Hi,
I need a rear light cluster (or just the reversing light lens) near side, a plastic blanking plate thingy, next to the handbrake and either a complete lowering kit (2-3") or just the blocks or front springs/dampers.
I'm also on the look out for a light blue nearside rear door, in good condition, as some kind soul has driven into mine
Cheers,
Malc

You might want to look on ebay, as there are a couple cars being broken at the moment. Also you could try contacting Foggy on these forums as he's going to be breaking a car soon. Have a look in the calendar section

Thanks MJ, I've sent a message to one of the cars on Ebay, in North london, but haven't got a reply yet.

Almost forgot, I need a windscreen as well.

I might have a free one for you in Bristol - you'll have to collect - if you're interested let me know and I'll chase it

Thanks Ronnie, that's a very kind offer

Unfortunately, with a 6 month old daughter, I barely have time to work on my car, let alone travel to Bristol
Cheers anyway.
p.s I did my bike test in Bristol, many years ago, in a place I think was called Hambrook?

Will a 360 screen fit my 340?

Yeah - I know how you feel! Yes, the 360 screen will fit the 340 just fine

I've got the screen sorted, so now just require a N/S rear light cluster and a N/S front bumper bolt cover.
Thanks, Malc.

Doesn't Steve have a N/S rear light cluster for sale?

Yes he does, but it's a new one at £40, and as I only paid £150 for the car, a second hand one will do

I see your point. The purchase price will always be the lowest cost in "300 motoring". Fill 'er up twice and you've already doubled your outlay
Brand new lights (front and rear) do improve things safety-wise though. They make the car look a bit newer too ...
