Right after a new purchase i no longer need my valver.
I have done alot of work since i bought it, and would say that it is in good condition now.
Since i bought it i have had the arches and backs of the sills done at a bodyshop. And when i got it back, i then undersealed the inside of the rear arches to make sure that the rust wouldnt come back.
I have sourced parts to make it original again such as the rear lights and boot strip and the turbine wheels.
I have sorted out the usual idle problems which the clios get. Which meant the ISCV has been cleaned, the CTS and Thermostat have been replaced.
I have also given it a coolant flush and new coolant.
The most recent job which i have done to the car is replacing the Subframe.
The one which was on there had alot of surface rust, so it was easier to buy a new one and use that.
So i have put another subframe on which has been painted black. and put on new wishbones, balljoints, and track rod ends. As well as a painted ARB with new rubbers.
I also put 2 new wheel bearings into the hubs at the same time.
I also sorted out some rust which was above the cat area, as it never had any underseal there from factory.
I have also put on some 172 Springs which had done 10k from new and good condition rubbers and new bearings.
On the braking side i put on some good condition front calipers wihch have been greased up and have Pagid Fast Road Pads, with Goodridge hoses at the front (I have the rears just havn't put them on) They stop well, Naples can agree :wink:
On the back it has new discs bearings and pads.
It also has had 4 new Toyo Proxes T1-R's in 185/55/15 fitment to keep the original feel.
The Interior is in good condition. with only a few small holes which are not very noticable.
It has a few mods which dont make it 100% standard.
It has a cat back blueflame system. and decat. as well as a custom airfeed going from the fog lights.
It also has a powdercoated rocker cover.
Alpine Type-S Coaxials 5.25" in the doors.
The car has covered 85k and has Fsh
I would like £1400 as the tyres on the wheels are new.
