Buy it from CYC/i4D/other online outlets.. wash the car, rinse it off, hold your breath (seriously), spray carefully on to bodywork/wheels, you don't need to drown it.. give it 5 mins, once your lips are blue from lack of breathing it's time to rub where you've sprayed gently with a microfibre...

How do you think he affords to change his car every fourteen days ?

Getting better at PhotoShop mon ami. 7/10 for effort. Did it get any protection ?! It's the UV that nails the red in the paint. Decent wax/sealants should protect against UV...

De-badger .. machine polish .. proper exhaust .. add sensible lows .. job done ;)

Nice !!! Like the plans too... Mx-5's are fantastic little cars !

If you want a set of wiper blades, you can get flatblades from Tesco for about £3 each, or half decent ones online for about £8 each. If this is a Ph1 (and I think it is), sidelights look terrible anyway. Mine ran without any ! One kept blowing so I took them out. Wheels seems a bit odd...

Car looks tidy. Photos are a lot better than most of the 'media' on here ! PhotoFu*kit FTL!

He's not mentioned (in either identical thread?) about changing speakers ?! Another thread suggests 6x9s which is the worst idea assuming the sub is in the boot...

As much as I understand wanting the OE look, the OE headunits are awful ! You won't be able to cut the low stuff to the door speakers, so it'll just sound terrible, surely ?!

Re: Finally got a Clio sport, iv been missing out! Good work. The Renault splitters are something stupid over £100 but Skoda Fabia splitter does the job for £12 ! Without wishing to teach you to suck eggs, I hope you've got all the locking tools for the timing belts ;)

Re: Finally got a Clio sport, iv been missing out! You mean the ph2 172 cup with cup badges, cup spoiler and turinis ?! Yeah, that's a 182 alright.

Get a decent HU. Alpine etc... Stock HUs are pony.

Don't scrimp on tyres, kids ! Looks as if the cabin was reasonable intact, apart from the windscreen shattering into the general face-direction... As long as the driver was OK, who cares !

Ironic surname, Mr G.Clio, given that you've just about bought a Polo. Hope you enjoy it... (3cyl 1.2 petrol?! :dapprove: ) Don't become a statistic ! Will you stick around on here or are you off to join polosport.net ? Are you sure ? There are some world leading short-bus...

Re: My Phase 1 ITB Daily Runner *draws breath...........*

LOLz. I'd like to see them try with my bus !

There's three hundred billion threads on tyres already :rasp: Is your car mega-low ? My lowered ph1 on 15s had 50 profiles and it looked spot on (as it should). 45s seems an odd choice. GY F1s are £69 a corner on BlackCircles in 45 profile. Go to 195/50/15 and you have all the usual...

What do you think the catalytic convertor does ?! :S What do people think CAT stands for ? Why is it always in SHOUTYCAPS ?

Thread title disappoints :dapprove:

FLOL @ spending nearly 5 figures on your first car. Don't think I've spent that buying the 7 cars I've owned in the last 10 years, and that includes 2 RS Clios and 2 Imprezas. My first car was free FFS !

Have you tried a focus test ? Newspaper page on a table will do. Pick a word to focus on take a pic and see if it's in focus ?! If you want more technical help or test ideas, google it.. :rasp:

Wobble like that would suggest warped discs, or perhaps a sticky calliper. Standard callipers ?!

By your location and that description, I'd guess it starts with a Mc and ends in Laren ?

No more takers ? There was me thinking people on a car forum might be interested in cars :rasp:

Oh dear. The only way to avoid it is to remove your discs, or possibly buy carbon ceramic ones ? LOL !

Ring a garage and ask them ?! :S

Nice :star:

Aye that'd be Greggles.

[skip to about 1:00] Ooft. :S Part of me wants to laugh... part of me wants to ensure they are quite alright first !!!
