So it seems the clios fucked ![](/board/images/smile/shocked2.gif)
So ive did a bit on the imp -- stripped the lights and fuel tank ect

I cut the front grill/matrix out

This however spoilt my day again...
Soooo found some rot
![](http://i209.photobucket.com/albums/bb271/corsabadboy/Hillman%20imp%202/8302421B-EA79-4CF6-A009-49591E153263.jpg)
Then exposed some uber thick bodge
![](http://i209.photobucket.com/albums/bb271/corsabadboy/Hillman%20imp%202/F41FF1B5-B71B-4C2B-88D0-C5DB5C70C6FF.jpg)
Hmmmm then this
Ok chassis leg
![](http://i209.photobucket.com/albums/bb271/corsabadboy/Hillman%20imp%202/598DECA0-C8B9-4383-8C0A-F49C4A387977.jpg)
Fucked one
![](http://i209.photobucket.com/albums/bb271/corsabadboy/Hillman%20imp%202/1C6A2C62-7005-447D-AC0E-DFB5312BDB04.jpg)
So that means it needs a new front panel and chassis leg... Already knew the wings were fucked so going to try and get a 1 piece fibre glass front and semi space frame it up

Not a defender no...
Renault sport clio 200
Its actually a 60 plate but it comes with the private one.. 46k miles, full Renault history, recaros, cruise control, climate ect
Years tax, mot and warranty
Very tidy bar a stone chipped bumper.. Ill probably have that painted a different shade of red.. And maybe drill the airbox and fit some h and r springs..
Gave £7.5k and the broken dci.. Chuffed - it handles sooo well, flat as a fart though if you arent bouncing it off the limiter.

I think you've picked an awesome colour for this mate and that kit will look stunning are you doing any contrasting colours I.e wheels or a cage if you put one in?

Recaro CS seats look the nuts. The rear end is bland as fuck tho and really looks like its been forgotten about by the designer lol. Needs a spoiler of some kind to toughen it up.

Think the rear seats are just standard across the range?

Sprint spoiler from Ktec, don't be tempted by Cup. It only looks good on some cars
