Green Beastie 453R

I did get email

Hola , Buenos Dias Steve

Ta

Nice.....

Do you have a link. I could not see the Pro version, just one for £28 with a 2T lifting capacity. I guess we need a low profile version for a low car . TIA

wow... I like buying direct. I think this will do the job and is low profile, load capacity is 0.8 Te

Found this... just a bit worried about the support plinth Alca Germany Ultra Compact Quality Car Scissor Jack 0.8 Tonne Ton Vehicle Emergency Lifting Tool : Amazon.co.uk: Automotive Alloy Jack

Funnily enough I was just thinking of the same thing. I have just added a wheel nut socket and 0-100NM torque wrench to my boot collection. Also interested in the VW jack

Thanks that is interesting. It actually failed its VOSA SVR first time round allegedly because of a speedo calibration problem. I will, try and caprure video...

John that is great and your blog is informative. I think I will find a way to capture video and take it back to dealer.Possibly easy stuff like earths first. Thanks for the PM opportunity.

Yup... trying to work out how to video safely, I guess I take a passenger with a camera. Interesting about the reluctor ring. I had forgotten about that.

Thanks, I was thinking of going that way...

Cheers for the heads up

was having a few problems with the gauges on a new 420R firstly rev counter, going off dial and now speedo flicking. I guess as VDO gauges they are all stepper motor. Unfortunately I could not replicated fault at dealer. They also said they could not do a diagnostic, which I found as odd. while speaking to a fellow owner at Brands last week, they said there is a plug loosely strapped to the steering column which I found. I decided to do some more research and found this. OBD It looks like access is blocked. Any idea of path forward ? I understand that Luke Stevens can access maps for his rolling road work and he is local to me.

Sensible offers for the set, would let individual plates go for a reasonable price. Currently on ebay, but would happy for them to go individually. Ideal for an enthusiast with a fleet of 3 cars. All plates on retention. PM me if interested
