Always liked this shape of Clio, this one came along at a good price.
  
Needs a bit of work but shes a solid base. |

My friend had one of these as a first car. He wasn't happy when he looked out his window one morning to see the local chavs had tipped it on its side  |

Got to love the mk1's. I had a brief stint with 16v a few years ago. the mk'1 were very capable handling cars.  |

Nice, bargains can still be had with these, but they will rise, just like the 5's.
I still consider getting one, but I have no where to put it.
What are the plans for this?

My plans are to lower her a bit and add some wider wheels, I'm also thinking about changing the autobox 3speed (lol) for manual, parts are easy to find and it seems pretty cheap on parts too. Apart from that just clean her up deal with a few rust spots, enjoy driving her. Even with the 3 speed auto shes still very nippy, she cost me £130 with 6 months test. I will update here as I get into her. This weekend I'm going to be doing a cambelt/waterpump change and the usual service bits, then start looking for suspension parts and wheels  Thanks for looking. |

Not much to report have done timing belt and waterpump, changed all fluids including autobox oil. Sorted out a few electrical gremlins, Renaults seem to come with these as standard and fitted a new old stock radio/cassette player.   |

Hey!
I've just joined and have just got a 1994 1.4 RT auto (swapped a Focus for it haha)
Looking for inspiration as its looking a bit tired! Don't have much funds wise but even the little things help :-)
Looking to do a face lift conversion at some point in the future
