Another thread. This time its a little Clio billabong 1.2 16v thats been in the family since 2004.
Originally my mothers car which i learned to drive in way back in 2005. And then subsequently thrashed the life out of it when i passed until i got my own Clio.
My mum owned it up until 2018...
So, the Mrs did not like her RS220 Clio and wanted to go back to a german car again.
Criteria, German, White with black wheels, thats it 😂
Always fancied a 5 series again after i bought one years ago off @Daniel
Anyhow, stumbled across a lovely 520d with decent spec, wheels just powder...
Manged to persuade the wife to change her Audi for a Clio 220 Trophy.
Lovely 50 mile drive back and just about managed 40mpg.
Got a good deal from Martins Renault
Full Renault history
Just had the 6th year service
New MOT
New aux belt kit
New front discs and pads
New front shockers
New...
Another Clio for myself and @baysthebest
Snapped this one up on ebay a couple of days ago, didnt bother viewing it, just had it recovered to my house.
Its a great base for us being original with loads of recent work done including the cambelt, dephaser and water pump done at Beaniesport last...
Hi all, a friend of mine has a 182 trophy which he has for sale. In the past couple of days its developed a rattle from the engine past 3/4000 rpm, sounds internal.
He just wants it gone now so he can concentrate on his black phase 1.
Heres the advert thats on ebay...
Friends 182 is on eBay, 0.99p start, all original and it’s just had belts done 👍

Browsing Facebook last week I stumbled across this. 02 plate flame red 172, been in the family from new. Totally original, hasn’t been messed around with which is becoming almost unheard of now.
it’s been parked up since 2016 and hasn’t turned a wheel since. Was being sold as a non runner.
I...
Friends selling his 182 as he's just bought a 182 Trophy.

Ordered some new discs and pads today, thought I’d make a start stripping them down.
Removed the discs to find the spacer fitted which was nice to see but has it been fitted the wrong way round?
Pic of how I found it.
A friend of mine has taken a stab in the dark and left a deposit on this, collecting it this weekend, anyone know of this car?
1st owner had it from Sep 2000 until August 2020 😮...
I’m after a Clio 172 ph1 replacement coolant radiator, I’ve read the nissen ones are pretty good, ECP are listing them for £50 but I’m always sceptical with what they send out and if it will fit..
Has anyone ordered one from them? I’m aware that there is a slight difference between the 172s...
Finally got my hands on a totally original, un-messed with black phase 1 172 in black.
Was on eBay at a breakers yard mid last week, rang them up and purchased it over the phone unseen for an absolute bargain!
It was delivered today on a transporter and I’m well happy about how good it is...
Hello, looking to get one of these as the wife thinks her 2010 grand scenic is an old gits car, fair enough she's had it 3 years..
Anyway we need the 7 seats due to her business (child minder) and these look perfect!
Anyhow I know completely nothing about Mercedes in terms of what to look out...
Hi all, haven't been on here properly for the past 18months, but im back with a new toy, a Clio cup 172.
I've been after a Clio cup or a ph1 for a short while now, went to see a few but they were all dogs, literally couldn't believe some of the states the clio's are in now.
Anyway after seeing...
TT has gone so i needed a cheap car for the next 2/3 months until i get my company car. Picked this up for £500, Focus 1.6 with 83,000 miles, just had 4 tyres and discs and pads all round a few hundred miles ago from the previous owner.
Done a couple of things to it,
Power steering pressure...
I need a V8, well want one really. I'm stuck between both cars, the Jag and the Audi....
At the moment I'm leaning toward the Jag, they have a 400bhp supercharged V8, which to be honest makes me wet. 90% of people don't know what they are and what's under the hood. Quite rare, think I've only...
