Hi all, thanks for the welcome. I am Micky's stepson. As Mick has already said, after I had very lucky escape on the M25, it was time to get a track car. Between the 3 of us we decided we wanted something RWD and turbo but after a good couple of months we couldnt find anything within our budget. After randomly searching eBay i found the clio with 8 hours left to run and after ummm'ing and ahh'ing we put a bid in and next thing we know, we had ourselves a car.
Im very pleased with the Clio so far and after searching about on the forum it would seem we have found ourselves a well sorted car. Im not very mechanically minded so im hoping to learn a thing or two along the way and hopefully we will get to do a fair few track days this year and have some fun!!
Since we got the car from Ventura we have given it a damn good clean and some TLC. Our mate Coxxy spent some time tidying up the wiring inside. Nothing removed just tucked neatly out the way. After driving it home in the rain, the rear wiper decided to jump ship and it snapped off. So we thought we may as well remove the whole lot. The wiper motor was a pain to remove due to the type of bolt its held in with, so after being careful trying to get it out in 1, Mick decided brute force was in order and broke it off. Job done.
Our next job is to find and replace a dodgy/broken abs sensor.
