so far only problem iv found is it poped out of 5th gear on way home so ill get that looked at when i get it serviced
also a tiny bit of bubble at back arch other than that its very clean i will go over it proper tomorrow when im not grinning asmuch

Welcome fella, sure it'll be lucky 13 for you. :D
nice one, bit of tlc and it will be 100%
nice one bro
brought my firt one other day
how much did that cost you?
from ebay wasnt it? think i saw it.....
matt
looks great pal, nice low number as well, bet your over the moon!
You made a wise choice.
Jumping out of gear is the gearbox mounting or dog bone mount as its commonly known. Only £32 from Renault.

yes mate off ebay i got the car for £1900 but i pxed my punto so didnt pay all that in cash :lol: :D
bloody hell they shift i was suprised at how much grunt its got through all the gears :)
thank god i didnt make a mess on my lovly seats :lol:
very low number! unlucky for some???? :wink: what part of the country are ya from mate?
not a bad price that
they must be going down in ££££ cause i just picked up mine for £1250
and body work is mint.
just needs steering rack welding and taxing.
:)
matt
Don't think there going down in price, you pay your money you take your chance. If mine was for sale it would be up for 5k with little or no margin for negotiation.
Sometimes paople just want rid, don't know wat there worth, or selling it for bit more than offered on PX. Lots of scenarios really.

have to agree there mate! urs is mintier than mint! not one spot of rust! and ur engine bay is spotless!!!(hopefully mine will look like that with your help mate)!!!
No worries mate we'll get it sorted. Will be minty fresh.
very nice, although them wheels the std ones, look more like primas in that top pic. look flared them spokes
saw this for sale somewhere i think
was is a ebay bargain?
nice car tho matey
yeah i dont think the woman had much of a clue.
reckoned she'd been quoted £500 for a full new steering rack and she said it was unsafe to drive.
i've had 3 valvers with the infamous play in steering wheel. i felt a bit cruel not telling her it would only cost £5 to weld by garage down road from me.
oh well mine now lol
will have pics up tomorrow
got a couple i can put up in a second on another thread
Popping out of 5th can also be caused by wrongly adjusted linkage, had the same problem on mine, its probably worth getting a new dogbone mount anyway though as it makes a lot of difference.
Is this car from Renault Manchester originally? I know a car from Renault Manchester with a very similar plate

the cam belt was changed at 87000 its now on 102000 so im looking to get that done

nope, im a customer
the 2 lads that run it though are really into there Mk1 Clio's and other early Renaults, so you get an enthusiast working on your car who knows all the little faults they have, rather than some work experience lad from college or some other random half wit mechanic who doesnt give a shit about your car just what time he finishes
yep that sound like a plan cheers for the info ill try n catch you tomorrow :)
Ever fooker knows everyone else lol
Rochdale area seems to be a hotbed for the old mk1s at the mo

2live, How much for a cambelt change? And do you need to drop the engine, or can you do it in situ?
cambelts can be done in situ.
A camblet change is around £180 with labour from a garage.
Also get the idler wheels changed. A cambelt kit can be bought from renault @ £95.
