Oakleaf Posted November 3, 2003 Share Posted November 3, 2003 For the bonnet catch mechanism and the petrol filler cap, try Readline Components Ltd. http://www.redlinecomponents.co.uk/ Best from Patrik S43075GT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mal Posted November 3, 2003 Author Share Posted November 3, 2003 Thanks Patrik I will do that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul w Posted November 3, 2003 Share Posted November 3, 2003 I can't help with the bonnet catch as I assume you are not talking about the generic rubber catches but rather the metal fitting under the bonnet and on the scuttle. However, I have seen the filler caps on http://www.holden.co.uk <http://www.holden.co.uk> they appear to be the same as those used on the Morgans.

paul w Posted November 3, 2003 Share Posted November 3, 2003 Shame you are on the other side of the world as I have some Lotus brand alloys I am looking to offload, not quite what you are looking for but even nicer IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpringle Posted November 3, 2003 Share Posted November 3, 2003 Bonnet catch was just a Lotus part, petrol filler cap from Elan S4, Mick or John at Redline are very helpfull with S4 Sevens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oakleaf Posted November 4, 2003 Share Posted November 4, 2003 Dear John Pringle, I have seens your car in one of the books on Sevens. I have a few questions regarding racing an S4. Any possibility of emailing you off the list? My email is: eklof@email.com Looking forward to hear from you. PPE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S4 SuZI Posted November 5, 2003 Share Posted November 5, 2003 Plus europa front suspension is the same as an S4 so they have alsorts of bits to fit a 7 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul w Posted November 5, 2003 Share Posted November 5, 2003 I love Banks-Europa! If I can ever afford to visit England I am going to visit them and stay untill they have me forcibly ejected. A Europa is definately top of my list of 'cars I would like to own and have a reasonable chance of doing so before I die'. I wonder if that wide-track Europa suspension would be suitable for the S4........................ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
