I can’t. For reasons explained to me that I’ll never understand.

Car was dry and cold, out of direct sunlight, sprayed it on, left to sit for 2/3 mins, then washed the panels with a bucket of hot water and a microfibre cloth. (They’re more grabby than wash mitts - that was my justification)

I’ve used this on a car once, worked really really well. Also, if you can, hot water. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/266568061319?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=YidCddhLRW6&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=yuhFMh5BRYC&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

Wow, what a buy! I’d love that for my son. Where did you find it?

Whatever the cause - it’s rebuild time. If you run slightly thicker oil and don’t drive like a helmet, it could last for years like that. But if you like driving it fast - you either need to buy another engine or have yours refreshed I’m afraid.

I have a Mk1 but knowing Renault it’s the same. 😂 Mine had worked loose and fell down inside the rear wing. As @Gus says, get the rear door card off and have a look inside. Even better if you have a magnet on a stick. If it has indeed vanished in to thin air, just wang some bolts on and use...

Very kind mate. Yes the clutch and the gearbox are what’s making me hate it. When it was standard it was mint. I’ve then spent north of £5k on a fresh box, diff, custom shafts and hydraulic clutch and it’s 100 tines worse than it was before. I hate it now. @colesy - just the continuous air...

Loads. Can’t be arsed to go in to it all again. I get PTSD every time someone mentions them.

I’m thinking of selling this. Since it’s last trip to Beaniesport - and the f**king s**t state they left it in - I’ve fallen out of love with it. Whats it worth? How do I price it?! Mk1 clio 16v Totally rust free - all original arches and sills - no filler! 172 running gear Gripper Hydraulic...

Only you could wear boat shoes fixing some headphones and get away with it.

Look forward to some clean pics and some detailed pics of the rear. It looks like an awesome bit of work tbf.

I so want to do Cadwell. Every year I say I’m going to do it next year but it never happens sadly. Got any vids??

I got mine from Harry (?!) the detailing guy in here. Dirt cheap.

Yep. I use it to clean my trainers too. 😂

This stuff is brilliant. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/145347599381?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=bn42ZQx9QHC&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=yuhFMh5BRYC&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

Nothing is selling unless it’s cheaper than everything else at the moment. Proper hard work.

That’s so awesome. So so awesome. Testament to looking after things properly!

The milky colour is the result of not 100% dry lacquer and then exposure to moisture. We get it with the smart repair guy. If it rains shortly after he’s been and painted a bumper corner, milky galore. Do the same again but leave them to dry in your house for a few days before refitting...

Where do you live? There’s bound to be someone on here that can spare you an hour to have a second set of eyes look at it.

All the brake lights ok? I’m not sure how the park selection sensors work on these. @lemonnobby will know I’m sure. 😂 Basically, if it doesn’t know it’s in Park it won’t start.

I f**king give up. I try and moderate Hitler’s own thread and he wades in here with his massive canoe like shoes, nausing it all up by chatting on it. You couldn’t make it up. f**k the lot of you.

This is a for sale thread. If you want to discuss the sale crack on. If not, stop with the chit chat. Plenty of other sections for that.

Fair play, that looks a proper good mix of cars. Love stuff like that.

New clutch needed. Not an expensive job on a 1.2.

And I’m rich with long flowing locks.

One of the most underrated cars of the modern era. Just a shame anyone taller than @Touring_Rob (which is a high percentage, have you seen him?! c**t still shops in Mothercare) has to have their head rubbing the ceiling. Amazing chassis though, and proper pin point steering. 👌🏽

Don’t you have a Cup?

Go for it. Worse case is you’ll burn through but if it needs paint anyway, you’ve nothing to lose.

Yeah man, all the time. Wassup?
