Yarp, great fun there.

A different start to last years trip- well, nearly
Nige replied to Ian Comerford's topic in Euro Road Trips and Tours
Loose battery terminals or earth? -
http://www.peter-burgess.com/page28.html Is reasonably local and knows what jetting is required on a carb from 100 paces. Certainly worth a call.

Is it not just thinners then?
-
Isn't it the same as gunwash/thinners? I know 5l of Tetrosyl standard thinners per fill up was a thing done in the Saab scene. But they have turbos and modern i.e. more intelligent ECUs that can adjust themselves to more potent fuels. I would have thought going beyond a half decent super unleaded that our cars fuelling systems (CIS or Motronic) wouldn't know what to do with it. So any benefit is essentially wasted? Dunno.

Strong Money for an Oak Green SC Coupe on Collecting Cars
Nige replied to Chrisox's topic in Impact Bumper Cars
Coupe with mild hot rod looks V Targa and possibly colour. -
That Turbo in kiln red with olive interior, yes please.
-
I must be bored or have too much time on my hands, or both. This could be the same vehicle in a past life, same reg, colour and the posters comment seems apt.

That's the front crossmember, they're steel on early cars. Though I think by 75 they'd moved to ali, so something ain't right.

Dunno, the shell looks well f*cked, even the dash has been splatter weld repaired. Unknown engine is another £8k, doesn't include wheels, interior or any exterior panels. So £13k for a V5. None period correct steering wheel looks to be about the best thing.😁

Put nearly 100,000 miles (total mileage 160k) on mine over 18 years and majority of that with Millers 10w40 semi. It is getting a bit tired now though, but I don't think that's the oil at fault.

Have a great time Ian, was going to call in at yours the other day as we visited Belvoir. We didn't have time in the end, but I guess you wouldn't have been in anyway. -
I just bang in the cheapest E5 at most convenient located station to wherever I am. If not, then regular unleaded/E10 but just enough to get me home or until I can fill up with E5. I use mine quite a bit, so any E10 will just get used up pretty quickly. I've never been brand loyal to petrol. KitD, I think you need to question whether you need the car or not if you've only done 1800 in 10 years!😃

My car was on TV and driven by wobbly head Quentin Wilson, does that qualify for the 50% increase? I'm sure he stole my sunglasses too. Yep, these are/were my sunglasses.
