Yes, the time has come to say good bye with a view to an upgrade....
Here's the Pistonheads link
But for £30450 you can have:
CSR260 (2006) with around 17000 miles
263 horses (remapped at the 2 Steves) and oodles of torque
Dodge Viper Blues with Silver stripe
Lowered floors
Standard (classic) dash
Leather seats
And see the add for the rest..
Just a year old and kept inside apart from 4 or 5 nights so still quite shiny. It's the Clubman 100-0140 with the following:
Single Axle
Datatag
Rear Stands
Spare Wheel
Heavy Duty Jockey Wheel
Winch
Hitch Lock
Straps
Suitable for SV / CSR
£1500
They do look different, I'm guessing the CSR one will be slightly longer so that the exhaust then reaches the rear mounting point which will be further away than on the S3 chassis. Don';t understand why the R500 one is more expensive though.
I have a spare one of these here
I'll even throw in the guard
£200 plus postage at cost as I have no idea how much that might be. Could deliver / meet to a reasonable distance from Somerset
Big thanks. Shame the M42 was shut on the way home however, all I need now is a LSD, some sticky tyres and class 5 is mine (oh and maybe a shed load more tuition and skill)
And nice to meet some new people.
MOT today and an advisory was a bit of play in the actual steering rack. I had only recently noticed this and assumed the QR boss was worn but didn't check. Do these things really wear out?
Pootling along the A303 after a fantastic Wight Blat and see oil pressure is zero ☹️
Pull off (very quickly) and check dipstick and all ok so continue. Then dial is off the scale and then randomly showing all sorts of values.
Is this a dead sensor thingy? (It's a 2.3 Duratec)
