Re: 2.8 Clutch Cable Clip

Sorry for the slow reply, just got back from a car show
I've just had a closer look tonight, I have two white plastic clips.
The top one clips the clutch cable to the brake pipe
and the bottom one clips it straight to the car body.
They both are push fit.

Re: NEC TICKET PRICES

It is an expensive day out I go every other year now, you can save £5.50 on a single adult ticket

Re: Millers Oils VSPe Additive

This tank safe sounds interesting stuff! does it prolong the life of petrol
while your Capri is in storage? I've been looking for an additive that you can add to the petrol
to stop it going off while my capri is laid up over winter and would also mix with Millers vspe

Re: Unregistered 280

I saw the unregistered 280 at cci nationals some years ago. I have photos of it somewhere.
The owner used a trailer to take it there, I remember seeing that it had the TT conversion.

Re: Is a Brooklands worth the premium over a 2.8 Injection Special?

Hi, Are you buying to use the car for your own enjoyment, or with an eye on future resale value? If it's the latter, my thoughts are that the 280 will represent a better long term investment when compared to the regular 2.8 Special. If you are buying with the intention of using the car, why pay a c...
