Hi guys and gals
Another Newbie here, got recommended here by a friend with a valver and it looks very sexy around here. I'm a hardcore Ford owner with an XR2i and an Si, but the winds of change are nigh. I'm fed up burning more oil than petrol so I think it's time i endulged in some French-ness
I've got a budget of £3k-3.5 and I love valvers - Is there anything that comes close than a valver on full throttle at 5k+ rpm My friend had a real sh*tter for £700 and even that was giggle. Anyways, just a few boring run of the mill newbie questions. I've had a browse around and it seems I'm looking for FSH, rust on the rear arches, dodgy gearboxes, I've also heard about wiring faults with Renaults and told to steer clear, and he owns a Megane! haha. What else am I looking for when I go to look at one? Usual car things obviously, but anything specifically wrong with Clios like the infamous Mk3 Fiesta fuel cap!
What differences ae there between a Phase 1 and 2, aside from facelift front, wheels and interior? How many came with leather and ABS?
After a fair few sh*tty years with cars, I'm looking at getting something seriously good for my money so I'm pushing the boat out a bit. As much as I'd like a Phase 1 172, it aint gonna happen, so the valver is the next best thing and hopefully for this sort of cash, I'll get something to last.
My babysitter used to be Mrs Hill Power, they live down the road, so I doubt I'll be in any trouble there :approve:
Thanks a lot, sorry for any FAQs and repeat questions I know what its like with newbies popping up.
