Its still running, id reset the timing and if running ok comp test it. If all checks out, prob got away with it.
My only worry would be has it weakened the valves with them lightly kissing the pistons.
Worth doing the steering rack bushes whilst in the area assuming its on oem rack. I have powerflex ones on mine, no idea if oem still available.
Id say you have the rest covered ok though. Itll drive loads better with fresh suspension and steering parts on.
Small update.
Treated it to a retrimmed steering wheel as the original R26 wheel was past its best.
Had it trimmed in smooth nappa leather top and bottom, perforated nappa leather sides finished off with oem Lamborghini nappa leather yellow marker and yellow stitching.
All done by...
Sack off the emerald ecu for another standalone that can talk to the clio canbus system.
I use Ecumaster black and stock dash works fine, i believe maxxecu and link also work.
Done well getting the rears glowing!
I use Ds1.11 in the meg. Can hot lap for ages no fade and consistent pedal feel, with the added bonus of decent stopping power from cold on the street. I believe dsuno are also very good albeit dont last as long.
Indeed mate would have ended up nasty if it had let go mid corner!
Good to meet you too mate. I was going to swap them for fresh ar1 on sunday too, lessons learned never trust old tyres.
100% mate its russian roulette once tyre is getting on.

With the decent weather finally here, fitted the technomagnesio wheels with yoko a048 for Croft.
On the Makro run to test.
Turn in on semi slicks compared to pilotsport5 is immense. Steering feels direct but on the negative side, less comfort and more noise.
Monday comes and get to...

As @Mr Underhill said above get the lance in. Id whip rear doorcards and blast it in on the rear arch seams and sill.
Dont forget to put some cardboard or whatever underneath the sill as the cavity wax will run out of any small gap onto the floor.
Done my Trophy a couple of years ago.
