Ok so as some of you may know i have been on the hunt for a phase 1

i picked this up today off Brendan whos a top guy

so again after everything ive said im on another clio my 8th i think it is now

gotta love em, but always loved the phase 1 the most





:) so im pleased now

the plan is to sort all the little niggles out and enjoy it this year at some track days and hopefully nurburgring in august

it needs:

thermostat
drivers window doesnt work, faulty motor me thinks
new steering wheel (brendan gave me a boss for it)
fit the new plates (already have these)
buy and fit some hid's off paul on here
and respray some of the interior plastics

these should all be done this week so ill update then set another bunch of targets

Hope you like :)

I don't get the blue thing?
Click to expand...

what dont you get?

lol the tow strap 99% wont be going on, but i love them and it looks ace in blue

same with the steering wheel cover

black goes with any colour tbh and i may even go blue with the wheels

i may not be brave enough though

The steering wheel cover was what I didn't understand? What's its purpose if you've just got a new wheel?
Click to expand...

are you serious lol

its not a cover to drive round using, its to keep it protected when not in use

or if i get a snap off boss then the wheel will need to be covered when put else where

Danith i went after college so took me a while as thats in Nantwich

yea its in macc

really good place

Looking really good, can't say I think the tow strap suits it though. Swap your clusters with the gentlemen above, lower it, and it'll look supoyb.
