Hi all,
I picked up my Titanium silver phase 1 with ali bonnet and shift light yesterday and after an eventful round trip of about 500 miles, she's now sat in my driveway
She was already modded, some good mods... some not so good mods.
Italic number plates are going this weekend, standard ones in the boot.
M3 mirrors which are the worst, most useless bits of rubbish I have ever used - not that I could use them as I can only see my front windows reflected in them hehe
Lowered 40mm, stainless exhaust with sport cat (not sure of brand till I have a closer look)
Pipercross induction kit and 17 wheels.
No body mods at all, apart from the large dent a lorry with loose load on the motorway managed to put in the bonnet!
I couldn't do anything to avoid the large clod of earth and stone - saw it coming and just had to pray it didn't hit the windscreen - it didn't.
It hit the bonnet and bounced over the roof leaving me with a dent and missing paint in the middle of the bonnet
As with any car this age, although it's been well looked after by previous owners (belts done on time etc as well as new suspension and clutch.) I think it was previously owned by someone who modded it with erm... Youthful exuberance
So got a bit of undoing work to do as well as some small fixing up jobs.
On the point of mirrors, as I have M3 mirrors I might as well have no mirrors at all.
Are the phase 1 mirrors the same as Phase2/ 182 etc?
The phase 2 mirrors seem to be a lot easier to get hold of.
Thanks to all.
Looking forward to getting the Clio all sorted and having some great years with her!
