Shame you've had to SORN it to do more work!! You'll hate not been able to drive it.
Is the TIP and airbox just for the BAM engine or fits all the 1.8T's?? I maybe interested if your going to be selling it

Aye tell me about it! I'll be pulling all of the interior out soon, I know I'll want to drive it if I sit in the Drivers Seat!
I think the TIP and Airbox will fit all 1.8T's based on the Mk4 chassis (might have to check TT etc). The Tip may have a slightly bigger diameter at the MAF & Turbo end to suit the larger LCR sizes but nothing a little tougher clamping down wouldn't sort!

Been a killer for me seeing the Clio sat there, especially now I've put it back to standard!
Once I get my 1.8T I'll have a look and i can measure it up

Tbh though, having the VX off road since basically last November has given the grand sum of zero motivation to do anything at all to it.
All it needs is for me to change two engine mounts and get inside the engine to take a look at the pistons. Probably a day's work in all.
Just can't be bothered

 sorry bud.
It's not going to happen overnight unfortunately. We'll see, I've had a few tyre kickers and test pilots / joy riders interested. Along with people wanting bits off it.

Well, things have changed (again!).
Fed up of Tyre Kickers and Time Wasters, the LCR is getting back on the road. MOT, Insurance and Tax sorted over the last couple of days. It's currently off with A&E Automotive to have a bit of an Overhaul and it will be back for some use this year!
Whilst it's ok for the Road, before it goes back on Track it will need:
New Tyres (£500)
New Rotors (£360)
New Pads (£180)
It's already having Coolant, Oil, Brake Fluid and all Filters changed today or tomorrow and then when money permits, the upgrades will be incoming 
Happy Days!
