  1. This wednesday with club £200 sound fair
  2. Caterham 1.8K Super Sport/R300 - £11,995SVA’d 2008 (New Chassis & Suspension) – However carries a K plate 1992 so NO Catalytic converter and lenient emissions for the MOT. As seen in Low Flying March 2010 – 4 page article I built the car over two years with donor parts coming from a 1.4K super sport and the help of Ben Rocky (Classic Car Workshop) of Parham, Sussex. I have receipts, along with pictures at each stage of the build, in the last two years the car has only covered 750 miles, I am not getting the use from it. It was built as a fast road car with occasional track day, power is in the region of 150 bhp, may be more, it certainly gives the R300 boys a tough time. 1.8K series Engine – VVC head (big valves) with DVA blanking kit & Piper Cams, Verniers, New Cam belt. 6 Speed Caterham box, refreshed, new drive shaft fitted. LSD AP Suretrac, rebuilt by Road & Race – new ratio 3.62 Wide Track Adjustable Bilstein Suspension Apollo Tank Stainless 4 in 1 exhaust R300 Alloy Radiator Key Less – Alarm – Red starter button Tillet Drivers seat – Leather passenger seat New scuttle with fly screen Spare 1400 Engine Spare Windscreen 13’’ Wheels with Toyo 888’s Full roll cage. Black wings and nose, polished body. I welcome any inspection, this car in my view is immaculate. Pictures are on Flickr – Search by profile – Miles20050

  5. Sorry - After much discussion in Chitchat the price best suggested was £13,995

  7. I agree go faster - Sod it, I will just keep going until blows, then it will give me a good excuse to rebuild, said this last year
  8. Belts are new and not rubbing Not tried taking out of gear at 40 to 50 suppose I will have to try
  9. Car is a 1.8K series - hydraulic lifters, VVC head Oil pressure fine, engine is strong, pulls really well. On tick over engine is very quiet. However not always but at 40 to 50 miles per hour your can hear a distinct ticking noise this was its first outing for over 5 months, engine bedding in??? Any ideas??
  10. Looking to upgrade front brakes - Caterham direct want £600 + which is pretty salty. I have found Peter Lloyd Rallying that do a kit for £377 265mm Discs, pads, pipes etc - seems fair - any other suggestions?
  11. Thanks for the replys I will check what I have bought. Kind regards Miles
  12. Sure it has been asked before. Just bought some plastic front cycle wings - very light but strong. Do I need to bolt on or can I just rely on sikaflex - put this way once you have it on your hands it is impossible to get off.

    Longacre Mirror

    Hi James Thanks for the reply _ worth a try then, better than an exhaust u clamp
  14. Does anyone use these mirrors If so what is your opinion - I have no screen - do they look odd _ ie too big for the car Do you need wing mirrors as well? Cheers Miles
  15. I wuill send you a photograph now
  16. Bought Jan 2010 - Only used a couple of times As I do track days I lost two windscreens so ditched it Fits S3 with Roadsport full roll cage Is £120 + postage fair? I do have a picture I can email - no idea how to attach
  17. No if you have the steering wheel
  18. Did the same as Miltec Insurance company happy - SVA were happy No nasty key barrel to hurt your knee on - just had a safty toggle switch on dash - Job Done
  19. I went down the route of Road & Race changing the diff ratio to 3.62 (Suretrac LSD) As most of my time is on the track with the 3.92 ratio, the 1st gear was pointless and on the Brands GP circuit I was eaten on the straight. I have a 1.8 with VVC head (ported) - the engine produces about 150 bhp and is very comparable to pulling power to a more powerful R300 now the ratio has been changed. I would not go back - but thats my opinion
  20. Hi Geoff I have sent you a mail as well - Please book a place for me for Brands Hatch Many thanks Miles
