EX RENAULT CLIO CUP MK1 RACE CAR –Ideal for sprints/hillclimbs, tarmac rally--get yourself ready for the 2009 season!!
Serial number 1285
I bought this car about 6 months ago from a customer, with the intention of using it as a demo car. Plans have now changed, and it is up for sale. Anyone familiar (and most not so familiar!) with Renault Clio’s will be fully aware of how capable they are in the handling and performance departments. As far as FWD hatches go, they are more or less un-rivaled. This makes them the ideal choice for sprint/hillclimb, tarmac/stage rally, and many other forms of motorsport. They are a big favorite for weekend track days also.
This is a genuine CLIO CUP race car that was used for part of a season following the TOCA tour around in the early circa ‘94. It was supported and maintained by Team Think Racing during its professional race days. It then spent up to approx 3 years in dry storage, unused. The previous owner owned the car for two years and had spent many thousands of pounds improving the specification of the car and getting it to the superb condition it is in at present. He had it as a toy, and it spent more time in his heated garage having new parts fitted to it than it did seeing tarmac! It therefore needs nothing, and is absolutely ready to race.
Originally the car had a control engine, which was a Renault sport built/blueprinted F7P (1.8 16v). However most owners have replaced that for the 2.0 Williams engine which produces a lot more low-down torque.
Due to the nature of my business (engine building/performance tuning) I can offer the car with various engine and transmission specifications, to allow for various budgets and usage. See below for more details.
Overall this is a quick and reliable car ready to race/track or. Recently completed modifications make this car on the button and ready to enjoy. As mentioned most modifications are recently fitted and are still AS NEW.
V5 is present, car is currently SORN'd. If you so wished, it could be MOT'd with the addition of a working horn!
BODY:

Freshly painted rear boot lid minus the wiper mechanism to save weight

Fitted with standard Clio Williams 2.0 16v.
£3750
In addition to the std 2.0 engine, the car can be fitted with various output 2.0 16v, various spec/configurations available. Anything from just uprated cams& headwork, making approx 180-185bhp to a fully rebuilt race engine, with high compression forged pistons, H section rods, big-valve modified cylinder head (flowing 37% more than std), individual throttle bodies, billet camshafts, titanium spring retainers, after-market ecu, fully calibrated, producing circa 250bhp.

Brand New ASHLEY competition exhaust fitted (98db).
I also have an Avanti close ratio gearbox available. This is a syncro-mesh unit, currently fitted with a standard LSD. The ratios (available on request) are significantly closer than std, and perfectly suited for sprinting. The cluster alone was £2500 new, not including casings and fitting etc.
This is available at an additional £1000, fitted (advertised elsewhere for £1250 unfitted)
