After a poor start yesterday due to my laziness i finished getting the turbo at a more appropriate ride height! :wink:

also spent a good few hours loosing all the rust and blemished from rear arches/bootfloor etc and undersealing it all

removed the aux fuel tank aswell and now all i have to do is head the scrap yard tomorrow to get the right bypass tube from a lower model clio mk1! 8)

first, where the turbo should be :cry:
