Yeah it's still a bit "skoda" but they did alright in the end. It's still an unknown, could be dog dirt. Only time will tell I suppose.

42k, bought 3 months ago with 41k. Used 2-3 times a week for the commute, just so it's not stood really, all other miles track bound. Loving it.

270 horses, launch control, switchable rev matching and LSD (yes it's a leccy dif, could still be good). There is rally pedigree, believe Haydon padden drives one in WRC. I bet it's cheap and reliable, what's not to like???

Sorry, I'm not sure how I managed to quote you on my last post. Only intended to quote the OP.

Can't see you going wrong with either of the gaz coilovers, just comes down to budget and how track focused you want you're set up. Post up you're decision/ findings if you can.

Based only on what I've read I'd go for gaz over the spax, definitely save the extra for the golds though.

Lifted the front seats this morning, got the last of the Axminster/foam etc out. Just left with the bare floor complete with tar patches and an airbag light!!

Push button start. The worst thing to happen to car security in a decade.

I wouldn't have another German performance car given to me, and mine was 8yrs old. Enter the 20 pence Clio, leave it unlocked :smile:

Sadly yes. If the theory fails however, the ba****d probably won't start anyway :smile:

Any car with a push button start can be stolen in minutes without keys, M3's, M5's, RS4's, the list goes on and the value goes up. £500 Clio with no interior? That's all the security you're ever going to need :smile:

Thanks for adding to that mate.

That bird would be cat D if she tried to flog my motor!

Quality mate. Thanks

SW motorsports do bolt in halfs. Lancashire based I think.

Few bits done this weekend. Discovered a puddle in the passenger footwell on Saturday so after considerable effort/research trying to pinpoint the leak I decided pull the interior which was always on my to do list and hopefully once removed it will be far easier to find the leak. So here's the...

Afternoon chaps, Just looking for some clarity on a water ingress problem in passenger footwell. Got the scuttle off and I'm unsure if I have parts of the guttering/drainage missing. 1st photo bottom left corner of the windscreen has plastic guttering connected via the white strip. The passenger...

Great day for the Clio. Lifted the passenger floor mat, found a puddle, swore repeatedly, hit things then sulked. Sorry no photos :smile:

Ya buy cheap, ya buy twice. The wheelie bin French build quality certainly lives up to the hype. Except wheelie bins are water tight.

Glad I read this thread today, just lifted passenger floor mat on the off chance and hey presto :smile: I'm with you berilla- F**k you Clio Piece of s**t

Money well spent.

Fair enough mate, I just read the situation wrong on your replies. I've never driven a 197 so can't comment but I took a big "down grade" from an s3 8p to find a car which was more "fun" and I definitely found it in the 182. Test drive needed :up:

Don't take this the wrong way mate but you really don't sound like your interested in driving at all For 2 miles a day if it's reliable, I'd just keep it.

Just read from start to finish. Quality.

Looks nice and tidy mate. Used to love those things, can't believe it's 27 years since they were terrorising council estates all over the country.

My thoughts exactly. :up: Cheers.

First time round Donington park park on the evening session last Friday. Car worked really well, enjoyed the circuit and will definitely go back. Unfortunately I'm now quite sure the famous dephaser pulley has given up as I'm getting the diesel locomotive melody when the engine is hot. So with a...

Cadwell is awesome. As above, put £20 aside for tuition. Worth every penny. Enjoy.

Looking good.

Like climbing out of a rolls royce and climbing onto a horse and kart:smile:
