Thanks Matt I don't want to get the OZ's refurbished too soon because I want to put them on around March, if they are sat around finished waiting to go on I will get sad
We have a lot of lunatic drivers in our village, and parking on one side of the main road so I often get forced into the curb by people not waiting behind parked cars in their lane... The council are building a car park so hopefully this should stop before I put these wheels on
I wonder if it's possible to put a proximity sensor in each wingmirror where the thermostat is meant to go, wired to a camera lens hidden in my car (near the reading light). Would be good to have it automatically record when chavs try peeking inside the windows and save to an SD card in the headunit.

22mm Peugeot Sport torsion bars "arrived" today. They were dispatched on the 16th October, arrived in England on the 18th and the tracking website stopped updating on the 19th when it was passed on to a UK courrier. 10 days later I decided to phone round and find where my parcel went, I had to drive to the local depot to pick it up.
The address label looks deliberately torn off the box though they said it must have happened in transit. If I hadn't chased it down I wouldn't have received it

Not really an update or a change to my car, but my car was overdue a really good detail. So I gave it one of my own Enhancement Details + permanent sealant at my workshop today. I know, what kind of nutter goes back to work on a Saturday...

I got there at 2pm and left at 7 didn't require as much prep work as customer's cars due to how I've looked after it
You need an excuse to come down to the Midlands in the Clio!

Another update? Another thing to tick off my wanted list. Went out to pick up a GTi180 full interior today, here's a picture from when I got it back:
The glovebox cover, doorcards and rear seats are in mint condition, but the alcantara on the front seats are worse for wear - though I bought them as a little project. Just in the process of cleaning it all up at work as it looks like it wasn't cleaned for a while. I only wanted the front seats to work on so I will take offers for the doorcards, rear seats and glovebox cover, though I won't be giving it away for silly money.

The interior is now cleaned up, there's a real difference when compared to the photo above
The rear bench, glovebox cover and doorcards are in perfect condition, ready to sell. I am keeping the front seats, but I have my work cut out.
I have plans!

@JamieM: I think that Turini's suit better Clio than 206, because Clio has sharper edges.
@Andrew: if you want to put 7x16 ET 16 O.Z.'s You will definitly need sport wings.
I bought 7x16 ET 16 O.Z.'s a few months ago, and I decided not to put them on the car because I would be necessary to roll rear arches.

I'm looking for sport wings but nobody messages me back when I see some for sale
Plan is to not actually change anything on my car till Spring, but work on getting the wheels, interior and suspension ready to fit all together. Are you sure that you need to roll the rear arches? I'm sure Uz has used ET16 before without problem
