Some stuff from the motorist today.
Plenty of porsches, there were even more GT4 RS's heading in as we left, so common!
Why would you ever raise the stupid wing?
Much nicer than the GT3 RS imo.
Looked nice in the sun with the twingo. Shame I didn't take a pic 😂. My child did with her crapple though.
The twingo looks cool in the rear view mirror.
My daughter messaged me the other day requesting a car wash day so after scrubbing the twingo that hasn't been washed since I last washed it I gave the clio a once over. The replacement passenger side headlamp was a bit scabby so I bought a kit to sort it a while ago.
It alleges minimum sanding...
You'll probably have to remove the rear panel to get the seat belt reel out. What was the advisory for the steering column? Mine said play in the column which tured out to be the universal joint but tightening it made the bloody thing creak worse than my knees do 😂.
I didn't find it that bad getting in last year. I parked with the BMW club so was sent around the farm and in via the exit road so avoided the main queue. I don't know why they don't split the files in two and send more cars in that way.
Jacked the clio up again at the weekend and checked the front suspension over. I even removed the wipers and scuttle to check the top mounts and nothing was loose or showing any evidence of having moved, then while talking to my dad about it he's saya the clunk could possibly have been the...
Check the jacking points on the sills. They get bent over and then rust from moisture getting between the layers and the sills rot from the inside out then.
Oh we're playing those games are we?
I move the car out of work this morning and the eml was on and half an hour later it wasn't. Maybe it just doesn't like motorway work? b*****d thing 😂.
New lambadambambas needed then? I don't think I've changed them since buying the car and it's on 70odd k now. Or it's just suddenly decided it's not happy with just the pre cat 🤷🏻.
Drove to buy the Mongdeo off @Klumpy Dumpy yesterday and some spakka in a fiesta cut me up causing me to brake heavily. This caused a clunk from the front suspension that's definitely not supposed to happen, so that needs looking at again. The car drove fine afterwards so that's a plus. Then on...
I've been enjoying driving the clio for a while now, they really are fun at not very high speeds and even more now that it's got a fruity exhaust note. But today I went out in the M2 and it's true, power does corrupt 😂. What a thing.

You can park yourself in everything they have available and may find something perfect you'd not consider otherwise.
