Chi's Clio Collection

[Amos91]

Just saw this pop up, guy job lot bought all of Chi's Clio's totalling 13 cars. Giving @Ant1 a run for his money 😂😂

Bird s**t all over the Recaros is a nice touch!

 

[imprezaworks]

That's by Carl's unit I think. Not watched it all though

 

[Adamm.]

I don't know why anyone would buy and hoard all those. Most of them looking in a sorry state too.

Sure the buyer probably got a bargain and could sell them off individually for a nice profit so fair play.

 

[imprezaworks]

Wonder what he paid

 

[Clio_fool]

Yeah I reckon they've bought some moneys worth but why would anyone hoard so many bloody clio's? Are they sure he's not a clio specialist that's just sold them a load of customers cars he can't be arsed to finish?🤣

 

[Usr117063]

Money laundering

 

[gambit]

Quiet a collection ! Where is Chi gone these days? and why sell up such a collection.

 

[McGherkin]

I did wonder where Chi had gone from CS. Do see occasional bits from his company.

I though @bloke was located further down south?

 

[Flat Eric]

Some of the states of those cars 😳
The bird s**t recaros as well 🤣🤣🤣

I recognised the silver phase1 with the gripper diff....

 

[leeds_182]

I bet he gave 15k for those which is a bit of a bargain really .

 

[imprezaworks]

Reckon?

I would have said 25k

 

[Coops Mk1]

lol at every single one having some form of badmanz modz on them, plenty salavgeable but my god what a pile of sheds

 

[Stay Puft]

Jesus christ, he can’t be well

 

[Sunglasses_Ron]

Looks like Chi played a blinder!

 

[Conor03]

Looks like Chi played a blinder!

depends what the price was, could have been a right bargain

 

[Krarl]

f**king hell

A bottle of polish and hes got 10k back on that cup

 

[leeds_182]

Reckon?

I would have said 25k

At a stretch 20k.

 

[yeecup]

bet the belts are due on all of them.......

 

[Sunglasses_Ron]

I spoke to Chi earlier and he confirmed they are his old collection.

He’s also got some MPS’s and a couple of campers for sale.

What happened? Has he been in prison or not very well or something? Letting them deteriorate like that, coupled to setting fire to £1k’s worth of seats minimum by just not moving them, seems nuts.

 

[Flat Eric]

Seems a shame doesn't it.

 

[Greeny.]

Whos Chi?

 

[imprezaworks]

Was on here a good few years back.

 

[R-Sport.]

Chi was the equivalent of a clio hoarder. I remember what 5 years ago he was buying every modified 1*2.

Sad to them in a s**t state> ones of them has just gone up for sale on FB for £4500
It looks ok all be it a bit tacky > low boost & a few max power mods, will appeal to some..

 

[Ol’ Tarby]

Chi was the original Ant1

 

[Djw John]

Always wondered where the blue esploding into amphasite wheels ended up.

 

[B-shaw557]

I went to look at a ph1 of Chi's before I got my exclusive 5 years back
He had a few then, but not this many (that I saw anyway)
Had a really nice boosted Trophy there, Don;t think the one I viewed is i the collection anyore either.

Proper sound guy though, always been mega helpful
Think he may have had a driving ban at the time I went down,

 

[imprezaworks]

Yeah I always got on well with him. In fact I think I was one of the first people he met on here. Borrowed some prima amigo from me. Which reminds me, pretty sure I never saw it again lol.

 

[Ol’ Tarby]

Yeah he always came across as a nice guy. Did he fall out with a few in here which made him leave? He used to be one of the most active members at one point then just disappeared

 

[MarcB]

I recall him and selling a load of parts to him.

He bought one item and then came back and bought around 15+ items all the same.

He vanished off the forum and was around in the early CSOC Facebook days but then he vanished from there also.

 

[imprezaworks]

Iirc. Wasn't he stopped from selling stuff and cars, and just left.

Think something along those lines.

 

[Krarl]

Chi was sound tbh. Spoke to him a few times on Facebook and was always polite, we bought and sold each other some right shite😂

I can remember the first thing I bought from him, a 3M headlight restoration kit😂

 

[imprezaworks]

Yeah didn't he sell a load of those for like £20

 

[Krarl]

Yeah didn't he sell a load of those for like £20

Yeah all the creations from CSOC promoted him like a drug dealer😂

 

[Sunglasses_Ron]

Chi didn’t want to become a trader so he went his own way.

Shame because he’s a lovely fella. Met him up at RS tuning a few years back.

I still chat to him every now and then on messenger.

 

[davo172]

Met him too really nice guy when he had the 172 kangoo wondered what happened too him did that prick Revels upset him?🤣 he loved giving it the Billy big b****cks to anyone selling anything if they weren't a trader!

 

[gambit]

I’d probably guess health reasons.

 

[Pauleds]

I met him a few times round at his, and drove some of the cars with diffs to try them before i built my gearbox. Nice chap.

 

[MarcB]

Does anyone actually have an answer as to why he kept them the way he did or why he never sold them off and kept a couple ?

Just seems crazy to off load 13 clios with some good decent parts on them.
