I'll give you a bell Fletch and when you get your Clio sorted we'll do the headlights for you. It will be like the silver arrows with you, me and Chris out on track lol.

I dunno I post pics up on Facebook of my seats and people suddenly discover what I'm doing. I will start a project thread when the work begins as at the moment I'm accumulating parts. The budget for the whole project has been set at £2150 after the sale of the Elf. Wonder how much over budget it...

Great meet tonight guys. Ollie thanks so much for the demo and for helping to write my wish list, although I may have to forget the new bathroom in order to afford it all.

Still waiting for a lift to pick the Clio up from Romsey. So may be a little late and not sure what I'll be driving.

Less than 3 days to go now and reserve met. 207 watchers and nearly 3000 views. The Ph1 budget pot is growing.

Hope to be in the phase 1 depends on if my mechanic has it ready in time. He's doing the cambelt and water pump tomorrow or Monday. If not I'll be in the Panda.

Could be interested Tom as looking at putting something in.

Chris I need to talk to you about aerocatches.;) Thinking about putting them on the list of things to do.

Looking good and think the cage looks great. Looking forward to seeing this in the flesh and steal some ideas for my build.

What can I say, the ph1 for under a grand has to be the bargain of the century. Reminds me must ring the garage to see when mine is ready. Have loads of parts to order soon.

Done

Cheers Paul, left it with my mechanic and he's doing a cambelt change for me as well as looking over the car and putting the reader on it. Just got to hope that the Elf meets its reserve as it's funding this project. Need to make sure that it's reliable and forget that its French.

Even more confused now as I lef it for a day and went out to start it which it did first time. switched it off and then started it again no problems. Locked it up and went back 5 minutes later and unlocked, put the key in. turned it and it bloody started again. This evening went out and tried...

Re: South Central Christmas Meet Tuesday 18th December I could do Monday as I'm on leave that week

Have decided to sell the Elf as have only driven it 40 miles in the last year and now have a new toy to play with that needs funding...

Cheers for the comments guys it is certainly a good basis and will be looking at doing a few mods like coilovers, seats and possibly a cage. Need to do some work on the brakes and an engine mount. Although need to sort out an immobiliser problem at the moment. Got home tonight and it now won't...

It happened, sat about thinking what do I need a car for. Working from home has changed my reasoning about cars and decided that I didn't need anything decent as the most I use the car for my work would be 10 miles a week if I'm lucky. So plan starts to hatch. Track car. Then I saw the advert on...

No problems with that it is the one at Chandlers Ford. See you at 7.00

Nice car mate and avoids any reference to it's a ladies car. If it handles anything like the Panda you must be giggling all the time. Would be interesting to see it in the flesh as it is in my fave colour.

Was going to mention French electrics but wrong.

Not if you are using the bodyshell attached to the numberplate. There used to be a % number when building one car from two but don't quote me on that. As the engine change has been declared to DVLA I would imagine that it would be kosher on an HPI check. Looks like a good job has been done on that.

Check out the South Central thread as there are some meets coming up. We're a quiet bunch and welcome newcomers even if you don't drive a Clio.

I'm sure the usual suspects will meet up there at about 7.00pm

I'm in London next week so count me out.

May be up for this as I will have finished my training and am permanently based in Southampton again.

Would require a whole new front end can only see it as an option if you are repairing a Phase 2 and have a whole Phase 1 as a donor.

Have to give this a plug as it is taking up valuable space in my drive at the moment. My son has his Golf up for sale and may appeal to someone on here. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-golf-1-4-16v-2000-euro-slammed-bbs-lowered-/251185170855
