    Yup, believe me. To do an evo too a good standard is eye watering money for what they are! Rear diff gave up on mine, 2nd hand evo 8 one plus fitting etc. £1200.

    Hi folks, new owner here!

    Hi all, I find my self in project car ownership once, again after a few years away spending money on the house rather than cars, now I'm back! My previous toy was a Mitsubishi evo 6, so a change of pace with the Clio. I must say though I was impressed with the chassis capability on the Clio...
