[*]Wellllll I might as well tell you all now really ![]() The clio had 6months MOT, 6 months tax, needed airbag light sorting, rear discs, was keyed, had a dent in the rear arch, needed a service, didn't always like to start first time quickly, and the ABS/TC light popped on occasionally, all this added up to a worried me for a big bill eventually and as I said before I have been accepted for university so I need something cheaper to run, something I know how to fix and something fun! The minute me and Danny got in it straight away we said how good a deal I had got really, and I couldn't stop smiling, I feel right at home again! The spec! 85000 miles 12 months MOT 6 Months tax New catalytic converter for MOT Ph2! So, A/C, Boot pop, electric mirrors, heated front screen, and the black dash, door cards etc! Had had recent Cambelt, water pump, clutch, slave, aux belt. Tons of reciepts for all other bits (I have never had history really, let along a massive folder full!) Race tube with sportex backbox (burbles nicely!) K&N Induction kit Colour coded bumpstrips LED interior light Blue LED clocks Puma Gearknob (Danny gave me my old one back I gave him!) straight subframe! ![]() Also has a gash splitter that doesn't really look like it fits right, so thats coming off. Also I have a dyno print out for "118bhp" ![]() I've probably missed bits out but yeah, I'll put some pics up probably monday, It needs a proper clean (got the Poorboys blackhole ready to use!), Danny has some and a video from when we picked it up, the checkers it came with have been taken off, peeled off some lacquer though so need a new spoiler and one wing mirror (will probably get this done with arches, as electric ones are expensive) Only other thing is under one sides bumpstrips has some lacquer peel so I can't destrip it ![]() ![]() Only plans atm are: RST Recaros RS Splitter Lowering springs New Ford Badges all around as they were tacky white/blue not blue/white Spray the rear light into a "euro" Remove yellow fog vinyl Smoke fogs, headlights. Freestyle Grill Centre the exhaust as it sits a bit to the right Plan is to keep it simple! Clean! Yet effective ![]() Heres some advert pictures: ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Video through a tunnel It doesn't look like this anymore but you get the idea ![]() ![]() |

Shed. I'm joking ![]() It is indeed a very clean and straight car, much better than the last one (lol). This one seems to have been looked after very well and comes well equipped too. And it shall continue to be looked after well with no bodging! ![]() |

Nice car, sounds like a minter. Didnt realise the clio was in a state, I thought it was in good shape, knowing that I can see your reason for getting shot of it. |

It worked alright, there was nothing wrong mechanically and with the belts etc done thats all the guy wanted, and I told him all about the maintenance he needed to do and he was fine with it, just consumables mainly, but all those add up to a big bill on a car like that! |

Gayyyyy. Gay car. Ban! Nah, I understand your situation and your feelings about this model of car as I've been the same in the past, so hopefully it's a peach compared to the last one. |

Looks good mate!! Really like the ZS and think I'll get one if my Mk3 ever goes. Agree with you on the splitter and yellow fogs. Looks a minter though, good find :-) Paul |
