Automotive accessories, MK2 Clio project car. North Yorkshire.

Restoring the paint on my car so it's all the same shade of black has made me realise that professional services are absolutely worth the cost. 3 hours spent on just doing scratches and plastic and it's vaguely the same colour.

Also figured out the window problem. Broken switch. All good now.

Day out with the race car at NY500.

So today we began fixing things on the clio. First was new windscreen wipers. Then we fitted a new window regulator which we discovered wasn’t the broken part anyway and the window still won’t go down. Back to the forums I guess.

So, introducing our new project: "Fifi" a mk2 clio!

[💔No Commitments Racing Team💔 @no_commitments]

We decided to sell the car to a drift racer, rather that than scrap it.

[💔No Commitments Racing Team💔 @no_commitments]

So that didn't go well.

MOT tomorrow, so a good clean and some accessories are needed

Unexpected weight saving technique.

Hydroplaning at 60mph is not fun. 0/10 do not recommend.

New brighter headlight bulbs installed, because the old ones were like a candle and I don't think they had been changed since coming out of the factory.

Snow day!

Ah the joys of owning an aging car. Guess what's broken and win some merch 💔

[💔No Commitments Racing Team💔 @no_commitments]

Some updates - we're still here! We're moving to a new location with a proper workspace so things will be a little slow until then 🖤

[💔No Commitments Racing Team💔 @no_commitments]

This one wasn't my fault. And it's a panel that was going to be replaced anyway but still!

[💔No Commitments Racing Team💔 @no_commitments]

What's a good daily driver under 5k? Because we're inevitably going to have to carry some wheels or body panels and the mx5 is a bit too small for that.

[💔No Commitments Racing Team💔 @no_commitments]

Things learned while driving the mx5:
It can out accelerate a MR2.
It can out corner a Focus RS.
It absolutely cannot keep up with a R34 Skyline GTR and I don't know why I even bothered trying.

[💔No Commitments Racing Team💔 @no_commitments]

Night drives 🖤

[💔No Commitments Racing Team💔 @no_commitments]

I am a little concerned about storm Babet. We're located right next to a harbour and, well the mx5 is quite low.

[💔No Commitments Racing Team💔 @no_commitments]

Oof. Not even racing yet, I clearly just can't park. If anyone wants so donate to help fix this, I'll send some super rare prototype merch!
