Hi Danny,
I hope you got my message the other week for looking into these wings for me? But thank you for checking into these for me!!! I really need to get some pics up here of the breakfast meets I've been going to over the last year...
Cheers again Danny, all the best,
John...

Re: 26th August - Ace Cafe Capri Day 2023
I'm happy to meet up at South Mimms in the morning, if any one wants to convoy in again. I'll park down the far end as usual.
I'll check this thread in the morning to see if there are any takers. I would be aiming to set off from South Mimms at 10:30hrs. If not, I'll see you all there, cheers....

Refurb wheels & new tyres...
Hi all, Been a while so decided to give a quick up date on some stuff I've been upto. So I decided a while ago to hunt some 205/50X15 tyres down for the 15" rims I'm running, not that there was anything wrong with the recomended 195/50X15's I had fitted, but having met a chap (sorry if you're r...

Re: A few questions for the floor.
Hi Mark, I know it's not really what you asked. But the best mod I did to mine was the front Strut support across the engine. We have speed humps all round here, a LOT of them and the weight of the V6 it always felt wallowy (not sure if that's even a word) at the front when going over these. As soon...

Re: refurb steering rack bad experience
Hi Mark, Sorry, a bit late to the party on this one.... I had exactly the same problem with a Power steering rack from them, never returned to straight ahead as soon as it was fitted.
