Ollie's Silver Cup - JMS RS2/Wilwood/2118

[.Andy.]

Typical. I've only just seen this was for sale ollie. With out a doubt I'd have bought her from you straight the way! I've been so busy with work lately I didn't see it was forsale!

Lucky fucka Tom!

 

[Sir_Dave]

Was an utter bargain tbh, no wonder someone snapped it up so quickly!!

Glad to see it stay in the club, in one piece ...

If you'd bought it how quickly would it have been a rolling shell?

Depends how much beer Mike's been swilling tbh, although i think we did a Ph1 in about 3 hours ...

Are you sure you aren't from Liverpool?

Just read through all 85 pages!!You must have spent 1000s!!! Look no offense but do you want it back? Clearly you're not well and I feel I've taken advantage of your condition.

This car is one of all time faves on here.

Just got a notification that you commented on this thread for some reason, possibly because I've commented on the thread before?

Totally agree with you there. When this was about I had a 1.2 Clio and dreamed of having a 172/182 like this. Been years since i saw this thread, so I'm going to read it again tomorrow when I should be working haha.

Read this through when debating buying an RS2, shame the car has been untaxed/moted since 2014 looked like a good one.

 

[Jekyll]

This was my favorite car on the site when this thread was active. I used to always look into this. May read it again for future ideas!

I know that chap (Toms_Clio) that bought it off Ollie. Was a very nice car.

 

[welshname]

This was the dream when I was driving my 1.2, he ended up getting a Mito iirc.

His SportKA was superb too.

Your car is beautiful @oliver.james :hearteyes:

Ollie sold it years ago!

 

[leeds2592]

And he's not been online for over 5 years.

Was still an awesome car though.

 

[Jekyll]

One of the best to ever grace this club imo.

This was/still is my favourite project thread (for a clio) on here. A really good inspiration and I always love going back and having a read through every now and then. Was the perfect cup imo.

3 years on and I still echo this. Great car!

 

[Jekyll]

100%.

After I posted above, I decided to read the whole thread from start to finish this week, finishing just now.

This is how they should be done. There was nothing tacky about this cup and all the mods was done tastefully. A real inspiration to how a 172/182 should be modified, even 8 years on. In fact, I've just saved some pics from this thread myself for future ideas!

 

[djp66]

Thank f**k I’m in holiday, that was quite some read.

Noted a few things, saved a few pics for future reference ?

Wow just read this thread from page 1, what a fantastic car. Shame to see it has been off the road for so long now! Whatever happened to it? Inspirational

It was sold and parts added/removed between this and a blue 172 cup iirc.

guy that owned it went to an Alfa Romeo Mito or something similar

 

[RustyMojo]

That’s a shame, I must be in the minority in loving Silver Clio’s. This was subtle, unique and well done. Alfa Mito...I don’t get! Ha ha
