I was surprised how clean it stayed sat on the drive for a week! Just brought it for 2 front tyres fitting and their jack won't go under it😂. I bet it scrubs like a t**t with new tyres on.

Thanks, it looks OK from a distance but is definatly in need of some cosmetic enhancing. As long as it remains reliable I can live with the looks though. Belts are due next year so a decision wil have to be made about its long term future.

Welcome. You said bought not brought a clio, f**king awesome first post👌. You can definatly stay👍.

@Steve should have kept his username as it was🤣. So should @Steve_RS

Yeah the weather was good, until it banged it down on the way home. As for the old man at a meet thing, this wasn't a bunch of kids in a car park doing burnouts and runing each other over and neither was it a group of old duffers talking about how they removed the fuel tank to chrome plate the...

Yes, and no I don't know his username either 😂. Glad I didn't need those spare batteries! Me too and having those roads local(ish) it's a crime not to use them more often.

Plenty of decent B&B's up there 😉.

Gave the car a shakedown today with @Yorkshire Pudding @Louis @dann2707 @Sj1782 @Steve out for a rare Yorkshire meet. My car survived, nothing fell off or caught fire which is a win after I've been spannering on it😂. The only issue was that barely legal PS3's don't offer much grip! @dann2707...

Any excuse to use the car for a bit of fun has to be taken when you're an old git. And the kids loved my dad jokes 😂.

Because at 85 he can't drive fast anymore😂.

Yeah, wheelie bin man definatly found us some dodgy roads. Dead quiet apart from the local shop van that probably travels that route 78 times a day🙄.

Corsa's? 😂

Thanks, they do blend in surprisingly well. 100% the best mod to date and are as comfortable as they are cool looking.

Let's hope so😂.

Yours was done with a bit more flamboyance. 👨‍🎤

I'm sure it's something to do with the paint code. I recall a thread about it on here somewhere.

Last resort someone like motorhog maybe?

I think I need a rally livery on mine. That way I can get away with never washing it again 👌.

Nobody on here win it then?

No worries mate, thanks for offering anyway. You too @Louis 👍. To add to my post, new alternator fitted at 116572 miles.

No interest in it on here? Shipping it would only be a couple of hundred tops so if the cars cheap enough someone will bite and save you lots of work. Just park it around the corner when the Mrs is out and start ordering bits for the new one 👍🤣.

Didn't you just do the belts? Deffo sell the engine, someone may even come and remove it themselves.

New alternator from @renaultpartsdirect delivered with their usual speedy sercice👍. I'll not be sending the old one back though, half the £20 exchange would be spent on posting the flipping lump😂. Thanks to @Yorkshire Pudding for offering to come and fit it for me👍. f**k you @Yorkshire...

Says it all🤣🤣.

@Touring_Rob you know you could have stripped the brakes etc off the beam while it was on the car, it wouldn't have been as heavy then 😂.

The f**k does 'recent full service history' mean? A receipt for only the last service done? I'm gonna remember that one😂.

Twas a bit rolly on track, and I found the cooksports harsh on the road and some bumpy parts of my commute I had to take slower than with standard springs fitted. The B14's I would say feel similar to standard over bumps but don't roll as much. They defiantly aren't stuff enough for track use...

Don't put B14's on it, they are too soft for a track car. Hold out for some BC's or ast's😏.

I'd love to do this sort of refresh on my car but if not want to drive it if it was that clean underneath! Amazing work, it'll definatly be a keeper once finished👍

Take the bulb out.
