    Rik Perry Sachs Refurbs - Missing Dampers?

    That's why the whole situation is so disappointing and frustrating. I'm not sure what is going on. :confused:

    Rik Perry Sachs Refurbs - Missing Dampers?

    Nothing is being given at the moment, Patrick. From chatting with others, it appears that they have been blocked from contacting him. Hence the reason why they reached out to me. Very disappointing.

    Rik Perry Sachs Refurbs - Missing Dampers?

    I have to admit that I find writing this post both difficult and disappointing. However, it has come to my attention that there are a few people who sent their Sachs dampers to Rik for refurbishment many years ago, and who have not been able to get them back. I, too, find myself faced with the...

    Well, I will probably have time seeing as I will be without a job in two weeks time, Francis! :ROFLMAO: I was considering taking the rest of the year off!

    Road Trip Research

    Agreed! The section of the RN from Castellane to Grasse is superb! I haven't been since 2007 (when I took ownership of #165) and I think a trip there is well overdue!

    Sorry to see it is gone, but gone to a good home by the sounds of it. :cool: On a related note, I am assuming you won't be coming along on the Welsh Weekender and will remove you from the event. (y)

    Missing Sachs Dampers - Anyone Else?

    Hi all, hope you are well. This is a post that I really don't want to make but, following on from recent events, I am trying to get in touch with a couple of people regarding "missing" Sachs dampers. I will explain more in a moment, but the reason I am reaching out here is because I am trying...

    Good wash mitt / drying towel

    I've never used it to blow the leaves, only dry the cars. We have gardeners that take care of the leaves... 🫣:ROFLMAO: EDIT: Gardeners, @photo_ed not included. He lives too far away. :ROFLMAO:

    Good wash mitt / drying towel

    The blower is great for the wheels and getting water out of jambs and tight places. It's even more useful on my Porsche as it gets excess water out of the aero, nooks, and crannies! I just use a drying towel and detailing spray to mop up any left over water. I also use a filtered water system...

    Good wash mitt / drying towel

    Full disclaimer, the owners behind Yum Cars are friends of mine. I exclusively use their products for all my cleaning and maintenance these days. They aren't the cheapest, but they are good quality products. :) Ed, the drying towel is great. As with general microfibre care, it is best to wash...

    A Rather Pleasant Evening...

    I might suggest that for next year - they certainly have the land, personnel and vehicles for it! :unsure::ROFLMAO: Amazing watching them in action. I've been watching that "Dear God" incident from the 1983 Manx where Ari clipped the wall, got a puncture, and slid the car through that tight...

    A Rather Pleasant Evening...

    To be honest, I only found out about the event a day or so beforehand when I randomly bumped into my mate and his folks whilst driving home to Wales following a trip to the Lake District! I didn't really have time to spread the word nor did I know what to expect. Next year... The family has...
