172 Cup
Hi There
Just bought myself a very sorry looking 03' plate Clio 172 Cup
Bought it off a friend and it was classed as CAT C, with all the bad weather last year by friend unfortunatly slid into a kerb on the drivers side and hit it with full impact. Whilst sat there he rang me i went to the scene and i was unable to move the poor thing, unfortunatly the AA was over run so we were in a very long queue of about 3 hours plus, so we got a warning triangle and some cones and tried to make it as obvious as possible, 30mins later some tool in a brand new 59 plate mini came around the corner, hit his brakes and slid into the back of the clio
Anyway 1 year on and my friends only just been payed out for it, its been sat on the drive and i couldnt resist but say yes to trying to save it,heres the damage
O/S/F wishbone is bent - Possible damage to the subframe
O/S/F Wing has a crack in it of about 10-15cm long
O/S/F Wheel kerbed but salvagable by the looks of things
Rear Bumper - Smashed
Heres the biggest thing, rear boot pan creased, each side of the inner arch is fine, just a small crease where the spare wheel mold is, im hoping this isnt going to be too expensive
Bar that the car is quite tidy, has roughly 65k on the clock
Recently bought a lower subframe for it which includes wishbones, ARB, struts and steering rack, now my focus is on the rear bumper and boot plan then small things like ball joints and bushes
Previously owned 106 rallyes so a cup is right up my street, my last 'toy' was a 1.6 Vtec CRX, heres a few pictures of some ive owned
Thanks Danny
