  1. The lazy mans solution ..... order both 41mm and 42mm using Amazon Prime next day delivery and return the one that doesn't fit *wink*

    Mine measured 41mm for the two 2018 cars I've owned

     

  2.  did mention the problem but was told it was the first time they had heard of it.

     

    By complete contrast when I picked up my first Caterham a few years back I was warned of the problem and at the time was given a Racing Cap foc!

  3. Pedal position looks pretty standard to me. Size 10 feet, drive in plimsoles. Tuck foot under clutch peddle and as mentioned above lowered floor makes this much easier regardless of S3 or S5 chassis.

  4. Sorry I can't recall the actual car I had that time (I've been loaned a number of cars over the past 3 1/2 years, never the same one), however I don't think the damage in the car I drove was as extensive an area as your example, judging by your pictures, 

  5. Anyone elses heated screen got this in the corners

     

    A car I borrowed last year from Gatwick, when mine was in for a service, had the same "damage". 

     

    That glass effect looks very similar to when I accidentally ruined/delaminated some glass on my french doors using a pressure washer with the wrong nozzle (high pressure) attached. *yikes* 

  6. I've recently changed the oil twice in the last few months in my Sierra lsd diff.  The original oil was mineral based (make unknown).

    I first tried Motul synthetic (the Caterham endorsed one) and then tried RTT mineral based oil.
    I'm convinced the diff runs more smoother/quieter with the RRToil than the Motul stuff but then I don't have significant whine with my diff.

     

  7. In light of this thread, plus it being more appealing than cleaning my tin top this afternoon *smile*I decided to swap to my Momo Mod27 270mm (only if temporarily) as I haven't tried it in this car to date and thought it and I deserved another chance.

    In case anyone's interested, my rough measurements show an extra 25mm "thigh/leg" clearance available using a "flat" over a standard round 270mm wheel.
