Did a couple of bits quickly on the cup yesterday as time was quite limited.
Got this manifold swap down to a fine art now, did it in two hours and had a chat with the neighbour whilst at it. although it doesn't sound like a big difference I only dropped one side of the subframe off the ball...
Friend of mine has popped this up for sale. Had it for the time I've owned 10 clios so a very well care for car with nice mods.

A friend of mine has a door bell with a camera in which links up to an app, telling her when someone's at the door using a motion sensor. You can speak to them telling them where to leave a parcel or just keep an eye. Can be battery or wired into the normal doorbell output. About £150 last time...
Nah! Wouldn't want to pay more than I do and wouldn't want to contribute to them losing their job if they got caught
Update
MOT passed it was the lambda :)
MOT - Fail
In the last update I left the car on axle stands where it has unfortunately remained until Saturday after I finally received the correct brake lines to fit.
The weekend before the annual ritual of swapping over the manifold in prep for the MOT happened. Timed it and took just over 3...
Selling up because the place we've bought comes with the furniture.
Obviously 10% cheaper to a CSer because of the ebay fees :)

can't go wrong with these
First two yes! Won't be able to get a cayman R for that kind of money. Seen a couple of 4Cs at just over 30 with slightly higher than average mileage but they go quickly when well priced. M3 CS.
honestly don't waste your time. Just do the dci 80 or 100 intercooler and decat it. The fuel systems aren't good on the ph2 dci so leave it standard and you'll hopefully get a few more miles out of it.
Coolers occasionally pop up on eBay for about £40-50.
Big update Mark! Lots done :)
All of it looks really good with your OCD touch.
Have you sorted the brakes now? I always bleed the brakes with the engine running so the valves in the ABS pump are open properly.
Few things I'd say although appreciate it's a bit late now.
Gradually increase your speed as it's easy to over cook it early on. Get tuition as early as possible so you can improve for the rest of the day. Check wheel torques regularly. Tyre pressure are very important 28-30 psi hot seems to...
First time I've seen your thread Adam. Car looks awesome. Really like your approach to making everything look and operate really well while it's all apart. Would like to do some stone chip like that on mine.
That is a lovely garage. Did you do the floor? I want to do something similar very soon and want to protect the concrete against spills!
PS I've said how amazing the work is before, the comment lives on!
well that depends which light you have. If you buy a DRE you don't need them because it has sufficient settings to adjust. The above diagram is for the cheapy light the OP used.
Brakes + Ph1 Fuel Setup + Rear Axle Painting
In my last update I harped on about how my brakes felt a bit wooden on the track day at Bedford so this week, with a bit of holiday to use up, took the Monday-Wednesday off to sort the cup. The idea of sorting out the rear brakes had been swimming...
No worries at all Dave, hopefully I didn't scare him. I've got the go pro film of the session if you want me to send it over, would be no bother.
It was a very good day, just had a few dangerous overtakes done on corners and some people not yielding on the straights.
I'm going to try and get a...
Certainly not you Jason! I only saw your car out on track one or twice but it was blooming quick that's for sure. Probably wasn't me understeering mega though, I was pretty careful all day as I didn't feel 100% confident with the brakes.
You too matey, hopefully you can see your car in the...
