Sticker should be coming off tomorrow!
The keen eyed might notice the drivers wing mirror smashed off and cling filmed too, was like that first thing this morning :(
Screwed it back on solid so just need a mirror cap and new piece of glass.
Bit more work on the car today, replaced the rear brakes with some new discs and pads from Tom at Wests Renault.
Ones on the car were absolutely fucked! And the bearings were rumbling a bit.
Then took it to Sainsburys finest jet wash and gave it a quick whip over:
Next jobs to do -...
Seat will be up for sale over the weekend.
Done a bit more driving today and not sure I can get on with it.
New rear discs and pads, and front discs have arrived so thats the weekend sorted. Next up is new front pads and tyres, then track days will be booked.
Got my subframe through today so fitted my Imola after work.
Bit of a trial fit as I want to fit some better bolts and neaten it all up but it fits and works and feels awesome!
Not as tight as I first thought so might be keeping it.
Will be staying road legal, not going full on racing spec.
Hence the brackets in the title ;)
The above price includes the car, bucket seat, steering wheel, new brakes, throttle cable etc.
I've not got it to be as cheap as possible, but if I can have it sorted for as close to £2k as possible...
Picked the car up from Paul (Harpham) last Saturday and got a fair bit planned for it.
Few pictures of it as it stands now, on 66k miles:
First mod was an OMP wheel to replace the shagged standard one:
So much better!
I did make the long drive to Gloucester to buy an Imola bucket...
How can I find it?!
Disconnected the battery earlier and now need to put it in to work.
Have no paperwork etc.
It's an 01 ph1 172 with tape head unit and 6cd changer.
Are there any difference apart from looks on these?!
I like the Sabelt's but they're about £50 more than this:

Is it worth the extra?
Re: Harphamominom's Ph1 Project
Considering this is now my project thread ;)
My first mod on the silver ph1 will be having it sprayed Sunflower I think.
Re: Clio Bargins.
Everything I bought for my 182 pretty much.
The best was my run of suspension though.
Sportline springs, free, sold for £80.
H&R's bought for £270 sold for £600.
AST's bought for £450 sold for £980.
Interesting, cheers mate.
Problem is it's not worth that money to me, was hoping for something around £20!
I have to take my laptop down anyways, and watch the machine was just hoping for a cool gadget!
