Wood look better standerd.

Even the Williams wasn't a limited edition. Renault went on to make second and third editions.

I was unsure if that was sunflower yellow, looks a bit bright I thought (they usually fade). I'm just up the road and may go and look at the code on the driver's door to find out. But really a 17 year old RS Clio isn't worth it and the dealer seems like a plonker.

Only way to find out is to go and see it in the metal. It's surprising how different people are when describing good or average cars. I expect a lot of Trophy's and 172 Cups advertised at £5-6k and £3k respectively are pretty shot (assuming you know what to look for). You can also find bargains...

I'll get it all done, I just need to find somewhere good who will do it. One place I took it to said they'd fit box sections to it like a 5 Turbo, needless to say I declined!

Restore the bodywork so it's rear arches and the front bumper (both sections), then straighten the bent sills where they collapse on jacking and re-shultz the underside.

The people who were going to restore my Ph1 172 (ALSA in South Wales who look after one of the BTCC cars) can't do it now due to illness so I need someone else instead to do it. Has anyone else restored a Ph1's body back to a high standard and therefore has a good place to recommend. It doesn't...

I don't know why people waste time trying to clean these ropey things, they are worn out after 17 years of use and should be binned. Just order a new one from Renault Wolverhampton (they're on Ebay) or buy another car. Hope that helped :tonguewink:

Take it on an airfield, set up some cones and then find just how easy it is to spin. Learn the limits of the car off road. We ran lots of airfield days for Clios including the Vees for several years at Smeatharpe in Devon, all for £20 a day. If only we had access to that site now.

No, I hope not. The board looks fine, no cracks or anything I can see. I put it back together and this time it works. I will cary both keys with me for a time and see what happens.

Yes, flashes fast. Will check the board under a magnifier tomorrow at work where I can have a good look at it. Thanks

No joy, the light still flashes.

The one on the dash flashes quickly. The one near the gear lever stays off.

Any advice appreciated, I followed the guide after soldering on a new micro switch http://www.cliosport.net/threads/how-to-sync-your-central-locking-with-your-key-new-key.585981/#post-7817632 . The key opens the car fine but I can't start the engine and the immobilizer light on the dash doesn't...
