Is it for the metric or imperial chassis and does it come with a headrest? 😬 BB

There is plenty of poke with a carb'd fireblade donk. Easy to wire in, get a dash blank and just put in the bike clocks with the spedo hidden. Plenty of places to buy flanges to replace the sprocket, a custom 2 piece prop and suitable centre bearing. Don't bother about reverse. Put a push bike speedo in, illuminated by a high output led and thrash the life out of it. Don't believe those that have never even driven one that will tell you how it will never work. It does, and it is a brilliantly bonkers way to enjoy a seven. All the best BB

Don't think that those figures are particularly special. The old saab 9-5 aero engine was 250bhp and mid to high 300's nm. BB

Go-on then. I'll pick 'em up or you can drop them off. BB

I definately have one, yours for postage/gonads Also have the rest of the std exhaust (with a slightly blowing can) that you can have too for gratis, if you want. I'm near Warrignton in the NW. BB Edited by - Badger Bill on 21 Oct 2011 15:53:29

Saw this on another site, anyone want to offer an opinion as to how it might effect the handling? http://www8.wind.ne.jp/firestater/071102_5.jpg http://www8.wind.ne.jp/firestater/071102_6.jpg BB

I can only just see the point. BB

Bol-lieu? BB PS How goes your Vel-Static? Nearly bought a 3.0 V6 Initiale the other day, but the current Mrs BB was not keen on having a 'spare' car cluttering the place up.

I love these, but couldn't find any when I had my 7 BB

you might want to put which model of footpack it is, as they are interchangeable. roofbox.co.uk S60 bar spec Sounds like a good deal anyway, about 1/2 price of new, and unless you have been using them to knock in nails they never really wear out. BB Edited by - Badger Bill on 13 Jun 2011 09:12:12

I was in the very clean Prelude going the other way just before the motorway services. BB

Lovely low miles 5th Gen Prelude. Currently on 37,800 miles. 12 month MOT and 6 months tax from Sat 14th May. 2 previous owners. non-smokers car. All standard, with the sole exception of an aftermarket head unit that takes an aux input. Everything works, nothing leaks. Good points; Like new, Non-smokers car, No rust, No scratches to metalwork (mega light scuff on rear bumper, but you have to get close to see it.) Original complete tool roll, 4 brand spanking new Uniroyal tyres (when I bought it they were 3 different brands and I don't like that), Private plate, Averages around 32/34mpg on my work run. Bad points; There is a small mark (car park ding) at the back of the drivers door. I quite like her but I have been offered first refusal on a lovely SAAB 900 Ruby Edition and need to move quick. I'm near Warrington. 07891 582 413 http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y286/badgerbill/Prelude/IMG_1793.jpg http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y286/badgerbill/Prelude/IMG_1800.jpg http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y286/badgerbill/Prelude/IMG_1816.jpg http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y286/badgerbill/Prelude/IMG_1815.jpg http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y286/badgerbill/Prelude/IMG_1814.jpg http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y286/badgerbill/Prelude/IMG_1799.jpg Lots more pictures here here Edited by - badger bill on 17 May 2011 22:38:35

I love this new aggregated view, I would have missed out on lots of interesting stuff without it. Got any popcron? BB
-
A bigger show stopper is that it has no identity. You would be hard pushed to get it on the road... ...legally. BB

I understand that efficient/better burn advantages are for the Diesel, not especially for the petrol. As for running your racecar on it, if it is set-up to run 95 pump fuel it should be fine. Clearly any response that I give on the matter is solely my opinion, and does not reflect Shell's or anyone else's come to that. Hell, I don't even work in the retail bit! BB
-
Not a rebrand, I understand that Euro 95 fuelsave has a new and unique friction reducer, that works particurlarly when the engine is cold and oil is not moving freely, reducing energy loss during the cold cycle. There are a few more cleaning components that are different to the old 95 stuff too. I must admit, 1 litre per tank is not going to set the world on fire, but the independently tested cleaning properties of the fuel has been well researched and for my money is worth it. Especially when my 2 Shell stations are as cheap as the local supermarkets. BB PS I currently do have an affiliation to the company in question, but not for much longer ☹️

Fella, I ran a Passat with the same engine for 2 yrs and averaged 42-ish, but drove it like the company car that it was, i.e. badly. Would have thought that a golf would have been an easy match for that, and probably a bit more. 45mpg at least... BB
-
Good point, not 100% on what mine were apart from being on 13" Anthracites 6"'s and 8"'s. Must have been 185 x 60 and 205 x 60, although they look a bit bigger than that on my pics. http://s7.photobucket.com/albums/y286/badgerbill/seven/?action=view¤t=driverside.jpg BB

Ran 21's on my car for 10k. They wore well on roads and had nice progressive grip levels. Never felt bouncy, possibly due to being a bit lighter than the 888's? Although don't quote me on that. BB

Reason for asking is this website car parts connexion Get most of my SAAB stuff from there. Often bargains to be had. BB

what age is the Astra BB
