  1. What's the difference between S type and Pre S type and when did they change? My car is 96 and the seat panels on the back are horizontal rather than vertical so I'm guessing that they are S3? Are the seats interchangeable? Are the headrests the same?
  2. I'd like this please (posted). PM sent Kind regards, Neil
  3. I also don't have a spare wheel. AirMan ResQ Emergency Tyre Repair Kit, with easy valve through punture repair tyre selant, Air Compressor. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00BP5E7KI/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
  4. Arch did mine last year. Excellent service. Dropped the car off, walked into town for breakfast, bit of a wander. Phone call and walked back to collect car and have a factory tour. About 3½ hours in all.
  5. Many thanks to: club/users/jonathan-kay club/users/felixgogo club/users/7sw For all the information. I have one (I hope) final question. I asked Caterham if their aero cap was a direct replacement for my car. They replied that it was but their part only has 2 pipes connected but my car has 3! Anyone know how this works? FUEL FILLER CAP SILVER AERO INJECTION CARS (30T066A) Your question: Is this a direct replacement for my black plastic Rover part on my 1996 K series Supersport? Answer: Hello Neil, you will be able to fit this filler assembly in place of your existing one but you will need to drill new holes for the mounting of the new flange. The new flange will cover the existing holes on the current cap so they will not be visible.
  6. Thanks all for the advice and information.
  7. I have a 1996 1.6 K series Super Sport with the unattractive black plastic (Metro?) fuel filler cap. I'd like to replace it with an aero type. Caterham sell one at £165.70 plus £10 postage, what I find very annoying is they then add 20% VAT to the postage! (postage doesn't attract VAT) A total of £177.70. I only need the cap and gasket part, not the whole assembly which I already have. Has anyone sourced a suitable cap, locking or non locking is fine?
  8. They are for SV not S3.

  19. It maybe (if you are lucky) that the crack is just in the powder coating or paint finish. Can you remove the bolt and check the inside surface of the mounting hole?
  20. I don't know what regulation makes bonnet mounted number plates illegal, maybe they should be mounted verticaly? Mines been like this for about 9 years and never had any issues at MOT times.

    30mm socket

    Having had mini coopers for 50+ years my toolkit is AF biased! I have plenty of metric spanners but sockets are a bit limited. I need a 30mm socket to fix a friends shower unit. Is there a need for a 30mm socket on a 1996 K series engine? If so happy to buy one, only £6 If not I'll try to borrow one.
