    Aye, it's an easy enough thing to overlook.

    Removing seized wishbone bolt

    This might work if you haven't already gone out and bought a saw. Depending on how rusted the bolt is to the inner metal sleeve. Spray some penetrating fluid in first and let it soak. Now't to lose.

    Turini tyre recommendations?

    Yes Avon ZV7s. My old 182 had those on and they were ok too. Didn’t have them over the winter, but seemed fine throughout the summer. But you’d only buy the Avons if you didn’t want to spend the extra on PS3s.

    Turini tyre recommendations?

    I find they don't tramline as much as the 205s.

    Two techs are a rip off

    Removing seized wishbone bolt

    On my first 182, one of the bushes was practically welded to the bolt. I had very few tools, but I did have a blow torch and a hammer. It’s bloody horrible, smelly, smokey and probably downright dangerous ☠️ Buy a saw!

    To many it’s just a 20 year old Clio - sadly ☹️

    Coolant expansion bottle?

    That makes me feel a bit better Jon as it cost me £58 😐 Looks like a £12 eBay special 😂

    Freshly repainted for no reason in particular

    I like Black wheels on these cars, makes them look mean. Best colour when it's clean IMHO. Until you mentioned the gold detailing, I never noticed tbh.

    Coolant expansion bottle?

    Yeah, and it's what came with it. The cap off my old 182 bottle won't fit it either.

    Coolant expansion bottle?

    I bought this "Genuine" one from Renault and it has no Renault markings. In fact, it looks identical to the cheap one I bought off eBay for my BG a few months before. https://renaultpartsdirect.co.uk/parts/cooling-heating-parts/renault-clio-expansion-bottle-mk2/ Part number is 7701470460...

    Front offside caliper carrier

    Ok. LH side is 7701047928 RH side is 7701047929 You can’t cross thread a carrier as it bolts to the hub, then the calliper attaches to the carrier via the sliders. If the sliders are cross threaded then they’re readily available from Bigg Red...

    Restoring Little Bluey - my 182 FF ClioSport in Racing Blue

    I lobbed a really hot bolt into a glass of it and immediately filled the kitchen with smoke. It didn’t ignite as it wasn’t red hot - I’m not sure of the flash point - but I wouldn’t like to think there was a naked flame near it. I’m probably being over dramatic but I jumped out of my skin 😂 The...

    Restoring Little Bluey - my 182 FF ClioSport in Racing Blue

    Pushing on as I only have a few days spare between now and Croft in Sept. A morning on the brakes and changing the fluid. DS2500 in the rear. DS1.11 in the front with new Brembo HC discs. Always liked that combination. Plus it’s an opportunity to re-torque the bolts, get some more...

    Restoring Little Bluey - my 182 FF ClioSport in Racing Blue

    Thanks Rich. Just a fine balance I guess. Trying to get around Cadwell is tricky if you’re sitting too far back. Not too bad at Croft as the corners are faster. Incidentally, how’s your build coming on? Don’t see many updates these days. Still places at Croft on 25th 😉
