Hello, someone left a card under my wipers :)

As above. At Michael Wood services on the M5 (South)

Anyway, I live near Gloucester and I drive a MK1 Clio 1.8 16v

Welcome to the forum, that was probably one of the guys who was on their way to today's track day at Llandow in Wales.

Welcome pal get some pics up of the clio

Welcome

Cheers folks



(sorry if it's huge, using my phone)

Welcome, nice tidy Clio there!

Was some of us on the way to Llandow this morning that left the card under your wipers

Hi!

It was sam who put the card under the wiper.

Welcome

Welcome to the club

Thank you all!

Haven't actually took the car on track yet, but i plan to at some point

Clicky

Perfect oppurtunity

Hmmm, car needs to sort its self out first!

Looked uber tidy tbh

Glad you've signed up... lots of us are from round this way.... and we need more girls on track... it's kinda one sided atm

Cheers dude

But yeah i agree with Chris... PCAD at combe is the perfect 'taster' to track.... Sign up

Welcome along. Car is looking tidy!

Welcome car looks very nice

I did have the courtesy of leaving you the card under your wiper

Predicting 10+ pages.

^ High hopes

:O

What milage? Normally the sub £500 ones are rusty as hell!?

Cars done 152k, engines done about 90k. I reckon they've gone up in price since i was looking.
,
Previous owner sold it as he was going to zee war, so not sure if that affected the price to be fair. Mines had the arches done a few years ago, one side perfect, other has a little flakey patch. Bit of bubbling around the rear wiper and the sills are okay i suppose. MOT man did put my suspension mounts as 'excessively corroded' though

152k mile shell! looks like it has been looked after...now abuse it on track

You're going to the wrong MOTerist then! I've just looked on ebay actually.... and prices have shot up... maybe its becoming more of a classic!!

Thats the B4T way!

its hard to pick up a clean Williams these days for less than a few grand and I think that's knocked on to the few remaining good valvers.

Welcome to the club

I'm sorry to spam your thread with this but i've got to ask...

Stu why has my name changed in your quote above?

Wow how many speling mistakes in one centence.

I won't be changing my name...

I will then

noooo it will live on in memory...

It's got a wonderful miss fire when ever it feels like it, i just haven't been arsed to sort it, so it's my fault really. It'll probably be dealt with by Combe, then its the chance of saying a nice hello to quarry and money

Have you tried hitting it with a hammer?

Combe is one £5 for entry, £15 for track... prefect intro

That happens whatever the issue. Old dear reckons its the temp sensor or something along those lines.

Ha, been round as a passenger a million times so would make a refreshing change i suppose and this kid from work said he'd take his car out if it's ready.

Get your name down on the list you will love it

Definatly come, Combe was my first time on track in a car and I loved it. Caught the bug, which is why I'm (unfortunately ) now on here!

doooooo ittt!

Ahhh, tempted!

you're on here and you're female, if you don't do it by choice, you'll basically be abducted by a hit squad of slavering virgins and forced to lap Combe.

Just sayin

Interesting...ha.

He does look like he should be on track..

dont tell her the truth Alex

I'm only kidding, we're no Cliosport on here
