Finally my new car....

[Middo]

Just taken some quick pics of the new beast. I'm in love, it makes me smile everytime I drive it, i'm so glad I sold mine and took the plunge!

Planned mods for the near future are :-

stick some elf excellium in her as the last owner had her serviced at renault (so will be running s**t oil)
New panel filter (k&n) already ordered
fit new steering wheel (sitting on the side ready) which is a momo evo millenium wheel
wheels - I wanted some oz f1's in anthracite in 16 but they've discontinued them now, so will prob go down the ultraleggra route.
suspension - KW, koni coilovers or H and R's
clear repeaters
fit my plate
colour code
ph2 rear lights

Decided against sticking any ph2 parts on it (bar rear lights), just wanna keep it as mint and as original as possible.

Really chuffed with the condition the seats and bodywork are near mint. Car itself is on 54k, and came with 9months renault warnty which is nice. Also just had a brand new exhaust fitted (hence why i'm not having an after market one fitted yet).

Finally a BIG THANKS to hodgy for running me the 200 mile round trip, in exchange for only a whimpy, really appreciated mate.

just some quick overcast pics...

thanks for the comments guys i'm chuffed to bits with it, never expected to get hold of a yellow one, as they're so fooking rare nowadays. Went a renault dealership today to buy the oil and came back to the car to find a load of salesmen swarming round it lol.

 

[Stevie]

Well i've never seen one in the flesh. How many did Renault make in that colour, as i only ever see silver and black MK1 172's?
