My life falling to pieces and the club buying me a dog.
What most people don't know is the whip round money kept the bailiffs at bay long enough to setup payment plans and agreements meaning we didn't lose the family home,
My mum and I would have been homeless without this club.
Take her to a love hotel a hire one of the f*cked up theme rooms for an afternoon, she'll either be into it or realise there's worse things than a bit of casual car spotting.
I hated them when they came out, they've definitely grown on me over the years.
Any questions about any car, not just Clio's, you'll find the answer on this forum.
The more I've got into Porsches the more I prefer the air cooled lightweight classics over the fire breathing modern stuff.
Not often you see a 912, that would definitely be in my lottery garage.
It's going to Ryan's garage I'm not touching the it without supervision and a garage full of tools and knowledge, f*cking thing will fall to bits out of spite because it's sat there for years, that car has moods and can fight you if it doesn't feel like being worked on.
I can pikey the Golf...
I like genuine patina on classics and the olive drab NATO green military look, but I've never had the balls to do it because I don't actually like my cars standing out, not that I care what people think, I just like to be left alone.
It runs fine, it just has 130psi compression on three cylinders, 90psi on the other, it misfires and cuts out randomly, too many problems to bother fixing all at once, easier to just swap the engine & loom get it mot'd and see how it goes.
My plan was to get it back on track with an engine swap, then take mine apart and get it rebuilt over a year or two so I don't miss the money, then drop it back in new and improved.
That could be a Pandora's box of expensive problems, it could need everything, cheaper to wait for a good one and just swap it over a weekend with new belts and dephaser.
