I I have thought about it, but I’m not overly fussed. If one comes up cheap then I’ll grab it.

Very very close

I do have some genuine center caps to fit, bit I’ll wait until I re-balance all the wheels before fitting them in with a dab of silicone to stop them going walkies!

So, cracked on with a couple of jobs today. Removed locking wheel nuts, the car never came with a locking key, bit of a mission but got there in the end. Replaced with standard bolts thanks to JMRS who lives just down the road! Ideal! Headlights, all restored now, literally transforms the car...

Paint work is really coming out lovely, drivers door and front wing DA’d this evening. Removed the door trim and side repeater so could clean behind.

On the list don’t worry, the only paintwork I’ve touched so far is the bonnet.

I’ll start them next week.

Left them to soak in hot water and fairy liquid for an hour, then the sticky crap just scrubbed off.

Tackled the interior door switch panels, they were disgusting!! all the sticky crap removed.

Self employed chap, known him forever, was here for around 40 minutes, did every panel, even one on the boot lid I didn’t notice. Cost me next to nothing. I won’t say how much as everyone will be calling him asking to pay the same.

Dent man came today, every panel de-dented. I was pretty sure all the paint was original, he also confirmed that it’s never had paint work!

Nearly finished the bonnet, a few more passes to go but it’s looking great! before After

Little test patch on the bonnet, that’s some neglected paint work 🤣

Ok, so I pulled the rear interior panels off to reveal the under sills.... As expected there’s rust, however it’s solid both sides all the way along, I’ve given it all a good stabbing with my screw driver and I haven’t gone through or feel like I’m going to go through. Can I get away with...

Rear lights are staying, with my growing age I now appreciate the original looks. Igive the headlights a good going over as I’m pretty good at sorting these plastic lenses. If not I’ll get a new set.

Finally got my hands on a totally original, un-messed with black phase 1 172 in black. Was on eBay at a breakers yard mid last week, rang them up and purchased it over the phone unseen for an absolute bargain! It was delivered today on a transporter and I’m well happy about how good it is...

Ring your Renault dealer, they can supply the correct card by registration.

Does anyone know this car? Has a Cliosport.net sticker in the rear window.

Totally ruined a mint Cup ?

One of those cars I wish I never sold :( was almost perfect by the time I sold it. If it came up for sale I would probably buy it back, spent so much time on it making it factory fresh.

Anyone on here own S20 CUP? Was originally RY03 VYR. I owned it for a while in 2015/16, I can see its had a few owners since I sold it.

Nice barge for someone, lovely drive. https://www.gumtree.com/p/cars-vans-motorbikes/2003-53-jaguar-s-type-v6-automatic-6-gorgeous-example/1212043352

The 2.0 dCi is fine mechanically, its like anything, look after it and it will look after you. The 2.2 dCi was the one to avoid, absolutely shocking. When it was having its service on weekend the engine was totally leak free.

Sold today and collected by @smiffyboy

When I was your age I would have just fitted the thing without even giving the insurance a second thought, as it's still a Renault part that's for a Clio.

This is cool, I want to see it cleaned up, nothing better than a sub 1k car looking all fresh.

For sale now in the for sale section. Messed up the pics,will sort that tomorrow.
