Chris' LY R27 Project 10/12/12

[Fernandez]

Ahh the man himself can't wait for mine, wanted one since I bought the Clio!

Might be able to do it earlier if you want it earlier...

 

[Chris197F1]

Yeah I'll just shove it on the credit card ha ha

 

[Fernandez]

Yeah I'll just shove it on the credit card ha ha

Leave it with me and I'll fb you.

 

[Chris197F1]

I have literally just FB'd you lol

 

[Chris197F1]

Well thats one big thing I dont have to worry about now, cambelt, aux belt and water pump have been done!

 

[N0ddie]

Excellent. Done for another 5 years at least.

 

[Chris197F1]

Well thats all the maintenance out of the way for a year. Car had the belts done last week and just passed its MOT on Saturday along with having its service done and gearbox oil changed.

Pick up my Clio 200 clocks today too and expecting a 200 diffuser with carbon rings in January.

 

[Chris197F1]

Just got my 200 clocks from Nick, really nice guy and his car gave me some nice ideas!

said clocks......

 

[N0ddie]

Will go very well withy the yellow theme. How much is it to get them reconfigured to your 197?

 

[Chris197F1]

cheers for the post Noddie. Do you think I should have yellow plastic surrounds like my current speedo has?

SteC is going to sort it out for £60 in the new year. That price is with me removing my current and then fitting the new.

 

[N0ddie]

Not bad price. Thinking bout it, maybe try them without the yellow rings first. Might be too much yellow otherwise.

 

[Chris197F1]

yeah thats my concern, dont want to take anything away from the yellow dials as that was one of the reasons I wanted the 200 clocks.

 

[Chris197F1]

This will probably be up for sale within the next couple of months. Its got:

28,000 miles
MOT Dec 2013
6 month tax

Will do a proper advert with price and further details when the time comes but just a heads up incase someone is looking out for a LY F1

 

[Mason]

Low mileage!

What's better than the clio to replace it ?

 

[Chris197F1]

a Clio Williams lol, always wanted to own one so im getting a cheap run around (corsa diesel sort of car)

 

[Chris197F1]

swift change of plans, I was originally buying a house which had a garage which meant I could finally store a clio williams however after further developments I will be no longer going for that house so the 197 will be staying in my possession. Not much planned for it this year, Ive got a 200 diffuser coming from Fernandez and hopefully at some point this year id like to have the Recaros retrimmed.

 

[shubz197]

Williams is a great car! I'd buy one at the drop of a hat if I had the cash laying around

 

[Chris197F1]

Yeah my issue is the storage, any local units cost too much and dont really want to have to drive to where my car is stored. A house with a garage was the perfect solution but the house needed to much money spending on it, I was stretching my budget as it was.

 

[smoggy mark]

Tell the truth chris you just carnt live with out your LY

 

[Chris197F1]

Ahhh I knew you were too clever to be fooled Mark! Damn you
