I saw someone (On facebook ?) had picked up their completed Clio after the conversion from them during the week.

So i kinda guessed yours might be next.

Great news. You on the home stretch now Ben.........

That makes a bit of sense now. Not on FB otherwise might’ve clocked it! Home stretch now fingers crossed.

Really excited to see this at Bedford Ben, everything crossed for you for a smooth build! Pics needed of the Forge intercooler fitted, that gives me ideas...

Good news mate.

Bet you were well giddy seeing those photos!

Fingers crossed it’s all smooth and swift sailing through to the finish.
 
R26R BR is available as a private plate for next to nothing. Looks cool laid out how I’ve got it with my initials separated. What’s the legality of that though? Don’t want plod pulling me over everytime I venture out!!
 
Still looking for private plate. Current shortlist (which will no doubt change again):smile:

R26 MBR
R26R BR
R26 BFN
R26 TBO
R26 TUR

Some good plates available for £250:thumb:

It's illegal to space the plate like that so you are giving the plod the excuse to pull you over & then they'll probably give the car a good going over to see what else they can get you on. I still think the plate would be good for you though. Just don't mess with the spacing.

Thanks John. Won’t be using illegal spacing then!!
