So, I'm going to try and create a thread that I will keep updated regularly! i've made a few before now when I initially bought it back in what would have been June 2017. It started out as a fairly low mileage (65k) 2 owner car that just needed looking after in the day to day. Apart from the short stint with its second owner it has meticulously been looked after mechanically all its life, and came with a file thick of papers and invoices. One interesting thing I quite like about it is that the first owner actually spent a few years in France and took the car with him so a lot of the invoices are from a french Renault dealership. When I bought it, it was fairly dirty and not looked after the best in terms of cleanliness as I actually got probably half a large pouch worth of tobacco out of it... and 3 years later actually still finding filters and bits even now. Although not often i must add.
Anyway, I bought it as my second car since passing my test and used it as my daily driver until 12 months ago. Jesus christ. The power from going from a 1.8 diesel focus.. to this thing, took me half my first journey to get used to the throttle
ever since then i loved it.. and the reason I bought the car you might ask is because when it turned up to show it to me the car has a full miltek system on it. Within the first month or so I spent a grand on it, a remap, full service as the belts were overdue etc and a few other bits which without looking wont fully remember! during the course of me owning it i've tried to upgrade where needed and its always kept clean and tidy although still a few jobs left to do from when i initially bought it like the centre caps for the wheels From mid last year its been my second car and where I should have been driving it for fun its largely sat on the drive where its caused a few problems with the window regulators, never had electrical troubles until it wasn't used regularly!
Anyway for now I'll try and upload a pic from when I bought it, and over the next few days i'm going to upload a few pics of it now and the jobs ive been doing recently and with some ideas of things I want to do to it in the not too distant future.
