I can’t offer any advice or comment on painting but I too wish you all the best and admire your dedication to the Clio and your sons memory to get it perfect. @gally does have a good following and a lot of respect on here which is earned so maybe a nice slow trip up there could be a holiday or...

Must go this week...... not in a rush to sell..... yep makes sense, typical bookface advert.

That is a really impressive idea! Looks great and better than a shift light

I’m pretty sure the wiring will be long enough, the only thing you’d have to do is fabricate a way for it to stay in place. Shouldn’t be too hard but I don’t think it’s been done before.

How so?

If you like the combination I’d still in your situation be inclined to wait for a better spec’d model to come up. Your spending a lot of money on it and don’t want to be thinking “I wish it had this and that”

Silver 200 with silver wheel isn’t a desirable (I don’t think) combination, so when you come to sell it it will not be as standout in the market. I’d keep looking about to find one you really want with the spec you actually want.

I’m not sure why but I thought the gearbox in the 200 was geared differently and stronger? I’m also sure the 200 is more ‘economical’ due to the gearbox change. I’ve seen people change the front end of a 200 to the 197 and 197 to 200 so it does divide opinion. I prefer the 200 front end due to...

That was you?? I saw that comment.

Apparently there’s a sad story or something which is the reason for the pimp my ride spoiler. I’ll reserve judgement till I’ve watched it, but it hadn’t better be a good sad story to destroy an escort cosworth.

Video not available :(

Thanks @eugegall, worth it for free!

spotted a decent enough looking Monaco 172 at mainline ford dismantles in Sawley, Derby. Up on a rack with most if not all bodywork, lights etc still attached. Might be worth a look if anyone in the area needs anything.

Hello and welcome. Seems a nice car from the picture. Get some more up please and list your ideas/plans

I’m having the same issue. I’ve downloaded the yahoo app and it works fine so I’m guessing it’s something iOS 11 based. (If your not running it then it’s just iOS based.)

I wish they would allow the fingerprint to be read instead of waking the phone up. My wife’s Samsung does it and it’s not even a high end phone.

Blue v6 spotted at island by junction 15 m6. Looked lovely!!

Absolutely beautiful mate, real credit to you. Don’t blame it being a forever car for you. I miss mine all the time!!

AWesome mate, and will look great with some tlc. I didn’t think cups had them fitted from new #becauseracecar

are you sure it’s not the really thing? Looks so similar.....

Beautiful!! That’s not just a Clio, that’s a dream car! Congratulations.

Hope things are getting better dude.

Perfect? Lol on a serious note, Becker do some standard looking ones and blaupunkt are good too. Had one a few years ago and it sounded good.

That sounds awesome Dave, much better than mine with the jcw cat back on it!! Not happy. Might have to resonator delete mine now, need more noise....

Bloody hell @cs_dave that’s gutting!! Hope your ok, if you are that’s the main thing. At least your handy with the spammers so can repair it easily enough. There’s plenty of minis being broken (don’t start on the minis though, killing Clio’s was bad enough!! Lol)

WOW!!!

That looks so much better @cs_dave !! I hate you though, I've done nothing but look at these since you've posted it!! I'm going to have to have one. Miss petrol forced induction cars. What's it like day to day? Yours is the 170hp isn't it as opposed to the older 168hp?

Just noticed It's got xenons and a facelift steering wheel on too, which are such an improvement over the phase 1 steering wheel.

Love it Dave. Even like the interior. I've got a real hankering for one but the cooper we had ended up a nightmare with one thing or another and the fact it's only 4 seats.

Hi and welcome! My 1.2 16v went on and on and on with minimal servicing, they stand up to abuse well. An easy upgrade for the interior is a 172/182 leather and Alva Tara interior, can be picked up reasonably cheaply now a days. Lowering and alloys is a personal choice really, but don't go...
