What are you on about??

Why would I rip it apart? Its been taken apart to paint it. Then it gets put back together. Then its finished. This isn't a massive project. Its not even a big one.

It will be finished by 11pm Thursday 2nd of August. Ga-ron-fcuking-tee.

Alright wind your neck in. I said that with your other mk1 project in mind so I hadn't completely lost my marbles.

Once you start spending big moneys it can be easy to get carried away as u see on here so many times.

The respray is a good move for sure.

And money... Its literally like pouring it down the drain. I reckon by the time its finished it will owe me over £2500.

Don't worry mate when I got my 182 fixed the bill was £2700

I almost fainted. Didn't matter though as I love it.

P.s this Naples is amazing

Nice! Is this one of the ones I linked up on facebook a few weeks/months back? Still tempted by one of these for a bit.

Good work, Fatty.

I wanted one of these so badly when I first got a Clio. Had it all planned that I'd get one after a year. Had to be Naples. Then I just couldn't find a decent one. Got impatient and bought a 106. Fail. Lol.

Looking forward to seeing it at CSS, naples when its mint (rather than the now standard issue patchy pink) is a great colour for a mk1.

They're on Renault Back order. The dealership I used to work for can get them in 11 days - 2 weeks.

I'm a bit gutted I couldn't get down there tomorrow morning to get some pics of it in primer.

I'll see what I can do.

No mate. I'll get CSS out of the way then i'll probably advertise it. If I don't get what I want for it then i'll gladly keep it, its not going to de value. My only concern is not having anywhere to store it as I don't really want it parked outside after spending £££ getting it painted.
