Wow that looked lovely when you first had it!! To get the trophy for cleanest car, says it all about the condition!
Must be both heart breaking to get it back not as you sold it. but also great to have it back and build it up again to what it was. New wheel choice and the list of parts to get...
All good mate :up: for only 30 quid ish, hoping it's a good investment. Basically changes the resonant frequency to a higher RPM that is out of normal cruising speed so when doing 60/70mph will be hoping for very little vibration
The stereo would need to be steering wheel control compatible, then you'd need a car specific adaptor lead and a stereo specific patch lead, so in this case a Clio adaptor/iso lead and Kenwood patch lead. The patch leads are like 3 or 4 quid but the iso lead for a Clio might be a bit more :up:
There's a mechanic at the local Renault dealer who's worked on a few of our cars round here and he is going to fit it for me, he's fitted one before so fingers crossed it all goes well and is a simple-ish job
This what i'm really hoping for!!
Looks very smart that :up: i'm normally all for silver Turini's but I think i'm also going for anthracite there, seems to work really well with the black car and other mods. But i'd still leave the badges and bullets well alone and silver!
With the new stereo, is it not steering wheel control...
As above, won't be getting fitted for a couple of weeks :up:
Nope, it's going straight on when the PMS is fitted bud, anything that helps reduce noise and vibrations i'm all for so not going to mess about having to put it on later.
I know what you mean, always something to take the money...
Looks much better that, bigger and fills the cut out in the bumper.......... just needs the trim around the cut out now! Were you still having issues with that?
Will do, keep an eye on my thread bud - fingers crossed it'll be on within a couple of weeks. I've seen sooooo many cars on here with the PMS shifter fitted but never a mention of the anti vibration thingy so thought it was worth a punt!
😂😂 I accept all...
Cheers mate! Yes I know what you mean, it IS a lot of money but sooo many people rate them so highly and they always seem to be selling them so I thought sod it! I have the added bonus of already seeing and feeling one fitted in @T9 0LLE car. That all said, I was all for a BMS shifter to be...
So Sunday evening last weekend was the first trip out in the Clio since the 19th November, having been in it's winter hibernation. Pleased to report it fired up on the button, no issues at all and mannn it felt fast!! To be honest, it ran like it had just been out recently! It's dusty from...
Nice one, will look forward to it!
Might have my PMS shifter on then, but we'll see......... side by side would be VERY interesting to see the difference
Great stuff bud, nice to see all has gone well........... to me, the car almost looks like it's got coilover lows now especially at the front, it sits very well indeed :up: makes mine look high now!!!! 🙈 How much did APT charge you for the geo set up?
Can only imagine how it handles now!!
Looking minty fresh buddy, I think keeping the Oz's is an absolute must even if 2118's come along as you said. Looks awesome in that 'after' photo :smile:
I think i'm going to have to invest in some of the Auto Finesse stuff!
See what you mean!! I'm late to the party here but that looks like it's been hammered..... literally!
Will it still go on ok now you've had a go at straightening it etc?
Oh what that's a bit crap about the brace!! I'll now go and have a read in the technical section :up: Hopefully it'll be on and sorted soon though!
Those OZ's look fresher than new there!!
I know you said about wanting a warranty, but now I truly see why it is a must......... 12k WITHOUT labour!! :fearscream:
All genuine parts and fitted by BMW too tho, best way!
