Hello just got number 14. Very pleased with the car and the way it goes. It's my 1st decent fast 'new car' having always had classics. I'm 42 so not a real racer type. I think it will fit in well with some of the oldies own. Only poor areas for road driving in my opinion are: a bit of movement...

Hi I've just refitted my Sachs after CF serviced them and like at least one other person on here they seem incredibly firm. Now I've owned my T for about 5 years and I've driven lots of other Ts so I have a pretty good idea of what's normal, and quite frankly my Sachs dampers currently feel...

Hi, just removed the old sprung manifold to cat fitting kit. Should the new 'cup' that fits into the front, manifold side, be difficult to get in. Should it be forces in or go in with a little pressure? I dont want to damage the manifold or gaskets my hammering it too much. I got the North West...

I have a load more but when I try and transfer them to the forum they fail. I think its because there too big 4000 x 2500 or something, I dont know how to resize lol simon

Hi guys Looking for some advice - my driver's Recaro has developed a very irritating rattle. It sounds like a ball bearing or a screw; when I accelerate it goes one way and then the other when I brake; it's very annoying! I've searched around the web but cannot find any answers. From listening...

Evening, hoping someone can shed some light on an odd charging problem my Trophy's sprung upon me. I had a new alternator fitted a couple of months back and all was well until a couple of weeks ago. The car runs fine but after about an hour's continuous running if you turn the car off the...
