It's sat in my garage waiting for someone to buy it (free plug  :lipsrsealed: http://www.golfgtiforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=182957.0) as I got something French (traitor I know, lol) - so it needs a roll cage before I'm going anywhere near a track, haha.

Yeah  :cool:  Seems pretty good so far, last owner spent a load of money on it so I get the benefits for less work and money (lazy I know but I spend too much time at work to do it myself :( ). Hopefully see you out and about again, I'll get some tips off you about how to do the polycarb windows ;) haha

With regards to the clios, I have just put mine away in the garage. Have a 52 172 Cup with a few little mods on. Great fun for so few quid. If I don't sell it before hand (hoping wifey don't force me to!) I'll be sorting it out for track days in the summer. Give it a good thrashing for sure - they are definately what I'd call a rewarding drive. Many, many, many smiles to the gallon  :grin:
