    My little Tungsten...work in progress

    Well, I've had my head stuck in so many places on the Clio, I've not even had time to clean it yet except a brief sponge down of the alloys, which are in remarkably good condition.

    So today, while peering out of my office window, I spotted the 'urban-warfare' coloured 16v and had to take a snap of it!



    Had it about 3 weeks now and fixed many little things wrong with it. The engine seems strong, and in fact too much for the clutch which is showing signs of better days (expensive bill ahead!)...

    Other than that all it really needs is some TLC on the suspension, but all in all it handles well still.

    Everything works, except the relay has blown for the rear heated window, easily sorted. Fixed a misfire, and redone the central locking system so it works properly. I am currently priming some of the trim for a respray too, make it look nice and shiny :D

    Thanks everyone! It looks pretty good there, even though the bodywork needs some TLC...which I am working on as I type

    Justin, thanks man, I was thinking of asking GSF for a clutch kit but am not looking forward to a bill of having it fitted. I don't have the space/off road facilities to do it myself and although I reckon I could do it I've not tackled a job that big before!
