...Scarb Green dCI

[xakazulo]

Well, this is my little Clio. It's a 1.5 liter dCI 82 hp, (nothing like yours 172/182 😅), and I am starting to do a project with it.
Personally, it's has a colour that I really enjoy it, the scarab green, and it isn't a common colour in the Mk2 phase 2, at least here in Portugal.

Currently the only mods that it has are, Sport grill and a Fiesta splitter.
Planned are some new alloys (Oz F1), RS Steering Wheel, side skirts, lowering springs, and some little things on the engine.

..my future "French Bulldog"🤣

There should be more green cars

I love scarab green, I had an exclusive and that was my best bit

 

[Krarl]

That number plate would be worth £250,000 easily in the UK 😂

That number plate would be worth £250,000 easily in the UK 😂

...well, they are 10 euros each here in Portugal. 😅

From the Essex to Lisbon, my new Sport steering wheel.

I would like to have your opinion in this, I just found out a great deal for 4x Oz F1, in really great shape. Do you think that this grey (almost like anthracite) will suit well with the green of my car?

Meanwhile, time for some little details.

The steering wheel was cleaned and restored, and now has new rubber grips.

Also, time to restore the front headlights.
Before...

...and after.

Yes, love DCIs and particularly this colour

Well, after 3 months under a deep engine repair, this green Clio is back!
The engine was almost rebuild, and it is better than ever.

Looking good!

What did you fix on the engine?

 

[xakazulo]

The head gasket, and so on...it killed my wallet, but now I'm more safe.

Also, I've painted the calipers!

The latest acquisition for the little green, the 172 gear knob. I was looking for a OEM but everything I founded was just the China replicas, but a miracle happened and I Just bought this one.

Isn't that Nordic Green?

 

[xakazulo]

Finally, it has the looks of a Clio.
The OZ F1 arrived.

 

[Toby]

Looks really good.

Lowering springs next?

[xakazulo]

Looks really good.

Lowering springs next?

Next month I hope, this Clio looks like a Land Rover with this height.
