i replaced the belts and clutch just before it was retired. i dropped an engine in it when the bottom pulley separated and dropped the belt. all came together. what does it cost to tax a 2001 clio 172 ?

Last night i fired up my old sunflower 172 that has been parked on the driveway since 2011. Started it every now and then just to check it still runs. I am going to try and sort it and get rid of the green hue and pigeon s**t from it. As it is parked under a very large tree it suffers from the...

this happened on my phase 1. i simply had the sleeve replaced and the seal that sits behind it. im no expert but i think the later boxes are different in that they have to be stripped.

My phase 1 172 smells a bit fumey in the car and when parking it up. Smells like it maybe burning oil and does use some but nothing too dramatic. Engine is at 100K When a clio engine wears and starts to burn a bit of oil is it typically valve seals or something more sinister ?
