Dont tell any body but you can get universal wheel nut removers http://www.lasertools.co.uk/item.aspx?item=821

I've got a mug with that cutting disc splatted look on the side

Sorry to say more & more cars have these fitted http://www.lasertools.co.uk/tools.aspx?cat=518 And every manufacture trys a diffrent spin on it

no dizzy on cvh just cap and rotor driven by camshaft. have both if you would like them but not in very good condition

Why not try Sir Clive Sinclairs route and use an old washing machine motor as the C5

had to go into my local DVLA ofice with a letter asking them to remove my name from the vehicle,stating reg of donor and that the vehicle had been scrapped. they stamped it as proof and I recieved a nice letter a few days later to thank me for letting them know.

Sorry Simon didn't see you hidding back there

Great weekend thank you orgernisers. nice to meet all the old and new faces. Had a little rain on way home but new surry kept us dry I'm sure there was some more room on the pitch for a few more and 4 L/W's too boot

is this any good for a surry Sail Cloth

thanks for the sugestions. could be cv as she had complained about a knocking when cornering a while ago. seemed to go in one ear out other

My wifes M reg 306 auto has developed a strange wooble on the steering at low speed nearly pulling the wheel out of your hands this gets less the quicker you go? If you do take you hands off it shots to the left. Thought it was a buckled wheel to start with but both are fine so looked at the bottom ball joints and wishbones they all look ok with no noticable movement with pry bar. the tie rod end was a bit loose, replaced but still has problem. the car has power steering. Has any body got any ideas before I send it down to the garage.

Should have gotten a lightweight that would have cured you

You couldalways fit an aero screen mine pased with this made from two number plates and crome edging strip. the wind screen is a lot better and not too difficult to fit.

Think you need one more for the set is the red one the automatic?

Most exhaust centres now do a range of woven flexes to replace the ones in catalytic converter front pipes see here this company also does sports cats

metal fence supports for engine mounts, oven grill for.........grill!

the long two covered with plastic are what i used for the my flyscreen. sorry dont reconise the rest

Happy Birthday Graham, now dont foget to drink in moderation or you might be sleeping in the back of the van again.

DVLA issued me with my chassis number and this was verified at the build up inspection. Have heard that it depends on the area your in as some have used the rh invoice number and other letters of thier choice. Sorry can't help with the axle wieghts on your car, try a search.

No wonder they kept bringing the dammed things back

Sorry Chris after 1992 all petrol cars had to have a cat and the Sierra was made untill 94. Not very many around with them on but I have sold them in the past. Bosal UK

Hi Graham Disappointed at the fail because Vosa (Newcastle) can not to see beyond "it's a lightwieght" even with the additional strengthing. We know over 4 LW's are on the road legally and I dont think mine has as much reinforcement as your two but passed. As yet I've found my car great fun and was driven daily until the recent bad weather and I have not seen any problems with the rivitted joints. Hope Simon can get this sorted. Colin

After two new computers and various dabbles with operating systems I've lost my website design software and after looking at my website it needs a revamp. can anybody reccomend a free website design programm and a ftp Thanks Colin

Hi Chris Mine is also from a CVH and I made up a plate to compansate for the different angle. This was bolted to the pedal box supplied. I also incorprated a strengthing bar to the steering column support to stop the box flexing. http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f179/clnpp/pedalbox.jpg Hope the picture works for you. Colin
