  1. Think it is a problem with the car rather than the nozzle of the pumps as have tried about four differing brands and all the same.
  2. Never had any great problems filling up with fuel, however the last twice I have filled up with fuel the nozzle keeps cutting out after about 10P . Needless to say takes for ever to fill up. Thinking it was the flap in the filler hose I took a strong piece of wire with me today to try and push it down but didn't make any difference. Any ideas why it should suddenly misbehave? Getting ready to take the tank filler hose off and investigate. Thanks, Paul.
  3. Scuttle still available. In case anyone else is interested I have passed on the scuttle as sending car off to arch to be reskinned over the winter.
  4. My son is about to sell his black KA, very low genuine mileage11 months MOT, think it is 2004 and cheap. Based in Wilts. Regards Paul.
  5. Geoff going east along the High Street
  6. Hi Ian, "manningpaul@talk21.com" should do the trick. If we go ahead do you still venture down the A303? regards Paul.
  7. I would like the scuttle if still available please. Regards Paul.
  8. My old Series 2 had mirrors on the top of the flared wings. They were in a tapered housing which made them quite aerodynamic and not look out of place, Have to admit they weren't great as they were too small really .
  9. Hi, Please can I have the Accu Gauge if still available. Many thanks, Paul.
  10. First of all an orange with black stripe filling up at the petrol station next to the Canal. Then a few minutes later 4 or 5 stuck in traffic coming into town on the London Road near Police HQ, all foreign registrations as far as I could see. On your way from the 60th to Poole for the Ferry??
  11. Hi Phil, Yes it was me, rang in the evening maybe around 8 ish. Thought I had left a voicemail. Will try again this week.
  12. Hi Paul, Another one here with a standard bar that came off a 2000 Seven, might be easier to collect/meet up. Could do with re powder coating so FOC. Regards Paul.
  13. Hi Phil, I will take whatever is left please, what sort of timescale for collection? Many thanks Paul.
  14. Flashed you from a tatty old Sprinter just by the College. I was on my way to work, you were off for a blat
  15. Yes please, first dibs? Regards Paul.
  16. Dibs on the half hood please. Sorry posted on the wrong advert!! Regards Paul.
  17. Yes please, happy to drive all the way to Christian Malford to pick it up !!
  18. I did a swap over to EU3 and from what I can remember we had to change the engine wiring loom, immobiliser etc. and also offside engine mount, but the latter was because it was a VVC, other than that a fairly straightforward job. regards Paul.
  19. Another option would be to speak to Protech Shocks, just down the road from us in Melksham. Lots of choice over length, spring rates, double adjustables etc. They did a sterling job for me even getting the right colour anodised if I was prepared to wait a little. Protech Shocks 01225 705553 or www.protechshocks.co.uk Good luck whatever you decide.

    which car

    Always think that the 1.4 is generally under-rated Seven. They are little fliers when revved (anything above 5,000rpm) and generally can make good progress apart from a lack of torque. Both the ones I had ran 5 speed boxes and were fine although I understand the six speed was developed for the 1.4. Good on track with sticky tyres and an apollo. Have you considered upgrading your current car or is there a particular reason that you want to change? regards Paul.
