I finally put a deposit down on a Clio today:w00t:
Unfortunately in all my excitement i totally forgot to take some pictures while i was there:thumbdown:
Anyway, i am going to collect it tomorrow evening so will get some pics up later in the week.
It's a Nimbus grey R27 F1 21/500.
Full Fat with Cup chassis.
20,000 miles.
Recaro interior.
Cup spoiler.
I am over the moon as i think i got a pretty good deal.
There are a couple of things that need doing, so my plan is -
Cambelt change and service.
Touch up little scuffs to bumpers - Potentially a Chipsaway job.
Replace drivers side wing mirror - Black casing is cracked.
Replace seals on side windows as they have the common perished look - Is this an easy enough job?
Drivers side Recaro is showing signs of wear so i will probably look into replacing the seat cover.
Full paint correction detail.
Once all this has been done i am going to look at a few slight modifications -
200 rear diffuser - From Fernandez.
Carbon Exhaust trims - As above.
Exhaust system - Unsure as yet which one.
Remap.
Suspension - Not sure whether to go the route of Coilovers or whether to go with 30/40 lowering springs.
Possible spacers - Dependant on whether or not i track the car much.
Braided brake lines and Race fluid.
Fingers crossed my money will stretch to all of this:001_rolleyes:
I hope to have this updated regularly and any advice or comments good or bad greatfully accepted.
Cheers all.
