For Sale - My track Toy Clio 172, needs gearbox - on eBAY - Woking

[Spurs Fan in a Coupe]

As title,

I have had the engine replaced after my fellow owner (and just about still friend) blew the clutch/engine my changing from 5th to 1st whilst on a track day.

Replacement engine sourced from Tim Finch, fitted and running well.

Next track day gearbox (again a replacement from 172 cup) blew.

Time to cut my losses.

On eBay 99p genuinely no reserve.

Cash on Collection only from Woking, Surrey.

Lots on nice extras

Engine recently replaced from reliable source
Sits on Eibach Federn XQ springs
Braided brake hoses fitted
ToyoSports stainless steel back box (cat fitted)

Negatives

How the heck did he go from 5th to 1st?! Have you been pumping his missus or something? It's not exactly something you do by mistake..

A fair question and not one I'm likely to ever get an answer to, the joys of shared track car ownership!

We went halves on the replacement engine, but the blown gearbox has sent our relationship over the edge.

A shame really as it went so well before hand, on slicks or semi slicks it was a terrific little car.

That's a shame mate. Looks a good base track car for someone
