Not sure if any one went to this. @ Ingliston (Near edinburgh airport) Had a weekend ticket with work. Took down one of the nice 05 plate units we have.
Was a good weekend, although most will prob think im a sad-o. Battery in my camera ran out so only a few pics. First 3 or 4 was of the Our...

All comments about both are welcome

PS Yes I know the colour match is a bit off ;)
As above.
Battery last night was fizzing which we thought was odd but maybe was just hot cos car had got hot.
To be on the safe side I cleaned up 4 earths in the engine bay this morning, fitted a new battery and after a very short run its fizzing again. Obviously disconnected it now but...
Picked up this little beaut today. Full leater, K and N IK otherwise standard. Rear arches are rotten and its not 100% straight. Watch this space though :rasp: ;) :cool:
Evening chaps.
Just a quicky here, i think i know the answer but thiught i would ask anyway.
Finally got me green Rt (shed) on the road. But its got starting/batt issues.
Now when i try start it the starter just 'clicks'.
Also when driving the batt light will flicker. It runs fine...
Ok chaps and female chaps, i know its been asked 100's of times before but im asking again.
Im fancing a new car in Sept. I want to stay clio.
I love the Mk1 styling nice and boxy etc etc. Got lots of experiance with them (on to my 5th mk1, none of them have been a valver)
I have...
Buying an old K reg clio was never in my car 'plan'. Was having a few problems with my Ax Gt. I spotted a nice 1.4Rt for sale at the top of my road. A nice stop-gap between cars i thought. £800 cash monnies!
Heres a pic a few days after, only mods were 172 wheels and a slight drop.
Ill just...
Spotted the above with a Cs sticker on the way to work this morning on the M8.
Had a huge blue snowboarding secal on the rear 1/4 also.
Was in My MK1 uno turbo.
Hello!!
I very much doubt that my turbo will be at FCS this year!
I have been putting in silly shifts at work to get the car readya nd only this friday talked to a painter at my work to book it in for some body work, (front arches redone and the sideskirts done again) when my alternator decided to...
Ok just 2 10 min mods
Before
After
Wiper removed and gromit over hole, De-Djw stickered, i didnt really like the big one but the 2 side ones will stay.
'Sexi time'
Hay all.
I removed my carbon canister when i did my turbo conversion, i blocked the return hose to the tabk. Now i am getting pressure build up in the tank, heavy fuel smell and very poor petrol consumption. Is this because of the lack of canister or another underlying problem??
The...
Here are a couple. Just gave it a quick wash. Got a few more mods coming this month, braided lines and it needs a service too.
I also removed the 'ouch!' sticker and started to peel off the big Djw one. (the 2 smaller side ones will stay)
Comments please folks...
Ok so i have had the Turbo on the road for a few days. Problem is its drinking so much fuel. £10 will get about 45 miles and thats off boost! **SHOCK**
Right when i plumbed in the turbo i uesd to pipes from the tank, the main and wwhat i think is the return line. I have checked for fuel...
HIGH 5!!
Only a couple of advisorys.
Rear brake pipe slightly corroded
Couple of tyres getting low on inside edge.
