What I meant to say - every tried to save a few £££'s......

ahhh just kidding

 

Nice new seats, looks like you'll be having a field day fitting those parts or are you taking it somewhere?

[Daniel]

So Chris, when are you getting the car and when will it be ready. Trackdays at Donny are nice and cheap now!

[christurbo]

Well ..... Because Barclays were absolute F***Rs and didnt tell me I could get a cheque to clear in 2 x days by paying them £15 - I have to wait the full 5 days to clear. So the funds will be available on Monday.

 

I however have a Ph2 172 that I have in line and will pick it up next weekend. I am putting a deposit on it tomorrow though

 

Its going to take me a while to get everything fitted because Im not working from home as much recently Plus once the coilovers are fitted I will need to get them setup [Hopefully by Horizon] and I want to order some new boots for tracking.

 

I think the interior will take a while.....

 

I will also be doing a full service on it when I get it..... and will get Yozza to change the cam belt [better be safe than sorry].

 

Im fitting some decent pads and disks and wheel bearings too.

 

So after all that I'll be ready!

 

 

PS.... Does anyone know anywhere that sells good harnesses at a good price locally?

PS.... Saw this yellow S1 on my way home. I gave the owner a MLOC card but he was a southerner who just bought it from Scotland!!!

Nice one mate, looks tidy

 

Did no.plate come with car?

[christurbo]

Yes - but not for long. Its worth at least £2500 so the garage wants it back [they are transferring it] but it does mean that I have to drive around with it on until its been transferred!

[M111]

I'd say offer them the £2500 Chris

 

I'd bet that there are people who would offer you double that without blinking an eye

[christurbo]

Hmmm, will have to think about that!

[MilesH]

Glad to see you found a suitable clio

Nice new wheel , what BHP is she running atm?

[christurbo]

It has an aftermarket filter [i think] but its probably running std @ 172bhp.
