  3. Getting it done on Friday. Anyone remember off hand what DVA recommends as the cam timing for my vernier pulleys. 1.8k, lightly ported head.
  4. I hate brake fluid, ever since I spilled a bit down the side of my Austin Healey Sprite 20 years ago.
  5. Lack of time means I sadly rarely use my Seven. 94 miles in last two years, this years tax disc is still on my desk. I still do an oil and filter change every year, but thinking about the other big service items - the cam belt and brake fluid have not been replaced in about 8 years. Car had done about 1000 miles in that time. I probably know the answer to this, but should either or both be changed? Car is 1800 K series, dry sump. Edited by - pelico on 22 Aug 2014 12:54:46
  6. Last track day I was on I ended up loaning my whole trailer. ...and Mav was involved 😬

    Understeer help

    Driving style: Possibly entering the corner too quick. On one of the Motorsports events training days I was advised to break hard to enter slowish, go for a late apex, feel the front wheels grip and then bleed the power in. Mind you I am a rubbish driver 😬 The more talented might trail brake at bit

    One Wife

    Has she been serviced recently?
  11. Any blatchat babies on the way ? I am selling a Stokke Cot and Changing table. These are hugely desirable and the Lotus Seven of nursery accessories. They are both multi-purpose The cot changes from: A newborn crib to.. An infants cot to.. A childs bed to.. A small sofa See here The changing table changes from: A changing table to Shelf unit to.. A desk See here These appear to be going on Gumtree etc for £300+ each second hand. I would be happy to pass them on to a club member for £100 each. Note: The cot does not come with the mattresses and the table is without the padded cushion. Mrs Pelico tells me a new baby would want new ones. These are available from any Stokke dealer. See detailed photos: here Edited by - pelico on 22 Nov 2013 10:53:02
  12. Two firm offers last night on email, so am taking 1st dibs using the email time-stamps as per our normal practice here. If any consolation I have a set of bench seats and a tatty but very useable low back original Tillet cart seat if that is of any use to anyone. P
  13. Pre S-type leather seats for sale. Both with adjustable runners which include the mounting points that bolt to the chassis rails rather than the floor. This is a much better solution than the current seats. Seats are in Cheshire near J16/17 M6. Probably too large to post. £100 http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2850/10407455716_8dc394cd41.jpg
  14. Orange and sat outside the Mazda garage. Is it broken?

    Seats Wanted

    I have a pair of leather S3 seats I am not using. The 'pre s-types' Where are you based?
  16. Sat outside reception now. Do you work here ?

    Noisy exhaust

    Turn up at a track day, when you are not planning to attend if you see what I mean. The organisers are normally happy to test you.
  18. No worries Nick. Peter
  19. Hmmm. This could be the time to try an aeroscreen. Nick, don't suppose this comes with all the fittings and the interior retaining channels 😬
