So, you washed a car.

Looks in great condition! Glad you saved this little motor. I'm still rolling in my Clio mk2 1.2 16v D4F-712 from 2003.

It’s awesome that you’ve saved this clio Love these clios I had one my self a 2000 model and my cousin has had a 2002 (52) plate from brand new she bought it from Renault Liverpool and still has it too this day been a good reliable car I don’t see why it needs swapping if it’s mechanically ok and still passing mot’s

Looks like you found a real gem there, Lots of potential!

This is only the second video I've seen but I'm loving your choice of cars! Reminds me of when I was a kid.

Just found your channel and liking the content. Thank you 👍

A plead from a headphone user - please boost your camera audio to match the music/subscribe clips as they almost deafened me because your camera audio was so quiet! 😂

Great video, I have the same exact model as this one but white, it have 285000 km until now, I make 1000 km per month and no issues, it consumes more water than gasoline 😂, now I know it's the radiator leaking... It goes 120 km on the highway no problem and very good handling, little reliable gem!

Full Deceased Spec as Jonny Smith would say. Those era Clios and Meganes all had dodgy underseat plugs, forever setting the SRS light.

MG rostyles mate

These little Clio were the best. I’ve had four over the years and all great runners. The airbag light is always a general issue the plug is under drivers seat.

5:18 rear tyres Tigar Sigura 😃 Made in Serbia 💪 glad to see the old gal back on the road

I love it when a good car is saved!

What a little gem. Certainly deserves to live on 👍

Congrats on your fine acquisition and enjoy!

Why are the wipers going the opposite direction to the drivers side?

A nice li'le runabout!

I'm glad you saved it. I love this era of Renault, but particularly these Clio's my Auntie owned a 2000 Clio had it from new up until about 2010.

I really enjoyed this video. Thanks for that. Glad the car wasn't sent to the scrapyard. We must try and keep things alive instead of throwing them away. I have a 207 with about 190000 on the clock and I intend to keep it alive as long as the government doesn't punish me too hard in taxes. The government in Denmark wants us to buy new cars. But why can't we keep our old cars alive

I had S510GUA. An Orange 1.6 RXE with the same alloys.

Tigar tyres, Serbia!

best Renault made these

Maby you just saved the scrap yard from the clio? god video btw keep going!

Soo long for what it is tourture to watch

Also the radio code wa sin the servicemanual

Might be worth editing the video to remove the key number and locking wheelnut number

Hi, I've had a sedan Clio from 2001 1.4 8v 75hp. Loved that car, was bought new from the dealership by my parents, full options by that time, with ac and 14' alu wheels. Sold it when it was 250k km and saw it running at 320.ooo km very good at a friend (whom i sold it). Our has had 12 years guarantee for rust at the body and 100.000 km the engine's guarantee. Consumed around 6-7 liters of gasoline per 100km. Very good and reliable cars. Loved this video, every minute of it!

You did a nice job on the old girl, I hope you made a tidy profit on it.

I'm glad you managed to save it from the scarp yard. There has been FAR TOO MUCH scarping of cars in the past few years.........

I never doubted the MG would pass the MOT. I'm looking forward to seeing some more on the escort. You just need to convince him to scrap the Mondeo now.

Lovely job, a nice deep shine on the old girl now.

TOP job mate looking good

Apologies for being a few days late watching this, The last 4 days have been rather busy for me and I've only just had time to sit and watch this. Great progress on the MG, I bet your glad you had the spares car to get some bits off of.

Great video, its good to see you getting more confident in front of the camera as well.

You gonna rescue the ZTT in that barn as well next?

People who take the piss out of the ZS and say its a Rover 45 with a MG badge have never driven one

Very nice usable future classic,give it a thorough service and away you go.

Its amazing the difference a good clean can make. definitely much more pleasant to work on now its clean.

What a lovely save, sounds sweet without the airbox attached 😂

Best of luck🙏🏻

thats 2 huge areas of ROT that need cutting out. little patches no good.

We are British, that's not how Chassis is pronounced, that's how the Americans say it.

The old girl held up really well

As a former mechanic, I struggle to comprehend why oils and fluids are not changed first, clean out the carb, replace the plugs, points and condenser and filters, it will be so much easier to start, new battery on it and you are good to go.......you would replace the service items anyway, so why not now.

That's a old Ford for you I haven't done a mk2 escort for 20 years for a friend I've never owned one myself but had plenty of fiestas mk1 and mk3 & 4 but any Ford is expensive and must have deep pockets for the parts and if you can't do the welding then it's more expensive I'm lucky it's been my trade for 25 years and only do cars for mot I'm my spare time as my knees are shot I have to sit down on a seat with wheels on so it do slows me down a bit it's a big task you got just keep doing bits and you will get there I've seen a lot worse 👍

The sense of satisfaction is always our reward for hard work. Hope you have many years of enjoyment 😸

I see she is full of old car surprises....good to see them being exposed for all to see, the sneaky blighter's....

Love the paint job, that's at least 10 mph extra.

So many memories....I NEVER had access to a hoist in my Escort days, all work was done outside my house, in the street with a trolley jack, jack stands and a bottle jack. I still remember having to undo the front engine mounts to tilt the engine up at the front to get the gearbox bell housing down and away from the firewall. 6 inches of input shaft, one inch of clearance, because back in the British factory in the 1970's, they decided to fit engine and gearbox up as a unit, so it lifted straight up into position.....all good if you can get the entire car 10 foot off the ground..... I suggest whilst you have it out you change the pins on the selectors inside the gearbox, I have had these shear off with use. Also check the clutch throw out fork for stress cracks. I did my clutch once, put the gearbox back in the car, bolted it up again and was set to go for a test drive. Pushed the clutch pedal and it went right to the firewall and stayed there. I thought the cable had slipped at first, but after crawling back under the car, I found the throw out fork had folded and split at the pivot bolt inside the bell housing. So out came the gearbox again......and this went on the checklist for any future event. I went through clutches quite a bit....the tiny two plate Ford item didn't like 190+ HP......but ported, balanced and blueprinted 1600 Ford motors are FUN ......ask anyone that drives a Formula Ford....
