Seen this on eBay could be a decent car shame the owners a moron no belts done etc an won't accommodate that into the pricing

ITB setup would probably cost £1.5k fitted and setup (£2k+ with aftermarket ECU easy). Plus it's low mileage. Without belts if it's in decent condition I'd say £2.5k was a fair price to be honest.

At the end of the day the belt and dephaser is £500 fitted. I'd always factor in getting it done by someone you trust regardless anyway when buying a clio if you're intending on keeping it for a couple years or more.

I'd personally rather the mods be built on an engine that had been well serviced surely spending £1500 on an engine that's not had the belts done is just stupid ?

It doesn't mention the belts, so it may of had them done for all we know. I'd be tempted by it if I wanted another car

I've spoke to him he said he'd rather a low mileage car with no service history than a higher mileage car with service history

No worries mate, I had a choice of buying a high millage clio with good service history, or a low milage car with none, I picked the low millage car. The car had been garaged for some time, clearly been looked after so I bought it to do the conversion. It will come with 12 months mot regardless of the work or cost involved. I bought it as a track car but unfortunately it's been sold to fund a workshop. Not much more I could tell you mate, only bought it to fit bodies and race
