Well doesn't look like my Williams will sell this side of xmas, so it could well end up being garaged until next year, at which point I'll decide weather or not its worth the £800 it'll cost to re-insure it for another year.
Started running it on BP Ultimate as opposed to Shell Optimax and it...

had a wee stint with you there, seems pretty rapid mate.
i need a car with xenons, they look the s**t.
oh, and i had my whole drumkit in the car so wasnt as fast as i couldve been.

My clutch cable in the willy went the other day, the little adjuster thing snapped off, not the cable itself. Anyway, had a new cable put on, but now it wont go into reverse, I have to turn the engine off and stick it in reverse, then start the car.
Its like the cable isnt pulling through...
saw you just coming out of leicester towards the m1 this morning. my band are recording in a studio in leices so thats why i was up there, no in the clio tho :(
trophy looked spanking.
Lewis.
Yes, i did the whole car, BY HAND, with ScratchX!!!
Also 2 layers of SRP (3 on the bonnet) and a layer of EGP, followed by P21s.
Then it rained all over it yesterday :mad:
Ah well, here a few pics;
(photobucket appears to be down so apologies if theyre slow, theyre on a crappy server)
...Never again, jesus im knackered, that is such hard work to get off the paint. I thought id got it all off, opened the car port doors, to be greated by all the smeras, que another hour of buffing.
It does look good now tho, topped it off with 2 coats of SRP and a layer of EGP, just about to...
Not much mind, only about £15.
I need some flash/java/C+ guru to make me a serious myspace profile, basically I want the whole thing to fit on the screen without scrolling up and down, I want a fresh layout, animated navigation etc.
Fairly dark look (black background etc) but also with a...
whats the best route to go? ive got a magnex exhaust atm but am on standard airbox/air filter. Presumably a performace filter to go in the standard airbox is best, or is there a better system?
Presumably an open system will just suck hot air in?

tis just down the road from me, i went to have a look a few weeks bk, I'm pretty sure its had a front end shunt at some point, see this thread...
Spotted a bottle of this in the shed the other day, dad must of brought it at some point. Anyone used it? Is it any good?
Was thinking I could give the williams a coat of the this, then SRP/EGP over the top.
Ok, had my williams a few days now, after my 172 cup went on saturday.
Firstly, the williams is more fun to drive when ur giving it some, no doubt about that. Its so much more absorbing, in that you can feel the wieght of the car, and can feel exactly what the fron wheels are doing, with the...
Following on from this thread http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=250857 , here are the pics of the beast:
I love it to bits, they shud be illegal as theyre too much fun.
ok, normally ICE does nothing for me and when i had my cup i was more than content with the standard speakers/headunit.
I got a williams yesterday and the speakers are so sh1t3 that I simply cant live with them.
there are no door speakers so I'm just changing the dash ones, 10cm i belive...
Picked it up yesterday from dan_mk1 (great chap, would defo do business again). Its an amazing car, its had a good clean this morning, SRP and P21's etc, looks pretty spanking right now.
Controls feel heavier than my 172 cup (sold to yoz yesterday), the turn in isnt as sharp and theres more...
Went to look at a flame red PH1 last night, as my cup finally goes on sunday. Ive driven past it a few times and it looked mint, so I went to see the chap.
So I get there, long story short;
-Front bumper doesnt sit round the headlights properly
-Front bumper has no stone chips at all (recent...
Going to a renault dealer after work to look at a black gold 182 with both cup packs, and 33,000 on the clock, its up for 8995 atm, does this sounds reasonable to everyone? ive not got a massive idea when it comes to 182's, but i was thinking about 8k ish?
thoughts?
Yoz is having it for a customer, i think im gonna cry when i see it being taken away.
Just been to look at a Ph1 Flame red 172, just to tie me over till i decide what im having next (trophy wud be nice).
I feel quite depressed, lol. Im so attached to my cup.
How much am I looking at for a new gearbox as I think mine has completely shat itself now. 5th wont engage properly and jumps out when I lift off, and 1st is being a real pain, its hard to get it to go in properly.
Serious money? :(
been working on this for a few days now, aiming to ge some desktop backgrounds up for people. tis a painstaking process but it'll be awesome when its done, i'll keep u aprised...
this is the reference photo:
Gonna jack the car up 2moro and get underneath, see if i can sort this blasted 4k rattle out.
a few peeps have posted that its rattling cables and stuff, but it there anything else it could be?
im gonna try and cable tie anything thats loose nice and securely (making sure it wont melt on the...
