Mk1 Ph1 Tunsgton Clio Hybrid £2500

[Amirclio]

Much against my will i am going to have to sell my beloved hybrid due to buying a house and getting a new job and company car.

Most of you know the car by now but for those of you who dont the spec is as follows.....

Chassis and suspension
1991 'J' Clio 16v Shell
Shell on 110k
Tungston grey (60 recent respray - car is more or less unmarked
Ph1 cloth interior with blue and yellow fleck as per door pillar badges
15" speedline turinis refurbed in what can only be described as 'one shade from black' wrapped in literally 1500k old pirelli p6000 rubber (people slate these tyres but i have no problem with them)
Lowered 45mm all round (apex front lowering springs)
Williams wide track conversion (entire subframe used)
Standard discs with green stuff pads

NO RUST!!!!!!

MOT Feb 08
Tax Jan 08

Engine
Hill power rebuilt 2ltr 16v williams engine (F7R)
Ported and polished cylinder head
piper fast road cams
alloy vernier pullies
16v manifold (better torque figures over willy unit)
ECU Re-map
External Mocal oil cooler mounted behind lower bumper grill
Mongoose stainless stael exhaust system inlcuding decat (car does not need cat forr MOT due to age)
It had a service when it was fitted roughly 1500 miles ago (new plugs, leads, dizzy, oil, Coolant temp sensor, head gasket, both belts)
Low temp thermostat
Nick suplied the engine and according to him it was on 50k ish when fitted but as said it was rebuilt using all new rings seals, followers etc. But then i could not trace the mileage thereafter. The engine was built in 2002, so i cant imagine it to be much considering it was rebuilt.
Standard air bow with ITG filter. Fog light replaced with airscoop and direct feed into airbox
Power figure in the region of 180-190bhp

The car is great fun to drive i have loved owning it. I am seriously going to regret gettin rid (growing up is so s**te!).
It has more potential to be faster as at the moent the verniers and timing are set up for peak mid range torque this also gives a near perfect idle. They could be set up to give more power however the idle would be lumpy.
Oil pressure is superb - 6 bar when cold normal driving and 3-4 once warm.

Its a near mint car and i can say that with absolute confidence and im sure people who have seen it will vouch for me.

Car was never ragged from cold EVER! I very rarely drove it hard anyway as it was not used in the week as i walk to work!
Does'nt over heat sits perfect in the middle and fan cuts in.

Bad points
There are a couple sadly.....
Needs exhaust manifold heatshield.
Needs a new lamda sensor.
Passenger side window only goes down about 6inches, had it to pieces but couldnt figure out what was causing it to jam!

Think thats it. Buyer will not be disapointed its a great car eats 182's CTR's etc.

Thanks for looking
