    Fancied a van. Bought a van.

    Except you haven’t. It’s a VAG for starters. Utter toilet.

    Fancied a van. Bought a van.

    So the Clio 197/Meglio thing sold at 10am today. I can’t have money in the bank, it makes my ass itch and it’s why I’ve got so many bloody cars.... So I had a think about what to get next. I really fancied a van to just pile a load of stuff in the back and Me the wife and kids (and dog...

    Clio 172 Phase 1 - Barn find

    Buy a back seat (loads around, because track car) and take that and your damaged seat to a trimmer and get him to use the leather off the back seats. Will come back like new.,

    £5k Trackcar.....

    My mate has a mk3 MX5 track car. it’s slower than my clio, by a considerable margin, But he has an absolute riot in it. it’s such a well balanced and sorted car, plus wet track days become absolutely amazing instead of being absolutely s**t. 😂 Certainly sorts the men from the boys. if I was...

    Powder coat costs mk2 subframe black

    The bushes (if they survive blasting) will melt or at the very least be compromised during coating.

    What do I need for cup front suspension conversion?

    I was referring to secondhand. 60mm Coilovers rarely comes up for sale. Decent ones anyhow.

    172 Cup seat retrim?

    Buy yourself another front or rear seat. Take that and your current damaged seat to an interior trimmer and they will chop up the spare seat and sort it all for you. For around £120. (just booked in to have mine done)

    What do I need for cup front suspension conversion?

    182 Cup hubs and driveshafts (abs rings are different) are a pain. I fitted them to mine and now I want coilovers, my choice is vastly limited. Me personally, I’d stick with 54mm.

    I bought my dream car.

    Agree with all of the above. Wheels and ambers make it look bloody lovely!

    Mot today guaranteed fail unless...

    If it’s intermittent you can Bodge it together with some cable ties and/or some electrical tape.

    Punchier brakes

    I’ve just fitted DS1.11’s to my track car and I cannot believe how good they are. Best money I’ve spent on the car for ages.

    Wrinkle paint

    You say it’s chipped in a few places, is that chipped because you Hit it with tools etc? Or is it peeling in places? If it’s the former, I’d just do some blow Ins. If it’s peeling I’d strip it fully and do it again.

    Trailer advice

    Just found this on eBay. I have the same trailer and both my mk1 and Mk2 Clio’s fit in it perfectly. (Mine has centre boards but they’re cheap enough to add) towing with a passat/A4 will keep you under the B&E entitlement requirement too. 👍 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/154133584463

    Had a good run- Phase 1 gearbox disintegrated, is it worth repair?

    Second hand box for £150 and a days work to fit. or, get a duff box, send it off to be rebuilt properly, get a new clutch also, and fit all that. Probably looking at £800. if the rest of the car is good, you’d be mad so get another clio. You could end up with more issues than just a gearbox.

    Paint cost

    In that case Our place would charge you £220 plus vat.

    Exhaust woes (loud)

    My mate just took his car to a place called Infinity Exhausts, they fitted to small silencers in his track car as it was biblically loud. Very reasonable at £150 all in.

    Deciding wither to buy another 172

    100% didn’t have a sunroof. And it wasn’t an option either. (It was on the mk3)! *edit, just seen the pics and that’s an aftermarket sunroof. #butchery
