Went through the MOT the other day. All good. Just the headlight bulbs were way off in alignment so techncially failed then sailed back through. Drivers side front tyre is losing pressure each week, has been checked but couldn''t find a puncture or anywhere where air is escaping. Needs to be...

It's been a while. All been good since the MOT - did have new crank shaft/temp sensors fitted whilst in was in. Not quite sure what I'll be doing with it this year as I'm leaving in May to travel Europe, then hopefully onto Asia to teach so it's going to need a new home. Tis possible I may be...

It was the Humber car show.

Would have been as only 5 mins away from me but at Leeds fest again. Go KC stadium last week? Was showing there.

Cheers! Haha, yeah I love them ;) Bit different to the 'norm' on here so that's fair enough!

Couple of yours are in the next batch to upload.

Just ticked over 70k miles so time for cambelt/water pump. Not starting very well lately, well... didnt even start tonight after work for a while. Had to roll it forward and pump the accel and finally spluttered into action with the added enjoyment of the engine light on. So errr not sure...

Haha yeah it's annoying! Never seen anyone do a couple of these bits before.

Aerial and base cc'd. Inside buttons cc'd. Whatever you call this cc'd. Guessed the theme yet.. Speaker covers cc'd. 3rd seat bit cc'd. Grab handle cc'd. Erm..and these bits.. Just need to fit the grab handle/visors. Absolute arses. And a piccy from a warehouse near Blyton. Clio...

Not for a few days unfortunately :pensive: My internet's then got to cope with uploading them all 😊

YX05? Yeah got a few of that :) Looked great!

250+ pics coming. Soon..ish lol. Never done pictures at a track so bit of a learning curve. The Trophy was by far my fave so quite a few more pics of that car in here haha.

Surprised there wasn't more cars really. If turborenault weren't there would be a tad quiet. Decent day out though :up:

Prep done for tomorrow. Sort of. Decided to piss it down half way through. Popping to the garage in the morn to see if they're open and grab the interior bits, if they have Ill be fitting them at Blyton :grimacing: Clio by Simon Hubbert, on Flickr

So she did Goodwood this weekend. Fair ol' journey. Was around 600 miles over 4 days which is the most it's ever done. Amazing show, really really good. New clio and meganne look awesome, 30K is a bit out the price range though lol 😅 Will deffo go again, maybe in a few years. Only...

Yeah that's where I got mine. local fabric shops will have suitable bits too. It can be done, but would be a more of an experienced/professional job I think. I'm not a huge fan of flocked stuff so did wonder myself. Seen a few show cars with it and it does look ace. Just requires stitching in...

Cheers bud! It's a tad time consuming but the end result is defo worth it! Although it becomes one thing after another 😅 Headliner was 1mm thick. MUCH easier than the cheaper thin black material I've got.

Thanks, means a lot :) I've decided it's going nowhere this year, plus it's shortly coming upto the cambelt/timing belt change so doesn't seem worth it. Maybe a few small bits ;)

Didnt get to go FCS in the end as the service/work took longer than anticiparted. Bit annoying like. Anyway... Service done+alignment. Few more bits done by the bodyshop. Colour coded washer jets + aerial + base. Arch lips rolled and filled. No more rubbing on the back now. Few more small...

So a quick summary of last week's work carried out. Colour coded lower grill. CC splitter - tidied it up slightly as wasn't put on quite right. New front headlights fitted. CC washer blanks/fitted. Smoothed/resprayed back bumper panel/debadged. Rear wiper removal/smoothed blank. Some more...

3 pics from Mod Nats over the weekend. Will update recent shenanigans in next post.. Clio @ Modified Nationals 2016 2 by Simon Hubbert, on Flickr Clio @ Modified Nationals 2016 1 by Simon Hubbert, on Flickr Clio @ Modified Nationals 2016 3 by Simon Hubbert, on Flickr

Cheers bud. Yeah had a word with them and it's possible to do, but apparently easier to source one that hasn't had any 'treaments' applied before as wont work as well. So scrapyard it is oneday. Haha yeah pretty pleased with them :) Bit different! Spacers back on the front, probs should have...

Spent today cleaning her up ready for modnats on Sunday. Clio by Simon Hubbert, on Flickr Sprayed these bits on the wipers hiding the nuts. Half tempted to see if the bodyshop can do anything with that piece of plastic across the car, or to get it dipped, as does look a bit pants. And the...

Sample of fabric ordered from the bay today. Slighlty thicker than the stuff I'm using as I'm pretty sure it'll be hell to do as really thin. Trimmed the bottom part of the handbrake. Took 4 parts of plastic trim either side of the seats at the front to do aswell. Plus few more bits removed...

Looks like the same stuff I'm using. It's a shade darker than the oem bits as they're more a dark charcoal. Did you manage to do the surround with one piece, no stitching? I've removed it but can't see how it's possible as the fabric will warp too much round the corners :( Also figured out how...

Cheers fella, they're a bit tricky! But after doing one the other was far easier. It's just trying to get it as neat as possible and not breaking the clip inside 😅 Headliner is now out ready to be fabric'd. Shame I dont have enough lol. Buying more this weekend. 1 week till Modnats/2...
