I used a plastic wedge underneath, took about 5 secs to remove

Yeah I bought the citroen ones, they easy to fit cause they fit the original holes. As said the videos at the start of thread, sprays in a mist rather than 4 jets of water, covering the whole screen

Just fitted mine, loads better than original ones. Great find.

Most flood damaged cars tend to be Cat B these days due to the fact that they can cost a fortune to put right. Plus as a garage we have to put a 5yr warrenty on our work so we can't be sure that the car is safe to drive airbags failures and such. Basically we would have to strip everything out...

Like MicKPM said depends what garage, our place a minor service is just oil and oil filter, don't even do the air filter. I tend to change oil, air oil and fuel filters. every other service the cabin filter and just check the rest of the car over for faults

I used a plastic wedge underneath on the joint and it just pops off :)

sorry i ment to put there wouldn't need filler, not would :)

Like most people have already said your looking at painting the whole side to be honest plus blending bumpers and possibly bonnet. The door would have to been done anyways consider your painting the wing and 1/4 panel else it would stand out Your definitly looking about £300 - £350 ish, I...

Its a good job there quite easy to work on ive had at least 10 K-series metros and a few 200's with them too. I love them :)

I admit its not a lotus and that they only share engines :) The K series is awkward engine to deal with namely head gaskets, but i happy to have a go at using a turbo, mainly because im not bothered about blowing the engine up not as if its my daily runner. Ive been looking into the idea of...

Im considering keeping it FWD for the minute just because it will be easier to finish, then who knows might put an engine in the rear and make it 4wd lol :) The other pick-up i saw which id love it this one

At the minute the its fitted with the 1.8 k series, which im planning on turboing :) im still considering weather to fit the engine in the rear and make it rear wheel drive Its also fitted with 304mm MGTF Trophy, AP racing 4 pots, im gutted that i can't work on it at the minute, so ill be...

Thought I would post up my other project which is diverting my money from the clio :) been working on this for a while in my spare time although ive lost my workshop space for a few months. Hoping to crack on with it when its out of the container its currently sat in.

Love it looks great, I love the mk1 always wanted one, hoping to get my workshop sorted so i can get on with my projects. Always satisfying when you do it yourself :)

27 - currently running a 1.2 cause its cheap (saving for something more powerful)

Love it, looks great in white :)

Just finished reading the thread, amazing car mate. Thought it looked great with the orange wheels mind :)

Great game been playing for a while up to level 34 at the min

Yeah its a Metro with a Lotus elise engine and a MGZR Front bumper :) The 206 is the one car I really regret selling, loved it :)

Ive been building this metro for a few years in my spare time (not that a get alot of that) Its current fitted although not running yet with a 1.8 K-series from a Lotus Elise, with uprated rads and plans for a turbo. The brakes have been robbed from a MGF Trophy (304mm discs), and wheels are 16"...

Looks great, I like the stickers personnally :approve:

Will be light, cheaper modding to start with. with most of my money going on my other project at the minute. Luckily i work in a bodyshop so should be getting the colour coded done soon when i get a spare five minutes :) Managed to find a some 172 interior trims cheap on ebay and got a couple of...

Thank god for that thought I had for a minute .

Crap ive put this in the wrong section sorry. Trying to find alloys for it and get it slammed else the trims will go lol. Yes it is an expression :)

Heres a few pics of my clio, pretty much standard at the minute although started doing a few mods :)

Not sure if Im supposed to post pics here or not lol but these are pics of some of the cars ive had :) Lexus Is200 Lexus Soarer Peugeot 206 Nissan Navara and finally my other project the Lotus Metro Pickup :)

Thanks for the replys guys :). Yeah the soarer was really thirsty great fun to drive mind, original i bought it cause it had nice wheels which i was going to put on my IS200 but they didn't really fit with out major arch work so i ran that for a bit :) May consider a 172 or 182 in the future...
