Re: The ebay thread
Started out as a 1.2, so missing some stronger bits that went into the 133, it’s had a few of them strapped on in the advert mind. I’m not sure if forced induction would suit the car, the n/a 133 isn’t the fastest but it was absolutely addictive with an induction roar and 7000rpm shiftlight that only a renaultsport n/a could do. Personally I’d go for a 2.0 clio 200 converted car, especially one performed by beanysport, they’re held in almost holy status by twingo nerds- just be prepared to be on first name terms with your local petrol station staff
Failing that buy a cheap one and go see Dan. I imagine one of his Honda lumps would be unreal

And the W8 is one I need to cross off my list…

Thank you.
Re: The ebay thread
Is that what SMs are worth now?
I’m sure the last time I looked £20k would get a decent one.

Think I’ve just had a little dribble in my pants
Re: The ebay thread
Nah, I’d rather have a real 037. Looks better without the rough edges smoothed out.

It's not bad but I couldn't do it, it would always bug me that the engine isn't longitudinal.speedingfine wrote: Sat Jun 22, 2024 10:28 pm TBF I agree. Or save yourself a few quid and get a rep: https://www.carandclassic.com/car/C1713267
I'd probably prefer a Kimera in a more Stradale spec, keep the Martini for an original.
If you're feeling a bit spendy like that though, why stop at 037? https://kimera--automobili-com.translat ... r_pto=wapp
