  1. Dan, Once I finish my car I was thinking of asking the kit bag making advertised somewhere on the forum to make a tri-angle storage bag to go onto the boot behind roll cage for camping gear. Alternatively I do like some of the tear drop caravans. See you at the show on Saturday. Regards Mark
  2. I bet he will have a pack lunch and not school dinners, poor kid will have to live with the name.

    Keith, Same answers as above don't under estimate the fun, pain and satisfaction of building your own Zero to you spec's. Every single one is different that's the unique selling point of this forum and car. No competition to me Zero! OK I wanted a 2B but timing wasn't right. Best of luck. Regards Mark
  4. Graham, In daily life I give generously to a lot of charities £1 here and £1 there including £10 to Air ambulance during last few shows, then as a member of the British legion I donate £100 a year (ex-forces) and we have a business charity of the year which I support with many events. So my concious is clear, but in defence of others we are chased, encourage or advertised every day of our lives by charities and I assume some have priorities/commitments to others. Then on a personal note my mum has been diagnosed with MS so another charity I contribute to on a regular basis to a point where I can not always afford parts for my kit. I agree it is a poor show but understandable - please look from both sides. Regards Mark PS. My business and I have contributed to Andi's raffle in Stafford
  5. Almost the same as Nick but i use good old fashion gunk and left it to soak then jet wash. Took a few goes. Regards Mark PS. the grass is still dead from last year wife not impressed.

    Log Book

    Same as Nick. But... be warned my brother in law has just been fined because he could not prove the vehicle was destroyed i.e. Destruction certificate issue by a reputable End of life vehicle business and not informing DVLA. Regards Mark
  10. I had to cut my bolts to fit don't make the same mistake as me wrecking the nyloc (too much heat and technically should only be used once)use a dummy nut first to protect the nyloc and clean the thread when cutting. Regards Mark
  11. Dave, Welcome I am building a yellow zero at present although work has been extremely busy and its been a while since I ventured into the garage. If you join you can access the map to see members in your area tea and biscuits is normally enough to bribe/get help with any problems. Or all questions answered here.Best of luck. Regards Mark
  12. I would like to see one in the flesh.
  13. Well John and Nick, You motivated me to get back into the garage and attempt the back panel unfortunately only had time to mark, drill and file edges on top strip before she who must be obeyed wanted a stay gate fitted, then dinner. Well it will have to wait until next weekend. Regards Mark
  14. You make it look so easy I am dredding this job wished I selected ali instead of stainless. Looks really good. Regards Mark
  15. I agree with Daz sounds like charging not sure how the jenvey and emerald is set up but on a normal engine set up I would consider disconnecting the alternator electrics and see if it still happens. Regards Mark

  21. Looks good grey matter now thinking what if I used the same colour as the seats with yellow piping or can you get a stainless coloured trim to match panels. Another thing to add to the 'things to do list'. Regards Mark

    Chat Room

    Matt moo - I used the chat room yesterday first time I have visited and actually used it to talk to someone. Normally I all alone sniff, sniff however it was good but I had a constant clicking sound is this normal (similar to the noise when you click a mouse button)? What about a web cam feature then we can se each other and show our cars if we had a problem/fault etc. Regards Mark PS. not that I get much time to get on the PC.
  24. Marty, Looks good so far we are almost at the same stage of the build. Unfortunately with work commitments I have not ben in the garage for 2 weeks. Keep te picture coming. Regards Mark
  25. Keep as is. I originally wanted a 2b but due to work, family and cash flow it was not really possible. When that all settled down I reviewed my options and stuck with RH and selected the Zero for no other reason than it was the latest model. I still review all topics new and old as previously stated most of the car is the same. Also there is a lot of experience on this forum with valuable information. Pat on the back to all you make this a great forum not only the car........ Mark
