    0012 Update.

    Well she is back on the road!

    To clear up the issue with the hubs, you guys were of course right, the hubs I had obtained were neither Williams or 16 Valve hubs, so I had the originals drilled, re tapped, I the refurbished them, replaced wheel bearings and put them on.

    Below is a list of what I have managed to get done over the past couple of months:

    New expansion tank.
    Coolant flush.
    Replaced Driver side central locking solonoid.
    Fixed electric windows.
    Fixed boot latch.
    Welded steering column.
    Refurbed + refitted hubs.
    New Hub nuts.
    New track rod ends.
    New lower ball joints.
    New lower balljoint pinch bolts.
    Refurbished front calipers and fitted.
    Front goodridge braided brake hoses.
    New grooved front discs.
    New front pads.
    Made and fitted a set of new front brake lines.
    Bleed of front brakes.
    Some rust related TLC in sill seams and inner boot lid.
    Oil and Filter change.
    OMP Corsica deep dish steering wheel, (because i'm 6'4" and my knees get in the way of the original one! original of course kept for originality sake).

    There is probably more but right now I cant remember!

    Gave her a good old polish today, and she is running and handling really really sweet! She pulls strongly, and handles impeccably. Really suits my short shifting road driving style!

    :D

    I will snap some pics when me and the Clio are on holiday for the next week in Cornwall!!

    She is pretty clean, does still need some rust TLC but overall, for her age she is doing well, especial now I have done the above list!

    You have 0013? We should meet up and get pics sometime dude!
