Progress has been pretty slow on this but I have acquired a spare engine(cambelt failure) for cheap to use to spice mine up a little. Spent Saturday morning stripping it down to check what the damage is, luckily it’s only a few bent valves and a mark on a piston so pretty happy with that. I...

Might have been me, mines got a white roll cage in 👍

bought this shed off eBay for 300 to tinker around with it's got fairly tatty bodywork and interior and a snapped cambelt so it's well dead at the moment. plans are get the head off and inspect the damage and rebuild(if not BER) then I will do a trackday and see what I break

fix it tweak it and track it

had a few years away from the clio game until this popped up locally needs a fair bit of work but it's a project car to start with got to investigate the snapped cambelt situation and see if I can reuse the head or not

spotted on campsite Newquay view resort
