Project Clio

[mike]

Here is my little 1.2 Clio RL Prima.

I was offered it by a friend for a bargain price with a full years MOT but no tax.

It would of been rude to say no..

The shell is completely rust free, a few scratches on the drivers door and the nearside wing a bit dented, nothing that can't be sorted though.

It was completely standard when I got it a week ago.

In that time I've fitted a few bits from my 1.4 Maxim S that I've been stripping:

ImageShack® - Online Photo and Video Hosting

I've fitted:

Front bucket seats and rear seats

RSi Alloy wheels (In need of a refurb I know)

1.4 Clocks which include rev counter and temp gauge

I've replaced all the blown bulbs in the clocks and heater controls also

I've also taken the door looms from the Maxim S and fitted electric window regulators and front door speakers.

I just dropped the torsion bar down as well, ready for some front springs now. It looks REALLY low in the picture, but it's just my crap camera. The tyre sits about 10mm into the arch.

My future plans are:

Colour coded bumpers, side trims, wing mirrors and door handles.

RSi boot spoiler

De-badged, de-locked and de-wipered boot

and eventually..

an RSi engine.

Oh yea, this is Melissa.. My helper. You may have seen my post in the General thread introducing you all to her..

Nothing else done really. Gave it a good clean today and took some pics. It will also be for sale when I pick up the Chammy

very tidy wee car that. Just a shame the wheels let it down a bit.

i was considering some speakers in the doors of my clio too, do you have any more pics of the exact door cards that are in yours? are they mounted into the plastic door pockets like on the r19?

No, they are next to the door pocket. This is the only picture I could find, this is a poverty model because it doesn't have door speakers. It sits on the right of the door pocket. The holes in the door will be there to house them, your just need to cut the door card and get plastic thingys to screw the speakers into.. Hope this helps.

ah yes those ones are the same cards as in mine, im poverty spec too but mine has a quite fruity design in the cloth which i hope to get rid of asap, thanks mike
