Cheers buddy, funnily enough i found a few pics of it the other day, hows it been? Ta =) Wouldnt have any other colour, would ruin the car in anthracite/black. Silver is clean and fresh.

anyone spot the Volvo over the road?

All the cars ive purchased in the last 10 years have been bought over condition and history rather than mileage, ive had loads of 100k plus cars that have been super reliable.

Busy Monday again. First up was to remove and refit the rear quarter cards correctly as the didn't sit properly, found some speakers in the back, binned them and refit the speaker wiring back into the loom. Cards got a good scrub whilst they were off. Cut taped and tucked the wires away back...

Cheers buddy.

It was pretty horrendous the noise when you nailed it in 1st and second, was like a grating vibrating knocking noise. Glad I sorted it easily. I think it was the exhaust touching the subframe.

Got a little bit more done on the Clio today. Sorted an issue that @rob893 mentioned in his advert. Exhaust was banging under-load. When under full throttle in 1st and 2nd you would get a horrendous noise through the cabin, Rob had the car looked at and know one could find the problem, i...

Got a few more bits done over the last couple of days. Removed super glue from the bonnet, tried everything, last resort was a light wet sand and it has all now gone. Before. Sand. Done. Next up was new number plates, i replace them on every car i buy and i have to stick them on...

Fair play to you, love a mk1

@baysthebest , this is the one we were looking at on eBay.

I was looking at this, was on ebay for like 1k but Gumtree it was £750? Was to far gone for me, good luck.

Cheers guys.

Yes, one of the thumb grips are ruined! Need to send the wheels off to Swindon to get them powder coated to!

Spent all day on the Clio today, absolutely shattered now. First up the misfire was still there, i dont think it ever went. I pulled the plugs and number 4 plug (cambelt end) was black and sooty. Spoke to @baysthebest me brother and went to his house to borrow a fuel injector from his 182 track...

Well spotted, makes it easier for me to take the interior out tomorrow for a deep clean. No wire chopping!!

Sorted the passenger seat whilst at work today, quick 2 minute fix, the bar had come off, refitted all ok. Done Engine needs a clean, (fuel rail guard at home)

Misfire seems to have sorted itself out this morning, strange. I may wip off the manifold later and just check the leads and plugs haven't got any water ingress. Did a clip test and no faults showing, checked lambda readings, all ok.

Cheers Chris, I want to be it looking immaculate first then I may think about spacers etc. :)

Hi all, haven't been on here properly for the past 18months, but im back with a new toy, a Clio cup 172. I've been after a Clio cup or a ph1 for a short while now, went to see a few but they were all dogs, literally couldn't believe some of the states the clio's are in now. Anyway after seeing...
