My thread is the same mate haha, but I like to update and read back on things that I've done, as i'm sad.

Because Renault? They must have felt really confident that day.

Great updates Dave. Liking the brembos with the 2118's! Do you have a link for the faux alcantara? Looks a good match! If you ever want to sell the carbon bonnet can I have dibs ;)

Appreciate the kind words buddy :D I have lots of plans but little funds! haha. Forgot to mention i removed the boot trim and sanded back my earths as had been getting intermittent fog dash lights on braking. Why did Renault put them directly below plastic bungs which let water in?

You spot lots in hillington. :D

Welcome to the forum mate! Where abouts in North Yorkshire you from?

Watched loads of danny's vids now, really enjoy them over those crappy 'which wrap has daddy bought me for my merc this week?' ones. From those videos it's clear loads comes down to just the driving style/ability rather than power. All are ace though, have a soft spot for Jordans. Think he...

Cheers mate! I really enjoy getting hands on with this sort of thing, and to be honest you only learn through doing. I was pleasantly surprised with the paint too, as that's only 1 coat! Didn't want to go overboard as it's not needed and just peels.

Cheers Mark :D It's rustoleum combi-colour. Got it for the spitfire a while back, but thought i'd use it on my calipers rather than buying more paint.

Having cleaned up the sliders temporarily I ordered some new ones off ebay as for the price you can't go wrong and wanted it doing properly. 72mm X 10mm for front vented discs if of any interest to people who may be wanting some themselves. DSCN0371 by Louis Walker, on Flickr I wire brushed...

Spotted a tidy silver 197 in Knaresborough parked up on the side of the road near the centre, anyone on here?

I'm going to be doing this tomorrow! I believe a crowbar with the pivot on the bush bracket and then the other end on the bulkhead/floor curve really helps get it into position.

Isn't it not a great idea to flush these engines in between oil changes or is that just some rubbish I've picked up from somewhere?

They use spire clips with torx head screws. I drilled mine out when they were knackered and just used small bolts and nylon nuts.

Also *draught. My bad.

I wasn't even expecting that when I opened it. Hahahaha

I'm looking to sell my 1.2's sunroof before I sell it as it has been leaking fairly bad recently and don't want it causing problems for a future owner. I remember reading people sealing this with a draft excluder as it's basically what renault sell, but what size would I get? If someone could...

A meetup and drive down would be good as all are fairly local, obviously depending where everyone is based! I have lots of uni deadlines at the minute, so I'd have more time in about a month but don't arrange around me.

Went to the PPIK 2 years back and it was good fun! How much time would you be looking at for what you pay? Think we got 2 x 15 minute sessions when I went.

Like that mate.

You can use some grease on them, a smear of lithium or red rubber grease won't do any harm. None is better than the wrong stuff though.

Camels finest.

Only joking :D looks great. I'm just jealous. What are the top mounts on it at the moment? I may be interested

Hahaha I don't even remember writing that list for him. It's just everything I've done at the beginning pretty much

Those trophy side skirt stickers dont look straight...Cat D?

Enjoying this! You copying and pasting from somewhere?

If the painter knew there was filler, then surely he should have stripped it right down rather than just painting over the top especially after admitting the paint might not last? I wouldn't really be happy with that after paying for a respray.

Why was there filler on the roof out of interest? Was there a huuge dent?

Yeah, non-genuine washer blanks. Looks lovely though.

Great picture Mark. Both look ace.
