Got this out of hibernation as booked a trackday this Sat just gone. As always the French fancy performed like a dream. Blasted about all day and the only real thing to note was the power steering boiling over. Only happened towards the end of the day when I seem to get a bit cocky and end up staying out for a few two many laps. I have changed the fluid a few times with a syringe, which I know doesn’t get it all out but it’s nice and red not black. It’s apparently a common thing on tracked Clio’s, think I might buy a cheap cooler and just plumb it in the return line and should

That’s mega! Mrs T has wanted one of these for a while.

It’s going in to my local man for a full service, so far got, oil, oil, fuel and air filters, plugs, leads, dizzy cap, rotor arm. Auto box filter and fluid, radiator, coolant, diff oil, drive belts, Will see if this helps it, if not will get it off to a specialist to sort the hot start issue, will also measure the economy to see where we are at. If not I have seen that Albert Lock come up in searches for specialists for these. Northampton is only a hour away roughly from me. Also bornite I have a ace, our very own vulgalour, hand drawn pic of the super Sierra, I think it should be

It is 4 speed auto. They feel a bit like a 3 speed as they start off in second unless you boot it from the get go.

Been putting some miles on this lately. The ride is sublime compared to all my other motors. My route to work goes through a couple of villages and any modern over the speed bumps is crap. This just glides over them. Economy seems shit. Filled up a few times now and not getting more than 200/220 miles to a tank. Should probably work it out, but seems juicy. The radio and it’s two speakers are surprisingly good. I wanted to use this loads and love my music. So might try and sort the stereo into a real nice sounding affair. With maybe some retro components, or at least make it look stock.

Yeah photos working for me fine. I love a Saab. This guy is worth a follow. http://saabvsscepticism.co.uk

That’s a billy bargain. Its mega this! maybe you should hold onto it, your soooooo close to sorting it.

No not for daily use, will get regular use and will be used for work quite often. Gave it a good clean today as been busy last week. It’s had some bad paint on the front wings at the bottom which is quite noticeable in the direct sun. It also needs the front two jacking points looking at. They have some fresh black stone chip bashed on. So looking at having that all sorted as the rest is pretty god damn good. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Mrs T is not a car person one single bit. She looked out the window and said “what you parked that heap on the drive for” I tried to tell her that Lada Gaga has one so must be cool. And also that John Lennon used to have one. https://www.thedrive.com/news/23034/imagine-buying-john-lennons-last-ride-a-1979-mercedes-benz-300td-station-wagon Still no good. Must try harder.
