I did laugh that you went straight outside grinning like an eejit to call your Mum, Kyle 86 :o
Very glad you elected not to rock out with your preverbal hanging out !!
BurbleBus did 220hp/235lb.ft
Happy as fek with that..!
Cheers Jon. Nice to see some old faces.. Need name badges as I'm utterly useless at remembering them :o
I don't think i'll get it on track ? The ticket is for S2POA not X441JOR .. I'm not sure how it works TBH.... chip_mk1 ? :o
Other than that, it'll be half a tank of fuel used to follow Dave up the road lol !
I've already brunged it to the last meet at The Unit a couple of nights ago :o
Won't be at the SRR day this Sat in the specialbus but will probably see you somewhere soon :)
It has beguned.

Buy some nicer ones ? I'm sure you could get some mint ones off here for about that price !
"Proper" refurb i.e.: weld/ blast + powdercoat will be ~£200.
Re: How much are my wheels worth?
Take one off and look at the back of the spokes - there should be an offset (ET**) stamped in there somewhere.
How much do you want/need for them ?
Put them up for £400 and see if someone bites your hand off....? Or £450 .. see if you get any interest...
If it's a front one, it'll need wings too or it'll look daft .. also then you'll need a wider track as the wheels won't stick out far enough.
3 people on this site might notice in a photo. No one on the street will notice or care. It won't make the car any faster or IMO look any better...
Standard mk2 2.0 Clios are about equal (below a ton) to a mk2 Focus ST. The RS is on another level.
If the FRS is running anywhere close to 350/440Nm, I can promise you you won't see which way he went.
Am I the only one not upset !?
It's a cheap French pocketrocket which will be used to drive like it's intended on track and when necessary round the twistiez.
I knew what I was buying (almost) before I bought it. Hence I bought it.
I'm not bothered that it's not factory fresh. That's...
Oh goody. Thanks..
Buckets might be on the list sooner rather than later then haha :o
It's a cheap French shed. It's been designed to be tracked !!
Well the price I paid, I'm happy. Already got people lining up to buy it who will all disappear as soon as the for sale ad appears...
