Will be interesting to see how you get on with this. Look forward to the YT videos, as no doubt you'll go more in-depth than anyone else.
Don't think I could ever get past the looks though.
Is it one of the Michelin Cup cars? There was (is?) a series for basically standard 197s that was associated with the main Clio Cup.
Still, as @Yorkshire Pudding says, that's still a decent price really. Got some nice bits on it.
I believe there is a guy in eastern Europe somewhere doing DSG controllers now, as a few people are starting to fit the 'boxes into other cars. I saw an off-the-shelf adaptor kit to fit one into a Corsa VXR on eBay a while back.
That would be interesting to see. Is it just that the friction material isn't up to the job?
Would be cool to see a few more highly modified ones, as there aren't many on here.
Success.
The gobshite persona made Moyles famous. Same with Clarkson. Shmee is no different. The hyper-jolly, "hi guys", business is what's made his channel work, so why change it? If you listen to the interview he did with Jonny Smith, he was very clear about it. His videos are very formulaic...
I must say, I wasn't a big fan of those wheels on your car in the standard colour. They didn't seem to work somehow. They look loadsssss better now they're gold though!
Power-to-weight probably isn't a million miles off a Clio, so I wouldn't expect much difference in straight-line performance, especially once you factor in drivers and other conditions.
Put both on a wet, muddy B-road and it would probably be a different story.
