NOW SOLD S3 classic chrome heated windscreen including stanchions frame and fixings for sale. The glass in very good nick, the car having done 3k miles. No cracks. A couple of tiny, and I mean pin prick, dinks in the glass but barely noticeable and fine for an MOT. The frame has a few scuffs but just from normal use. Collect only from CB23. £180. NOW SOLD. 

Pair of Red grp front cycle wings. Drilled, some cracks and stars. IVA strip. Useable but not perfect. Only 3 K miles. Free to a good home. GONE. 

NOW FOUND NEW HOME S3 Sigma catalyst heat shield. Originally chrome but covered in Carbon effect. Good condition. Free to a good home. NOW FOUND NEW HOME. 

Don't forget, if you buy ths you could sell your current engine to offset the cost and have a very cheap excellent set up. 

Might be.. Couldn't possibly say...     Might be a engine for sale with circa 155bhp. Might not. Who knows? It's all man maths at the moment, 

This is by way of a test the water but I may well have my 140 Sigma engine up for sale shortly. Originally this was a 125 bhp engine fitted in 2015 to an S3 roadsport, but was upgraded by Caterham to 140 Supersport spec with new cams, ECU and air box at 2646 miles in August 2016. Since then it has done an additional 1000 miles so currently has approximately 3500 miles. 

This will include the ECU, all major ancillaries and will basically be a drop it in and go option. There may even be an option to have it fitted by a well known company at a small additional cost. 

So, I am looking to gauge interest in this at a price of £2500. 

Just had a phone conversation with Stuart at Premier Power. Top bloke. Couple of very interesting options; I just need to do the man maths and convince SWMBO. Apparently one way round it is if Stuart doesn't put the stickers on..she'll never know! So tempting!!! 

Does have some useful bits in it... Oil types, plugs, jacking points, fuse positions etc which can be difficult to find quickly elsewhere. I would recommend it but then my mechanical know how could be summarised on a post it note. 

Thanks OiliW,

the piggy bank is looking decidedly vulnerable!

Posts like this about PP are going to cost me thousands! I've been mulling over this exact upgrade for some time and everything I read is really positive. What engine do you run at the moment OliW and how does the F175 compare? 

Andy. 

In readiness for the glorious blatting weather soon due, ( cough) I am looking for a pair of wind deflectors please. 

Thanks, Andy

Hi Jonthan,

It included taking the tyres off but not Re fitting etc. 

Hi Toughie,

With the VAT it worked out at £61:20 per wheel: that is for a full refurbishment and powder coat in Anthracite. The straightening was actually £36 per wheel including the VAT. My bad. 

As promised I have now got the wheels back from Wheel Genie and I'm very impressed. The powder coating is excellent. Two of the 5 needed straightening and that was £30 extra per wheel. All round a good job and worth recommending. Keith is a top bloke who clearly loves all things car. 

Andy. 

4 x Yoko Advan AD08 tyres size 195/50 R15 in very good condition. Some track use. No cuts or cord exposed. Over 4mm tread all round. Perfect for track days. Collect from Papworth near Huntingdon Cambs. Ps I have no idea why the pictures are always upside down.? 

Taking up space in my garage and annoying SWMBO, so free to anyone who wants them before they go to the tyre depot.

Has Blatchat finally failed? Is no one able to help? 

I've searched high and low for the answer to this one with little luck. What is the difference between sport or R spec and Roadsport or S spec suspension? As far as I can tell it is a rear ARB, adjustable ride height collars and wide track wish bones. Is there no difference to dampers or spring rates as seems to be the case? 

The reason I ask is I have upgraded my roadsport with an ARB and adjustable collars already and had looked at the sports suspension upgrade as the next step and its seems I have most of it already. If that is indeed the case, is it worth going wide track for predominantly road use? 

Thanks. 

Andy

I not looking to sell but bepending on your budget may have a few ideas. 

How much is your budget? 

Thanks everyone for the recommendations. I've gone with wheel genie in Huntingdon as they are more local and along with Mark several other friends recommended them. I took the wheels today and the guy running it seems very friendly and knowledgable about cars. I will report back in a week when they are all done.

Does anyone have any experience of ACE Finish wheel refurb in Godmanchester nr Huntingdon Cambs or can recommend anyone else to refurb and powder coat some 15 inch ten spokes for me please in the Cambs area? 

Thank you

Andy. 

Hi Aristocat,
