Ever so slightly jealous of all this as it is an itch I am unlikely scratch. 172 cup AND hillclimbin, that sounds a lot of fun. Interesting (though unsurprising) that you are fitting Sachs. I wasn’t sure you would be able to swap out to different suspension. What geometry are you going to go...

It’s a shame GeorgeK is not still on the site, he used to hillclimb his trophy in “out of the box” class but was constantly looking at ways to tweak the undercarriage etc. In the end he swapped it out for a Honda something as it was just not competitive enough in class. Still racing though, I...

Mmmm some seriously nice cars here, puts the daily slag to shame. Poor thing, the only photos I have of it are when I got rear ended, BMW 118d.

Ding ding ding 🙂

I hope I’m not stating the obvious (I guess I am) that that looks pretty bad and unexpected to be honest. A good reminder to the rest of us to check our (made of cheese) jacking points.

Arrived in double quick time with the usual Ed wrap it to an inch of its life packaging 🙂As always, perfect.

Yes please if still available. I was convinced I had bought both upper and lower parts years ago. Anyway I only have the uppers and the above will at least allow me a spare when it begins to get brittle and crack. Yup, they do that!

I’m a little late to the party on this. I may be interested but I can‘t remember what I have. I can check this afternoon after work. Don’t feel you need to wait though.

I’d be thinking the same if it was not mine. Pesky plastic fixings are getting brittle with old age, but aren’t we all.

Is not the Megs stuff for internal trim? Colour wise, I would say off black. Gtechniq C4 is my weapon of choice here. Does anyone know how to safely remove the sticker inserts? Mine are now fairly bleached and crispy 😕

That does look wrong, I always thought that the tips extended beyond the bumper and found this, pretty sure this is a scorpion. https://cliotrophy.co.uk/threads/470.40846/page-6 Post #105

Shed, garage, plant pot 😉
