    2000 Clio II "Tech Run" meaning

    No such thing as a Clio 2 Tech run I’m afraid. (I sold them brand new back then so the model range is engraved in my brain!) got a link to the advert? I’ll hopefully be able to tell you what it actually is.

    2007 197 ‘crunchy’ gearbox

    If it is The gearbox, it will probably need Fully rebuilding at some point anyway, and whilst it’s out you may as well do the clutch. similarly, if it is the clutch causing your issue, whilst it’s all in bits, you may as well do the gearbox.

    172 in a mk1, Superfatdan's very very long project....

    Another month passed means another two track days. September brought us a forecast very wet day at the start so I bought a Meglioto use for the day. No footage. Then, last week all 4 of us made it to combe in all 4 of our proper track cars and all 4 of us saw the day through without issue. Here...

    Trailer size that is big enough for clio but fits in garage

    I trawled eBay for months looking for mine and then one night I got bored and did a search of Facebook marketplace. Bingo!

    Trailer advice

    I was suggesting 15 inch dynamique wheels (or similar) with a low offset. Plus the removal of spacers, that should see you on the trailer easier.

    Trailer advice

    @VenomUK - I have a BJ Minno but I have the one with a totally flat bed. you have two options; fit some standard 15 inch wheels with skinny tyres and remove the spacers when you load/unload the car, or buy another trailer. Here is mine;

    My new ‘Meglio’

    So... completed a track day in it today. What a disaster... So it came on AR1 tyres and as the only reason I bought it was for a wet track day (forecast was horriffic) I went out last night and had 4 brand new Uniroyal RS5’s fitted. Did the track day today and it was bone dry all bloody...

    My new ‘Meglio’

    So, track day tomorrow - normally is be spending tonight prepping my Mk1 or the van, but it’s due to rain all day and the Mk1 is miserable to drive in the wet and the Van’s exhaust fell off on the way to work on Tuesday morning. So in preparation I’ve removed the AR1 tyres and fitted a set of...

    My new ‘Meglio’

    Sadly not mate. I’ve done 10/12 retentions this month and it’s totally hit and miss. This one has had to be done postal, and with the back log from DVLA closing due to covid, the wait is huge. I did one for a focus on the 22nd March and it only came back 2 weeks ago. 😂

    My new ‘Meglio’

    Yes mate. He’s still there too.

    My new ‘Meglio’

    I will sell it on in a few weeks and put an advert up on here before putting it on eBay/Autotrader etc. I don’t need it, I have no use for it. I just wanted to scratch an itch.

    My new ‘Meglio’

    So, a friend of mine has a habit of building cars and spending eye watering amounts of money and then sells them when finished. This one is/was no exception. The modifications have done less than 50 miles. The majority of which were covered when delivering it to me today. 😂 I don’t have a need...

    Trailer size that is big enough for clio but fits in garage

    Do you have your B&E? I don’t and after extensive research, I am legal (by about 90kgs!) to drive my passat with my 900kg clio and 325kg trailer. The guy at the towing school that helped me said my passat or an equivalent aged A4 are the only cars I can use due to maximum permissible weight.

    Trailer size that is big enough for clio but fits in garage

    Id put the bare minimum on the trailer mate. Get as much as you can inside the tow vehicle.

    Starting out on my own - cleaning cars for money !

    There isn’t a market for bespoke cleaning. Well there is but not newcomers. Lots of high end cleaners out there and to the masses, it’s a waste of money. If I was you I’d start out basic. Offer basic services for reasonable money. A wash, vac, polish all the glass and slick the tyres/black the...
