Had a search but couldn't find an answer so... What would people consider the maximum safe weight to hold in the boot of a seven? 20kg? 25kg? If spread and not point-loaded? Car is a 2008 metric chassis Roadsport if that makes any difference (just in case the superlights had paper thin boot linings). I need to transport my pile of gold bars incognito. 😉

I will admit I don't know whether an imperial roll bar will fit a metric car. PM me a price and location and I'll have a think.

Mine is a 99.9% road car, I just fancy a track day after two years of ownership. I really don't want a full cage for road only use, for numerous reasons including seat access, never intend removing the windscreen and minor worries about my un-helmeted head rattling off the cage as I'm 6'2" and don't have a lowered floor (yet). I have a friend who races MX5s who can get me a rollbar made; what spec do I need to comply with for club track days?

I've failed to spot any that have come up for sale over the last six months early enough as they sell quickly, so let's see if a wanted and will work. I'm after anything that will swap out for my standard roll bar to allow me onto the club track days.

Hi Stu. Did you ever find these? I had forgotten about it until today.

Yes, Autoglass last summer via Adrian Flux insurance. They went to Caterham and bought a full screen and surround as obviously Caterham themselves won't sell official glass-only. The only hitch was they were insistent I went to Southampton not Poole as they had an experienced guy there who would fit it. So I drove the C7 instead of the estate car...then they just handed it to me and looked nonplussed when I asked about the fit. But seen as I had preferred to fit it myself in the first place, I just swapped it out there and then having done a few screen swaps before, took about 15 minutes.

Perfect, thanks for that!

In a couple of weeks the planets look like they might align and I may be able to take the C7 up to Argyll, Scotland whilst working up there for a couple of weeks. I used to live in Glasgow so I know many of the roads in the area but I am looking for suggestions for up to 200 ish mile routes for the few days off I might get whilst I'm up there. I'm looking for driving experiences not slow roads to good views. So far I have two in mind: Arrochar - Crianlarich (love this road if you get a clear run) - Fort William - Spean Bridge - Laggan - Pitlochry (anything better than the boring A9 for this bit?) - Killin - Aberfoyle - Faslane - Arrochar (also love this road along Loch Long, proper rally special stage). Inverary - Dalmally - Oban - Lochgilphead (another favorite road) - Inverary (used to do this loop in my old hot hatch when I was younger) Questions: I've never been south of Lochgilphead; do the roads go to singletrack? Worth a drive to Cambeltown? Anything worth driving south of Greenock if I get the ferry across from Dunoon? I don't know the area to the east of a Glasgow-Callander north-south line; any bucket list roads around there without going all the way across to Perth etc?

Stu, that would be ace, thank you!

I am on the search for a pair of rear light glass covers that (centre to outside) are red-red-clear. I have the JAL LED rear lights and currently have the clear-red-clear glass that comes with them (like the picture below), but I dislike how pink the LED brake lights are. I still have the original light glass in the parts box but I found it impossible to separate to get the red brake-light side apart, and don't want to go back to the yellow indicator glass by using the whole original glass unit. Has anybody seen a red-red-clear glass I can buy off-the-shelf?

Either new or used (possibly even scruffy used ones if very cheap!). Anything considered. What have you got?

I have a black frame with some cracked glass in it. However, probably of no help to you as it's in Dorset and I'm not back there until after Easter. Let me know if you don't find anything else and maybe we can work something out.

I've got a black S3 screen in which the glass is broken (I went down the insurance replacement and they did me an entire screen. If you don't find a complete one and mine is any use to you drop me a message. It's in Dorset but I could post as they can't do anything worse to the glass!

I will have an S3 one available once I switch it out for my other one just repainted. Separate & logo and mesh pieces (from memory).

Perfect. Thanks for that.
