took this from another forum I'm on.
Well after months of driving round in my ****ty 106 and waiting for my glorious student loan to come in i got a new project. Had quite a few cars in mind such as an eg6, 172 clio and the such. Came across this wee valver, very hard to get a good one over here that isn't a pile of rust or chavy looking. Managed to come across this one locally, it hasn't been on the road since 2009 so has no tax and mot. Not to worried about that.
Spec:
[list:ebb8017ee9]
Naples red 1.8 16v clio
At the minute it's pretty standard just with the exception of a magnex exhaust system and an air filter
It's had a full engine overhaul and hasn't been on the road since then as the previous owner didn't have the time for it
Its also has ****ty tsw wheels which i don't like so their leaving.
Plans are:
Getting a set of renault turbines for it this week
[list:ebb8017ee9]
Get it up to the rr day at AI
clean up all the body work etc as it has sat for a while and faded a touch.
Tidy up the engine bay
lowered a touch more at the back
fix the leaky sunroof
maybe supercharge it next year (if i keep it till then and have the cash :P)[/list:u:ebb8017ee9][/list:u:ebb8017ee9]
Here it is, Apologies for the ****ty pics
