Rather stunningly, I've just got home from work to find a towbar has been delivered! It's nothing like the picture, but it looks really strong. I'll add a picture of it in the morning, when the noise of bolting it together won't wake folk up. Looks like a doddle to fit too, though it seems 3 holes n...

As it happens I'm breaking a cavalier GSi (proper redtop) at the moment, which shares the majority of its underpinnings with the calibra. It looks like it's going to be on the drive for a while yet due to lack of interest, but if you wreck your engine, box, suspension or whatever, let me know and i'...

Well, I ended up buying this one: click me It looks fairly beasty, and I'll make sure it's VERY securely attached. It, a ball and an electics kit came to a smidge over £60 delivered. I'd have prefer to come and get the genuine volvo one from you pete, but it's the story of my life, missing out on th...

Whereabouts on the block is the engine number? I had a look the other day and found a big K sitting on its own so I assumed that had to mean something. The wheel thing was quite scary, but it never looked like i was going off the road. I didn't even realise that's what had happened til I got the whe...

I can't get my mobile phone videos to work on photobucket, so i've tried youtube: video here This is of my friend in cambridge, and probably what weakened my wheel. I thought it'd be safe to let him have a go, as he works in a garage that prepares rallycross cars, and races every other weekend. Clea...

Yeah, every time I want to go somewhere I find someone's put a massive distance in the way. However, I may well be on my way down to kent this weekend (or more likely next weekend), so if I'm already on the motorway it wouldn't be a problem to meet you somewhere. Not overly keen on trying to navigat...

I've got a genuine Volvo hatchback towbar on one of my cars that you could be yours, the only problem being the distance. I'd imagine like Steve said, a saloon one would just stick out further, as the mounting points are the same, there's just more overhang on the boot. A saloon bumper is the same,...

Is this any good to me? click
It doesn't have a ball, I assume I can buy those seperately...? But what will I do about electrics? I wouldn't know where to start.

Well it turns out the X1/9 has no seats. That might look a bit funny when the AA man turns up. So unless anyone has a spare pair of 70s fiat seats, I'm stuck with the towbar search. :( This is the only hatchback bar I could find, and the bloke hasn't even bothered to prove it exists: click me I just...

I may indeed give that a try. I've got the relay cover that means they take me home so it could be possible. A friend of mine pulled this stunt when he got his second nissan S13. He got the train down to reading or somewhere far south, and took the knackered ECU from his first S13, fitted it and cal...

Cool, i'll get a saloon one then. I'll just have to be careful parking. Then again, my last car was an audi 100, so called because it was 100 feet long and a total bitch to park. :) Does anyone know exactly how much longer the saloon is? Or where i can get a cheap car trailer between here (sunderlan...
