    Arctic blue Integra DC5

    @BenRS182 I can't reply in the other marques thread because pauper but this is mine that I picked up last May. I still haven't had much chance to get out and use it due to the various lockdowns etc but my concensous is their cost now far outweighs them as a car in my opinion, over the last year...

    Ottoman blue I45. Who owns this colour Clio?

    I tended to keep cars for about 6 months at the time so probably early 2010, that was clio 2 out of 4 😅

    Ottoman blue I45. Who owns this colour Clio?

    My conversational skills have improved over the years! Looks like my ottoman blue above had a tough life after leaving me and was last MOT'd in 2013 so I presume that's a gonner!

    What's your favourite car related YouTube channel?

    Seen a couple of vids floating around, they should both be embarrassed but sadly I feel they won't be.

    Sunday @ The Motorist Hub

    I'm up for a trip over to meet up with you all if anything goes ahead 😁. Just been looking at their information as a result of this thread, looks like a nice place to go!

    My new ‘Meglio’

    That looks great, looks really well finished unlike some of them you see. I would like to try and scratch the itch of having one too, the 6.5k makes it seem like a great buy for someone judging off prices I have seen floating around for cobbled together ones.

    Arctic blue Integra DC5

    The guys at Tensport have had a decent look over it and sorted out the alignment again for me, drives much nicer now, I will happily be reccomending them to other friends. I also stopped off at a detailing place in Preston on the way back for a look too.

    Clio 172/182 - Too small?

    6'5 here and I was all good with a helmet on, you may wish to look at taking the rubber bungs out of the seat mountings if you have an exceptionally long body 😅. I was okay without doing that though.

    As said earlier glad you are keeping the thread alive. It was a good car to me, it will give you some good times 😊

    Arctic blue Integra DC5

    @Danith there's a good chance the integra will still be there on the 19th, I'm leaving it with them on the Monday as they are quite busy, I might even be down there myself in the afternoon if it's ready to be picked up. Feel free to have a look round it or I'll let you take it for a quick spin...

    Arctic blue Integra DC5

    @Crazylegs thanks for the comments/advice, I have actually read about your troubles on the ITR pages, what a shame! The car does have hard race rear camber arms on it and front caster bushes so hopefully it should be set up quite nicely, the alignment issues started from a front wheel bearing...

    Arctic blue Integra DC5

    It's brilliant, a friend of mine has had one since new so I have had a lot of experience with them including a trip out to the ring in his, I was originally looking at cheap £1500ish estates but this came up and I went to see it as quickly as the lady selling it could accommodate me!

    Arctic blue Integra DC5

    No updates on the car for now, haven't really used it much with working from home, I haven't actually cracked a thousand miles in it since May yet. It's booked in to tensport on the 17th to have an alignment done, hopefully a rattle behind the dash that is driving me mad tracked down and the...

    Arctic blue Integra DC5

    Thats good to know, I haven't heard a bad word about them yet, my friend is Jole Docherty, he seems to help them trackside with his son Freddie too (Freddie is a right little dude, he's ace!), another friend Iain has had his supra there a couple of times too by the looks of it.

    Arctic blue Integra DC5

    They are very expensive for what they are in my opinion, that was always the thing that put me off buying one for so long! I felt a bit odd making the purchase 😅. I have already decided to get a daily along side I think for general duties and adult stuff! A friend of mine uses them for his...

    Arctic blue Integra DC5

    Hi all, Thought I would start a thread on my 30th Birthday present to myself. I have been looking at these for about 5 years on and off but never gone through with buying one, lockdown must have got to me as I took a massive gamble and bought this sight unseen from the opposite side of the...

    Thought I would try a bit of Italian

    Thought I would update this. I have been trying so sell the car along with my FN2 but I'm not getting anywhere so it looks like its staying for a while longer. It's now on 61k, has been relatively easy to live with tbh, it has a couple of vibrations inside I need to look into but other than...

    What's your favourite car related YouTube channel?

    @RuskiWeldShit perfect, that's exactly the type of feedback I was after! You have picked up on a lot of the points I also thought myself anyway so nice to hear that I was on the right lines on how to improve. I'll certainly take the advice on board, like you say I think once I start to relax...

    What's your favourite car related YouTube channel?

    Probably not the best thread to to jump straight in to with the calibre of the other videos in here but I was hoping to get some feedback on my first proper attempt at a video? Had a bit of a rotten time mentally recently so I thought giving this ago would give me something to concentrate on...

    Abarth Punto Esseesse - Autobrite Renew - Mini detail

    Ours (well my girlfriends) is a bit of freak, it isn't a real one so to speak, it is full essesse spec though and has a Tune4performance map on it, I have a thread from when we first bought it here: https://cliosport.net/threads/thought-i-would-try-a-bit-of-italian.813675/#post-11515290 At...

    Abarth Punto Esseesse - Autobrite Renew - Mini detail

    That looks like a lovely example, I've been sorting out ours the last couple of days too, it was more of a cream colour than white to start with, did you find the boot covered in tar and iron fillings? Seems to be a hot spot, not sure where ours was kept previously but I had to do multiple hits...

    Detailing Chat & Questions Thread

    Hi Guys, I haven't done a top up shop for ages, started detailed my white Abarth today and realised I was very under tooled. What are people reccomending for microfibres and drying towels these days? I had two new fluffy purple things still wrapped up, went to try them and they were terrible...

    Donington 10/11/18

    My friend Iain was there in his rx7, had a bit of issue with black flags for noise before finding a decibel devil and managing to take part for the rest of the day. He said it was a little relaxed etiquette wise. Shame you couldn't get the mk3 out there Ste!

    ***How much is it worth?***

    Thanks for the input Dan :) Like you say, I know the car isn't perfect and I'm quite happy to send pics of everything wrong with it to interested parties so hopefully honesty pays off in the end.

    ***How much is it worth?***

    Hi guys, Could someone give me some honest feedback for my advert/price? The really cheap ones seem to be flying out of the door so I'm not sure if I'm over valuing mine, I thought £1500 was a fair price but maybe I need to rethink that. The missfire has now been sorted via a new injector so I...
