Glad your back and sorted! Can't wait to get mine back as well. Andy is a good bloke, we've all been through difficult times so a little understanding goes a long way.

Thanks RDH
Cheers James, yea its so much fun to drive, its nice having power below 5k rpm.
Yea the torque makes so much difference over the standard car especially under that magical 5k rpm mark.
Haha thanks bud, im just glad its all finally sorted and I can enjoy it, it finally feels worth it
Very happy mate, its too tempting to give it a quick blip when im out so I tend to try and stay at home lol.

Great news Tom.
You've had some s**t with it but it's all sorted now and you have a nice, fast Clio now buddy.
The perseverance has paid off :up::smile:

Just caught up with this, love the excitement from a mapping session, reminded me of when I had mine done!!
Quick update nothing much.
My O rings were knackered on my map sensor so i ordered and fitted a new map sensor.
My f/n/s arch liner somehow flew off so i ordered and fitted a new arch liner.
I was checking the car over this afternoon and noticed that i had a cracked n/s/f fog light so i have just ordered a new fog light.
The car is still running brilliantly and i am loving it atm, theres a little patch on the front bonnet and a little patch on the rear bumper that i need to sort, and i need my wheels powdercoating(or new wheels, standard 182 ones or turinis if anyone wants to swap?) because the spray job i had done previously has a few chip marks, and i need a new horn because water has got in it with having no arch liner.
When i get these done i may consider selling it, im 50/50.

Always worth a punt!

Just be careful if your thinking of selling the beast incase J blows your bottom end
I need to sell before my camshaft f***s the big end while the crankshafts the cylinder's with lots of 5w30 lube.
I dont know tbh mate, I love my car and im worried that I wouldn't be able to match the performance for similar money, I like big powered glanza's and pulsars, evo 8's.
Cant remember if you have mentioned this mate, do they have tyres and centre caps?
How much you wanting?

Tbf it may have been someone else I mentioned it to, I've had them that long!
All have centre caps and have tyres with loads of tread left but 2 tyres are 195/45/16 and 2 are 205/45/16 I think. Would only want about £80 for them but if you're interested let me know and I'll get some photos for you.
Cheers bud ill let you know, it doesn't bother me about tyres tbh as I would be putting mine on.

No worries dude. I've been meaning to clean them up and bang them on eBay but I've just not had the time to do it as yet.
Glad to hear the car's still running well, definitely need to get a meet sorted so I can see it!
New fog light fitted today as my old one somehow had about 37 cracks in it.
Things to sort..
New breather plate needed, this got posted to me today.
Wheels powdercoated/new wheels.
A 10p sized mark on the rear bumper, this should be free as i only had it painted a few months a go and it has developed a crack in the paint.
A 5p sized paint bubble in the bottom far side corner of the bonnet, this isnt rust, water has somehow got underneath the paint when i had the bonnet painted a few years a go.
Then the car will be perfect, but i will be upgrading/maintaining parts as i go, keeping the exterior oem.

Either 182 or turinis mate, something more important always pops up that I need doing first tho and im trying to keep the spending to a minimum as I have another baby on the way
Congrats on the little one pal. I would got 182 over turinis there just done to death.Either 182 or turinis mate, something more important always pops up that I need doing first tho and im trying to keep the spending to a minimum as I have another baby on the way
