  1. Being towed on a trailer through Caterham and onto the southbound byspass. I was in the Volvo in front of you waving August's Lowflying
  2. My trusty V70 has started disgorging long lengths of hair to rival Rapunzel from the exhaust tailpipe. I know it's wadding and glass-fibre type material but opinions vary as to whether it's the back-box (cheap), middle box (more expensive) or cat (please no!). Anyone else had this one theirs or similar?
  3. Due to lack of use reluctant decision to look at parting with my cherished Seven. 1.6 K-Series Supersport. 5 speed, c.135bhp. Viper blue metallic with silver stripe and noseband. Excellent condition inside and out. Full weather gear, heater, starter button, 4-point harnesses, leather seats, 5 x 14" minilites with ZV3 tyres, quick-release momo wheel, polished exhaust. 33,500 miles. Caterham built. Owned since 2004. Always garaged. No track days. Full service history. All recent servicing by Andy at 7Tech including new cambelt and alternator. £14250 ovno.
  4. Late last year my father suffered a major stroke and we've decided the time has come to move his car on as sadly he will never drive again. It's a Renault Laguna 5 door hatch 2.0T 16v (165BHP), 6 speed manual in Dynamique Techno trim. Dark metallic wine red. Air-con, alloys, keyless ignition, sat nav, CD player, electric everything all in working order. Very good condition. 76,500 miles. Bought in 2003 from a main dealer as a pre-registered vehicle (with delivery mileage of 146 miles) so effectively one-owner. Always garaged, fettled and with full & comprehensive service history. MOT until end of May. VED Band J (196g/km). Link to Parkers: http://www.parkers.co.uk/renault/laguna/hatchback-2001/20t-16v-dynamique-5d-(03)/specs/ It does have a few cosmetic scratches and blemishes but the bodywork and interior are very good. Priced to sell £475 ono which considering it's spec, history and overall condition seems a bargain against similar models on eBay. Located in Caterham, Surrey. I can supply further details by email.

  7. On behalf of a friend with a classic Seven. Does any have or know who has coolant hoses for this vehicle? Caterham and Redline do not have any. If not available, what hoses would be suitable? Thanks.
  8. You should have a mail although there seems to be an issue with the secure messaging function at the moment.
  9. Agree above "Closer inspection revealed water down a couple of plug holes after removing the coil packs - blew it out, refitted coil packs, and back to normal." especially if EU3 and used recently in heavy rain.

  11. Have a Caterham composite seat from a well known site to possibly replace my S3 leather driver's seat. http://caterhamparts.co.uk/product.php?id_product=4498 The fixing is going to be completely different and want it to be adjustable rather than fixed to floor. Neither Caterham or Demon Tweeks have a fixing kit separately. What exactly do I need and where to source? Perhaps I'll put an item in Wanted once I know the parts I really need. Also, does anyone know how much lower I'll be vs the leather seats? I'm hoping for at least 2cm. Thanks
  12. 2nd dibs please if that doesn't proceed
  13. Advertised here on behalf of a long-standing & close friend. Ford Fiesta Zetec 1.25 (petrol) 3 Door Hatchback April 2010 Mileage 40,700 Metallic light blue Full service history....service book completed/stamped One previous owner. Owned since 2011 as a second car alongside his other classic Ford. New MOT from 8th April 2016 Oil & filter change April 2016 Brake pads & shoes checked April 2016 Brake fluid, air filter & pollen filter changed 2015. New tyres all round within the last year Interior excellent (like new!). Even just had a a new boot carpet fitted March 2016 to cover original as latter has a couple of stains. £4,900.00 o.n.o. The seller is fastidious over the upkeep and appearance of his cars and hope the selection of photos do it justice. If you require any more information or his contact details, please let me know.
  14. 1st dibs on these please. Can you confirm the tyre sizes? Thanks
  15. Yes please. First dibs on this. I'll send mail shortly. Many thanks.
  16. I took my headrest out from the driver's seat at Dunsfold at the weekend and they spring clip inside the seat has fallen down inside the seat back. I've sourced a replacement clip and press stud but can't see how to fit it without dismantling the seat (phone call to Caterham even suggested it may be easier to buy a new seat!). Anyone else done this as it looks fiddly but surely a part that costs pence can't be the cause to write-off what is otherwise a perfect seat?
  17. Attractive, antique pine, drop-side cot bed 3 height matress adustment. Teething rail. Suitable 3 months - 5 years. It's in very good condition with only light use as we lived abroad so was only used when we visited the UK. We'll include a mattress; opinion is best to have new for new-borns but considering it's also had very light use it may be of interest. Measurements are L 50", W 25", H 35" at the side with a maximum height of 42" at the gabled ends. From smoke/pet free home. £60 ono. Collection or local delivery only. Mid-Sussex area.
  18. 3 positon seat and footrest. Removable, wipe-clean pvc padded seat. 5-point harness. Removeable food tray enabling seat to be positioned at dining table. Lower storage tray. Folds flat.
