Yeah im not really into the shiny metal look mate & from the back you can see some of the backbox,so painted it black to hide it.

I would be up for this, sounds good, I am hoping to go to this https://www.cliosport.net/threads/m...reat-yarmouth-sea-front.815476/#post-11563040 if anyone fancies a drive over to the coast :up:

 

[MrBlonde]

Just a question of whos up for it & a date/location next.

Whos the furthest away from Essex/South east??

 

[VR46-G@Z]

I'd be up for a meet before the end of April... ! Unfortunately I can't make it any time after that with work commitments... I've never done a clio meet, I've also just gone to the dark side and got an EP3 Type R, I'd love to bring both...(my bro driving one of them):up:

 

[MrBlonde]

Maybe something over the easter break could be on order?

 

[VR46-G@Z]

Not a bad idea that MrBlonde!

 

[MrBlonde]

Where are you located tho mate?,as i guess most of us are not close so would be a meet in the middle kind of thing,i think 4 or 5 of us from that list are local to each other,ie essex/herts.

 

[VR46-G@Z]

I'm Mid/North Wales border... So pretty much no where near you guys....:tonguewink:🙈

Got to be me. Gutted. Both cars look amazing and great pics mark.

 

[Photomattbrown]

Would love a meet up with you guys but I’ll more than likely be working, just coming to the end of a nice 3 months off then it’s weddings pretty much every weekend until the end of the year. Any weekends I do get off I’ll probably have to spend with the wife and kids (oh and trackdays ) I’ll keep an eye on this though and if I can make it I will.

 

[imprezaworks]

Are you a wedding planner?

 

[Photomattbrown]

Great shots btw @Dr Jekyll

Are you a wedding planner?

No, I’m a Vicar

 

[imprezaworks]

Makes sense lol

 

[Photomattbrown]

[MrBlonde]

No worries mate @Photomattbrown

Thanks mate. That's a top compliment coming from your profession/skills :up:

Will do mate. My cup isn't as flawless as the ones in this thread but I'm working on it! It also has standard 172 'Alium' wheels instead of Turinis, but the lowering springs and the 3/4 number plate should get it looking smarter.

It even has an original cup splitter, with a split in it ironically!
