Well as Im sure some of you are aware Djw Dave and myself built a 1.7 Turbo Mk1 Clio recently which he used with much fun for far too brief a time until some scummy b*****ds broke into it, stole plenty and damaged it.
How it started about 3 years ago iirc

At FCS 06 on its coilovers, black wheels, monacos etc etc

Back on the road following the turbo conversion with its 3rd interior (new reclining buckets, black carpet etc etc)

All ran well for a month or so on the run up to FCS, then the alternator died, no worries we thought. Took it to Daves work and left it in the yard. Obviously someone liked the handywork and decided to break into it :(

Pretty much just some wiring to come out once we've figured out what we can lose!
Due to the break in damage we've had to replace the door, figured may as well start lightening it!

Must make some sort of difference! Plenty to be grinded off from elsewhere inside!
Wheels and coilovers are also off so they can be sold
