Dave's Clio 172

[Dave999]

Nope unfortunately money isn't going to stretch far enough. So ideally the one I'm getting is SJM's 172 engine with 197 cams ARP bolts & matched inlets

 

[Chi]

Good enough

 

[Dave999]

Yeah I think so

 

[Dave999]

Got the car back and everything seems ok for now just got that horrible feeling that somethings going to go wrong again

 

[Chi]

New engine already?

 

[Dave999]

No not yet just using this until it dies really cause I don't have any per way of getting around like work etc

 

[Dave999]

So I've got my quote for the engine swap now really happy with it. Good old diamond motors just got to get the engine I want and we're sorted!!!!

 

[Chi]

Diamond did the kangoo nuff said

 

[Dave999]

Diamond did the kangoo nuff said

That's good enough for me

 

[Chi]

That van engine was like new. . It could get 54mpg on a run and pulled like a train. . Cams? LSD?

 

[Dave999]

Yeah the engine I'm hopefully getting has 197 cams arp rod bolts and matched inlets just got to get it from Kent To me somehow lol so excited

 

[Dave999]

So complete turn around took my car to Mick at diamond the other day. He had a good look around and basically the engines fine if anything it's a good strong engine so that means more money towards making this one faster....

 

[Chi]

Thought you'd already bought a replacement. . Probably missed something, will read back

 

[Dave999]

Well it was as good as bought as i was convinced something serious was wrong but all is fine. Fair play to the lad with the engine for holding onto it for me was really appreciated

 

[Dave999]

Cars going up for sale soon. Anyone interested pm me.

 

[Dave999]

???

 

[Chi]

Why you selling mate?

 

[Dave999]

Need something better on fuel, working further away now

 

[Dave999]

Now I'm the for sale section

 

[plymcl172]

seems strange, these cars are fantastic on fuel

love the colour though

 

[Dave999]

Really boils down to wanting a different car and trying to justify it as this is such a wicked car. I definatly could do with something bigger though. The car is wasted me having it, needs someone who is going to use it to its full potential

 

[Dave999]
