :p

Yep, I'm testing the market based on as Rich mentions one selling at 40 quid less. Let's see what happens, flol

That's exactly why you have one of his induction kits on it then chap! Unfortunately for community support Facebook these days is the biggest resource so may eventually be a necessary evil, don't worry we're all odd and trolly so you'll be fine! 🤣 Allegedly those land rover clips do a...

That looks like an old hill power induction kit, Nick Hill closed shop years ago although still dabbles in the scene sometimes. He's not supplying parts anymore though. Your best resource these days is join the mk1 1.8 Facebook groups, there's a clique of us over there and we can all advise...

welcome agreed, a nighttime Hong Kong photoshoot would be very cool to see

excellent! having the bill of sale in your name still etc is the icing on what could be a very cool project cake!

glad you are thinking of saving it, be a shame for another to die. looks a good base for a track orientated sympathetic mini resto as well and it'll make a nice thing to sling around Cadwell when all this madness is over. if its a realtively rot free N plate you've lucked out too as they are...

could be keen @Akay depending on dates.....and virus'

Old ones were lethal, crack your knuckles on them every time you pick up your keys

tbh call that a result if that's all it needs, they are after all all 20 odd year old French tin cans now and only got to look at some of the other recent phase 1 project threads to see the horror stories! lol!

Welcome

yeah i used this paint for inlet/fuel rail. didnt even prep other than just wash with some degreaser and a hose 2 x Aerosol Eastwood Aluma Blast Cast Aluminium Look Car Water Pump Paint | eBay then for the bulkhead used this Autoglym Black DYE (fast stain - Rubber Plastic Metal Fabric 450ml...

Where you based, can borrow some et36 15" if you're near Belper area, Derbyshire to check

Slapped on the superleggera

Could be all sorts tbh chap, best bet is to head over to either Williamsclio.co.uk forums or the Facebook groups

I'd definitely recommend a proper plugin to see what's going on

Does your code reader actually read the abs module? You'll need clip or similar to see that side and that's more than likely where the issue lies

My phase 1 172 (2001, 150k, stock bar cat back stainless) - 167bhp My 182 (2004, 190k at the time, stock bar cat back stainless) - 170bhp same rollers, similar temps on the days they ran

Mine had exact same starting issue, was that strap. Strap itself was fine but the mountings corrode. Bolts and bolt holes clean up with wire brush attachment on drill fixed it

Worth removing and cleaning all the earthing points, particularly the large strap to the inner arch near the gearbox. Clean up the bolts and bolt holes too that mount it

Chris' at efi when it was mapped. 159lbft

Some of them are just solid engines, my bone stock internally 172 phase 1 engine with just 197 cams and injectors and an rs2 inlet made 212.

top progress :)

as said on facebook posts nice looking titanium that! just noticed the Williams stickers on your old apprentice days whip......ffs!!! 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Best bet is to remove the spoiler and gentle press the unit out from behind. You can prise it out from the front but risks breaking the edges. Then when the units out it's easy to see the board and remove it

It'll be the board itself due to water ingress. Very common fault. The lights themselves are NLA now so new old stock or good used command a premium if you can find one. However there's a few on the Facebook groups offering replacement LED strips you can fit to the original casing with just...

Had Clio's for 20 years now, longest tenure in the fleet currently is 14 years in July and that's that one as Dan mentions above, I'll be buried in. More pertinent to your post though is my 182, which I've owned since 2012 and run daily since then. She's long in the tooth, got rust issues...

Your odb reader got the airbag ecu reader in it? If not you need a proper plugin

top work, I'm going to retrieve the callipers from the titanium when it dies and get them fully refurbished and think I'll go silver for the oem look :)

you know my thoughts, should of stuck with windy ones as much cooler and in keeping with the poverty spec of a van :)
