Hi Having a bit of a garage clear out and I have a Half Hood Plus in Blue for an SV that I no longer need (I sold the car 2yrs ago). The 'Plus' has the rear cover that can be zipped to the main hood when parked, to stop water getting into the boot. These are great pieces of kit, as any search on the forum will confirm. Comes with the hood bag that lets you fix it to the roll bar. £160 + P&P (cost £320 new).

Blue with clamshells and yellow 'Caterham' logo on sills. I was in the black mx5 that you followed. Your reversing light was permanently on, by the way. Cheers Mark

Aha - that'll be John Aston, out and about!

Cheeky BTTT before it gets posted online at the weekend.

Hi Having recently sold my Caterham SV, I now need to turn my attention to selling my Honda VFR750; before I stick it on a well known auction site, I thought I’d see if there are any bikers out there who might be interested. The bike is the FV model – arguable the best and most sought after and a far better bike than the 800i that replaced it. It’s incredibly versatile and will tour, scratch or commute as required. The bike is in near as mint condition as you will get– typically top class Honda paint finish and only the odd minor stone chop – no dings or scrapes. The exhaust is the original Honda item and again, in excellent condition. It has had two owners prior to me purchasing the bike last October. The bike was produced in 1997 and in that time has only covered just under 19,000 miles (I’m still using it occasionally, so it may go up very slightly) and has a full service history, plus MoT certificate until April 2013. It was serviced in May 2012 and I have receipts from all MoTs, services etc. from new, as well as the original Owner’s Handbook and service booklet. The bike comes with both sets of keys, fitted alarm, Givi mono rack and top box. It also has the optional seat cowl, headlight protectors, grab bars, fender extender and had new tyres fitted about 1500 miles ago (Michelin Road Pilot 3). I ride very gently, so there is very little wear. I’m only selling it as I’ve bought another bike and with a house move on the way, it has to go. Happy to post pictures if anyone is interested – Looking for £1995 ono. Please blatmail me if you have any questions. Cheers Mark Edited by - Mark Adderley on 1 Aug 2012 18:58:57

Chris That's fine. I've sent you payment details via blatmail. Cheers Mark Edited by - Mark Adderley on 17 Jul 2012 21:40:20

Hi It's for leather seats on an SV. Postage would be circa £8 I think. Cheers Mark

In blue - to match my beloved but alas now sold Viper Blue Caterham SV. Comes complete with straps and 'apron' that zips to the normal hood, so that it is completely watertight when parked in the rain. Has faded in a couple of places about the size of a palm - can email photos on request. I paid just under £400 for this when I bought it 2.5yrs ago - looking for £200 + P&P. Thanks Mark

As described, SBFS draught reducer in excellent condition to fit SV models. Costs £100 new - looking for £70 + P&P. Thanks Mark Edited by - Mark Adderley on 17 Jul 2012 13:32:09

She passed! Next step is to tax her next Saturday and we're up and running! Was great batting to the MOTstation via the 'long route' this morning! 😬 You up north any time soon, Ian? Cheers Mark

Just read this from a search on fog lights, as I have an MOT in an hour and mine wasn't working Saw the post re the main beam cutting out the fog light and YES!! Putting it on main beam does switch it off! Stress over - thanks!! Mark

Wearing a helmet for walking? Is Thirsk really that dodgy? Mark

Hi Jed It was! Had 'cabin fever' so decided on a run up to Chop Gate to blow away the cobwebs! I'd not driven the 7 for a few weeks - you forget how quick and nimble they are. 😬 Hopefully see you next Mon at Lealholm. Cheers Mark

Spotted heading into Helmsley Saturday afternoon (just before Sproxton). Did you get an ice cream? Mark

Cheers David At Mr Doughty's house trying to solve the problem - will try your sugestions!
