if you drive it, it will be knackered in thirty seconds flat - leave the poor girl's car alone

lol, that is very very tempting but I got the car to pass with just a thorough carb stripdown and degrease - can't really justify spending more money on a car which is a daily tbh...

whats the problem with the manufacturer selling it.....

Hi guys, My car bombed the emissions test for the MOT but is otherwise fine (I knew the emissions would fail as the carb is knackered) - so I was wondering if anyone has a carb for a 360 gle lying around in decent working condition? - particularly great would be if anyone had one and was going to th...

Well, my road rally prepped (but currently broken ) 106 rallye is insured with audens and they were a bargain... much better than richard eggar, or cci

I've been to the somerset stages twice now, and although most of it is definitely much smoother than say the rallye sunseeker, it is still very rough on a car. I would definitely get out and do a road rally that uses some whites, as that will highlight potential problems before any money is spent.

you mentioned you do some motorsport garth In which case david auden insurance all the way, I have my 106 rallye with them mods fully declared (and I mean everything right down to where I've run the brake lines!!!!) the policy costs me £350 and I'm 21... the only thing is mileage, as I'm on about 30...

I know I sure as hell wouldn't be babying the car round for a finish... the red mist appears long before then :twisted: also, paying to do up a car etc etc for o...

I'll be entering the Somerset Stage of the BTRDA this years entry costs for a car up to 2l non WRC spec was £400 minimum. for the whole 2 days inc the insurance and management vehicle( crew-mechanics etc) Car needs logbooking - slowly working on that tr...

your b230fk will be a low boost pressure variant of the b230 and has a td04-13c turbo on it iirc, the boost ought to be at 4psi stock and you should be able to carefully raise that to 12psi-ish as the block is exactly the same (and most other bits I think, haven't looked into turbos engines for a wh...

I've not looked into engine swaps tbh - just know that the valver swap is very straightforward, I just wanted to give the brief reminder that from experience, lots of little expenses add up in the end and you realise that it is often actually cheaper to do the bigger upgrade that you thought you cou...
