Popping a notice in this thread that my 54,000 mile totally original PH1 1 sunflower will be for sale shortly.
Has been part of my collection for the last few years.
I will be pulling it out of storage and getting a listing sorted soon but feel free to message me if you are interested in the...
Hello,
Im the owner of the car/ the business advertising it.
Its an absolutely stunning example I've had in my collection now for a year alongside a Trophy :)
Nature of my business means everything is for sale at the right price but its not a car I'd like to part with in a hurry, I won't...
Standard case of just not enough time unfortunately...mind you if anyone on here could recommend or even put their hand up to take on the rest of the project I'd be happy to ship it off and pay to get it finished!
A lot. Its getting belts done a service and detail then will be going up for sale. Unfortunately I can't keep them all and I have a sunflower that's taking up my garage space
So today's purchase was a special one, a clio 172 in Monaco Blue with just 8,988 miles from new.
Possibly one if the lowest mileage 172s in the UK? I'd guess the lowest mileage Monaco at least?
Weirdly I'd never had much interest in them until recently. The yellow one is a very special car but i also really like the originality of the white one.
UPDATE.....of sorts.
So basically the laguna has taken a back seat recently as my work has been mad busy. However this doesn't mean I'm lacking interesting motor related content to post.
I've been sourcing some cars to import and I'm sure there are probably lover's of these on here so thought...
I've got a car sales/ garage business mate. I built that unit as a photo booth/ handover bay. I am absolutely not a joiner or a builder and hated every minute of building this 😂
So because I like a project and clearly don't enjoy having spare time alongside the laguna I've also been building my new showroom/ photo booth over the past few weeks and obviously the laguna was the first car in there yesterday.
Today its been wheeled next door to the workshop and its time to...
So a little update today. Interior paint is done and it's looking good!
Now back to the workshop to begin the engine swap.
Still looking for a well specd gearbox if anyone has one for sale. Ideally with a gripper diff and final drive sorted.
So that's the cage finished and what a job Sam at ARC has done! As well as the MSA spec cage which has plenty hints to the original super tourer cage I've also had the spare wheel well cut out and replaced with a flat floor along with the rear seat brackets drilled out and removed and then front...
The whole thing weighed about 25kg so it's defo not going back in! The lad next door to me makes Custom Carbon fiber parts so I think I'll ask him to sort something
Sam has been studying photos as best he can of the super tourers cage so its going to be pretty close to that.
next big step after paint it so get the 182 engine in and running but before then id really like to find a gearbox with a diff and FD sorted. so if anyone can locate one id be very...
so. UPDATE!
I got a couple photos of the cage progress from sam at ARC today and so far so good.
Im also having him do a flat floor on the rear whilst its in with him so quite a good bit of work going on.
Im taking the cup racer seats down on monday next week i think to do some seat bar...
