Hi all,
Having recently sold my MK2.5 MX-5 I was on the verge of swapping to a 135i for another fast-ish road car.
At the last second though, I had a change of heart and decided to propose buying an older hot hatch and converting it into a rallycross car to race in the amateur league next season.
Within a week of coming up with the idea, we (joint venture with a mate from work) had bought a tatty but (seemingly) mechanically sound RS Clio 182 for very little from a second hand dealer.
Unfortunately a growing list of things have begun to go wrong within the first couple of days of ownership, but this isn't going to spoil the fun.
After a few quick spins in it I'm loving it already!
Looking forward to being part of the RS community.
Will post some pics of progress at a later date.
Cheers,
Dan
