Well if all goes to plan I'm getting this tomorrow. Yay finally In a renaultsport Clio.
After doing lots of research thinking I've decided that it has good potential to be a minter and the fundamentals are good.
Most of the bits are getting sorted under warranty, I've got the bonnet painted and the tyre sorted.
Tried to sell my golf private but have had no interest at only £500 more than the dealer is giving me as a trade so that's getting part exed.
I've even got an alpine 133bt sitting here ready to go in plus some shiny new renaultsport mats.
I'm a bit excited!
I might get time to detail it over the weekend and if so I'll stick a few pics up on here.

I think you'll love it. Had mine for about 6 weeks and it's great fun. Still learning the car as only drive it a couple of times a week but it does most things better than other 'hot hatches' i've owned over the past 8-10 years.
If anything a little too capable on country roads as the speedo is indicating more than you would expect, but it's not a race and the car can be enjoyed within legal limits.

I'm from cumbria about 2.5 hrs away from Glasgow.
The dealer did mention that they had sold an alien green one in the past, quite possibly yours.
Good to know there a decent servicing department too.
And me - always german fare. This is my first piece of french **** and it knocks socks off of any of them.
Got it home yesterday after a long day out to Glasgow. They have made a top notch job of the bonnet respray it's as good as factory tbh. Here's a couple of pics at home....
Let the cleaning commence.
excuse the crappy iphone pics ill put some propper ones up once its cleaned.

Well after spending half of yesterday and most of today cleaning its getting somewhere near to how clean i want it.
I washed and protected the interior, then washed it, tardised it, then gave it a coat of zymol glassur. the wheels were sealed and the engine bay given a quick spruce up leaving this....
that at least gets it cleaned and protected for now but it definately needs a good polish with the rotary as under the spot light its far from swirl free...
sorry for all the pics.
Now i might drive it, lol.
