Hi guys,

We just bought a clio auto so my wife can get around for a new job. (She's american so have to stick to small engined cards else the insurance is nuts on international drivers license).

The garage said they also have a 2nd clio that we could have for free, but apparently since its headgasket has gone it hasn't been moved. How easy/expensive is it for me to do one on the clio (I assume its also a 1.4 as I didn't look at the 2nd car).

Sure I can take the head off etc, just prefer not to touch any cams.

More of a get it home and strip it maybe.. but 39 miles to travel.

Wonder if it would go 39 miles on head gasket naffed up... hmm.
