As above - forget the timing belt and gearbox leak. Cancel that appointment and keep the money for replacement panels and labour costs for the shell. Why have the belts done when the cars going to be off the road anyway.

Personally- things like brakes I’d be keeping. It’s a proper kit and not a home made contraption. No harm in venturing off OEM with stuff like that, they won’t hurt values of keeping it original.

Absolutely stunning!

Stick an advert in the window for it at CS.

NOOWWWWWW THENNNN…! Turbo whistle and spool noises..!

Treat that vid as a sound check vid 👌🤩😂

Spark plugs and leads. Coolant hose repair tape (more so for the journey) Alternator belt Cam sensor. Shoukd have you covered for basic road side mechanics.

You’ll be amazed what will still come off the paint with a clay bar. Always worth using one IMO.

Standard one after porting will be the same.

Inferno is my favourite colour on these 👌 good progress.

Finished off my wheels with finally having a matching spare wheel. New tyre and bolted it on.

Tax is £210 for 12 months if paid direct debit. £200 in full. Online says 37mpg average.

They make so much sense for a daily. I think they’re brilliant.

Just keep a roll of hose repair tape in the car so you can get home https://www.advancedfluidsolutions.co.uk/black-silweld-silicone-self-fusing-radiator-hose-pipe-repair-tape-2756-p.asp

It depends on what you use the car for IMO. If it’s not your daily and just a weekend, local B road blaster. Then it doesn’t matter if you break down. Other side of that is, if you plan on doing a euro/ring trip - then no doubt a hose will cost you a recovery.

My father took the whale tail off his when he owned one, people were baffled. I thought it looked much better day to day. Edit: Just found a pic of a standard looking cosworth with the whale tail removed.

Halfords tool box covers 99% of needs for me. I carry it everywhere. It’s flat, easy to store and doesn’t slide about...

That looks absolutely incredible. I think I actually prefer the almost ‘raw’ carbon finish also. That’s got a proper 90’s F1 design look about it.

Where was this? Hill climb?

Best thing to do is end on a high IMO. You’ll have fond memories.

Genuinely take my hat off to you having the balls to drive it on track with those half front seats and no cage.

Renault Laguna 17” wheels are a good choice.

Have I missed something @SharkyUK No Trophy this year either..?

My work here is done.

@Daniel

The thread title should be named the Clio Harlequin. Love it.

Price, rust and perished bushes/stuck handbrake/ wheel bearings etc Has the engine been sat unturned?

That guys channel is utterly bonkers. I don’t know what to make of it 😂

Love that. Apart from the wheels. 197 looks better than a 200.

It’s probably been raised to get in the car park. They have air suspension on the front I believe?
