I believe a slight leak on the cam cover is a common thing, mine certainly has a very small one too so I wouldn't worry about that too much unless it is quite bad.
To me it sounds like you have already talked yourself into it so get some pics up when you get it haha.
Good luck with the ebay idiots Dan haha.
I really want to move up to a megane from the clio but I'm desperatley trying to be good and put all my spare money towards my house deposit, so far I'm managing!
That one worked yes!
It's 1 hour 45 mins according to google maps, it takes me 20 mins to get to the motorway which slows down progress somewhat, I'll make it to one of these anyway :)
The tag for this didn't work for me.
I'll try and get to a couple of these but it may be a bit of a treck for a regular thing for me (just shy of 2 hours each way), I'll give it a go though :)
He's selling it because he's got a focus ST now, needed something bigger, I'll fire him the link to this thread so he can come in so you can ask him any questions :)
This is Adrians car, he is indeed on here as @Ade182, he has a progress thread on here too if you go through his profile.
Absolutley awesome car, very well looked after and he's a spot on guy.
A couple from me that I am happy for you to use if the owners of the cars don't mind :)

The roots and shoots meets were the best bar non, although in every video on the industrial park that I appear in I'm in the background queuing for the snack wagon haha!
Good to see you back buddy.
As above I wouldn't be worried about milage if the car has proof of being looked after, just check for the belts being done at somewhere reputable as the timing can make or break how the car feels to drive.
Mine is on 110k now and is still one of the most reliable cars I have owned, also after...
I can't link to it at work but evo magazine uploaded a buyers guide this week which may be worth a little read for you too :smile:
Edit: it seems I can so http://www.evo.co.uk/renault/clio/6245/renaultsport-clio-182-buying-guide-last-of-the-old-school-hot-hatches-for-under
Excellent work, as you said there's certainly a sub 8 mins between you and the car.
On a side note I think car throttle are your number one fanboys these days :)
This is Adrians car, @Ade182.
Beautiful car and I can vouch for how well everything has been done on it, well worth a look if anyone is looking for a turbo clio.
Gives me something to go on then thanks! I'm a really awkward size, I'm 6ft 5, slim (32 waist) but with really wide shoulders so finding a seat is a nightmare.
I'm aiming for a set of these myself at some point, I've read that they are quite a narrow seat so I think i'll have to find somewhere to try them first.
