Im currently wanting to go back to a Clio after owning my R26 for a few months, i just miss the raw, loud, go-kart drive i think..


Ive found this which i think could be a good un -

Needs -

Original lights
Original Bonnet
Mud flaps taking off
Decent buckets
15's


How much do we think its worth??

Its hideous inside and out but has ITBs so not sure on its value.

I paid £1300 for my standard one on similar miles so not much more than that imo

Urgh.

Don't bother !!!

PH 1 CAT D- worth FK ALL-

Only worth money in parts- if you have the time then break it & try & make a few bob, but totally pointless buying that to return to standard

For what it'd cost to buy and then make decent, you'll be able to buy a decent one straightaway.

But you'd probably make back most of your money on the throttle bodies though if you could break it, and the rest would be profit.

I know its looks s**t as it is now, but it could be decent.


Ive been through PH & EBay and cant really find anything that has any potential - i dont wanna start from scratch like i did with my last 182, cost far too much.

What about this one?

Its only worth buying for a track car. Bin the seats and the gash parts of the interior, get some buckets and have a laugh.

If you buy it make sure its a price you're happy with, knowing you'll never get the money back.

I had a Charged RB before the R26, so ive kinda had enough of RB now (Not knocking it, lovely colour!)

Just seen that Arctic in the Classifieds, wouldnt have minded that...

But what im really after is a Ph1 already on coilovers, buckets etc which i can chuck a turbo/supercharger at and forge

 

[stuart1989]

Think this is just what im looking for!

It would cost you best part of 3 times that to build it yourself so seems pretty reasonable to me?

I'd be looking for something a little less done than that, as you'll only end up changing parts for bits you like better, almost in the middle of that and standard.

If I see anything come up I'll give you a shout.
