Hi, has anyone had experience with solar powered trickle chargers? If they work, would seem a good alternative. If not, any recommendations? Thanks. Gav

Hi, I’ve spoken to Andy at Powerspeed about a 4-in2-1 exhaust for my K series. There have been previous bulk buy discounts, so he will do a deal if there’s interest. Anyone else out there looking to upgrade/replace? If there is I’ll get quote and post. (Note; I may not be on line till later tomorrow).

I'm looking at changing the standard Avon zz1 185 6014. I'm running on minilite wheels. I know there's lots of views and I've read a lot on here, so would the Yokohama be a good choice for road use and touring? Gav

I fitted a rad protector mesh behind the '7' grille. About £30 fron CC. I colour coded the 7 to contrast, like a lot of owners.
-
Interested to hear the above. I've been looking at fitting same to my K S3. Can anyone advise on any tuning alterations that will be required. Cheers.
-
Am I the only one out today? Didn't see anyone. Out for 3 hours doing the Warwickshire and Worcestershire lanes and byways! B-ham to Startford, to Evesham, back via Tanworth in Arden. More than a a bit slippy, but made for fun driving down the single track lanes. Still got some full throttle on the A 435 on the way back though. Dirtiest K7 has ever being!!! Happy New Year.

I always kept forgeting my indicators where on. Had a couple of angry exchanges after near misses!!! I fitted a sounder, with a dely so it only sounds if you foget. Works a treat. Fitted in a few minutes. Cost £15.00 off Ebay. Gav

Exmog, I do run the car and will give it a drag up and down our road. They never grit and salt. It's more about preserving the fuel and preventing emulsion and gum.
-
Hi, can anyone advise on fuel addatives for winter storage. My bikers mates add a fuel sabiliser to prevent oxidisation of the fuel which can cause gums to clog the injectors and lines. On older cars and bikes it also helps to presrve the tanks and liners. My mate ended up stripping his Bonnie to cure the problem when left last year whilst in Aussie.

Spotted on A38 by Chatueau Impney, Droitwich. Dark blue or Green. Had my shades on and the good Lady C was a sleep, so no one to confirm. Yes that's correct, she does snooze regularly during the blats!!!

Green with yellow bonnet stipe and nose band. Spotted by the Ladybird Pub, in Bromsgrove Worcs. We where in the Yellow K7GAV, coming oposite direction.
-
Thank again to everyone. I'll take the advice and keep pushing this one nearer to the limit for a while. Just got back from a fabulous 150 mile blat around the Cotswolds and Warwickshire.
-
Thanks again to all. I will add that, although I have not taken this car on a track, I have done track days with tuition in Caterhams, VX220, Race Clio. Proper timed laps, 360 spins, and not just 'drive a car for the day'. I'm not a profficient driver but I am reasonably conifdent, (yes I know, it can be dangerous!).
-
So, if I look to change the tyres, what should I look at to fit the existing 13" minilites?
-
*smile*Thank to all, for the advice and pointers. Lots to think about. So, change the Avons and get the car set up to max as it is to start with?
