Indeed, almost eight grand of free goodies. Given i'm about to drop the engine out of mine, sign me up for some of that! I'll go create a youtube channel now lol

More cleaning and painting Got the cooling system together (HOLY s**t jubilee clips have got expensive!) Shiny new Mikalor's for the boost pipes And then I ran it up for 20mins, up to fan temp. Let it run with a fan on for a bit, heater seems to work OK, no issues to report...

One has been busy of late, including a blast across France and Germany for laughs. Saw a raft of 21 Turbo at a French show, been so long since I saw them in these numbers. It felt GOOD :D This white Ph2 made me pine for mine a bit, I have to admit. Aaaaaanyway. I have also continued the...

The Clio has been an absolute delight to use - can't believe its nearly a year since I bought it! We went for a bit of a jaunt to Montlhery & the Ring :) Even popped by Reims. I had a work trip to Portugal on Tuesday afternoon, so I left the Pistenklause at 8:30pm Monday night and was...

They make the inside a little bit more special :) I got rid of the hideous Ph1 steering wheel too.

I have one, i'm 6'6" and my kids (14m/16f) and 6'1" and 5'11". We fit in it fine, for a Clio its got decent room. I just did a 1300 mile round trip to France & the Ring and it was lovely. MPG driven normally I get 30-ish mpg, on steady cruise up to 40. Obviously the faster you go the less you get.

I'd say more than that even. Got to be five figures in the bodywork, let alone the rest.

Did you have the engine bay/under carpets/front (not) engine bay done too?

I hope my Mrs doenst see this, she will have mine up for auction in 3.862 seconds lol

I was quoted £14k by Option One for mine. I ended up taking it all the way to Aberdeen (from Coventry) and got a really, really top quality job through a friend for a quarter of that which made the 450 miles each way with a trailer well worth it!

That does look like a lovely paint job doesnt it!

I did think that, the aux belts on it are old and need changing so I think it'll probably get attacked when I change them :)

Usually you get a few stutters but id ran the fuel pump for a bit by bridging the relay over, so she popped up on all four right away :)

Continued assembly of the engine bay, alternator and power steering pump on Hoofed some oil in it as well, primed the fuel system with some fresh fuel and... (this was genuinely the first turn of the key too) Gave the shafts a clean up to finish

I gave the alternator a clean up and dusted a waft of silver paint on the front Then I got the remote oil cooler pipes and freed up the collars, making sure they were well oiled. These are a sod for seizing to the pipes and then you have to wreck the pipe to get it off. Three were fairly...

HT leads cleaned and attached New fuel lines fitted from the hard pipes to the reg/rail And there's that little woggle for the TDC sensor wire :) Cleaned, painted and fitted the power steering pump rear support, this is also an earth point and the bottom bolt holds the oil level...

Refitted some easy trim and stuff while I was sorting, this is the primary intercooler bracket/surround (the 21 has two intercoolers from the factory) Clutch line located and connected to the slave Oil cooler/Aux coolant pump bracked refitted too And then the engine loom mostly routed...

New plug needed here Cleaning and sorting this took so much time, but its done properly so I lobbed it back in the car and then started sorting through boxes.

Garage is like a sweat box at the moment! I lost nearly two kilos on Saturday lol - still, cracked on! Got all the bellhousing bolts in, I couldnt find the ones with the car so I had to raid my stash of spares. Water pump back housing threads cleaned and fitted Turbo support fitted...

Same, I commented on a set of Phase 2 V6 wheels for sale saying "if I was after a set i'd rip your arm off" and that got me a 3 day ban...FFS.

@Sunglasses_Ron @Daniel can we get the image gallery link/instructions shared out on your socials please?

Club event yeah, it did the Alps in 2016, then pottered about locally until I built the garage and it got took apart in September 2018.

I'm also a believer in building the car you want, not the car other people want and worrying about resales value, mileage, and whatever else. I've got some experience in the area with the Vee too, drop me a line if you need any help, theres a great community of owners here in the UK. I've...

I'd really like to get another one done properly like we had in 2015 (wow is it that long ago?!) - maybe next year. If we could tempt him up again and get him out with Katie for the infield track pictures....
