Hello guys, been a while since i last came on here but looking for some recommendations on a local garage you guys may of taken your cars to.
it's just a couple jobs i need doing but due to work and crap weather on my days off i would rather just give it to some one to do for the day!
Next...
Good progress so far mate, i have just done abit of maintanence on my bonnet catch to hopefully prevent the trouble you had.
I'm only across in harrogate so hopefully area rep will sort out a meet towards warmer weather!!
Could they not of atleast used a better example of the trophy? not one with half its front splitter missing and the exhaust near falling off!:smirk:
like how he also forgets to mention the difference in maintenance costs!:smile:
I am hoping to come along as im yet to meet yourself and the rest of the guys so hopefully i will make it!
And so with todays update! I bought some dress up bolts for the engine but they didn't fit great and didn't look as good as i thought they would so decided against that! But then this...
Thanks for the kind feedback guys!!
Using my step dad and a strange array of tools! We used a 14mm spark plug socket with a spanner on that with a 6mm allen key in the top with the handle off the jack to get some leverage on it and then both of us pulling the opposite directions. How the allen...
Well hadn't realised it had been so long since i last updated this, unfortunately the clio has been on the back foot but im now back on with buying more things it doesn't need! And i just spend most of the time cleaning it.
love a good old snowfoam!
Most recent purchase is a whole new...
Saw the racing blue one in the public car park parked across from mine and the Liquid yellow was in the show field (fueled society). Both had cliosport.net stickers in the rear windows.
Up for whatever guys im pretty easy going but i would prefer a weekend meet so im not rushing around after work! Can't do the 13th -14th though as im at VW festival!.
Would be great to have a regular meet setup though!!
I won't be able to make this one guys as i thought it would be a good idea to enter my project car into a show thats in 3 weeks time so going to be pushing on with it to get it roadworthy in time! I will make sure to be at the next one though so just keep me updated on that!
@RenaultVirgin i only live in harrogate mate so if a local meet gets sorted i dont mind coming along and getting you if you like? Im one of the younger ones on here and im yet to meet people on here aswell although i have spoken to a couple.
Sounds like we have all had a bad time haha! I managed to get it clean and just as started waxing it rained! So no wax on the bonnet or front bumper! People must of thought i was crazy wiping my car in the rain!😂😂
Lovely car mate nice to see you giving it the love it deserves and needed! Love the touch with leaving the note i managed to buy my project car doing the same thing! It looks awesome in them pictures you just posted!!
Good to see you have a thread going mate!! Looks like your making good progress your self! I know what you mean when you say about typical corsa drivers trying it on! I just don't bother entertaining them!! 😅😅
Haha i will do not that i see that many about. Funny you say that i nearly bought an inferno before i found this one!
I will try to i am Looking at suspension upgrade next! they are great cars to own, i love mine, think im in the same boat as you when you say about keeping it for a while haha!!
In the run up to CSF i thought i would give it abit of love. Started with fitting a new kenwood DAB stereo and upgraded the speakers to some vibe blackair co-axial front speakers as they were the standard ones and for some reason the backs already had alpines fitted which makes life easier.
Then...
I think i will eventually i will get carbon door bullets i just didn't think the silver looks the best. Was never going to be permanent as it's not the best finish 😂
Thanks haha! Been thinking about the suspension as of next! Really dont know what to go for though.
I think it looks loads better over the standard silver on the RB's. Makes them look more in place although mine aren't done to the best standard.
Small update. Don't know if anyone is viewing this but seems like a good idea to keep track of progress. As stated in my last update i got some new wheels which looked like this when i got them.
Been plastidipped gold and reacted really badly so a colour change was a must!
Powdercoated in...
