    Prices! Whats going on?!

    right, my beef is basically, why are these cars just not worth that much money anymore? for a car as amazing as this to drop from £15,00 in 5 years is pretty shocking, i think asking for £4000, £5000, or even £6000 when selling yours is rediculous. these cars are classic and a piece of history...

    Seats and wheel

    Drove my friends quite now heavily modified 172 which has buckets and sabelt wheel and harnesses - makes me think I want to do the same as I hate the driving position of the trophy. I was thinking of some mildly aggressive seats like the sabelt titans which are in the r26r. What's other people done

    Recaro Seat Position

    I'm getting really irritated by the seat position in the T. The recaro's are not height adjustable like my 1.2 seats were. The steering wheel is as high as it will go and still my hand bashes my leg and gets in the way during sharp cornering. Has anybody come across a way to lower the seat...

    Well after running around with the dreaded Serv and TC warning lights on for the last few months I finally took it in for a brake pedal sensor change which appeared to fix the problem.

    The standard air box seems to have two inlets for air. One with a cold air feed pipe that disappears somewhere underneath the nearside headlamp and another inlet without any cold air feed. Is this right ? Still having trouble with my T :(
