  1. Probably a dumb question, but why are the Vauxhall SOHC engines fitted with the sump foam baffle when engines such as Ford Crossflows are not?
  2. Hi All, Can anyone confirm the above engines are fitted with a sump baffle in the form of a "foam pad". (The Workshop Manual I have refers to a sump baffle but is not specific on its type). Also, if a foam baffle is fitted are there any opinions out there whether it is actually needed. If such a baffle is present, I am wary of it deteriorating and sections becoming detached causing oil way blockages and other mayhem. (The car use is mainly for touring and blats, rather than any racing or trackdays). I understand some K Series engines may be fitted with foam sump baffles,so I guess any thoughts on their need/suitability would be relevant. Thanks, Ian
  3. I think originally "Super 7 Sprint" was fitted to the 1600 Sprint and "1700 Super Sprint" was fitted to,surprisingly, to the 1700 Supersprint.
  4. Thanks for the suggestions re Sevens and Classics. Their cars seem to be live axles. Also I was hoping for a private sale. (Incidentally, I would recommend S&C as a dealer to anyone, I have dealt with them in the past and they were excellent)
  5. Wanted 1700 Supersprint 5 speed dedion (May consider live axle). Prefer standard factory spec car, but anything considered.

    Club watch

    Does anyone know what he price of these watches were when sold through The Club?
  7. I have wide feet and got a pair of Lonsdale Trainers (Benn Model, I think). Fit me well as my normal size which is 10. Got them from Sports Direct, cheap. They are slip on.
  8. I was wondering if it would be possible to view your car late Sunday afternoon. (Subject to it being in a lit garage). I am travelling home to Durham from London, so maybe able to detour for a look. What is your address and tel no? Regards, Ian
  9. K7 NRH For Sale. Currently on retention, so available for immediate transfer. Offers over £300
  10. All things considered I think it was much better to have separate “For Sale” and “Wanted” Sections. More User Friendly, easier to navigate etc. I think we should revert to the previous separate sections.

    Cyprus

    Parked in Girne near Tim’s Cafe. Yellow Seven. Intrigued to know if this is a visitor or a resident on the island. Only the second sighting I have had out here, spotted one a couple of years ago, also yellow so perhaps the same one?
  12. Yes - it's JW one.I bought mine from him some years ago but not sure if still available new.
  13. As Rich, I have one in the garage but not sure of fitment. It came from a 1992 DeDion Car with an FIA Bar. If Rich's bar is not suitable, give me a ring 07979957740. Regards, Ian
  14. A pair of Hormann Up and Over Garage Doors. 7ft x 7ft. Aluminium doors with Decograin Golden Oak external finish in black frames. Remotely electrically operated. Doors are excellent quality and in as new condition having been fitted for less than a year. I am replacing the pair with a single large door.

  15. Also should have put in the Ad the car is a 1.6
  16. Hi, Sorry for the late reply. Not sure what is the official name of the colour, but I would describe it as powder or duck egg blue. (It's my Wife's car and she's called Bluebell - the car not my wife!) If you send me your EMail Address I will send you some photos. Regards, Ian

  18. Looking at Caterham website one of the clutch Cables is indeed part no 74515.
  19. Thanks for the further info , Ian
  20. Hi Stu and Rog, I think the Cables are from VX and Crossflow. Looks like from Ian's comments above they are not from a K Series. Regards, Ian
  21. Hi, As you have seen I am advertising throttle and clutch cables on Blatchat. The Ad stated these were from an HPC or Crossflow. One or more of these may actually by for a K Series, as I had a Supersport a few years ago, and the cables were from the depths of the garage, so I'm not quite sure what they do actually fit. If you send me your EMail address I can send you some pics of the cables and you can see if they would be of any use to you. Regards, Ian
