Thanks I'll download the ddt4all and use my ELM327 cable / OBD2 dongle to make that happen. Is the ddt4all pretty much download and go? Is there a library for Renault that needs to be installed separately?

I need to the car to only start when the clutch or brake is depressed - It's a vehicle requirement here in Canada My car has a normal key not a card. Can I use the CLIP to force this options (i.e. clutch into start or brake to start) or would I have to faff around with installing some kind of...

No joy unfortunately

On the Clio 172's and 182's you could hold down 2 and 5 as you powered on the unit and it would access the master menu. This does not work on the pictured unit below - Is there a trick to access the menu that allows you to change the region? Or how do you do a hard factory reset of the unit so...

Normally the cars are cleaner on the underside and looked after well. Service history is normally very limited from Japan aside from the shaken inspections (every two years) kind of like an MOT but more stricter. I would pull a CarVX report which may give you more info on the car on it's time...

Well hello there Craig! I think I'll keep it as is for now. See what the paint is like as they tend to fade and you'd see the lutecia outline if I remove it.

The distance is definitely an issue!

Yeah, Honda still own the naming rights to "Clio" in Japan - So I think it will continue for the foreseeable....

Some photos at port before getting shipped: Ordered some replacement carbon front seats with rails directly from Renault as I hate the stock ones so so much.....

Pretty clean on the underside also!

Secured this at auction yesterday. It has some nice parts like an Akrapovic full exhaust system, cup / Speedline wheels and Bilstein coilovers.

So cool you still own this after all this time!

@Scougar looking for a UK car a LHD example? Have someone selling nice Williams in Canada that would be an easy export/import into the US.

@Poopensharten agreed!

Sourced an new Genuine Renault R26.R half cage earlier last year and finally got around to installation it. This particular R26.R came spec'd without the optional cage so I always felt it was missing. Little change but makes me happy when looking from the outside in.....

From a visual standpoint I 100% agree with you

Somewhat - Front bumper and rear wing, yes. The rear bumper is an aftermarket brand which has the GT3 style slotted vertical vents but retains the C2S quad exit exhaust. I'll see if I feel the need to slap on a GT3 rear bumper to complete the look but this car has the PSE (Porsche Sports...

The C2S had made it to port from the auction house - Anticipated into Canada end of March / early April once the snow has mostly disappeared.

I have been on the hunt for one of these for a while. Delighted to have secured this one from Japan that will be here in time for spring!

New daily on it's way to Canada - The R Barge - Got to love the Atacama interior...

The Alfa doesn't get much air time or time on the road. Sitting on some new B16 coilovers with only 12,250 miles on the clock still.

Amazing!

Been to Jasper quite a few times and pass through the Columbia Icefield on the way there which is always amazing. Unfortunately an out of control wild fire is destroying Jasper currently, so bad times up that way! JASPER WILDFIRE INFO

Lots of confused people when I drive them around. People really like the 197.

Also have got the V6 out of storage and given it a once over before heading out to the mountains for some fun!

Got the yellow R27 all buttoned back up and have been enjoying it lots. Have a cup spoiler at the painters so hopefully install that this weekend which will finish off the look, wheels need to be re-finished and that is also on the list!

Does anyone know the part number or the correct clips that secure the side skirt the to the rear upper side of the car? Like the white ones shown in the picture below, you can see three visible on each side skirt.

It is currently 1 of 2 in Canada. There is a chap that imported a black one from France that lives out on the west coast.

R26R is now in Canada and being prepared for inspection! The "R25" F1 Edition has now been put up for sale: The 197 F1 is having a new exhaust manifold and dog bone mount installed, dropping the front subframe wasn't too bad (id recommend unbolting the steering rack from the subframe)...

She gets loaded up onto the boat this week. Should be in Calgary by the end of the month all going well! Thanks for all the help on your end.
