  1. Just buy decent all season tyres, I've run my 307cc on them for years with good traction in all weathers. I have them on my xc90 now and in the recent snow it went up hill down dale where other cars were stuck without any wheel spin slips or drama

  2. Just amp clamp the motor when running then see if the amps pulled match the KW rating on the motor rating plate.or voltage test at the motor terminals when running, carefully so as not to electrocute yourself

  3. New coolex aluminium radiator with Spal fan. See eBay item no. 401040170864 I used it for a no more than 3miles . Will supply with receipt from coolex bought late last year. Spal fan is way better than all the cheap crap supplied on the market.

    Solve your cooling issues with this top quality rad. Will fit most kit cars.

    Delivery at buyers cost prefer collection

    £180

  4. Had similar when selling my mx5, buyer never saw the car. it went on for 3weeks eventually he sent a transport company to fetch and an uncle came with the cash just before transport company. Paid it in the bank before I'd let the car go

  5. Stainless?! Blimey! Why make a chassis out of stainless, isn't it less ductile and more suspecptable to fracturing? How thick are the tubes (wall thickness I mean)?

    nothing wrong with the strength of a stainless 2b chassis , as I found out when a big Jag rear ended me his car took a fair bit of damage. My car is still on the rd to this day...

  6. I chap called Marcus has one of the hood chassis's on the rd, it is indeed a rare beast concived around the time robin hood went bust in late 06 and the very early days of GBS before the zero. Will make a cool car with the right engine not the lightest but certainly unique...

  7. At 5k run away if it's not correctly registared. You say it's at the top end of your budget IVA and registration is best part 1k and that's assuming it passes and dosent need major work to get it to IVA spec. Sit tight and watch piston heads etc a decent registared car will come up. If you buy it you will be making a very expensive mistake! 5k is way to much for an unregistered 2b
