So a sad day today as I watched the cars new owner drive off in it. It's been an amazing journey with it over the last 6 and a half years. Learnt a lot and spent even more! Truly has been fun and I will probably find myself in another Renaultsport product in the future. The new owner seems keen...

Well if he wants any extra details tell him to message me! There is a small amount of movement in the price Sent from my Pixel 4a using Tapatalk

Just a small update to say that the car is now up for sale (again). This time it needs to go though. It's been a fun journey but it's not getting the use it deserves. Some last pictures of it that I'm using for its sale. Sent from my Pixel 4a using Tapatalk

I thought this thread was overdue an update. Things didn't quite go to plan this summer. My first track time of the year was cancelled as Evo decided not to run their evenings this year. Having had the money back on that I thought I would book a full day at Bedford to get me used to the new...

The best thing to do would be try and get yours on some scales or a weighbridge. When I started getting more serious with this car I was looking at towing it with the daily car I bought to replace it. That had an 1800kg towing capacity which I always thought would be right on the limit. Now I...

Oh yeah, I've seen lots of people going mad with ways to lose weight from them but I don't want to take it too far away form being a usable road car. Poly windows get tempting but it lives outside so I would worry about uv damage,vandalism etc. It's certainly not the first thing on my agenda...

I'm more than happy with it for now especially given the full cage. I think it'll stay in this iteration for a while now before I no doubt start trying to reduce the overall weight in the future. Sent from my LYA-L09 using Tapatalk

Quite a lot! I wasn't surprised by this though as other than removing interior bits to fit the roll cage I've not really done and weight saving measures on it. And roll cages aren't exactly light. It has made me start to thing about what I can do that will help shed some kilos off though...

More progress today. Had a trip down to Northampton Motorsport and was booked in for wheel alignment although I also got talked into having it corner weighted whilst it was with them. I was planning on getting it done at some point so made sense whilst it was up on the scales and everything is...

Covid-19 lockdown update! As seems to be the trend with the lockdown, being on furlough has meant I've had time to do things to the car. After I accidentally sold my daily car to my neighbour I was ready to buy an MX5 to run around in. But we entered lockdown and I soon realised everything...

Being stuck at home does have some perks I suppose. With the car as my daily again (easy at the moment to live with!) I thought it deserved a proper wash. This has to be the first time in 2 years that I've done more than a wash and some quick detailer. It was given a good wash, some fallout...

Unfortunately with the cage i have in the car the roof lining is a no go. I need to see how it is first when i get the chance to take it for a run.

A small update from the weekend. The search for some new more usable seats came to a very quick end with a winning bid on some rather lovely Sabelt. I have always been a fan of their products but these to me really are something else. Sabelt Titan Carbonio seats out of a Ferrari 458 Challenge...

Exactly my current thoughts. I don't mind the full cage on the road but the winged seats are a real pain at junctions. I also have previous experience of leaving track tyres on the car for road use which made it boring, putting it back onto some worn in Goodyear road tyres really made the car...

i knew these cars were slow sellers but having only had one message about it in 6 weeks has been a real eye opener. After a very enjoyable drive in it a couple of weekends ago i have decided that if it doesn't get any more interest in the 16 days left on the Pistonheads ad then i will be keeping...

Can only go from my experience but on my early 200 only the drivers side lights up. Maybe they updated it with later 200's but i always assumed that they kept it all the same. Legally speaking only the one on the offside of the vehicle needs to light up. Any one else with a later 200 able to...

Only the drivers side is supposed to light up. The other side will be there for lhd cars and it's cheaper to just use the same light units. I imagine someone out there has wired it up so they both come on but it's not supposed to from the factory.

I know they look awful like cheap tat but there was a Facebook post about them a little while ago and someone got a conformation FROM sabelt that they are indeed the genuine pedal covers Sent from my LYA-L09 using Tapatalk

Pretty cheap but that's how they come! I'll take a picture later and post it on here. Sent from my LYA-L09 using Tapatalk

Well the car is up on Pistonheads. No idea if anyone will be interested in buying it but feel it's time to go. I have a feeling it'll be hanging around for quite a while but a new car won't happen until it goes so here's hoping for a quick sale...
