Yep forgot about that. I had one lying around and I preferred it. Excuse the dirt, could do with a wash.

Forgot to mention it's a 1992 on a J-plate. Points to note are that the interior is pretty much mint for this age of car. It also has some bits like push button start, induction kit and avo adjustable ...

This car was my daily driver for 2 years. It never skipped a beat in that time, the most that needed doing was the headlight aim, a new clutch cable and a new exhaust.

It's got 71K on the clock whi ...

Couple of hundred quid probably.

Biggest problem is that since I moved out I don't have any room or much spare time to fix the car.

Thanks for the advice Chris, I have to say that when I drove t ...

Hi, I haven't been on the forum for a while, mainly due to the R19 being off road for the last couple of months. (The tax ran out and I have a new job with a car)

Anyway I put it in for an MOT yest ...

As I have a perfectly good F7P engine in my chamade (which I am replacing anyway) I was thinking of bastardising the car. Engine, seats ...

Thanks for the helpful replies.

I have now sorted it.

I had to take the clutch pedal off, remove the spring and reset the ratchet.

It wouldn't stay in place so I had to mount it and then put ...

Pedal is not caught on anything and cable is definitely through the guide.

I would have thought if it was the wrong cable it would be miles out? Rather than just a few cm?

I can't really tell if ...

It snapped the other day.

Bought a new one for £20 from Renault, told them it had Bendix ABS and have just spent the last couple of hours trying to fit it.

Everything was going fine until I cam ...

For a 19 16v? I know lots have people have done them and my car is approaching 70K so I thought it would be a good idea.

I have the original brochure for my p1 chammy which quotes 0-62 of 8.2 secs so those figures seem to be manufacturer's quotes.

I've got a set of phase1 alloys in the garage. Could do with a refurb but pretty good on the whole.

They would no doubt fit, but I would advise changing your tyres as soon as you get the chance to 195/50/15

Your speedo would also under-read a bit from standard
