First hot hatch, a 205 GTI 1.6 I bought 4 weeks after passing my test. I got bored with the 997cc 4 speed pastel blue Ford Fiesta so i took a loan about to buy this. Loved it even though it spent more time in Campions Peugeot of Lincoln where my dad worked in the parts department back in the...

Just thought I'd clear my name 😁 it was kept on the lowdown for ages, my friend a salesman for Renault at the time bought it new then sold it to him. He has loads of bodyshop photos as it was being repaired, the guy put his hand in his own pocket to have it done.

It's NOT my old car. I sold the wheels to the chap when I part exchanged it for the Mégane 280, he then took it to Castle Combe and stacked it. He had it repaired and was unrecorded, then sold it on.

**DEPOSIT TAKEN** With the Coronavirus situation, having 3 vehicles, and work being sketchy there wasn't much I could do. I'd used money from the savings to buy it 2 weeks before the big C kicked in so quickly but it's needed just in case.

It's crazy how far you look into the areas how corrosion is setting in on these. Keep up the amazing monumental work 👌

If only I could sell the van!

Can't wait for March, April, Mays pictures 😬

Aaah but what type of sand? 😁 Pit Sand Sharp Sand Ballast

I'm only here for the classic CS quotes as this unfolds. Posts ad with no pics, no interest, asks why....... Cue the replies Sweepstake on when this thread gets locked 😁

Just found this, I'm after a box and wanted to know the difference. https://cliosport.net/threads/jc5-130-gearbox-advice.798183/#js-post-11190920

Me too, that threw me too trying to find the boot switch at first. Grubby fingers in the winter months

I averaged high 40s and saw low 50s on a good run

As much as I love the RS Line I think I'd miss the 330hp too much, although I don't use it that much when I do it's awesome to put the foot down. I've seen a 220 Trophy at Renault Retail a grand cheaper than the Mk5 so I'm going to make a call about that just to see what the monthlies will be...

Such a nice colour that, I popped into my local Renault dealer last week and they actually offered me the same RS Line demo car I test drove before Christmas. The Mégane 280 hardly gets used and going RS Line would free up some money on the monthly payments. They've given me numbers and left it...

Perfect, half the price

This one any good? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/402006835214

So buy a Kangoo sender and drop straight in, and the pump will be ok to use too?

Mine read half a tank, swapped the float, driven 70 miles, needles gone up to full 🤷 @Brigsy was saying to use the Clio sender and a Kangoo petrol float for it to work. I still need to see another sender to at least see if the housing is broken.

Popped down to Ashford to see Chris King. Stopped off for a breakfast in a bagel and latte en route at a place called 7Hotel-Diner where i went to for a Renaultsport meet a few months back. They often have car meet gatherings and today they had a few GT3 RS models, R34 Skyline, M2s, M4s...

Friday van vibes.

A very tidy example, nice updates

Top up of Tesco finest 95 and a couple of photos this evening. I've also arranged to take it down to Ashford in Kent this weekend so Chris King the Renaultsport specialist can give it the once over and look into the erratic speedometer and fuel sender problem.

Thank you! You're the third person to say that! To be fair who knows how long, it could be a summer or I'll stupidly become attached to it and smoke it about for a couple of years It's the adventure along the way working on it and hopefully take it to a few places.

Cheers, well if @Dr Jekyll doesn't mind maybe I can bring it to his workplace

Well, what a day! V day! As mentioned the van was located in Gloucester so I'd pre booked a one way train ticket during the week for £38 from Southend. 7:02am to be precise, 9:07am from Paddington to Gloucester although a rail replacement between Reading and Swindon slowed the journey down a...

And?....

Obviously not taking away the effort gone into these, there will be a call for them for many a 2118 owner to cover the unsightly hub nuts at the front. To me Motorsport is about minimal, weight saving, and taking away the unnecessary, so the diamonds are fighting against that.

Just my opinion, I like the white caps but think the silver diamonds clash with the wheels. Looking at the close up of the 2118, studs and nuts all Motorsport it just seems a bit out of place and a bit much.... But that's just me, appreciate the effort in going about making them.

If I wasn't picking up Le Kangoo I would have been there

That'll do for me
