Closing down sale

Recommended Posts

Following the demise of my se7en - and the associated three line whip from The Powers That Be that I will never have another one - I am having a clearout. All items were purchased for use on an EU2 K engined series 3 fitted with an Imperial single diagonal FIA bar.

 

All items are exclusive of postage costs. I live in Droitwich Spa, just north of Worcester and within easy reach of junctions 5 or 6 of the M5.

 

 

Tyre rack: £100

Purchased from a club member who was part of the original bulk buy (and who then moved on to a trailer for his track day antics), this is an item I have never used. The rack is in pristine condition.

 

 

RH sidescreen - New: £100

Another "purchased but not fitted", this is £140 from Caterham. I have never unwrapped the item, but will do so if requested. Image of label to confirm part number.

 

 

Pair of wind deflectors: £30 Used but in fair condition, with some small scratches and one small chip. These are £80 new from Caterham.

 

 

Set of four used blue fuel injectors: £25 Purchased from a club member in March 2013 but (you guessed it) never fitted to my car. Have number 0280 156 024 on them.

 

 

Unopened 1L of Castrol B373 diff oil: £5 Purchased for the LSD I never got to fit....there's a pattern here, isn't there?

 

 

 

As a consequence of my inexpert attempt at chasing down a misfire (eventually found to be an intermittent fault in the throttle position sensor sub-loom) I have a few sparky bits:

 

 

Used SLD100080 throttle potentiometer: £45 As shown here, these are £96 and show as out of stock at Caterham.

 

 

Used crank position sensor: £15 As shown here.

 

 

Used in-tank fuel pump: £30 As shown here.

Was removed and swapped for a new unit a couple of years ago when I inciorrectly suspected that fuel problems were causing my misfire. Has number 6443327 on side.

 

 

 

Emerald ECU: £450

I bought the unit via ebay in November 2008 and sent it back to Emerald for check-over and upgrade to K3 spec (from M3KD) in January 2009. It has languished in the darkness of my garage since then. The ebay purchase was £510 and the upgrade £70. I see that Emerald now charge £180 for the K3 upgrade! Front Connector

 

Unit will be supplied with the Emerald recommended serial to USB adapter and link cable.

 

Retro Ford are selling these units at just under £700.

Sold to Sim

 

Oxted boot bag: £80

Complete with removable carrying handle and built-in steel anti-theft chain, which allows you to padlock the bag to the roll bar - or anything else that takes your fancy. Image. Here is an ebay link to a new sale as I do not have an image of the bag on my car.

Sold to StuB

 

4 x 13" anthracite minilites with as-new Yokohama A021R tyres in 70 profile: £300

Silver KN minilites were purchased from a club member and then powder coated. Wheels without tyres and with the tyres fitted.

 

All four wheels are marked as KN 6J x 13.

 

The tyres are Yokohama A021R in 185/70R13, with a speed rating of 86 and a weight rating of H.

 

Please note that the yellow rim is merely a sticker, which can be removed if the new owner prefers. The tyres are in "as new" condition with the production bobbles" present on all four wheels. The wheels and tyres only have a very quick run around the block on them in order to check that the wheels were straight and that the tyres were properly mounted. They then went back in the garage, pending me altering my bike speedo config to run off a magnet on the brake disk, rather than adding a magnet to the wheels (as was the case with my original set of wheels) - another job I never got round to doing!

Sold to TomB

 

Unused clutch cable: £15 - item on left of pic. These are £26 from Caterham.

Sold to _Benedict_

 

Unused throttle cable: £25 - item on right of pic. These are £57 and show as out of stock at Caterham.

Sold to bosshog

 

Used clutch cable: £5 Purchased as an emergency spare but never used, this item does have some cosmetic surface rust on the threads.

Sold to bosshog

 

New and unused HT leads and distributor cap: £10 As shown here and here.

Sold to 3rd time lucky?

 

Used tonneau: £20

As fitted to my car, which I believe had poppers in the standard places.

Sold to AdamQ

 

Mintex MDB1287 rear brake pads: £5 For use as standard rears.

Sold to AdamQ

 

Shower cap: £25

The material and stitching of the shower cap itself is of good quality. However, I could never get it to fit properly on my standard S3 and all four of the elastic fasteners broke at one point or another. My wife has extended the front two loops so that they properly fit over the bonnet catches, whilst the two rear fasteners are two elastic loops, used to loop over the ends of my cut off spare tyre carrier. To secure this hood on a car with a complete spare carrier - or indeed a clean rear end - then you will need to attach hooks to the two rear elastic loops. It doesn't take a great picture when you haven't got a car to stick it on.

Sold to Cookie Monster

 

Used JZX2963 throttle potentiometer: £25 As shown here and here.

Sold to Regin

 

7 Grille: £25 Item is in good condition. These are £43 from Caterham.

Sold to Arno

 

Hood bag: £25 Item is in good condition.

Sold to Born2Run

 

New and unfitted tonneau and fastener pack: £100

Yet another "purchased but not fitted" item, this is £138 from Caterham. Supplied with unopened fastener pack.

Sold to Tazio!

 

Unopened 5L of Comma G30 coolant concentrate: £15 As on left.

Sold to Tazio!

 

Unopened 5L of Comma 5W-50 oil: £15 As on right.

Sold to Tazio!

Where abouts are you? Im very interested in the wheel/tyres but they could be tricky to transport up to Manchester. The best price for those tyres from George Polley is £75 each, so 300 for new tyres and freshly coated wheels is pretty attractive!

 

Im not in any mad rush, so Id be happy to wait to see if a GONADS could be set up.

Looks like the boot bag goes to "Lightnin' Fingers Forshaw", then *tongue*

 

Sim, drop me a blatmail with your name and postal address in order to progress your purchase.

 

Tom, as the original post states, "I live in Droitwich Spa, just north of Worcester". If you want the wheels and tyres then if you pay for them I would be happy to store them for a month if you want to try and arrange a GONADS run. Following my 7-killing accident I am still not particularly mobile and so don't want to get involved in too much mucking about.

 

Ben - noted *thumbup*

Would you mind posting this:

 

Used JZX2963 throttle potentiometer: £25 As shown here and here.

 

To Denmark? - at my cost of course.

 

I can send pictures of HM in an envelope at my risk, do a bank transfer directly into your account or use PayScam - whatever you want.

Phil,

 

Shower cap is yours, but the HT leads have already been nabbed.

 

Tim,

 

Tom has provisionally agreed to take the wheels. If he passes then someone else has already taken first reserve, but will note your interest.
