Lol, uh huh.

I wouldnt sell the flamer for one but I massively regret not buying Iains. The appreciation would've paid for the interest on the loan!

I'm awfully tempted by one currently. I'd put too many miles on one though :(
 
Some of you may remember my 1.2:

Two cars in between, then my 172:

Another two cars in between, now my Trophy:

Hmm we could be here a while for me...
My first ph1 back in 2005 - 06
STA70287.jpg


Just stripped out, buckets, exhaust, air filter and matched inlets. Did 187bhp on the stock ecu map!

That ended on its roof sadly.

I bought this to replace it 06-07. (I bought another ph1 16v which was needing too much work so I broke it)

As I bought it
STA70376.jpg


Then a 172 conversion which I've lost pictures of :-/
STA70520.jpg


I then sold it and bought an Evo 2, which I was nearly bankrupted by. So
I swapped it for a Williams 3, which I've lost pictures of.
My ex girlfriend who still was a little but emotional about me leaving her then paint stripped it and wrote It off.

I then bought this in 2009
SS100021.jpg


Which had a certain folded tuning company's "208bhp kit" or 184 at my local RR.
It then dropped a valve, and went through 3 engines. I then converted it to run ITB's and mapped it myself. Never had it on the rollers though.

SS100054-1.jpg


The gf also had one:
SS100053-2.jpg


Then I decided I wanted to 20vt it, so started that but then split up with a long term gf and wanted shot of any memory of her so broke it for spares.

I then bought this (2010)
64734251.jpg


Then sold it for an Ibiza tdi as I was doing alot of miles and I felt it unfair on the DUF.

c1708353.jpg


I then stopped my commuting and bought this (2010)
e0724bf1.jpg


280bhp LCR.

My dad wrote it off just 3 weeks into ownership.

I bought this as a replacement
4d3e3a9e.jpg


Did a few bits like:
Fujitsubo exhaust
Cusco cage
Tein coilovers
3 point strut brace
Fujitsubo manifold

6304ebda.jpg


Got itchy V5 syndrome again and sold it after 6 months and bought this:
2069d175.jpg


eb03e51e.jpg

I HATED the front bumper but couldn't find a replacement one in white.

But it was too much for a daily, the power delivery was awesome but when commuting via country lanes it was getting wrecked so I sold it on and bought this (2011)
3b308493.jpg


Did quite alot to that.
GT2871r
Tubular manifold
Massive FMIC
turbo back milltek
Forged rods
DMF conversion
WMI
KW V3's
Neuspeed ARB's

Saw 363bhp and 341lb-ft of torque.

I wanted to enter Combe saloons so started the build then realised that with Combe regs I'd only be able to run it for a year before it became out of date so abandoned the build and broke it for spares.

I was driving a Laguna 2 DCI at this point but won't bore you with that.

I then bought this as an MOT failure (2012), as I'd driven Emma's cup quite a few times and was pining for another clio.
IMG_8301.jpg


Didn't do anything too much to that as I sold it within 3 months. (Recaro's and cruise control)

I then bought this (2012-2013)
7DAC4EE8-E0BE-4F6D-BBEE-268FC4A2176B-1055-00000068F60E74DB.jpg


Which became a bit of an obsession to get 200bhp out of after becoming good friends with chip.

C27F7EAC-7AC1-43F8-8ADD-B7892250CC2D-1055-000000690D71D42C.jpg

So:
RS2
197 cams
Decat
Saw 192, chip convinced me he thought 200bhp was there, so next was a Yozza exhaust which got 197bhp at 7500rpm

Needed more revs so ARP's went in, another map by chip got this:
14DDBB8E-ACFD-4BE6-B5E3-763D6CD29A36-21790-00000ED65CEB97AE.jpg


Other mods were Rear arb, B14's, TD 1.2's, recaro's and cruise control.

The rs2 got sold and the car leant to Vikki and i put my cup on the road:
FC9A8EA2-57A2-46D1-846E-5C0DE28EC17E-23334-000012EA3BCB1EA7_zps8242628e.jpg


Sadly, it lasted 3 weeks before it got collected by an out of control BMW at Combe.

I then bought this Audi:
25058D18-68C4-4DAC-8C3F-C668F138743C-1683-00000180A987CEA8_zpsdb82249c.jpg


Which I was bored of after 2 weeks. Too refined for me.

and due to reasons of Vikki's previous employer we need to source a quieter one so we bought a black
Ph2.
Which had the gearbox from the Monaco and the engine was sold.

She's now got a cup spoiler on it and that's it.

I then was offered the next one by a good friend.

Which was on ITB's and a knackered engine. Being me I got bored of it quickly and super charged it and here it is today...

First car, brand spanker, 17's from r30bc who hasn't been on here in yonks, the first set of angel eyes from k-tec, led back lights and Ibiza splitter, and a k-tec induction kit that I sold to Dutty, sounded great for a little 1.2!

And after all that I've gone and bought another Clio! Picking this up on Saturday

6c80d503de7d3d12f9bcc0e509bf2d2c_zpsbce88634.jpg
 
This black clio was my first car, turned it in to a valver rep

Picture007.jpg


Picture008.jpg


Picture249.jpg


I then got a blue valver and fitted 2.0 with cams, the engine blew up and so i broke the car for parts

newbonnet020.jpg


These were both mine, the Williams was broken for parts while the black car was my own car, it had a williams engine with cams/wide track/wilwoods e.t.c e.t.c

100_0525.jpg


Crashed into while it was parked up, the person who did it cracked their sump and so left an oil trail all the way to their house, got paid out through the insurance and reshelled it

DSC00484.jpg


Reshelled, i put a low boost turbo engine in here, then made it high boost then removed it and when back to a williams 2.0 then to an itb'd F4r

DSC00643.jpg


DSC00181.jpg


These were both mine

DSC00023.jpg


The white valver With F4r got broken for parts, i would remove the ecu when i stored it at my mums garage to prevent theft, this seemed like a great move until the ecu was lost (im fairly sure my Girlfriend threw it away) The DTA ecu was going to be expensive to replace and i decided to move on, Since then ive had Pulsars/200 sx's/mx5's/A3 turbos/golfs/172's e.t.c e.t.c ive still not found anything im happy to keep long term.
