Popular Post SEEN88 Posted February 5, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted February 5, 2023 Finally a car worth showing people! Just picked this up yesterday as a weekend car. Can't believe how tidy it is, especially inside! Hoping to tidy up the paint, stiffen things up a little with Cup suspension, maybe build a cold air box. Oh and find some nice light 15x7s for it, maybe Enkei RP01s 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VitesseEFI Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 Nice. Getting hard to find in decent unmolested condition here in the UK. Factory suspension is hard to improve on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SEEN88 Posted February 15 Author Share Posted February 15 Took a ding in the back at a stop sign and got an $8000 repair quote, sounds like it's going to be written off. Can't really afford to get something else to drive plus buy the Clio back and repair it, so I'll let y'all know if it's going up for auction. @Mattwho?

SEEN88 Posted February 16 Author Share Posted February 16 https://photos.app.goo.gl/hnkJcy8QRAEJbcnTA $4000 in parts from France, $4000 in labour. Wonder how much they'll offer it back to me for, I'll find out early next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eyeing up a first gen V70 or XC70 2.5T/T5 for ultimate dad-wag vibes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEEN88 Posted February 20 Author Share Posted February 20 The insurance company wanted $2500 for it deregistered.

SEEN88 Posted February 22 Author Share Posted February 22 If anyone does end up with it, I have some spares that I didn't send off with the car, too. Oil filters, original steering wheel and stereo, wiper blades etc etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VitesseEFI Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Looks like an easy fix. Does de-registered mean it can never go back on the road, or just lots of red tape? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

87creepin Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 I think with a porta power, factory chassis measurements and perhaps a few spare panel cuts it could be done. it’s a shame that this happened not long after you had purchased it. =( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEEN88 Posted March 12 Author Share Posted March 12 Well the car is gone, went for $2070. Someone in Auckland added it to their horde, he now has 7 Clio 172/182s, including one he has owned since new. Pretty pleased it's gone to a good home! Mods, feel free to close the thread. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
