NIP! Yes I got one a couple of weeks ago in Leicester, I could see the yellow cameras and white speed markers a few hundred yards away and thought mmmmm 30 mph limit. I was just over and so decided to touch my brakes well before the white markers and straight away another camera went off that works off 2 very thin hardly noticeable strips across the road (as i said earlier, well before the white speed markers). Anyway I got booked for 36mph, BUT, I have been given the option of paying £60 without the 3 points, as long as I attend a speed awareness course, so not so bad. Regarding speed control, I have heard that in Europe, (possibly parts of Spain) that when you get clocked by a speeding device it will change the very next set of traffic lights to red and make you wait. You dont get penalised apart from a) Being even later for work than before. Having a long queue of angry late motorists behind you. I think that would work a treat, but some do say that here in the UK that they like extra revenue. Dont know how true that is?????????

What are the pro`s and cons in general with the 2b 2L pinto handling? Are they pretty good at handling the corners etc on a dryish day (without 1000`s of pounds mods) or as a local anti kit car subaru mechanic states "organ grinders" Andi

Thanx

Sorry here`s the picture

Hi all, Got my Robin last week and ended up towing it home due to rad hose falling off. Then when I got home I jacked it up to refit a hose. Anyway today I went out for a play and noticed when i got back both shocks were hanging off. I suspect this is something to do with one of my above actions, but should they come off that easy??? More to the point how do i get them back on? I am new to mechanics so will probably be asking a lot of dumb sounding questions, but I really want to do this hoody thing so I need to start somewhere.

Just off Uppingham Road (lots of damn ramps)

Thanks all for the advice. I will be joining the club and will go to the next Leicester meet. Cheers

Hi all, We pick up our hood 2b this Friday. Complete novices so we are a little stuck with certain issues such as Where can I buy a tonneau cover from? and how much? as our car has no windscreen and so no weather gear. Regards Clare and Andi
