My fingers/fingernails are in agony.... I'm nowhere near finished but the wife was going mad so the old crow stopped play. :(
It was all done by the previous owner, but he neglected it, i've neglected it and the car was fully resprayed last week so the engine was tarnished to fcuk and was...
Was watching some p**n on my laptop earlier... :o
Now the only window i have open is cliosport.net, but when i turn the sound on, the grunting and groaning begins over the speakers. Even if i shutdown cliosport, the noise is still there.... :eek:
My mrs will go tits if she turns the sound...
I bought the car with loads needing doing to it. Dented, Keyed, Suspension shagged etc etc.
This isn't the finished product, (still needs tyres MOT etc) but i'm just really pleased with the paintwork so thought i'd show you all!!
Anyway, enough of me. (click on them for a better pic.)...
Thought i'd give it a bash, came up like brand new!!! Took me all day mind you, the paint was soooo flat.
Just used G3, T-Cut, Black Top hand glaze, then AG-SRP.
I bought my car with the impression the knocking was fucked front suspension. I've since fitted brand new suspension all the way round. Its sort of quietened (sp) down but its still there. Unless you drive very very gently, theres a loud but very fast knocking vibration noise under acceleration...
Cars had a repaint and i want to give it a spit and polish this weekend.
Whats the best to use? I've only got AG SRP but i'm assuming thats probably not the best??
Cheers! :)
The internet on the move thing.

Had the thing about a month. When I bought it it had rusty arches, was filthy dirty and just needed some tlc. Well, i've given it that and spent 6 hours today cleaning it. Its got masses of history and has been very well looked after, it Just needed the 'Dan' touch. I'm proper fussy with my...
There is a guy in Stoke on trent seling a 1.2 16v sport Clio 2001 on a Y plate (older shape)
The car was described as 'tidy with a few marks, back wing has had a bad paint job. Sometimes cuts out other than that a very nice reliable car.
After driving 3 hours I can confirm that the car is...
Temp? Machine wash? Any Persil?
