New Member Clio 172 Ph1 M444DRT, South Wales

[MaddRT]

Hi all,

I've been on numerous Renault OC's on Facebook for years with previously owning Twingos (GT & RS) so I thought it best to make an account & introduce myself here

I've owned my project ph1 since 2017. Some details below:
Registered Nov 2000 original reg X821 SNW
Titanium Silver
150,000 miles
Shift Light

I wanted to restore the car back to factory fresh, but with all the inspiration from the OC's then it did not transpire. Current spec:

• Tinted FK Euro Rear Lights
• Renault Clio Renaultsport Mk2 Trophy/V6 Spoiler

You can see the complete journey on Instagram @m444drt where I post not so pretty updates on what work we're doing as we go along - some exciting additions coming soon, watch this space!

Looking into coming to the Festival but the distance is putting me off, but you never know - might meet you soon!

Thanks

Maddy

Thankyou no, it needed some bodywork too and some rust treatment so it was all done by the same company

I like that, Standard lights and bright silver OZ F1's would look awesome though!
