TBH I can’t remember. I thought I had a photo but I don’t. I’ll have a look when I get a min. Mine are a little to long. I’ve kinked them slightly and cables tied them so the hoop is just hanging out of the bumper. If I need to use them then they will snap as they’re thin ties.

My final set for my rain/road tyres. OZ f1’s in black. Black always looks crap in photos but they look smart in real life. Even managed to get a set of centre caps to match the graphics

Bedford 3rd August - the good... We set off Sunday to Bedford which is circa 80 miles from my house. I went cross country to give the car a little work out. My in-laws now live 6 miles away which is handy so we made camp there. The journey up was uneventful. When I got there I had a little...

Last prep today. The weather forecast has been forecasting rain for Monday’s trackday but over the last couple of days this has changed to a dry forecast. Happy days as I can take these two sets of wheels and leave the rainsports at home. I’ve changed out the coil pack as a preventative...

So the last few weeks have been tough with regards the Clio. I've had a couple of issues. With work back up to full speed I simply haven't had times to address the issues. The main issue were the car had developed a couple of leaks. One was the end cap on the gearbox and the other one seemed to...

It depends on which wheel tbh. The 2118s are the closes on the inner lip. It’s hard to see but this is probably the best photo

I’ll just leave this here whilst it sinks in..... The advisory makes me laugh 😂 This last weeks been murder! Hopefully I can pick it up tonight

I’ve run DS1.11 on a 182 with 197 Brembo’s on. For the £££ I wouldn’t swap them for anything else. I have zero issues all day long weather it’s hot, cold or wet. They last well as well

I drove the Clio today and.... It only drove absolutely spot on! No rattles, no banging, went in all the gears, idles, stops, it even goes in a strait line after having all 4 corners removed, happy days! EPAS is working well atm which is also a relief. It’s going to be an interesting week...

So this is the week I should be able to use the Clio as a road car again. Today I’ve set about the final prep for it going for some finishing bits at the mechanics tomorrow and an MOT on Tuesday. I’ve managed to source some terminal covers for the battery at last incase anything falls on it...

This week i’m fitting and checking a few little things ready for the MOT. I’m working through a list in preparation. I think it’s all ready 🤞 I’ve sourced some internal covers for the manual mirrors to help keep the interior tidy. The Clio’s off for some final items at the mechanics (i’ll...

Yeah but this car sits between race car, garage queen, fake race car, a beat up old Clio, a track car and many other things but ultimately a car I care about so it’s always a compromise. Remember I’ve driven a rattly old 182 race car and I’d rather sacrifice 0.1s a lap and lug around a few extra...

Ticking the jobs off the list ready for the MOT. First up I now have no airbag light on because I’ve obviously got all the airbags working....... Next up I remapped the car with RS tuner. Must say the cold idle is massively improved. The cat’s back in ready for the MOT. The windscreen...

Cheers but that’s for a PH1. I manage to source an extract of one. Turns out black tape is the answer

Hi Has anyone got a link to the instrument panel wiring for a PH2 Clio? I'm trying to locate the airbag light wire and oil warning light wire. Any help would be appreciated Cheers Chris

Still busy with the Clio. The new heat shield is now in place I had some ST steel brackets made for the fire extinguisher nozzles so they’re all finished now I’ve changed out the front brakes as the old ones were pretty worn.... I went with DS1.11s again as I rate them and they lasted...

Slicks, £100 job done

Cheers, I run have the standard setup so can’t help you with that

RS Tuner arrived at long last 🙄 But the good news is it’s exactly what I needed. With the wife in the car activating the solenoids and pressing the pedal and me outside collecting the fluid the bubbles gushed out! Now I have a very firm brake pedal 😀 With the car then on the floor I only...

A couple of updates but no progress with the actual Clio of sorts. That hasn’t moved but... The silver 16’ TD1.2s are sold. This wasn’t planned but the intention was to put some rainsports on them. A set of Oz F1s came up having just been refurbished and with brand new rainsports on them so a...

Hi Yes the silver ones are 16’. The 2118s are 15’ Cheers

A few changes on mine... I’ve finished the engine bay so it now matches the car with anthracite and yellow I have some new wheels for road driving Finally I’ve had the 2118s refurbished from white to liquid yellow 😳

Cheers! Feels so close but so far atm. I literally can’t wait to drive it now 👍

I don’t know the offset without looking tbh. They’re 16’ and off of the blue car I raced. I bought them off of Russ who owns the blue car. They look big at the front atm as the 20mm spacer is still on there from the 15’ wheels.

Cheers! Yeah now it’s looking like a car again it definatly re lights the desire to get it finished. I was a bit worried about the 2118 colour but it’s a track car so colours are allowed?!

There’s a lot to read! My aim was to go to the Clio festival this year but I’ll aim for next year now. It’s still has two seats so anyone’s welcome at any trackday tbh. There’s a lot faster and better ones out there and they’re probably better driven 😂. Cheers

Cheers! I try to have a good attention to detail but I also do a good job of hiding the rusty bolts with camera angles 😂 The LY looks better in real life TBH and should look even better on a race track and not on my drive! Cheers again

Cheers, tbh at times I feel like I’m talking to myself 😂 Next up is new pads and discs for the front, alignment/corner weighting, MOT and finish all the little bits. My aim is to put a few road miles on it and then a trackday (or evening) at Bedford in preparation for the Ring trackday in...

Cheers & thanks! I’m still a little way away from completion but it’s great to having it st least looking like a car again. I’m looking forward to driving it next!

My 2118s are back and they’re now liquid yellow with anthracite stickers to match the graphics!
