After a good chat between me and the mrs, the Clio is better off being sold. Which is quite sad on my part as I've just got it to how I want it. The gripper differential has completely transformed the car, the handling is superb, just pulls you around the corners and has improved the steering/traction no end. Such a great but expensive upgrade. A lot of money, effort & time has been put into this Clio since I took ownership of it last year. Here's a list of parts replaced. It's had a full suspension refresh with the following parts. New Clio cup shocks New Cup wishbones Cooksport springs New Pms top mounts New Pms a/c delete kit New steering rack New nylon steering rack bushes New inner/outer arms Driveshafts. Engine. 83,000 fsh. with the following work being carried out by the midlands Renault specialist Mick@diamond motors. New cambelt kit New aux belt kit New dephaser 197cams Matched inlets Bigger throttle body. New clutch Agency refurbished gearbox with new gripper differential with bills of £2000 Motul 75w80 ( the only ph1 Clio with a gripper diff in afaik ) Mapped by Paul@rstuning and it made 177bhp. New stealth exhaust system Prima exhaust mount Poly bushed ( inner & outer ) New Black power flex gearbox mount New vibratechnics engine & gearbox mount. Polo radiator with new thermostat and type d coolant. Scott rallye induction kit ( I believe I'm the only one with this other than Scott himself. Wheels New speedline Turinis with new t1r's Spare set of Freshly powder coated ozf1's in anthracite. Parts that have just been resprayed and fitted. Ph2 side strips (titanium) Ph2 bullets (titanium) sprayshack Ph2 door handles Trophy spoiler sprayed by si@sprayshack with an anthracite lip. Sprayshack anthracite wing mirrors New trophy struts Ph2 lights New ph1 steering wheel. Spares include all the old parts + Front bumper Ktec coilovers Upper and lower inlets Spare matches lower Inlet Old ph1 Lights & spoiler with break light. All in all this is a great well looked after immaculate example of a ph1 Clio, with a combination of modifications which has made a normal ph1 Clio into an awesome car wether it's for road or track. The paint work is in great condition other than a few stone chips and a tiny 50p dent on the drivers side door. The car was fully detailed 3months ago and still beads up nicely and cleans with just a wash, ideally it could do with another to remove any road grime and salt from the paint work. With all this is mind I'm looking for £3250 for everything Ono. No time-wasters or test pilots and anyone wanting to drive the car Must have insurance and £3250 to back it up. Any questions feel free to pm me. [A
Another great build for someone else mate, you've just got it all done then selling it on, what a shame
Cheers steve. I know, I will never have time to keep both, this Clio needs someone to put it to good use.
Gray had a drive the other night and he was completely shocked and impressed by the diff. Cheers Steve. Yeah over the moon with it.
It's a late model 225 in absolutely mint condition, literally immaculate. 2 owners, both brother with 63,000k on the clock. For the r26 it's £1-2k more and that's for a pretty shit one that's not been looked after, so I'm happy it have this with the spec and recaros This in time to come will he fitted with a gripper diff, as I can get hold of them at a good price.
