[ADS_V6]

Limited market on here imo

 

[BlackGoldMatt]

Stunning car, I must of looked at the for sale advert at least 10 times this week... Temptation is strong here!

 

[182_steve]

But people on here appreciate and know what it is............. I've recently had the ebay time wasting idiots experience again selling my BMW, not worth the hassle if there's still no rush to sell

 

[leeds2592]

He doesn't really want to sell it, that's why it's only on here

 

[Ol’ Tarby]

He doesn't really want to sell it, that's why it's only on here :wink:

Yeah it's just to keep his Mrs happy.

"Look luv, it is for sale. I'll show you"

Being blunt it won't sell on here with who did the build clio turbo.If enfine dynamics had done it.I think it would have sold ages ago

This is so true unfortunately !

Surely the 15,000 miles that's been done post turbo install validates it?

This.


I'd have no issue buying Tom's regardless of it being done at CT

 

[BlackGoldMatt]

This.

Neither would I... I'm a few months of being in a position to view/buy it though, as current house work means I'll have nowhere to store it. I'll keep an eye on this thread and the for sale advert!

 

[182_steve]

Yeah it's just to keep his Mrs happy.

*Opens CS*

😂😂 that's the sort of thing I would do

Only downfall is the car and advert is great but as soon as the front door opens up for viewing and you see the window licker owner, you'd turn around and bugger off quicker than he's 182T accelerates :wink:

 

[Mr Plums]

Hi everyone, someone on here had planned to come and view the car this sunday, but he read more into the clioturbo saga, so he decided against it and i dont blame him.

I have had a lot of half arsed potential buyers too, ill not go into detail on here tho.

Anyway, i have decided that the car is no longer for sale and im going to take it further, fuckit!

The money i was going to accept wasnt what i wanted either, no fault of the potential buyers of course, but im thinking just keep it and enjoy it, it owes me nothing and for the money i was going to accept for this, my next car would have been a big disappointment.

I had it up for sale on here only because i wanted it to go to a potential enthusiast, not some 19yo chav with three teeth and a bent nose.

Thanks for all the genuine interest, now i can continue with my progress thread.

Tom.

 

[imprezaworks]

Good stuff, now get that window fixed. And the car you were thinking of trying would have bored you.

 

[ADS_V6]

Sorry mate I was genuinely interested
But the cost of the nose job and dentures are way over budget
Sorry

 

[Chris_Beer]

Good stuff

Whats up with the window?

 

[Mr Plums]

Good stuff

Whats up with the window?

Nothing now mate, well the passenger window is a bit backwards, when you press up it goes down and vice versa.

It originally stopped working a few months back so i ordered a supposedly passenger side reg off here, but it didnt fix the window, anyway a few weeks a go i ordered a window switch which fixed the problem, yaaaaay.

Noooooo!

I think the regulator i bought is for the drivers side because it only goes on one way, and i binned my old regulator which was probably fine lol.

So im going to put a thread up for a PASSENGER regulator in the wanted section.

@dann2707 have you got one mate?

 

[Chris_Beer]

Tried the drivers switch? That also plays up with the passenger side ones etc.

I just got a reg and motor unit with a switch off here for less than £20 posted, just ask all the people breaking cars, easy as pie to fit (as you know) !

Yes mate that was the switch i changed, it now has power and goes up and down, but wrongly.

 

[Clio_fool]

Csf ticket bought yet Tom?

It's a shame the clio turbo name tarnishes what is a now well sorted car. What's the next plans for it then? Lsd and coilovers?

 

[cs_dave]

its why i ad to sell mine so cheap as clioturbo name was agaist it ah well enjoy it tom

 

[N4TH4N]

How much did you want tom? Out of interest

 

[Mr Plums]

I am thinking trophy seats, coilovers, injectors, forged postons/rods, mapping to 330ish hp at efi, turinis, brembo setup, a bumper and bonnet refresh(again), have the backbox removed as its too quiet, re fit the aircon pipes/re gas, sort the window, get it detailed inside and out professionally, and maybe ask northloopcup to fit me a diff, but the diff wouldnt be for a few months as my car is a daily, i dont really need it on the road.

 

[imprezaworks]

Let's get the window sorted first

Lolz

 

[Mr Plums]

Let's get the window sorted first

Lolz

Thats the most important thing that the folk that were interested in buying the car, wanted me to fix lol.

Guys, dont be too honest in for sale ads, it gets you f**king nowhere.

 

[cs_dave]

Thats the only thing that the folk that were interested in buying the car, wanted me to fix lol.

[ADS_V6]

Go on holiday with the kids and have a break.Yes get it detailed etc but put the money on the family or buy shares in strongbow.

Imagine you got the window working, would have sold in no time. Maybe.

Probably not.

I dare you to go and get your third nipple pierced mate, and take a picture of the piercer while hes clamping it vigorously.

I'd go with everything in moderation tbh?

With grey hands

 

[182_steve]

That's great news.......... well maybe not for your bank account due to the plans.......... but great news all the same! You know the car and all that's been done and have made it what it is, keep it, enjoy it, those plans sound AWESOME!

Coilovers, Recaro's, Turini's etc = and :up: at the same time

 

[Jekyll]
