95 JWR Clio

[Oodlecherry]

Hi everbody, thanks for letting me join this community. I have a Clio that may stir a little interest. It is a 95 Champs Élysées that was modified by JWR at Kidlington before JWR formed ClioSport to make the specials. Before it came into my possession it had a chequered life with at one point a young man living in it for a few months. We had it given to us in 2003. I never appreciated the significance of its history and we laid it up in a barn in 2007. We recently decided to bring it back to life. It is now back on the road but has some issues that will be my project for the foreseeable.

if anybody knows good sources for spares I would be very grateful.

thanks, Bob

Welcome to the forum, Oodlecherry!

I will post images as soon as possible. Would welcome comments and advice. It doesn't look much but the best I can say is that even with its ageing 1400 it still feels good on the road. If I were to compare the feel I would say it feels like a caterham or an Elise with its low ride and the merest nod to suspension.

Love it
