After snapping the lower arm and bending the subframe, I decided it was time to get a new car. I had poured tons of money into my old Clio and got nowhere with it (mostly mechanical)
So one night last week after work, I bought a new Clio, for 200 notes, with a buggered Head. Having changed the engine in my old Clio roughly 3 months ago, I decided to drop my engine in the new shell over the course of the weekend.
Luckily, It's the same colour as my old one: MV632.

After getting down my brothers garage, we started stripping it down:
Turned out, the cam-belt had snapped and it had two bent valves. Nice.
So the new head went on, put everything back on, it works -Yay!
Other stuff I've done/in the works:

Other stuff I've done/in the works:
- Put a set of foggys on there.
- Ordered a set Lowering springs (can't find coilovers for a reasonable price anywhere)
- Looking for a set of Borbets/ATS/Turbines/172 16"s. - If I can get a set for a reasonable price...
