It's pot luck mate, I paid top money for mine, went over it with a tooth comb and read through the service history. It broke down on the way home. Read a project thread that a lad paid £600 on a none runner put 4 new injectors in and been fine ever since

Unless it's an agreed value, the work involved, panels, paint, labour will easily be over £1k which is more than enough to write the car off. Plus it would be cat c which would devalue it. No brainer, in my eyes. Unless you can do the work yourself and come to an agreement with the lady that hit you

It could be saved but be a cat c at best, for a car of such value its pretty pointless. Let it be written off, get a claim/payout and get another

Cheers mate, I'm sure your rite as I bet they are a load of fun. If I get it sorted I will be attending some of the meets

I'll have a read of the escort when I have time. Nearly bought a mint s2 rst a few years back, I changed my mind after driving my mates 220bhp one, scary to drive as it was all over the road with torque steer and the one I was looking at was 180bhp but sooo laggy it was hard to drive. Then @Mr...

Yes your rite I know it, just really lost the love for the actual car. As you know @Mr Burns it may of been a simple thing that pissed me off, but just thought I'd this car just here to f**k me off. It's my own fault as I like things to be just rite, and I had made plans to get it in and...

That makes a lot of sense, thank you. Yes I've broken cars before, always made money though. But yes you get folk want odd things, 1 thing of a pair, things cheap and then get left with a the shell and bits folk don't want. Regarding want needs doing is soft really, I've bought most the bits...

Engine putting back together, engine putting back in, not a lot really.

OK I'll start with why I'm in this mess I bought a Clio 172 in broke, after 2 holidays i was able to save up buy some bits and get it on the road. So this is a minor problem but been off the road due to lack of funds. So I had a plan but due to another set back it didn't happen. At this point I...

Loving the car mate, really is a nice subtle example. Hope mine ends up looking half as good as yours. On the insurance side I'm now 31 and pay £320 but at 21 I was paying £2700 to insure a rs2000, but I had be banned and got 3 convictions on my licence. When your insurance gets cheaper life...

All good positive comments, thank you guys

Thanks for that mate, they do seem a good car. Strange how they seem to be fetching similar money to the new shape Clio though

Cheers mate thank you. Yeah, cheers dude, just about to order so thought I'd clear all doubts Always one nob head haha, genuinely thought it was spelt rough. I only fit these at work lol.

Cheers mate, thanks. Need to get one ordered, keep spending my wages on Christmas presents lol

Thanks for your reply. I won't be forcing any induction any time soon, haha. Just one of them things, it doesn't feel right replacing it with a different (down grade) item, but yet it's the rite part for the engine. Are the cranks different on the megans?

OK when I removed my crank pulley for some reason it had a woodrough key like the megans. Anybody else seen this as I know they aren't supposed to have one. I damaged pulley and key removing it so replacing them, just wanted some advice. Should I put another key back in or leave without...

Hi guys just after a bit of advice, I want a car for work, something cheap and economical. So DCI Clio's seem to be a good choice. There are a few local to me which I'm going to go look at. I want to know if they are any good, as economical as folk say they are and what to look out for when...

How did your times compare mate

Dammit! You got me lmao

"Hahahahahaha" proof

I'm not bothered by it warren, I find this thread funny

Hence "kind of"

Title says worst driver ever, so you kind of did lol. I'd just let it go if I were you mate

Totally agree, and most the folk commenting have probably never been the ring, totally different experience to a track day "no over taking on the right" even on a track day this happens, at the ring sometimes you'll follow someone that will not let you past so have to pass him on the right. I'll...

Basically, don't let him bother you

He enjoys pissing people off, causing hatred makes him happy, thanks to this thread he's winning. He ain't a bad drive just doesn't give a f**k, let him get on with it, nothing your going to say will do anything

Wow! I give up

Makes me laugh how much hate there is, most of you moaning probably drive round town in your stripped out track cup. Yeah he drove like a bit of a year at time, yeah he probably doesn't give a f**k. A part from the yellow flag, which he may of had a car rite behind him so didn't want to slam his...

Anybody that's been to the ring knows its not like a normal track, at least he was pushing on, worst ones are the slow ones that drive in the middle or off line making it dangerous to over take. Rich men in Porsche's that don't want to let a Clio past. Sorry but I have no real problem with his...

Didn't watch it all but didn't seem terrible, looked slippy and he was pushing too hard.yeah he drove past someone slowly under yellows, no biggy really. I've seen worse driving there! Am I missing something? Something happen later on in the vid? Like I said just looks like someone pushing a...
