  1. It had a new starter when it had the new engine fitted so unlikely he's fitted another new one maybe a solenoid as it was abit sticky. The air filter did have a small hole over cylinder 1 due to a occasional backfire through the carb. So maybe got another and it did need a MOT I probably sold it for more than it was worth to be honest. Due to the registration it is not worth 4k I watched a few on eBay which were correctly registered and they didn't even make 3k. Also due to age of the registration it was tax exempt which made you a tax evader due to it not being a 1965 car

     

    Do what I should have and regretted not doing and

     

    WALK AWAY DO NOT BUY IT!!!!!!

  2. It's a robin hood s7 monocoque. Loads of paperwork with it but no IVA/sva and you probably wouldn't be able to get it through now. Running a 2.1 pinto on bike carbs, digital dash. Wrapped in carbon. Guy's I sold it to wanted it for a bit of fun and project as they lived near a track.

     

    Had a new rebuilt engine around 6 months before I got it.

     

    Surprised he didn't bin it on the first corner he took as he booted it soon as he got the corner.

     

    Got a phone call later that night saying the Speedo didn't seem to be accurate as he was doing 100mph and his mate was having to do 120mph to keep up also said you really have to boot it to get it sideways around corners.

  3. So got a choice here we can ether do the shoot at the Coventry motorfest gives more people the opportunity to take part or at a location in Leicestershire what's everyone's thoughts?

  4. The problem is he's not normally available for things like this which is why it's took so long to sort out. If this is a success I will try my hardest to sort another date out with him for people that can't do this date

  5. Im away too, but sounds great! When can he come down south!?

    Good question lol I think he would need a pretty big group of people and higher price to go too far as he doesn't drive:/

    Great idea Matt, I'm in yes please......

    Thanks, been trying to organise it for a while and glad I managed to get it done. Just need a good turn out and hopefully he will do it again

  6. Ye looks a perfect place lol, open to suggestions on areas but must be relatively local to coalville due to transport for him as he doesn't drive so I'll be bringing him

  7. So I have managed to sort a photoshoot opportunity for the rhocar community to be held on Saturday the 3rd (next Saturday).

     

    The photoshoot will be conducted by a Motorsport photographer who is currently working alongside Bentley Motorsport and M-sport to provide photographs of their GT3 race days and is also the coalville town football clubs main photographer.

     

    The shoot will take place in Leicestershire. Specific location not yet decided but will be in the Leicestershire area.

     

    Time for the shoot are from 10am until 12am

     

    I have managed to get a discount for club members. prices are an absolute bargain at just £5 per vehicle.

    Please check out his Facebook page to see the quality of his work and I'm sure you will all agree that at just £5 it is a absolute steal.

     

    Please let me know if you are interested in this so I can arrange a suitable location
