My sister used to have a Civic like that. Key in, ignition on, push start button. Utterly pointless! At least an Integra is a good car otherwise though. Her Civic was dull as dishwater.
Great result, nice to see a little Clio doing well. Door isn't too bad. At least it's a simple panel swap, rather than a rear quarter or something, could have been much worse!
It all depends how mad you want to go really:
My helmet was c.£350
An entry level HANS device is c.£250
I got my suit off a friend for £100 (someone had bought it, but only realised it didn't fit after it was too late to exchange it)
MSA starter pack is £99
Licence test is £180
I think you have...
I went from a Clio to a Megane 265, albeit via a Golf. Still have the Clio though. It's definitely a nice upgrade. They do have similar traits in some ways, but the meg does feel more grown up. In your budget, I think an R26 is the way to go. As someone above said, you're at the lower end of the...
@Pauleds has rallied his Clio, as has @EVOgone
They should both be able to help. I am currently rebuilding a MK5 RS2000 to do some single venues in also. As above, you'll need a copy of the MSA bluebook, plus a licence, so you need to order an MSA starter pack. https://www.msauk.org/ is the...
Yes it sounds like we're on a similar page. I had thought about something as similar as a length of L-section; so cutting a slot into the underside webbing of the GRP bonnet for the vertical to sit inside, then bond the flat into the bonnet. You could rivet and/or apply laminates over it for...
Thanks bud. Boot makes a lot of sense. The bonnet is an interesting one. Planning to start getting some weight out of mine but don't like the way that the GRP bonnets lift in the middle. Also don't want to fit the catches too far in as want to leave space for a lamp pod. I do wonder if a...
Looking good. Are you not running number plate lights/side repeaters etc? Not worrying about road legal?
Also, any reason you didn't trim the boot like you have the doors?
Final question, how stiff is the bonnet with the webbing removed? Does it feel like it might flap around or lift in the...
Ha! It's funny how the cars from those movies end up over here. My friend nearly bought one of the green Eclipses from the first movie that someone had imported to the UK. He probably should have, given what it would be worth now.
Joking aside, I do actually really like that!
It's big money, but a car is worth whatever someone is willing to pay for it. Would I pay £60k for a Clio I couldn't drive? No, but there are plenty of people out there with more money than they could ever spend, so why wouldn't they buy it? I expect that the car is utterly unique, owing to the...
I had a supersports on my Cup when I bought it, it was super loud. I binned it off and run a Klarius OEM one, which is style quite loud to be honest lol.
Deduction in points for not selling me the Williams wheels. I want another set :(
Yeah, I remember hearing one fire up when I was walking around a dealer years ago. They were just shuffling the cars around and still thought it sounded epic.
Absolutely love this. With the Cup spoiler it will look perfect. I'd keep the Williams wheels on it personally, think it looks spot on. However, if you want to sell them to me, that would be good too!
I must say, these cars grow on me more and more. With them being so popular, I think they're going to be a real used bargain. The engine seems super strong. It's a car I will definitely consider for the future.
