The Clio Sport landscape has changed forever people. Put simply, the best Clio Sports are now in the hands of the best owners. The time has come for you scruffy little b****s to move onto something else 🤣

Certainly sounds like it fella. Conversely we've just sold our youngest son a property for half of what it's worth. They've just had a baby and he travels 300 miles each weekend from his work to see his new son and girlfriend. He needs his parents support right now.

Crikey, your parents did that to you?

Love those little bolts. Are they countersunk?

I did that the first time around to a friend. The conditions were he'd sell it back to me 6 months later and for the same money. He wrecked it. Never again 🤣

Last post from me tonight. Croft was a blast and the @FPummell car is dreamy. Check out the build if you haven’t already.

Thanks Dave. The ads been worth the entertainment value alone 😂 I might just sell it for £800 and wait for the lowball 😂 Don’t really want to sell her tbh.

Thanks Dave, much appreciated :) I couldn't bear to uncover the car after a few months only to find those horrible pad marks you get on brand new discs after lack of use. Certainly seems to be working.

Another great day at Croft in the old girl. Car’s not running perfectly as needs a remap. Sat out the morning session due poor visibility - as in I couldn’t see out of my windscreen 😂 Finally joined in just before lunch when things settled down a touch. Met up with Fred and James and their...

Yeah he needs a mic as he mumbles and i can't fathom out what he's saying half the time. His cars are crazy though. Thanks for the other link, i'll have a good look at that.

Not sure if he's been mentioned here but Matt Green's channel is good value https://www.youtube.com/c/MattGreen16v . He's currently building a Metro 6R4 from a Scoobie.

Busy weekend getting the track car ready for Croft on Tuesday. Needed to clean/bleed the brakes and sort a temporary battery out after those clowns working on my car dumped it outside for 2 months with no cover or care. 🤬 They’d also tried to jump start my lithium battery and fried it in the...

Very posh :)

If it's absolutely pissing it down i won't attend as i only have dry tyres and don't fancy dying 🤣 I did Cadwelll in the wet once and it's just no fun, plus my car doesn't have any heaters and no amount of Rain-X can clear the screen. Fingers crossed for a dry one :)

Good stuff. Looking forward to it even more now. Couldn't get a garage though so i'll be bringing the Gazebo just in case.

I am fella. Can't flippin wait!

I always vowed never to restore another rear axle beam yet here I am again 🤦🏻‍♂️ This one is particularly nice though with very little pitting around the spring area. On this occasion though I’m going to get it shot blasted as I think it’ll come up beautifully. The plan is to then...

So after 71 days I finally got the track car back. What a bleedin carry on. So the original diagnosis of valve failure turned out to be incorrect. All valves were perfect. Of course I’d already ordered some Supertech valves by then after finding out 197/200 valves were on back order. The next...

Booked the Black Gold daily in for an MOT on Friday and the bleeding thing failed on the rear Xenon level sensor 🤬 I thought I’d checked everything but failed to notice the small plastic clip on the end of the arm - the part that fixes to the rear beam - had snapped. Of course they’re obsolete...

That's a shame. Do you have an ISOFIX Bar and Cover you want to sell? Also after a good boot mat too.

That's what's left of the car :ROFLMAO:

Ok but it'll be 2 weeks before i can swap everything over. I've actually got a firm offer from a guy on the groups who's desperate to buy it. But i know he's going to track it, says he isn't but i know 100% that he is and there's no way i can let this car get wrecked. Buying a car off me is...

Thanks Russ. I'm switching the following: Cup springs and dampers F&R. RB has brand new Eibach springs but i don't like the ride. Rear dampers on the RB are brand new but non CUP. PMS Exhaust - Again RB has a pretty nice shiny new Scorpion system, but i like the PMS RB has brand new tyres but...

After constantly being let down by so called "Renault Specialists" for parts, i've finally decided to sell the Black Gold Sport, although it's not going to be in it's current form. The Black Gold has a lot of parts which i'm trying to get for my new Racing Blue version, but probably wouldn't...

I’ve only ever managed to take one out without smashing it. I always drill a bigger hole when I replace them so I don’t got through the same again. Horrible job

Made me chuckle 🤭 and so true!

Am I the only Clio driver that thinks the standard seating and steering position are perfect 🤷🏻‍♂️

Last job on Clio’s this weekend was to change the throttle body on the BG daily. It’s a bit of a luxury purchase but KTEC Racing had £100 off the price so I took the plunge. And it finishes the intake off nicely which got refurbished a few weeks back Overall I’ve had a good week improving...

With the rear end now sorted I thought I’d take a quick look at middle section and see what I’m up against. Started on the drivers side first. Hmmm might need a new side skirt by the looks of things. It also looks like somebody’s been here before as the panel and bracket were held on with...

Cheers Russ. When are you tackling yours?
